Cant write spell monster summoning to magebook

Gambler FEX online · 03-06-2002, 07:14 PM

It is Dynaheir and she's and Invoker level 7. I can add other spells fine like Minor globe of invuln. but not the spells monster summoning 1 or monster summoning 2. I have tried to add before I added minor globe of invuln. so I know I can learn more spells but...

Whats up? I read that an invoker school is the enemy (or something) of an Enchartment/Charm school but animal summoning should work right?

Or is it that since she's an invoker she will automatically get summoning spells when she advances in lvls?

Thanks

That's because, as an Invoker, spells from the Conjuration school (which monster summoning spells belong to) are forbidden to her.
She can cast summonign spells from scrolls, or use wands, but she can't ever scribe summoning spells to her spell book.

The Invoker kit is one of those that, for some reason, have TWO opposition schools instead of just one. Both (Enchantment/Charm) AND (Conjuration/Summoning) spells are barred to them. I think Transmuters share the same fate.

Kinda sucks that there are no non-specialized Mages in the game (except for you-know-who.....)

Ah I see, and thats why she cant even add melf's acid arrow to her spellbook...

BUT! (yes theres a but)
In the manual it clarely states invoker only has one opposition, namely the enchartment/charm school.

Taken from the manual:

Can someone shed some light on this? is the manual outdated?

update:
wait I just came to think maybe that conjuration/summoning below "red" was supposed to be more to the right...

Anyway, Im not afraid of spoilers so what do you mean by "(except for you-know-who.....)?"

It's just a misprint in the manual..I have the English manual, and it is correctly stated that Invokers have two opposite schools...this is as they are ace!..and you will have to wait and see about "you know who"!

You could always.............cheat using Gatekeeper (shudders) if you are that desperate to get the spell.

Or, you could get the wand of monster summoning.
