=== Research Ingredients ===
[[ProjectGorgon:Weather Witching|Weather Witching]] is a research based magic, and abilities are unlocked through combining specific ingredients using recipes. The skill can be expensive due to the required ingredients used in spell research:<br>{{Item|Salt}}, {{Item|Shock Dust}}, {{Item|Sulfur}}, {{Item|Fulgurite}}, {{Item|Dwarven N Core}}, {{Item|Magic Sand}}, {{Item|Explosive Runestone}}, {{Item|Shock Nib}}, {{Item|Guano}}, {{Item|Accuracy Circuit}}, {{Item|Pemphredo Eye}}, {{Item|Pixie Dust}}.

Every five levels, a research recipe can be learned which allows for researching a certain number of abilities per recipe. When a research recipe is completed, one of the abilities tied to that ability will be learned randomly. 
=== Tempest Magic & Tempest Energy===
'''Tempest Energy''' is a [[ProjectGorgon:Weather Witching|Weather Witching]] mechanic which is primarily used to enable the Tempest Flight sidebar abilities. Once a Weather Witch learns Tempest Flight, they will begin to accumulate '''Tempest Energy.''' 
* Tempest Energy is expended when Tempest Flight is used.
* Tempest Energy will cap at 2xMob Level, so killing level 50 mobs will only raise your Tempest Energy to 100 max.
* Tempest Energy is regained when defeating enemies using [[ProjectGorgon:Weather Witching|Weather Witching]].
* The initial maximum Tempest Energy is 100. Raising the level of [[ProjectGorgon:Weather Witching|Weather Witching]] increases the maximum total Tempest Energy which can be accumulated.
