So, this SA adds 99 matck (for C grade weapon) and raise mana used by 15%.
Its too good to be true. What is the catch ?! only that mana thing?
Can anyone tell me something about this SA, because it seems way too powerfull.
the catch is, that extra 99 mattk is NOT added to the weapon. instead, that extra 99 mattk is added directly to your current mattk.
due to the way mattk is calculated, if they added it to the weapon's mattk, 99 extra mattk would push your total mattk up by about 200 or 300 or so. by adding it to your mattk instead, your mattk goes up by 99, period. 99 mattk, at higher levels especially, just isn't enough of a bonus to justify 15% more mp usage.
Its like BaseMatck + (WeaponMatck*multiplier) ??
And the 99 from Magic power is added to the result and not to WeaponMatck. If this is true than 24 from Empower SA is acctually 24*multiplier, than 99 is not so high.

Empower SA is added to the total matk (including buffs), too, like magic power SA. Higher grade weapons have a higher bonus (I think A grade magic power adds 150 matk or something like that). Still, empower SA is pretty useless and magic power SA is only good at around lvl 40 to 50 or maybe mid 50s, after that the 15% extra mp cost per nuke simply is too high for the added damage (because nukes cost more the higher the skill lvl, so the 15% extra mp cost gets more and more the higher you level).
There were some discussions already about these SA, try doing a search.

Empower adds to final Matk like Magic power. Nevertheless, it has no penalties.
If you already have like 500 Matk, another 99 will add like 20% to Matk and it will be like +9,5% more in damage. But you'll spend 15% more mana. In time you'll spend more mana for the same amount of damage.
Sometimes it might be worthful. For example, you can 2-shot a mob with SA and can't do without it. But generally it's not a big deal for nukers.
