Question about "spells per day"

[benseac]

After a long while I've decided to start playing DDO again, thanks to some friends who've started playing. I made a favored soul and have a question about spells.

On the compendium page, it has a section called "Spells Per Day". For the first level, there is a "2/3" value (2 spells per day known/3 spells per day cast is what it means if I'm reading it correctly). I admit my ignorance when I say I have no idea what this means. Can someone shine some light on this for me?

Yeah, they should update it.

Spell points are a complicated thing. You 25sp/level for the first 5 levels and after that it changes to adding a cumulative +5 sp addition, +30, +35, +40, +45, and so on. This formula is doubled for sorcerers and favored souls. Paladins & Rangers use something else I really can't be talked into figuring out.

The bonus spell points from you ability score is (bonus*10)+(bonus*level) I think.
For example a 14 casting stat would give you +20sp at the first level and +2 sp for every level after that kinda like taking mental toughness only instead of +5sp per level it's your ability's bonus. This bonus works the same for all classes but not 100% accurate.

I have unaccounted for sp using the char gen. Using a human 20th favored soul with 10 cha has 1725 while one with 32 cha has 2074. There is a 349sp difference between the two but the formula I mentioned is off by 19 points. Why 19 instead of 20? And more imporantly where did the extra points come from?
