Niob -- for some reason those 'insta-kill' spells seem to work better when 'cast' via a gadget or instrument than when cast as a normal spell by a spellcaster. I know I do a lot more damage with my bard 'casting' a Lvl 7 Banish via the imported Cornu of Demonspawn than I do with my bishop (with a powercast of 80+ and a theology and divine ranking over 100 each) casting the same Lvl 7 Banish.
Same thing happens with other condition-causing spells -- paralyze and hex works better off an ammo or weapon than they do as a spell.
I figure there must be some difference in the way the percentages are calculated from one type to the other.
