    In the manual it says that I should be able to see what spells are a part of my Contingencies and Spell Sequencers. However, I can only see the Contingency one.

    Is this the way everyone else's game is, or just mine?

    I remember only seeing the spells contained in the contingencies too. So I wouldn't get confused, I started putting only defensive spells in my sequencers & triggers and only offensive spells in my contingencies. Saved me from having to write down everything or try to remember what I had where.

    Just a suggestion. Can't hurt; might help.

    Yes, that is annoying, I remember firing a knock at a powerful enemy because of that. I wanted to test putting knock in my sequencer, but it wasn't my intent to fire it at a powerful enemy.

    Inquiring minds (at least mine) want to know why in the world you would put a knock spell into a sequencer? :hmm:

    :lol: Might have been lame, but very funny! Would definitely fall into the D'OH category.

    [​IMG] StressedE walks up to Kangaxx the Demilich, and after exchanging threats, StressedE gets fed up and fires his mighty spell sequencer...

    Kangaxx had been expecting something slightly more powerful and falls back in anticipation for the onslaught. But both are surprized to find that only the door at the far, far(way over there) end of the room has been unlocked.

    StressedE begins cursing his sequencer as Kangaxx laughs and quickly disposes of the menace.

    (just hypothetical of course... and I don't think that there is actually a door at the other end of the room.)

    I couldn't resist... sorry.

    And yes, that is increadibly annoying.

    In your hypothetical situation, that door opening was a hint, i.e. get the h**l outta there! :lol:

    Just slightly :yot: , but funny nonetheless.

    [​IMG] @spelladonna:
    At the time I had a sequencer ready, and only a few knocks memorized. I was going to rest, so I was like... Ohw well, might as well put it in a sequencer, cus I'll get a new one anyway.

    I could imagine a mage to put a knock in a sequencer. For emergency exits. (Although firing one at kangaxx is still :bang: )

    @Jack of all trades:
    lol, nice story

    @Taluntain:
    :toofar: So now all of a sudden it is legitemate to post nonsense posts? :shake:
