Buffing Options

[rbeverjr]

I typically buff to the utmost for the many hard battles. It seems like it takes forever to do this and is no fun - quite tedious, in fact. Is there some way I can just press a function key and have selected spells cast in a selected order. I heard that the Soulafin mod had something like this but am unfamiliar with the details.

That would be pretty funny. Walk into a room with a lich that can't be turned by a level 21 cleric. The lich pops off 7 spells or so in an instant becoming "invulnerable" and then so does 4 of my 6 characters. Can someone point me to a mod, tutorial, or provide some help on creating a buffing script?

True. And that's the very reason this buffing method is used, I guess.
But one might argue that it's quite unfair if an enemy can set up several 1 round/level spells within the blink of an eye while you literally have to spend several rounds doing so. Let's say you cast something like: Mirror Image, Fireshield Red/Blue, SI: something, SI: yet another thing, Improved Haste. Then you've lost 5 rounds of MI's duration, 4/3 of the Fireshield Red/Blue duration, and 2/1 of the SI: whatever duration. If a spell is only active for like 20 rounds 5 of them is just 1/4 of the whole duration. Maybe an somewhat extreme example.

[edit] Oh well, this (the spell per day thing) was something I wanted to ask anyway. Thanks for the answer, Sikret. Nice explanation by the way . Fantasy seems to be quite important in RPGs anyway, right?

Nevertheless I do wonder to what degree the difficulty affects the tactics etc. of the nemies anyway? Is the maximum reached at core already or at insane? [/edit]
