Help With Spells - Possible Spoiler

Post by davfrahen »

Is there any way to check which spells you have allocated to trigger and contingency spells? I set them and can`t remember what I set them for! Also, how do you change or cancel them?
I`ve just used the Wizard Eye spell for the first time. It came across a Koa Toa and got smacked and promptly died. I thought they were better than that.
I`m also very confused with Wondrous Recall. I can`t make out what it`s supposed the do and the explanation is not very clear.
To make up for all this, I`ve just realised what a fantastic spell Chaotic Commands is!

Well I don't think there is any way to look up which spells you have already chosen to Trigger and Contingency spells...To remove the spells you've chosen on those, you have to cast the spell...there is no other way (I think?).

Wizards Eye spell...hm...never happend to me that it got smacked by some hostile creature.

Wondereous recall recalls spells that you have already used.

Go to your spellbook and you'll find a button called "contigiencies" located below your memorized and known spells. You can remove them if you want. I think it's only contigiencies in there, and no triggers, but I could be wrong.

And well, you have to actually have a contigiency known to have that button shown up.

In your spell book there should be a button near the bottom of the page that lets you view and cancel contingencies. I'm pretty sure it's available in SOA and I think it contains sequencers too.

I`ve just used the Wizard Eye spell for the first time. It came across a Koa Toa and got smacked and promptly died. I thought they were better than that.

They've been changed with various patches, still they're buggy and stupid. Use the spell farsight over Wizard Eye, because it can be cast over any distance, through walls and over doors, besides immune to dispell.

I`m also very confused with Wondrous Recall. I can`t make out what it`s supposed the do and the explanation is not very clear.

Wonderous recall is a spell than restore a random spell that's been unmemorised. It tries to retore a spell of the highest level but will restore any lost spells lower than its own level. Personally I use it to restore my Heal All Spell or Stoneskin when I've used them.

If you like Chaotic Commands, try memorising three of 'em, casting them on your party members then cating Wondrous Recall... see if you like Wondrous Recall now :)
