Nice to know, 'cause I was refusing to take a banite/sorcerer up to HOF thinking its spells wouldn't work anyway.

Kevin, Will save spells are generally more effective in HOF than Fort save spells, since most if not all monsters have greatly enhanced Fort saves, but have the exact same Will saves that they had in Normal mode. And taking SF and GSF in Enchantment will further increase their effectiveness and are pretty much definite wanna-have's for any HOF bound spellcaster intending to make heavy use of Enchantment spells.

OK, the thing is I thought ALL their saves were boosted in HOF, not only fortitude. What about the reflex save? Is it boosted, too? I don't remember doing enough damage with a fireball. Or a Meteor Swarm. Or a- well, you get it.
