Magic Missile

I'm just curious, there's lots of spells that mages/half mages get at lower ranks that people say are not very useful. chill touch, lightning bolt, dispel good, dispel evil, cure light if you have cure serious etc.

I've heard this about magic missle too. I was playing around in elemental canyon and I got magic missiled,, I looked at my affected list and it showed that it lowered my svs vs spells by like one.

Doesn't this then make me a little more vulnerable to other spells that will be cast afterwards? I don't know if this get's more powerful as you rank/train it the helpfile says the damage increases, but I don't know about the affects of it aka if it lowers your saves more.

So is this a useful spell to learn or train? Would mastering it help make my other spells land easier by any worthwhile margin, or is it even worth my time?

Magic missile was re-vamped since the essays were written, I think you'll find it very useful for a number of reasons. Definitely worth practicing, at least.

Mastered magic missle at 50 vs. unsanced ogre = pain.

Try for shoots and giggles.

IMHO I believe that it is wort to master it because of the damage and the benefits it can offer.

This spell will always have a special place in my heart for this reason.

That spell is beautiful, mastering it is a must

New question. Where can you train those offensive spells that do damage? unless you just do it while ranking, but you can't train many spells while ranking, it's REALLY slow and not real fair to your groupmates. I've noticed people don't like divulging there "secrets" but maybe a bump in the right direction or something cause frankly I don't have a clue.

It's become a great new addition that opens up more versatile pk possibilities and helps to even the playing field for dks and necros against combos that were otherwise nearly impossible for them to kill, though I believe its affects should be only slightly increased for the fast killers that they are.

I haven't had problems with training offensive spells while ranking, but if you want to train them seperately, there are some mobs which are unvulnerable to magic attacks and then there is always the elemental canyon.

Try casting it at the darkness.

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

necros dont get magic missile.

And while we are on the subject of magic missle, is it capped like phantom grasp?

Try casting it at the darkness.

necros dont get magic missile.

Oh, think I confused it with energy drain. Maybe necros should get magic missile.

of course they could use it...but...I dont know, Necros depend on burst physical damage with spells to compliment it. Magic Missile would probably make them a little overkill.
