[ARCEMU] how can i reduce spell costs?

[controlsx2]

I compiled my source yesterday from the latest rev off arcemu, but mage seem to have mana costs much higher than they should

Cone of Cold costing 11k mana, Fireblast costing 8k

Seen as i have the source i can make edits but i dont know where to start. Could anyone explain how i could reduce the mage mana costs?

This would be edited in the DBC files. You could (with C++ knowledge) edit the core to decrease the amount of mana required to cast. But, beware that this will affect ALL spells!

How can i edit the DBC files?

Thanks stone, also how would i do it in the core? To reduce all spells, i want to reduce all by around 40%

Controlsx2 here's a patch for it:

Reduces spell cost by 40% for all mana using classes.

edit:
Patch is for latest arcemu, btw

How do i do that? just paste it into notepad and save it as .patch then rune it using the tortoise SVN thing?

as for 40% is that

ModFloatValue(UNIT_FIELD_POWER_COST_MULTIPLIER+x, -0.4f);//40%
would -0.3f be 30% and so fourth?

[Jotox]

yes 0.3f would be 30%.

And yeah save it as a .patch and apply it w/ tortoise svn
