What is the best offensive spell in the game...whether cleric, mage or ..innate? my bets on Abi Dalzims

georgecarnell 03-01-2002 07:58 PM

God this website is the best

"Lamenting quails"

Glorfindel 03-01-2002 08:09 PM

Yes IW is the best :D

And Abi- Dazlem would be the best in SoA.... but I like Dragons Breath for ToB :D

That is Purely damaging best of course

Horrid wilting, skull traps are cool too.

On my custom made weapons, I use Chain Lightning (for sword) and Comet (for arrows).

But my favorite offensive spell is Greater Elemental Summoning. Those Princes can put a good pounding on opponents.

Best Spell...
...For mind flayers...Invisable Stalker
...For Dragons...Lower Resist then Feeblemind (and reload if it doesn't work !)
...For Beholders....um...none..I use Balduran's shield
...web + greater Malison then empty out your fire balls works ok
... and Magic Missile wins the most useful all around spell hands down...

I don't think I can narrow it down to a single "best" spell.

weell, i wouldnt call it the BEST, but i use very very much the 5th level cleric (rather druid) spell Insect Plague... up to six opponents cant cast spells and take damage and might run in fear.... really good considering its only 5th level so i can memorize a lot of it....

i havent tried ToB yest but i would say 10th mage level spell imlposion is also one of the best

to be honest..i have to say that my favourite offensive spell is the simple magic missile. YOu can have them from the begiinning, they are really fast to cast - great for disrupting spells, you can have lots of them and even a high magic resistance can;t stop at least from getting through. I find i use them a hell of a lot and against all types of opponents. HOrrid wiltings etc are good, but you get them late on and only 1-2 a day.

I;ve become quite fond of that mm spell

andy the assasin 03-02-2002 12:15 PM

abi dalzimms for mages
creeping doom for druids
storm of vengance for clerics (ToB spell)

Sir Goulum 03-02-2002 12:17 PM

D-I-S-I-N-T-I-G-R-A-T-E!!!!

If that doesn't work then I use magic missle!

Raznar 03-02-2002 12:43 PM

Death spell for mages and creeping doom for priests

Kronostia 03-02-2002 01:29 PM

Well what can i say...my Fav spell is not other then Flamearrow...the speed of the spell and the pure damage it does !2 FA and most Monsters r taken out flat..in the beginning just 1 is enough ! =)

Sir Exxon 03-02-2002 01:38 PM

<font color="gold">My all-time favourite offensive spell is the mage spell Disintegrate.
It's so cool when your target turns to dust! :D </font>


see ya!

Magic Missile and Cloud Kill when i know the enemy has good stuff on them and if its just for killing them and get them out of the way i use imprison because theres no save so it works quick and with some -spellcasting items you can cast it reasonably quick...it also looks cool when the enemy just disappears...the Jon-Irenicus-During-Scripted-Sequences factor is high (=

Glorfindel 03-02-2002 05:22 PM

I personally like chromatic orb over magic missle..... the damage isnt as good but since I only use chromatic orb/magic missle for finishing off and Little dudes chromatic orb is better IMO..... when it Kills an amnish soldier with one shot you know you love it :D :D :D
