Much more than merely a more powerful version of Iron Shot, this is the ultimate single target damage spell, found only in the Book of Annihilations. Conjurers of all walks often branch into Earth Magic merely for the sake of this spell and its irresistible damage. The only drawback is its high casting difficulty. At maximum power it deals up to 230 damage, strongly biased towards the average of around 117: 10d22 with a 30% chance of 10d23.
Monster spell
Certain feared monsters in the dungeon can also cast crystal spear, often with the ability to single- or two-shot unprepared adventurers.
monster_spell_damge = 3d(16 + power / 10) where power = 12 * monster_hit_dice
For quick reference, the monsters that can cast crystal spear:
| creature | hit dice | damage |
|---|---|---|
| Deep elf mage | 4 | 3d20 (3-60) |
| Erolcha | 6 | 3d23 (3-69) |
| Ogre mage | 10 | 3d28 (3-84) |
| Wizard | 10 | 3d28 (3-84) |
| Roxanne | 14 | 3d32 (3-96) |
| Deep elf annihilator | 15 | 3d34 (3-102) |
| Draconian annihilator | 15 | 3d34 (3-102) |
| Lich | 20 | 3d40 (3-120) |
| Ancient lich | 27 | 3d48 (3-144) |
History
There was also an unrandart known as Lehudib's Crystal Spear, a +6,+6 spear of returning that enhances the wielder's intelligence. In-game, it was unclear whether the weapon inspired the spell or vice versa; in reality, the artefact was a pun on the older spell (according to a comment in art-data.txt).
