Does the same also apply to TW/spells produced from magic items for range and damages (I know it does on a ley line for Splugorth TW weapons)?


Spells still receive ley line/nexus bonus's yes. Only TW items that specify they receive bonus's do so.

Greetings and Salutations. In RUE, if you look on page 186 ( if your book has the errata included, otherwise you'll have to look on the cutting room floor here http://www.palladiumbooks.com/images/Do ... Eratta.pdf ) it says ...

Increase the range and duration of a spell by 50% when on or within 2 miles/3.2 km of a ley line.

That's the only official passage regarding spell affect I'm aware of within RUE. I'm afraid I can't answer much in regards to the TW question.

Anyways, hope that helps (at least a little). Thank you for your your time and patience, please have a nice day. Farewell and safe journeys for now.
