New Skills
Meteor Strike
Description: A powerful magic spell that summons a huge meteor from the sky, turning a vast area into a blazing inferno. The point of impact becomes covered with lava temporarily, inflicting constant fire damage on enemies in it.
Other Notes: Has a CD of 30 minutes. This will most likely make training this a pain.
How to obtain: Wiki quest is still untranslated but last I checked it was attack balrog, fire sprite, and dragon with firebolt 100 times each

Instant Cast
Description: This skill allows you to use chargeable magic skills instantly without casting time or charging them. It will be activated only once during the skill's duration. When activated, you can immediately use a chargeable skill at the 5 charge level without consuming any MP. A magic skill's cooldown will decrease little by little whenever you use it to attack an enemy, so you can re-use this skill more quickly if you use it repeatedly.
Other Notes: The more magic you cast, the faster the CD decreases. Counts as per cast basis and not per charge basis. CC+5 Ice Wands would probably be the fastest way to train the use skill before x time requirements
Skill Training: Skill training is untranslated but at later ranks you will need to make use of the reducing cooldown mechanic to rank it
Snap Cast works with:
Firebolt
Icebolt
Lightning Bolt
Healing
Fireball
Ice Spear
Thunder
Party Healing
Blaze
Blaze used with Snap Cast will bypass the need to charge up the skill for 3 seconds.
Hail Storm
Although Hail Storm's initial loading time is bypassed with Snap Cast, the charging time of the ice and throwing animation is the same.
Snap Cast does not work with:
Natural Shield
Ice Shield
Fire Shield
Lightning Shield
Fusion Bolt (Snap Cast finishes the moment you start to charge a bolt spell, not giving you the charge the other bolt)
Shockwave
Meteor Strike

Moving Casting
Description: A skill that allows you to cast all kinds of magic spells except Advanced Magic skills while moving. A great deal of Stamina will be consumed to stay focused, as well as additional MP.
Other Notes: Gradually depletes the user's Stamina while active and doubles the Mana cost of magic cast during its duration. Unsure atm wither it drains stam on a % or a fixed amount. Wiki seems to suggest a fixed amount so I'll avoid saying % for now.
Cannot be used while charging Magic
Message that appears when you attempt
Allows one to cast Firebolt, Icebolt, Lightning Bolt, Healing, Fireball, Thunder, Ice Spear, Party Healing, Shockwave, and Blaze spells while and after running. It does not allow movement with Hailstorm nor Meteor Strike.
Also do note, that it does not allow you to move with magic shields. This has been confirmed as of the current KR Live.
