I hate Chromatic Orb in Baldurs II. The REAL spell from D&D is simply a save vs the special effect. (At a certain caster level... the extra effect is actual death if saving throw is failed) However, in Baldurs II, all monsters get a +6 to their save to avoid the extra effect. Let me put it this way... any and all monsters above a certain level will automatically make that save. That means the spell only does damage, and can't even outdamage a magic missle. Basically, the best first level spell in D&D got nerfed to the point of uselessness.
