Can anyone tyhat is level 80 rdm or maybe 78 or something show that even with ton more skill due to the level increases that the cap is still 300?

on my sch my bar at 300 and 310 still gives 100 bars

my phalanx override eachother at 300 and 310 skills but under 300 fails to take effect.

with the new level caps i am wondering how much phalanx II is effected and how it is effected by this cap.

this cap makes phalanx II take no more then 28 damage on 5/5 merits, the same with phalanx

caps like this and others is why i think this game really can not handle level caps past 75, SE really needs to revamp the coding for stuff like this.

I haven't had to level enhancing magic in years, Have there been in new tricks found to help level it faster? Or is the best way still the old school Bar Spell spam?

I'm no main Rdm, but I know that one of the best ways (that I know of) for lvling up your Enhancing Magic is to go into Besieged and spam Protect/Shell on one of the NPCs. Usually the generals will be given higher tier buffs, which will prevent your own, but usually the generic NPCs (like the Rats/Soldiers/Volunteers) don't have any buffs. So just find one of those and spam those spells over and over, it's muuuuuuuuuuch faster than spaming Bar spells.

You can also use this technique for lvling up your other magic skills like Healing too, while using the mobs for lvling up Ele/Dark/etc.

I second this method. I have 2 characters with lvl 75rdm that had capped enhancing. First one I did the old school way (since no besieged occurred) and it took me roughly 8 hours non-stop casting of enhancing spells to go from 256 to 266 for lvl 77 cap. Went in besieged with my other character after getting it to 76rdm, capped enhancing by finding an npc and just spamming pro/shell I much much faster.


Edit: Seems that Phal II has same cap as Phal I and no longer increases beyond the 300mark from what I can see. This just made Phalanx II totally worthless via merits when you can just pop on /sch and cast it on the entire PT and get the same effect from phalanx now. I'm a little dissapointed.
