Rename Spell Damage to Spell Power? And Weapon Damage to Weapon Power?

It might be a little bit more clear to understand since for example spell DAMAGE scales your magicka based heals. (same goes for weapon damage)

It seems like a no brainer but maybe I am wrong about this somewhere.

Just a suggestion :D

    If you craft potions it will say Increase weapon power on them or spell power. The phrase is used in the game already but even thou they should not be interchangeable, at the moment they are used like they are.

    they should not be interchangeable? does this mean that they are different things?

    Well in my opinion Spell POWER can be both Healing and Damage dealing but Spell DAMAGE seems to indicate that its ONLY damage, and if you use the words in that way it makes a lot more sense. The same would go for Weapon Power/Damage.

    Exactly my point,
    So if currently you go and look at your statistics, you can see your Spell DAMAGE. However the tooltip for your Spell DAMAGE reads:
    "Affects how much Damage or Healing your magicka-based abilities and weapons cause."

    So my suggestion is to rename this to Spell Power, and same respectively for Weapon Power & Weapon Damage.

    Makes sense. It would also alleviate language use in terms of taking about actual damage vs weapon/spell damage.
