Updated Invocation Descriptions:
Recovery: You regenerate mana twice as fast and spells have a 5% reduced mana cost. Out of combat regen bonus is not effected.
Empower: Adds 25% plus 10% per additional non-hybrid casting class to HP spell effects at the cost of 20% more mana.
Inversion: Shifts two-thirds of spell cast time into the global recovery time and 20% of the mana cost into endurance cost.
Spellblade: Treats the first spell-gem slot as a proc that consumes both mana and endurance on activation. 40% of the spells mana cost is paid as mana and endurance. The spell must have a reuse time less than or equal to its cast time.
Overchannel: Cast spells have a -150 resist adjust plus another -15 for every non-hybrid caster class at a cost of 20% of the mana cost in endurance.
Inviolable: Cast spells are uninterruptible at the cost of 100% more mana and the same amount as endurance.
Divine: Spending mana will heal the group member with the lowest hp percentage by that amount. For every additional wisdom class, this will repeat with a heal for 33% of the mana spent.
