Bonus al cerchio arcano: +5% hit points per ogni arcanist addizionale
but arcan focus doesn't affect WOD damage at all

WOD doesn't work as you think, the HP% is the health the mob must have for wod to have it's full effect. I'll explain better, you know that casting wod upon a healthy enemy just inflicts a minimal damage, but if the enemy's hp are below 5% te damage is taken in full. Having a high level crystal will raise the percentage of HP the enemy must have to inflict the high damage, so if without crystal the threshold is 5%, with a 5th level crystal it's 25% (!), this because at 5th level we have 5lv x 5%hp = 25% threshold
