Subject: Re: CHAR vs WIS vs INT .......STOP THE INSANITY!!!!


Well, I have been in since P2 and I am on the P2 only message boards that
Verant posts on. From posts DIRECTLY from the magic guy, GZ, it is quite
evident that Charisma DOES affect most, if not all, of the enchanter spells.
How much? That is the current debate. You need to learn to accept the
opinions of others as that, and stop down playing everyone else. We are here
to try and learn from each other, so please keep it that way.
