POLL: best/craziest/disastrous wild surge you've had

Amergin · 02-20-2002, 07:10 PM

worst: my character had a stoneskin contingency for when his hp drops below 50%. while fighting demogorgon this kicked in but the wild surge turned me to stone

best: fighting gromnir with the improved patch, with every buff and protection on i can muster with my level 17-21 party and expecting a tough fight, my wild mage casts time stop and the wild surge is area effect, which lets each of my characters get their own personal time stop in succession. every enemy was killed before imoen, the last to go, did anything. i reloaded because it was too easy and boring [img]smile.gif[/img]

IN one of the WK Wild Magic Zones, my Suddenly Female Monk was facing off against 20 hic-cupping squirels, a pair of hasted giants and a dozen insane quasits.

Much fun.

Unfortunatly, the sex change removed all of my monk abilities!

No speed, crap melee, crap ac, I was lucky to make it out of there alive.

My best was when I used Nahal's reckless dweomer to cast Nahal's reckless dweomor and it cast in a loop (i assume its a bug) 5 Nahal's reckless dweomer and the end result was a massive 8 x power fireball doing no damage to me. Needless to say sendai was quick to die!!!

My worst was when I cast time stop and instead it made the enemy able to move in timestop and not me. Needless to say the 5 fire giants made short work of me

Wow, Amergin, that's an amazing surge!

My best was also an "area effect" surge, on stoneskin. It was nice to see Yoshimo and Minsc so protected.

Can't think of a worst just now.

worst: while soloing, i was casting stoneskin, and it wild surged to hold person on me! i stood there with my arms out and watched myself get killed by some fighters

best: i dont really have a best

funniest: fighting gromnir, trying to cast time stop...sex change! lol

J'aran · 02-24-2002, 09:19 AM

Yea, I had that area-effect Timestop once too, against Amelisan no less. Made short work of her.

LOL @ Lucifer. Why in the name of Mystra would you ever want to cast NRD with NRD? Funny though, and good result.
A thing I have found is that I always get a horrible effect when I try to cast (Improved) Chaos Shield with NRD.

Funniest surge I got was probably when it suddenly began to snow in the Oasis.

BEST: area affect globe of invunrability(errrrrr.... not sure on the spelling.)

WORST: caster also targeted flesh to stone (ohhh that hurt alot right after i killed the elder orb as well.)

Funniest: two sex changes in sucesion.

Only one encountered so far was when my mage changed colour to a glowing gold. Mind you it made him easier to see in the dark. Not quite as bad as being turned to stone...ouch that must have hurt.

The craziest I had was in one of the WK wild surge rooms when I got hit by a falling cow! I didn't know CowDrop was still in the game.
