Oh, yes abjurers can stack iron+harden+sanc
and poor alterers can not, indeed
but they have powerful offensive form!
and abjurers form are almost useless
i tried to fight with Herecy as a fox and beholder
and with others as well(with old channel, long time ago)....no chance with Herecy
and i can win against some others, aye
but they easily flee or cast some s**t on me while i am fox
and while not in form abjurer can do nothing
and do not tell me about paralyze, every who is not completely stupid could gather 40+ svs.....forget about paralyze and hold person
Teilli, you played abjurer in chromatic and other autocasting items, while i playing without em
and i think abjurer lack offensive power and he should be slightly improved...the key word is "slightly"!
It is almost impossible then to slay your foe, if he hath quite good link, you just have nothing to stop him from fleeing and your damage in one round is too low to slay him suddenly, like invoker can do with his *Annihilates*, by the way even under paralyze/hold people can flee and word
Aye, Kiri, YOU of course know better than me whom Tower accepts, but NOW we have only transmuters here
one necromancer-Merdok
one invoker-Lavi..
Hija Ehlin Goris Misoth Sokaie Neile was transmuters
But i admit that there are some classes that even less powerful than abjurer
P.S. and do not tell me about scrolls or potions, i know them all, but we are speaking about 'native' class powers now.
P.P.S and i am too lazy to get them all without strong need
