Torchlight/Spells

Spells are equip-able skills that have their own inventory tab for both the character and pet. They look like parchment with a symbol printed on it.

Every character has four slots where spells can be equipped. Pets can equip two. To equip a spell, drag and drop it on an open spell slot.

After equipping a spell, you can assign it to a hotkey by clicking on the icon or open slot area for that hotkey, and then on the spell's icon.

If you fill up all of your available slots, you must un-learn a spell before equipping a new one. Un-learned spells are destroyed.

Spells fall into three magic categories: Charm, Defensive, and Offensive. Each category is identified by color: green for Charm, blue for Defensive, and red for Offensive. This color can be found on the top left and bottom right corners of the spell icon.

Some spells have ranks that improve when you upgrade your spell mastery skills. Improving the rank of a spell increases its effectiveness (typically duration, cooldown, mana cost, and/or effect).
