    Regarding the limited Wish option and why "beeing protected from Undead" would summon Vampires:
    There's a small detail, addendum, to the low Wisdom option, as it say proetected from Undead RIGHT NOW. Now from the djinees pov he doesn't lie when he sends some Vampires after you, AFTER he proceeded the time to midnight.
    I always loved that small detail

      Oh shit, what a weird idea! You might just be a genius. I suppose if you make sure to have protection from negative energy you can do this without being afraid of level drain from a lucky hit while turning them, but other than that I don't see any downsides. Gonna try it next time I get high enough level to turn vampires.

    Death spell / death fog kills all summons. They won't kill demons, deva, a planetar, because these are extraplanar gated creatures, not summons.
    As for Protection from Evil and demons, it depends on your config, but even knowing that it's pretty random.

    For me, Sphere of Chaos is more of a meme spell than something actually useful. And it can break the game in a funny way :). If you import a high level wizard/sorcerer to BG1 and start the game with them, you can put it 3x in a Chain Contingency and set it to fire at nearest enemy when taking damage. With some luck/reloads it's perfectly capable of killing Sarevok and his gang in the cutscene where they fight with Gorion xD. Sadly, this will have no effect on the plot of the game, and Gorion will die anyway since his death is scripted (even if Sarevok is dead, he still somehow manages to deliver the killing blow).

    Slowly but surely. Still loving these. I have a request though, maybe after you are done with the arcane spell guides can you make a video talking a little about your sorcerer spell picks for each level? Some levels are pretty easy but there is so many good spells on some tiers that is hard to narrow it down to 5.

    • @joshy_bish
      @joshy_bish 5 лет назад

      I'm playing a sorcerer and I have just been picking from the higher tier spells from these spell guides. Sleep has been a absolute killer spell at lower levels, but my mage is scripted and keeps casting the spell on groups of high level enemies (I'm over halfway through BG1) so its doing nothing which is really annoying. Do you know of any mods that script better spell choices? Or is it just time to stop playing scripted and be less lazy haha.

  • @ktaikamatika1397
    @ktaikamatika1397 4 года назад +5

    Quick side note on Project Image: originally it should be able to cast YOUR spellbook, aka you should be able to cast spells through this image, but obviously it should use up your spellbook, and not just double your spells, effectively. Basically a fix would be somehow adjusting the image's book to overwrite yours at the end somehow, then it would be an ok spell. Still would be powerful, but heck, illusion spells deserve some love after they totally dismissed the lvl 4 phantasmal killer from the game. :-(

    • @Davaeornlol
      @Davaeornlol  4 года назад

      Yeah I'm not really sure why they made the image have its own set of spells. It's absurd really.

  • @Mikkamel
    @Mikkamel 2 года назад +7

    I think at low wisdom you actually use the phrase "I want to be protected from the undead right now", and the genie obliges by giving your friends the opportunity to protect you from the undead right now. There are some differences in the exact words you use at different levels of wisdom, and it plays a bit with the old monkey's paw trope of being really careful how you phrase your wishes, since you could grant someone's wish word for word in a nasty way which was not what they actually wanted. That's impossible to recreate in any real way within the system of these games, so we just have to suspend our disbelief and agree that a character with high wisdom can phrase their wish in such a way that the genie has to give them what they actually want, but a character with low wisdom will basically tell the genie "I want to be the bee's knees!" or something like that and let the genie interpret that as it will.

    • @luffis1985
      @luffis1985 7 месяцев назад +1

      "I want to be protected from the undead right now" means that the Genie interprets you saying that you want to be protected right now, but not at a later time like say midnight. That's why the time is set to midnight, to imply that we've fast forward from "now" until "later" when you no longer want to be protected from the undead.

  • @desen6486
    @desen6486 2 года назад +2

    Limited wish: Start a combat with a mage past midnight and run away. Ask for protection from undead with a low wisdom character. The time fast forwards 24 hours and after you've dealt with the vampires the mage has lost all of his buffs other than stoneskin. It's almost like you have a spell to turn off SCS prebuffing.

Why not Morteky sword? Its slow so damn slow and dos not do fireball :D

  • @User_Un_Friendly
    @User_Un_Friendly 3 года назад +1

    More information from my research on the wiki. Mordenkainen’s sword has a base attacks per round of ONE. Regular haste is all you need to double attacks per round if you’re buffing up your swords. Now, Skelton warriors have an APR of 2. Improved haste will increase APR to 4. Might be worth it, might not. Your call. I’d buff them up with improved haste if you’re sending them into a deep strike. I typically use farsight with my sorcerer for deep strikes like the lair of the eyeless. Wizard eye triggers agro.
    Sphere of Chaos ignores magic resistance in BG2 classic. If it does in EE with SCS, it will be must-have in my sorcerer’s spell book. 🙂

    @Masterty66 2 года назад

    @davaeorn I actually found Power Word Stun pretty irritating recently when facing enemy demons in Watcher's Keep on SCS. They kept hitting my Mages with it, and since Spell Turning etc wasn't part of my typical defenses routine, I kept getting stunned. I got around it by using Spell Immunity: Conjuration but looking back I wonder if Spell Turning might have been a good option as well. Not sure how often they spam PWS. My normal routine was to have Spell Protection: Abjuration up to avoid dispels and PWS was one of the few scenarios where I went outside of my norm with that and used a different defense instead.

    If you use fireball with a level 16 dragon disciple. While having both protect fire and fire sheild won't you get a pretty good heal? With the dragon disciples passive fire resistance mind you. But I would use base fireball for this.

    • @Davaeornlol
      @Davaeornlol  2 года назад +1

      The resist sadly reduces the damage you take which is then calculated for the heal, so instead of taking a 100 fireball and healing for 100, you're healed for a % of it, which is usually low, but its definitely helps for sure.
