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.
