so i see all of these new skills within the magic skillset. can someone explain how to train most of them? so far all i can get to move past clear is life magic, attunement and target magic.

Targeted Magic and Debilitation are considered combat skills. They are trained relative to the difficulty of the creature you're hunting, much like a weapon.

Augmentation, Utility, and Warding are non-combat, and train based on the difficulty of the spell you are casting. Cast near your personal cap to get it moving, which you can find easily these days with DISCERN. The Chaos Symboiant can be used to artificially make a spell more difficult and thus extend its learning. The harder a spell is to cast, the better it'll teach per point of attunement invested.

You should also look into the chaos symbiosis more. It's a great mana saver.
