Studies for a [[Wizard]], in how to find weaknesses in opponents.
==Skill Design==
Another of the highly-useful passive skills possessed by the Wizard. Sort of a full time Lower Resistance aura, that seems to work with all types of magic.
==Skill Rank Table==
Only Rank 1 is currently known.
==Synergies==
* All spells affected by resistances.
==[[Rune|Skill Rune]] Effects==
* None known.
==Development==
Penetrating Spells was first shown at [[BlizzCon 2008]] when the [[Wizard]] was unveiled. It's still assumed to be available as of 6 July 2009.
