The Cleric spell circle lore updates are now live. The specifics of this update can be reread at:

Since the original post, we've made the following changes:

Bane/Smite (302):
The lore bonus for this spell is being revisited and will not be updated at this time.

Bless Item (304):
This spell will now use Cleric spell ranks to determine the duration and is not restricted by the character's level. It has a base 20 swings + 3 x number of Cleric spell ranks. When casting from a magical item or scroll, every two skill ranks (for the appropriate activation method) count as 1 spell rank.

Preservation (305): This spell will now use Spiritual Lore, Blessings, instead of Religion, to extend the duration.
