Thoughts about greater malison...

Post by Damone »

I think this spell is really powerful especially since it comes at a rather low level...
think about the combinations:
greater malison + dominate
greater malison + finger of death
greater malison + prismatic spray
greater malison + chromatic orb

does anybody other than me think that this spell is real powerful?
and are there any other powerful combinations like i have mentioned above?
I'll get back to this...

I prefer to combine greater malison with confusion, horror and such spells that have a radius and can affect more than 1 enemy. :)

Well, greater malision is indeed great, but spells like horror and confusion are also great, but a greatly underrated spell is Doom!! -2 to saving throws. For a level 2 spell, very good.

So I just stood and listened.

Love doom... so quick to cast and IIRC reduces attack rolls too AND there's no save (does malison have a save?).

As for greater malison combis, I like malison, emotion and cloud kill in a spell trigger.

Remember though, Greater Malison does not stack, but Doom does.

Greater Malison and Spook?

-10 to save!!! :cool:
