    Followup to the previous poll. I'll post seven more of these over the next week or so.

    Grading scale:
    A: Powerful
    B: Effective
    C: Marginal or highly situational.
    D: Ineffective. Do not learn.
    F: Worthless. Do not learn.

    I took out the "I don't know" option because hardly anybody used it. The board will probably let you skip questions; if not, just take your best guess.

    Assume a "normal" party of cleric, sorcerer, fighter, etc.

    Mirror Image is the spell to have. A

    Pro from Arrows is exceedingly good, lasts for eternity and offers solid protection. AND can be cast on others, that is a top quality spell! A

    I find blindness to be extremely effective against spell-casters and ranged attackers, who generally have low fortitude saves, and once they fail their saving throw they are permanently out of battle:duration is 8 hours! B

    Snilloc's Snowball Swarm is a poor man's fireball, and it does kill orcs in Chapter one fast. :) Bull's STR and Cat's Grace are nice to have to buff weak party members or even enhance tanks even further, and Eagle's Splendor is a must for Sorcerers and Bards, and for that little extra kick to your diplomacy/bluff/int. checks. All Bs, with Eagle's Splendor being A for sorcs and bards.

    Other spells in this level seems to be crappy.

    Looks like it won't let you skip questions. Oh well.

    Sorry about the "You may not view the results of this poll without voting." issue; I forgot to change it this time.
