My precious GE Wizard who has done everything pretty much perfect so far (just past casino). Has lost his wizarding ability for reduced spell costs!
I have no idea how it happened. I suddenly noticed that it was costing me 20pp to cast teleport instead of 11pp, I checked that there was plenty of 'knowledge' for Teleport (~2000) then noticed the problem is affecting ALL of my spells. It's not an item related thing - striped my char naked and cleaned out the inventory. And its not some nasty intrinsic, cast Revelation and saw only good things.
This is on 1.1.1.
The only thing I can think of is that I've hit some kind of overflow bug because of reading too many books (PC2 generated a bookshop which I've cleaned out many times over).
Can't be anything to do with the anti-cheating code - I've never even made a backup of the char.
Any ideas?

Just a hunch: it could have something to do with mana battery (IIRC it reduces casting cost by some 20%) or some missing piece of equipment. Can't recall for sure, though.

Maybe it has something to do with Darknight/Silvernight?

I concur. It may just have turned Darknight/Silvernight on you. Check "@".

I think you can press Ctrl X or something to see a list of your class abilities.

Thanks guys. And extra thanks to Mewto. Indeed it was Silvernight - I suppose I'm not used to looking for that because I normally play N chars and never get too far. I've switched to C to get Gaab'Baay's quests.
Feeling really good about this char, only lvl27 but 550pp thanks to a robe of power (+1,+1) [+2,+6] and the Preserver too.
