Players can craft a Wizard's Grimoire using the Inscription skill under the "Books and Tomes" category.

Wizard's Grimoires function similarly to the Summoner's Tome and Weapon and Parry Codices in that they are Blessed PvM items. Players must double-click the item to access their Wizardry Profile, which is permanently stored per character. If a player loses their Wizard's Grimoire, they can simply acquire a new one without losing progress.

To benefit from the Wizard's Grimoire, players must have at least 80 Magery skill and at least 80 Meditation or 80 Eval Int skill.

The Wizard's Grimoire only upgrades spells cast by the player, and not by their summons or tamed pets.

Wizardry Experience

When characters meet the skill requirements and have a Wizard's Grimoire, they earn Wizardry Experience by killing creatures.

Each time a player earns enough experience, they unlock a Wizardry Point to spend in their Wizardry Profile. Players can see their current experience progress at the bottom center of the Grimoire menu, and the total points earned/spent on the bottom left.

For more detailed information, see Experience Gain.

Wizardry Points

The first Wizardry Point requires 1000 Experience to unlock. Each subsequent point requires 1000 more Experience than the previous point.

Players can earn a maximum of 50 Wizardry Points.

Spell Upgrades

The core of the Wizardry system revolves around spending Wizardry Points to upgrade spells.

There are 16 different spells that can be upgraded, each up to a maximum of Tier 3. Clicking the Info button next to a spell displays the benefits of upgrading it. The effects at each Spell Tier are listed in parentheses and separated by commas.

Upgrading a spell is done by clicking the "Spend Points to Raise Tier" button. The total points spent per spell are displayed below each spell, while the total points spent across all spells is displayed in the bottom left corner.

Upgrade Point Costs

Each spell has a different Point Cost to upgrade its Tier, categorized as Low, Medium, or High Impact.

Spell Impact Tier Points Total Spent
Low 1 1
2 2 3
3 3 6
Medium 1 2
2 3 5
3 4 9
High 1 3
2 4 7
3 5 12

Resetting Spent Points

Players can reset their spent points once every 5 minutes.

Clicking the "Reset Spent Points" button (twice) refunds all allocated points, allowing players to reassign them as needed. Any active buffs or bonuses gained from the Grimoire will be canceled upon resetting.

Spell Tier Upgrades

Upgrading a spell grants additional bonuses, but these benefits only apply when the player is not flagged in PvP. If casting a beneficial spell on another player, neither player can be PvP-flagged for the upgrade to take effect.

Spell bonuses are additive to the spell's default effects. For example:

  • Mana Vampire will still reduce the target’s Magic Resist in addition to its Wizardry Mana Refund effect.
  • Curse / Mass Curse will still apply stat debuffs while benefiting from Wizardry upgrades.
