and powerful bonuses to your Spells.Spells are skills that use raw magic to destroy your enemies. Attacks are not Spells.

Spells have their own base damage, cast speed and Critical Hit chance determined by the skill. They do not benefit from a weapon's inherent damage, attack speed or Critical Hit chance.

A focus (plural foci) is an item class of intelligence-aligned off-hand equipment that provides energy shield and can roll caster modifiers. Foci are not considered shields[1]. Unlike shields, they do not have a chance to block.
