There alot of spells that just plain suck, so I thought I'd bring the subject up. The first one the springs to mind is Mage Lock. Have you ever had a use for this? I think I used it once to lock a chest in Black Root so I could feel safe that all my stuff wouldn't be stolen. Squall of ice sounds pretty good when you first hear it. A deadly Icicle arrow or something but no such luck. Its rubbish. Does fuck all damage. Body of Fire. Hmmm Im being attacked, what should I do? I know! I'll turn myself in fire so I can deal less damage and burn my armor off. Hell Gate. Why the hell would you want to summon one of these when you could just get a much more powerful ogre so less FT. Well they are just a few but having said that there are alot of useful spells as well. I just think they should have made all the spells useful.
Quench life is far from usless except against undead. EVERY spell is useful. Perhaps not in this game though. :grin: But did you expect to find combat magic in a college named "Divination"?
