Radiants and Shadows

Added to intensify the Light/Dark Schism through Pay-to-Win
Investing Levels in these Classes allowed users to specialize in Light Energy & Dark Energy Spells
    This was a much-requested feature throughout Beta
These Classes also granted access to a variety of extremely powerful Radiant and Shadow Spells
  These spells can only be Purchased by Bright/Dark Lord or Radiant/Shadow Adept players

Radiant Energy worked off Light Resistance, and those with a Positive% were Immune
  However, it ignored Resistance granted by Equipment and Spells

Shadow Energy worked off Dark Resistance, and those with a Positive% were Immune
