The Protection skill is a class magic skill. The magic skill determines what spells you can learn from the Protection line of magic.

The following playable classes get the protection skill:

• Crusader
• Paladin
• Protector

There are generally two categories of magic spells:

• Combat castable
• Out of combat castable

Spells in this magic line fall into both categories as it contains a varied range of shield and nulify spells.

To learn more spells you need to find spell scrolls or visit a Protection spell trainer who can teach you more spells.

Casting a nulify or shield spell
You can cast such spells in combat in two different ways.

• Click the cast defensive spell button
• Click the cast readied defensive spell button

To cast a readied spell you must have first readied the spell, to do this go to the Abilities > Ready Spells screen and choose the spells you wish to ready.

To cast any spell in combat you need two main things:

• Intelligence, this determines which spells you can cast regardless of how much mana you have.
• Mana, mana is consumed when you cast spells you can only cast a spell if you have enough mana to do so.

After casting a spell you will gain a purple skill gain.

Casting a spell outside of combat
You can cast shield spells outside of combat by going to the Abilities > Spellbook screen.

Use the icons at the top of the screen to choose which spell line you wish to cast spells from. 

Selecting a spell by clicking on it will show several buttons on the right of the screen including:

• Cast on me, lets you cast the spell on yourself.
• Other, lets you choose who to cast the spell on if the spell can be cast on more than just you.

After casting a spell from your spellbook you will gain a purple skill gain.
