When do you stop training in Spell Research (pures)?

[LordBacl]

Quick question for the number-cruncher-bots (i.e. people who can do math, unlike me):

At what point do I start getting no real value from continueing to train in Minor Elem and Major Elem spell ranks? I know that as an Enchanting Pure I should do Wizard Circle until capped (halfway there, baby!) but I've heard that after a certain rank I'll no longer see any real benefit from the Minor and Major spell circles? What point is that (assuming I have not been misinformed, which is possible)?

Thanks, as always, in advance!

Well training in any circle helps your CS some and if you are casting CS spells from that circle it helps it more. MnE essentially ends it's benefits (other than CS) at 74, that's when elemental targeting bonus maxes out.

Great, that's what I was looking for. Thanks!

And what about Major Elemental?

And what about Major Elemental?

Major elemental has effects on haste that mix with air lore and which I'm not to clear about.

The Haste spell appears to provide a reduction in Roundtime based on the following formula (all fractions are rounded down):
Final RT = (RT - [1 + X + Y]) * (100 - [25 + Z])%
X = Air Lore Bonus; Increases by +1 at 24 ranks, 100 ranks, and 200 ranks
Y = Major Elemental Bonus; Increases by +1 at 51 ranks and possibly 100 ranks
Z = Major Elemental Spells Known / 3
For example, with 27 MjE ranks, 24 Air Lore ranks, and a five second Roundtime:
X= 1; Y = 0; Z = 9
Final RT = (5 - [1 + 1 + 0]) * (100 - [25 + 9])%
Final RT = 3 * 66%
Final RT = 1.98; Which rounds down to a 1 second RT.
