There are two shark-summoning spells: School of Sharks (Conj 4) and Shark Attack (Conj 6). Which do you mean? School of Sharks is nothing more than sea-going Swarm, so it's effective only in the...

Re: SP and MP Poll

Like vfb, Sombre, and Saxon, I play mostly SP, and pronounce myself the winner when there's nothing left to do but finish grinding the AI into the dirt. Which is too bad, because I like the...
