Question about some things I read in other thread. (in General)

So like the tittle said, I was wondering if spells like Haste or Giant Strength were protected against attacks from an assassin crossbow, enforcer crossbow or ethereal chain?

Nope.

Then what's the purpose if it's the only spell cancelled by two offensives spells?

And as I red in the wiki, it is not boosted by items.

I haven't tried it but I can see it does not seem really reliable.

No, so they are really weak to EC, they end up being a little stronger against ex/axbows though as they only can take out max 1 minion at a time.

Would love it if GS & Haste had a regen aspect dependent on casting level.

It buffs all 5 minions.

And can be boosted/protected by the RoS.

Yeah I know, but I think Ablative shield also boost 5 minions and can be combined with the RoS, but it is not affected by both ethereal chain and dispel magic.

AdminQBGentlemanLoser [{END}] December 21 2011 7:01 PM EST

Nope.

But it's reduced by all DD and all Weapons. ;)

Jecht December 21 2011 7:24 PM EST

Yeah, I guess. But I still don't feel like they are viable spells.

AdminQBGentlemanLoser [{END}] December 21 2011 7:24 PM EST

They're not, really.

Unless you're doing something, special, with them.

AdminTitan [The Sky Forge] December 21 2011 7:25 PM EST

Yeah I could see them being tweaked; but you'd have to tweak them in a way so a USD player doesn't create an invincible USD backed 4 tank team.

AdminNemesia [Demonic Serenity] December 21 2011 7:33 PM EST

GS is definitely viable. I'm using it quite well right now.

AdminQBGentlemanLoser [{END}] December 21 2011 7:35 PM EST

Well mainly because you're using it to buff multiple minions, including a Familiar (which would come under the 'special' clause above! :P).

And it's interesting to note that you're not using Haste. ;)
