What does the provided patch do?
Added color support for Bright Wizard and Sorceress depending on what stage they're in (0 gray, 1-10 green, 11-30 yellow, 31-70 orange, 71-90 red, 91-100 purple), so its easy to see at first glance if you better get rid of the build up cumbustion.
Since I was at it and played a Swordmaster at that time, I also added color codes for their different balance states. (Blue, green and yellow based on the original UI colors)
Added the same for Black Orc (Green, yellow, red based on their colors)

Please provide any additional information below.
