Hello, I'm new here and fairly new to IWD. I bought an IWD package that had a small box and, strangely, no manual. I haven't worked with the Bioware Infinity engine before, but I've figured out basic play. However, there are a couple things that I am unclear on.
The first and more important is the spell system. I managed to cast a heal spell, but then the spell was gone. I notice there are memorized and learned spells. This all means nothing to me. I don't understand what the significance of memorized/learned is, how a spell becomes either memorized or learned, what I have to do to be able to cast the heal spell again, what the scrolls are for, or how to set a magical attack as a mage's default attack (rather than a melee attack). Also, how do I get multiple charges of that heal spell (I only had one).
My second question concerns crossing characters from one class to another. I have seen people talking about this, and I wish to do it-I'd like to change a Necromancer to either a Mage-Fighter or a Conjurer. I fail to see how this is accomplished though.
If there are any intricacies of the game that I might miss without the manual, please feel free to let me know. I must also apologize for asking such stupid questions on this board, but I need this information to really use the game. Thank you for any responses.
