Favorite Spell

I know that many people will be playing the game and learning lots of new stuff very soon. My brother told me he would buy Wiz 8 for me for a Christmas gift. I don't think I am gonna make it that long. Despite having a 28.8 connection, I downloaded the demo the same day I heard about it. I thought I showed considerable restraint in not going down to the local cable/phone company and strangling them for not having broadband in my complex. I actually managed to wait for about 8 hours from the time I heard about the demo to the time I started downloading it overnight. I am not gonna make it till Christmas.

Anyway, back to the subject. I was testing some new stuff and decided to try the X-Ray spell. It is AWESOME!!!! Not only do objects and monsters show up on your radar even if they are behind walls or doors, but the monsters show up on your map as well! When a new monster spawns, I just look on the map to figure out where it is and plan a route to get there. The bad points to the spell are that items do not show up on your map, but they do show up on radar. I am not sure about hidden items because I think I got all of them before I got the spell. And you cannot really tell what kind of monster is there until you actually see them. (I charged after a group of monsters that turned out to be vile roaches. ) Even with its "bad" points it is still a cool spell.

So what is your favorite spell of the Demo?

Gotta be the level 7 FIREBALL...nothing like it to clean out a room full of baddies.
