I've noticed the same thing concerning the Silence spell. It seems to be practically useless. I've hit spellcasters with it, only to have them continue casting right along.

I was fighting the lich in the City Gate District last night. He followed me out into the tavern and proceeded to cast Silence on my spellcasters (Edwin, Viconia, Jaheira). The two ladies both had the little "ear" emblem on their picture (indicating they were Silenced). Just for the heck of it, I tried to cast anyway....it worked fine! [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]

I dunno, maybe the Silence is just a big DUD in the Arcane Department. I know I certainly won't be using it anymore.
