If you had to choose between Chain Lightning, or Invisible Stalker, which one will you choose? Please only decide between these two spells, and give your reasons for why.

Two really good spells!!!!! I like chain
lightning because it damages all enemies and I occasionally like to put three in a spell trigger; however, my vote is for Invisible stalker. There are a lot of summoning spells out there and this one is top notch!! I've tried this spell in ToB and while my other summoned creatures would be dying right and left, my invisible stalker would be still hacking away at the enemy. Hmmmm, maybe I should put three invisible stalkers in a spell trigger when I have a big fight coming up. I just like spells that I feel I'm getting my moneys worth with. That's why I like summoning critters. Chain lightning is just over so quickly. |

Invisible stalker is more adaptable than chain lighting but you can't really compare them because they're completely different-I usually go with both.

I would choose chain lightning because it is much more efficient. I mean, few people have resistance to electricity and you can deal with lots of enemies quickly and effortlessly. I don't like the invisible stalker because I think it's useless. If he had a better weapon (he carries normal ones) he would be great.

Yep, I think Chain Lightning should be the must-have before Invisble Stalker. Mitsos pretty much summed up the pros.

Chain Lightning wins. The invisible stalker is a nice summon before your mage or cleric hit level 15, but afterwards, there is little reason to summon stalkers instead of summoning Skeletal Warriors, which do more damage, and last much longer.

Ok, so that is 3 votes to Chain Lightning and 2 votes to Invisible Stalker. I will wait another day and see whether more people vote.
Thanks everybody! I appreciate your input. ------------------ If not a Sorcerer casting total oblivion, then a Cavalier meting out justice.

I cast my vote for Chain Lightning. granted, Invisible Stalker conjures up a hardy little badass that can be of help, but Chain Lightning is a spell i use far more, is more useful in a wider variety of contexts, and what someone said about loading a bunch of them in a spell trigger is a great great thing.

Here's a question: Which spell would
come in more handy if, say, you are going to solo the game? |
