An FYI for all those non-SOU players/dm's. SOU spells can be seen by a non-SOU PC in a non SOU server. The animations and effects of these spells have been copied with the latest patch. The one thing I did not find to work was petrification. The animation for is not there nor is the effect itself and when such a spell is cast successfully on someone it really has no effect when used within a non-SOU server.

This is good news cuz for all of you who don't have SOU, you still get to see some new stuff but on the other side of the coin there are downfalls; you can't create items in the regular toolset that grant immunities or afford bonuses to these spells so in PVP you either don't duel those with SOU or upgrade. Hey, there's always general spell resistance. [img]smile.gif[/img]
