dark magic skill

[Kasandaro]

Okay, newbish question and I haven't been able to convince my self of an answer. It's pretty much taken as a given that having a subjob with Healing Magic skill massively boosts our native healing magic.

Does anyone know if Dark Magic notably boosts our Drain/Aspir spells (Blood Saber, Digest, MP Drainkiss, et cetera)? I haven't seen what I'd call reliable results, so I'm wondering about other experiences.

No, A buddy of mine tested mp drainkiss with as much dark skill as he could equip and /blm. Since the spell is not based on dark magic skill, adding more skill did nothing to help the spell.

What about /Sch and Light/Dark Arts? It might not be based on Dark Magic.
