Hi all,
Our tests proved that Simulacrum spell is almost as cheesy as PI and must be replaced with a new spell. Of course, it's not as bad as Project Image, but it's still too cheesy. You can use items (Rod of Resurrection, scrolls, etc...) in the clone's quick slots without consuming the items' charges. Hence, for example, you can have infinite healing with the rod. So, please give us your votes and comments about what kind of new spell you prefer to see. Cheers This post has been edited by Sikret: Aug 13 2007, 07:59 AM -------------------- Improved Anvil
 Cheating is not confined to using external software or the console commands. Abusing the flaws and limitations of the game engine to do something that a human Dungeon Master would not accept or allow is cheating. |

Enemy dragons use 'lower fire resistance' type spells. I just recently finished my very first IA run and elemental immunities of some monsters really bugged me. A spell to lower some resistance would be cool! Not something insanely powerful, but even a drop of %10-20 will enable us poor mages to contribute to the damage done to a boss (or golem!). Otherwise it is just throwing Energy Blades and even then, I miss most of the time!
