Hello all,

Long time player, first time poster. Just now learning all the math that goes into the game. Following Whirlin's guide and another beginning wizard creation guide. Both of these guides cite that spell research should cost 0/8 in Wiz, MnE, and MjE, however during my training they have all cost 0/16. Anyone able to help me with why this might be?

Also I'm open to any suggestions on how to further train as I progress towards 20.
