New Ice Spells in Dyval

Unread post by Talavar »

I have a question regarding one of the new ice spells presented in Dyval: for Ice Sword, the damage is listed as 2d6+1 MD/level. Now, do you think that would mean a level 6 caster of this spell would do 2d6+6 MD or 12d6+6 MD. I lean towards the former (the latter is an incredibly powerful weapon with a few levels), but it's quite a big difference, and there's no clarifying punctuation as there are with some similar scaling spells, like the damage of Power Bolt.
