A lowly elven monk conjures a cloud of purple smoke. You no longer feel stealthy. Why do they cast these spells during combat? |

Maybe they don't like being attacked, ever consider they do not like to die? |

Faerie Fog isn't offensive whatsoever - it's a waste of a spell to cast during combat. All it does is reveal hidden or invis characters and cancel the effects of sneak. So I ask again, why do they cast it during combat? |

I do not know whether it dispels a certain appearance-altering cabal spell - it would be extremely funny if it did. |

I don't know for sure, but this is my suspicion: The spells a NPC casts during combat are selected randomly from their list of available spells. Thus, occasionally a NPC that can cast faerie fog will select it from their list of spells to cast. The same reason a NPC that can cast edrain or harm will occasionally cast fly instead, even though it has no offensive value whatsoever. Bottom line: It's a round where you aren't getting owned by offensive spells. AKA, a gift horse. Try not to look it in the mouth, eh? |

Damn, Nath, shut up. We don't want this getting looked into - for the same reason I don't want it looked into that priest NPCs will occasionally cast sanc during battle instead of a flamestrike/confusion. [REDACTED]. |

Faerie fog also cancels camo too. |

What -should- be looked into, however, is that every single caster NPC, including reknowned warlock and shaman trainers are suddenly priests, casting harm and hold person... |

Faerie Fog lowers magical protection. |

Faerie Fog also makes a target easier to hit. |
