Userunfriendly, you are just absolutely evil...

(I still think that Contingency is better than True Sight, since you can pack up spell protections without loosing a single round, and without spending 9th level spells. By the way, you get dozens of True Sight scrolls by the end of the game, and there aren't so many invisible creatures in the game...but that's personal preference)

Is there any way that a Player can really duel another Player(let them turn hostile, without loosing control), without having to "force attack"?

Another small question: Why do people choose Death spell instead of death fog? Could death fog kill your own summoned warriers?

When PCing, it's often nice to have a stationary area spell/wand/scroll ready. Cast Powerword Blind, and cast whatever. Stay back, and wait for the enemies to die...I don't know if death fog serves as the same purpose as Cloudkill.

[QUOTE=lipe]death spell is party friendly[/QUOTE]

death fog will kill your own summons...except planetars and demons of course...

yeah, you do get a lot of true sight...and keldorn gets them as innates, which is nice...and unlike many spells, you cast BEFORE battle, and enjoy the effects for several turns...

i don't believe there is any way to really create a duelling arena...i know several very advanced modmakers have tried to make one in the past, and failed...its not just a matter of scripting, but hard coded into the game engine... :p

Also Keldorn casts True-sight way faster than anyone else anyway so its sorta a waste if you bring him along
