Melf's Minute Meteors Exploit for Blades:
----
As you all might know, casting MMM sets your Attacks per round(Apr) to 5. Blades can also dualwield well, something that regular Mages lack. What you may not know is that due to MMM, the off-hand weapon is transformed into a ranged weapon.

For every 2 attacks of MMM, the third attack is the off-hand weapon, so...

1st attack: MMM
2nd attack: MMM
3rd attack: Off-hand weapon
4th attack: MMM
5th attack: MMM
6th attack: Off-hand weapon
~
~
etc... ...

So what you might ask. Well... imagine being able to hurl Crom Faeyr across the room.

Or Celestial Fury, or Flail of Ages, etc... ...

Cast Improved Haste, and the Apr becomes 10, cast Offensive Spin and you deal maximum damage for all your hits. Use the Mislead illusion to sing the Bard Song and gain damage bonuses as well.

Bards weak? I think not.

I can use a Blade and clean out an entire Mind Flayer complex without losing a single Hp.
