So, I woke up my Cleric over in Test. Feeling pretty happy with the changes and the magic use. Ran across something when I was killing some goblins.

>pre horn
Since you're not feeding enough power into the spell pattern to make it coherent, you quickly work your way to the minimum required.
You begin chanting catechisms to invoke the Horn of the Black Unicorn spell.
>cast
You make a ruthless lashing gesture.
A mass of deep ebon ether erupts from thin air, coalescing into the spectral form of a shadowy black unicorn which gallops rapidly toward a large musk hog.
The tip of the black unicorn's horn pierces a small hole in the musk hog's abdomen.
The musk hog is lightly stunned!
Roundtime: 1 sec.

I'm encountering no prep time and no RT other than the 1 sec cast. I can PREP and CAST back to back, even at higher mana levels.

You're going to get a bad reputation if you go around pinching every spectral reaper you see.

> I'm encountering no prep time

TM spells begin fully prepped.

> I'm encountering no prep time

>TM spells begin fully prepped.

So for TM Spells what is the advantage to putting in a full prep time?

None, you lose nothing by targeting immediately. In fact, the new syntax encourages this. You can type "target fs at goblin" to begin prepping and targeting fire shard at a goblin, even if you hadn't already started prepping it. Or you can type "target fs" and it will prep and target at whoever you're facing. In the first example, "at" is essential.

Just to help me remember better what does fs stand for.

Ahhh the spell name. Makes a ton of sense now, alright thanks.
