After the bug fix. Before that, the one who cast Magic Duel got a +99 (or +999, absurd number in either case) bonus for him... And that is the reason for the most fear: better mages won allways. This image was formed becose you only used the spell only when you already had the better mages, and AI doesn't seem to ever cast magic duel.
And yes, I meant the Broken, not Ashen Empire. I don't know much about magic duel, I have never seen it used to fully decimate the mages of other side. And I don't know much about mages of Broken Empire, but I assumed they have a cheap mage. How expensive is the Thaumaturg Graeme Dice mentioned? What magics does he have? 1 astral 2 unholy? |
