That's a shame if it's true but I think it will be addressed later.� So,
I'll keep on trucking.� I mainly started an enchanter to craft magical
jewelry but it's been fun so far.� Other classes have broken/dumb spells
by the way - many of my necro spells are broken or UTTERLY useless.�
Sight graft - see through targets eyes - interesting but....

I've seen Tashan II in my travels� I know Tashan is supposed to lower
MOBs magic resistance so that might help more?
