New page

I'm having my doubts about the process described. I think I have reason to think that mocking, when it's used like this, may only target the ''last'' skill used (the one used in the last step of the ritual). So, performing the ritual and ''then'' being mocked will give fairly limited information... I think it might be better to be mocked ''during'' the ritual. That might give a chance of having different skills increase, though I'm not sure.

I think this because doing it the way that's described here with Dust Devil, I got of.area increased three times and no other skills... but I thought we knew that misc.area and def.area were used for that one, too. (Or maybe only one of those--if rituals work like spells, each step uses one skill. Dust Devil has two steps so that would imply at most two skills, I'd think. I guess that's a big "if", but I don't see any reason rituals would use a different mechanic.)

So, I'm not sure we should necessarily delete skills that we can't seem to get mocked up, unless we're really sure about it.

		+	==Curing unmockable?==
		+	After a few of us tried mocking Resurrect, Raise Dead, Restore, and even Cure Light Wounds up to absolutely no effect (even on someone with only a moderate fa.ri.cu.ta bonus (lower than bonuses for other skills we've mocked up successfully)), I'm wondering if fa.ri.cu.ta is even able to be mocked up this way. We used the same method that worked fine with other rituals... does anyone know anything about this? --[[User:Ilde\|Ilde]] 00:34, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

	::::Oh--so apparently with high enough skills, mocking raises ''all'' the skills used in the ritual, not just one of them... I'm guessing with lower skills it just picks the last one, then.
