 There are two aspects to the potency of a card's effect: called "power" and "power_level" in the source code.
-''Power'' is the card equivalent to [[spellpower]]. Players draw cards at <code>power = (9 × Invocations) + (1.5 × piety) + (piety × (Invocations + 25) / 27)</code>. Cards drawn by wrath have a power of <code>18 × XL</code>.
+''Power'' is the card equivalent to [[spellpower]]. Players draw cards at <code>power = (9 × Invocations) + (1.5 × piety) + (piety × (Invocations + 25) / 27)</code>.
 Most cards then translate power into ''power level'', a number ranging from 0, 1, or 2. Each level can be considered a new "tier", and may add new effects or simply improve the card; for example, [[Orb card|the Orb]] fires multiple orbs of destruction at power level 2. Every time a card is drawn, the game rolls twice: <code>power / 900</code> and <code>power / 2700</code> - each successful roll raises power level by 1.
