Currently going 9-21-0, but my question is on Archaic Knowledge. Does this apply for mord... I know he has magic damage, but its really not spells per say... so does putting the point in this a waste for him? 15 % magic penetration is nice, but not worth the point if he really doesnt have "spells". Can anyone clarify?

Thanks

See above.

Now can you define what you think a "spell" is?

His abilities do magic damage, more damage the better the shield. Get magic pent so you can charge your shield higher.
