[Slydria]

Cast Order appears to not be granting any increased Spell Power, spells do the same damage with or without the effect. This was tested with Tactician spells, such as Fire Whip, Splash and Pinpoint Electro, all of which consumed Cast Order but did not gain any increased damage compared to their normal casts. The Status LV was listed as LV38 to note.
