Tips & Tricks
- Stone Arrow is just an overall reliable spell. It deals fair and irresistible damage all throughout the Dungeon, Lair, and Orcish Mines.
- Sandblast deals about the same damage for only 1 MP, although that spell takes longer to cast and checks AC thrice. Sandblast is better in the very early game where MP is an issue, while Stone Arrow has higher damage/turn, doesn't risk enemies double-turning you, and is better against high AC.
- It's also a strong spell for Spellforged Servitor. Monster Stone Arrow doesn't have the same power cap as the player, so servitors can do much more damage. However, players with Servitor may have the skill for Bombard, which is a stronger spell.
Monster Version
The monster version is similar to the player version, except its power cap is much greater.
