ick been racking my brain out trying to figure out whats wrong with the magic system if there is anything wrong that is. most spells aside from creations food healing and flames just dont seem to do anything at all. and i'd just gotten out of using ice flame too
I've tryed everything from full health to low health, leather armor. clothing, nothing(no need to picture my character naked thank you). wand, no wand and so on. My character is at half capasity without his fireballs. and getting owned on by ogres is styarting to wear on my nerves. So whats the deal here? magic system change or something else? i figured i'd bring it up since no one else has or isn't having this problem.

It's just that the new Magic System needs special Attributes to cast magic. If you don't have those attributes (set in charakter creation) you're not able to cast that spell (it won't come a message, your spell just has no effect)

well thats a bit odd. even in the past i was able to cast easy spells like ra kel and such, and if it has to to with attributes and such, why would i still be able to cast very strong spells like ice flame but not weakers ones like ra kel eh go figure... maybe i'll make a new character or something.

Far as I can see, your attributes work fine, I do not believe you should change them. But maybe you can try to meet me ingame and we will find out what is wrong with your casting.

Well i'm currently standiong around on the beach to the south, where my character sleeps for his 'quest'. i should be there for a bit longer today if you have time.

I am not a travelling hobo. Meet me at Eldan monastery. I'll be there right now and I expect you to roleplay.

well thanks for your time Falk. we all know your not a hobo i hope explained clearly enough for ya. anyway Topic over.

I cant cast any other weak things. I mean, it casts, but it has no effect. Even my Paralyze doesnt work! you can ask just about anyone, my paralyze WORKED earlier! Like, a week ago! None of my spells inflict damage, excpet blue flame....

mine is working correctly now, Nilo, only problem is that as you said my fireballs still do no damage. just give the GM's time to fix the problems

Lies. You ARE indeed a traveling hobo. After all, you *did* travel all the way up to Northerot claiming you were "surveying the land," but for all I know you could've been eating baked beans looking for somebody to get cash from.

Your paralyze works? What must I do then to get my things back??

No dont tell Nilo, then he'll be virtually invincible again...

Oh hush, you are just attacking me now becuase you KNOW that my magic wont work well. That is the only reason why. If my paralyze worked, you wouldnt be all over me.

well..DUH..

and the mages fall...p.s. I have heard people ig talking about it so it could be used good rp to attack mages.

Mine didn't work for a while...now it does.

lets just say it pays not to be injured or head long in a fight when you want to use magic. and don't feel to bad Nilo, i don't have my fireball...*sniff* i do miss it so. but aside from that the changes to the system are more realistic, they don't really take away strength from mages but they do make things a bit more fair. of course it would still a horrible insane idea to rush a mage from across Screen. so now all mages will have to know close combat just like me. welcome to my world.

Wait.. What?? ANyway, one out of every 6 times my paralyze will work.. Is this new? Or should it work every time?? Also, how come all of the other stuff doesnt work still? I liked it how it was earlier!

I like how it is now!!!
