-Spectral Weapon offers a significant increase in damage output. The main cost is strategic - the XP you need to cast the spell. Light armour makes it easier to cast, but lowers your defenses. Heavy armour has good AC, but makes any spell difficult to cast.

 Due to the damage splitting effect of this spell, avoid using it around enemies with area of effect abilities. [[Fireball]], [[Freezing Cloud]], and [[Hellfire]] are all things you don't want dealing 1.5× normal damage.

-'''Spectral Weapon''' is a level 3 [[Charms]]/[[Hexes]] spell which summons an allied spectral clone of your wielded melee weapon to aid you.

However, half of any damage dealt to it will additionally be dealt to you, regardless of your defenses and resistances. Unwielding your current weapon dismisses your spectral weapon.
