Can Cage of Light please not chastise me for casting without specifying a moon, then simply disappear with my mana? All of the other moon dependent spells inform you that you must specify a moon, and then allow you to do so without having to prepare the spell again.

I'm not so forgetful that I disintegrate myself when teleporting, but putting up a buff doesn't require the same level of attention, so I often forget and wind up feeling slightly irritated.

Or better yet, let us cast Grazhir cages that default to that without moons. Just kidding.

Huh. That's interesting - it's almost set up right, but not quite.

Just doing a quick sample it looks like Moon Mages are kind of split over this (I don't have the time right now to go through them all... ::mumblemumbleDaredevilmumble::) but I don't think it's an unreasonable request if someone wants to put together a full list of spells that need updating so I can do them in one pass.

To start things off:

Wrong moon uses mana/prep:
CoL
Moonblade
Distant Gaze

Wrong moon does not:
Focus Moonblade

I was only able to test FM, Moonblade, and CoL.

Focus Moonbeam:
No moon specified: Error message only.
Wrong moon specified: Error message only.

Moonblade:
No moon specified: Error message only.
Wrong moon specified: Error message with mana/prep loss.

Cage of Light:
No moon specified: Error message with mana/prep loss.
Wrong moon specified: Error message with mana/prep loss.
