Should a priest cast resurrection in an area they have "only just discovered" to get the most XP from it? Etc.

I highly doubt that makes a difference. And I highly doubt anyone can say either way for sure. That would be painstaking testing!

I am pretty sure noncombat spells are not affected by familiarly. Because you can sit in an area you recently discovered, spam enchant armor and not have familiarty change.

A priest should spam spear of faith, and harm to plevel. Well, harm only if you intend to do PK later on. Syn pretty much GMed her priest on spear of xp thievery.

I wouldn't even bother taking this into consideration considering the xp cap on non-combat spells is so low that it is not worthwhile to try to level off of non-combat spells.

Does it affect the xps though? I have no clue, and this is something I have absolutely no interest in figuring out. I would assume not, but whether I am right or wrong makes absolutely no difference to me. I'm of the opinion that if you are trying to level in such a manner, that you are just doing it wrong.

Wasn't an inquiry that I would apply to a leveling schema. Just curious if it makes a difference. I've seen plenty of ticks earned from resurrection - or perhaps the spell was just a catalyst.
