Since this question is somewhat relatable, and since I spent a good hour or so RPing and finding out (as I suspect) the hard way in the game, and ending up been a lot lighter in the bank account and dripping acid.

Are the religious based spells “brewable”?

I believe I went through over a dozen attempts to brew (as was requested in game as my first brewed potion – that was promised to a friend) a potion of Sadal’s religious spell.

Skills of the brewing and spell were both in the superior range.

I figured I’d have had one success.

Anyway at the end of the affair an observer and partaker in the later end of the RP, noted OOC that there are some spells that are simply not “brewable”.

So the question is, can anyone confirm that this is the case?

Some spells are not brewable, scribable, et cetera. Those aren't real words, but hopefully they make sense.

Yes, I know, that's why I used quotations when I used them too. It's just easier than saying some spells are not able to be brewed, are not able to be scribed, etc.

Understand your pain :wink:

P. sure every single religion spell in the game was declared no-brew on release. Also p.sure this was decided to be the case so that if you wanted one of the religion spells, you actually had to know a priest from that religion.

Read the whole sentence before you react, you'll make yourself look less like you've gone full bushido.

I said they were more useful now than before because of their offensive capability of being able to gimp certain stats in such a way as cannot be removed except through time or character death with fatigue.

While that may be true... who in their right mind is going to buff their opponent, mid battle and then try to dispel it? Which would require an actual shaman/sorc to do so. If you mean that they are more useful in that they really aren't except in a very niche circumstance that no one in their right mind would do, then yes.

The Meissa spell should just be changed to Cleanse Body or something, which removes SD and Fatigue effects. Trying to improve upon its current incarnation would prob require more work than it would be to wipe and start fresh.

Now that'd be nice, and it'd certainly fit the faith.

You don't do it mid battle, that's how. Tactics, man.
