When it comes to leveling, is enchanting or (insert non-damage spell here)a viable alternative to dealing damage? |

Viable is a big word, it definitely has its uses, but combat via damage spells will be much faster for a caster. Some people chose to level the regular way (shooting stuff with your spells) to a certain level, maybe master or champion, and then get the last few levels off of just doing stuff... Enchanting, resurrecting, gating, etc. A viable approach, albeit slower than the alternative. |

I found it very slow, but possible. Mana is a big factor, so is charisma. Its also helpful to take frequent breaks from enchanting so I wouldn't hit the non-combat spell experience ceiling and waste the time spent using enchant to level. |

There are caps on how much exp per day you can gain from spellcraft, but you do gain it. Viable? Comparable? Not really. |

It can be done, but it's kind of really slow. The thing is, there's a cap to the amount of XP you can earn per day via non-damage spells. |

Question on my part: Is there a cap number of times in one sitting that you can cast a spell and get xp? For example, enchanting for hours and hours without ceasing (well, sleeping is allowed). |

Yes. If you spend hours and hours, some of them are pretty much not going to count. |

Why is that? If the xp ratio is so bad, why would there be a cap for xp? |

I don't think it's THAT bad. The cap is the main reason it's not done often. |

How much is the cap? |
