I'm just curious to know when you call you bishop an Archbishop!

I consider my Bishop an Archbish when (s)he has the 4 schools and 6 realms at +90 and know >80% of the spells!

i think that's the rank name after a certain numeric level. I just now realized, that's one thing i never look at, whether any of the rank names are amusing...i know thay're on the stat sheet somewhere, i guess i'll look when i play again. I know i've seen the word "Archmage" in that slot, under the profession Mage, where you can change your voice & portrait.

I didn't refer to the level title but more the the real capacity. My Feary Bishop could cast 10 level 7 spells at level 18 and had all schools and most realms at +90 when she hit level 18. So I may assum she was close to Archbishop.

Yeah, that would be pretty fair call IMHO. I'm trying to build a bishop that knows EVERY spell. So if I get all the spell skills in 90+ range and learn all the spells, does that mean she'll be a Super-ArchBishop?

I have not decided whether or not that will be possible. I am on my second game, this time with a bishop. I have not gotten any level up spells for him until he could get level 6 spells or the few level 5 spells that are not available any where (or at least not to the best of my knowledge).

I think that he is now about level 15 and thus has all of the level 7 spells yet to go -- but only one saved pick is left.

BTW -- is it possible not to pick any spells on the initial character creation? That would have given me two more saved picks

Note a good idea. You need some spells to train. So I did only pick a spell in each realm with some extras to boost the training. At level 18 I did have 10 picks untaken, giving me the choice to have 10 level 7 spells.

You can find many spells in the game but not all. My feary is now level 24 and have maybe 10-12 spells left to learn.

Controversial, funny reply:

"I'm just curious to know when you call you bishop an Archbishop!"

after molesting 3 children?? (rimshot) (for those outside the US, that's a big issue currently in the states)

Controversial, yes; Funny, no. I'm sure you didn't mean to offend, but biggotry, whether intential and concious or unintentional and subconcious, is not amussing.

Considering it's every other joke on the Late Night talk shows, I'm sure a lot of Americans do find it funny.

If you're going to argue this point, it's Bigotry, not biggotry. Amusing, not amussing. And Bigotry is a bias based on race, creed, sexual preference, etc... You're probably thinking of Buggery.

Better left for the comedians. I don't find it funny.
