Just one last comment that many people have seemed to have missed.... CHA
effect many of the charm based spells yes that is true, the thing you all
are forgeting is that many of enchanter spells even if not named CHARM spell
are charm based, meaning that CHARISMA does have an effect on them, which
spells fall under this catagory I am not sure but I have talked to a few GM
and they have stated that many of our spells fall under this catagory.

>"WISDOM (Mana for Priests, Resistance to Mind Spells, Tertiary Skill Check)
>WIS is the mana determinant for the priestly casters, and their derived

>latter two. This attribute also affects your character's resistance against

>succeed on a roll one has already failed via skill check.

>INTELLIGENCE (Mana for Mages, Skill Gain)
>INT is the mana determinant for the non-priestly casters (Wizard,
Enchanter,

>determines how quickly one will gain skills. As such, it is important to
all
>classes, but is especially so for the four non-priestly casters.

some

Also,

a
