This table documents the willpower thresholds required to have a 100% chance to beat the Paralyse spell. It's a template so that it can be used in multiple pages.

Calculations: Monsters have a spellpower of 4 * HD, and for a given hex to have a 0% success chance, you need 99 + enchantment power willpower. For Paralyse, enchantment power = spell power, though there's a stepdown involved. Thresholds were verified using wizmode.

Paralysis Spell Table

For the Paralyse spell (and no other source of paralysis), willpower can resist the effects. Stronger monsters are generally harder to resist. The following amounts of willpower give a 100% chance of resisting - that is, a 0% chance of being paralysed.

Reading the table:

  • This table lists combinations of XL and external willpower that reaches 0% success rate. In-game, willpower is measured in units of "Will+", but willpower is actually a number ranging from 0-200, each Will+ is equal to 40. Every level, you gain a small amount of will, depending on your species.
  • A Human requires XL 19 and 2 rings of willpower (or any 2 sources of Will+) to reach 0% success against orc sorcerers. A human at XL 19 that displays Will++ in the % screen does not resist an orc sorcerer.
  • Some cases of low XL are omitted for brevity; Humans technically require XL 5 with external Will+++ to resist an orc sorcerer. But if you're fighting an orc sorcerer at XL 4, you have bigger problems.
  • For absolute safety, make sure to x v a monster to make sure that it actually has 0% success.
