Strange wild surge

Post by Tovam »

Somehow all spells being cast are affected by wild surge: color change, both spells and scrolls I cast as those of my enemies
And I don't think I have to tell that it might be a bit annoying ...
(I first noticed it in the Sahuagin city but didn't pay much attention, and now I'm stuck with it)

Does someone know how to solve it?
Thx

Are you playing a "Wild Mage"?

Moving to the SoA forum, where this question appears to belong.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.

Actually wildsurges are added in ToB so it's a ToB topic.

ALL spells cast are wildsurges?
Do you have ToB installed? And have you installed the latest patch?
I do not have the touch, nor do I have the power.

They're added in the expansion, true, but they're not simply added in ToB. If you get the expansion, you can play a Wild Mage right from the start of SoA.

Maybe he has one of the cheat keys enabled. If I remember correctly ctrl+h allows you to chose any of the wild surges from 1 to 100.
When Evil beckons what will you do?

Will you run and hide?

Or will you answer the call and revel in it's power. It will set you free, to do what you want....when you want. It will unleash you, let you become anything you desire and gain power over those weaker than you.

But will you care about their plight,their screams and cries for mercy? No, for doing so would would make you as weak as them and there are always others willing to take your place from you...

Well, I'm a Kensai/Mage, but all castings were changed into wild surge: color changes, ever castings from scrolls
But I somehow managed to solve it myself
Thanks for the help anyway

And how did you solve it? Or did it simply stop on its own?
