			Monsters always have a set amount of willpower, which is listed on the wiki's respective monster page. Players' willpower can be calculated with the formulas below.

	As a practical matter, a player who has Will++++ should generally be able to resist the most dangerous enchanters in the game (such as [[deep elf demonologist]]s, [[lich]]es, and [[ancient lich]]es). More Will reduces the likelihood of these spells landing even further, but the gains become significantly less important beyond this point.

	First, spellpower is modified by <code>spellpower * factor</code>, which is specific to a given spell. For example, [[Cause Fear]] and other "mass enchantments" have a factor of 3/2.

	The stepdown function means that, for every 35 enchantment power, the next 35 power requires twice as much spellpower to obtain. Since spellpower (for spells) goes through a [[Spell power#Step down\|stepdown]] of its own, it becomes very hard to raise power at high levels. To compensate, many high-level spells, such as [[Agony]] and [[Enfeeble]], have large multipliers.
