Streamers
« on: October 23, 2010, 12:39:24 PM »
Curious does anybody recall a spell by the name Melanthium streamers or something similar to that name? Was kind like a power spell rapture of the father but stronger because it effected more then one person at once.

I remember seeing it in the spell list it was a powerful spell that could be cast appearing to be the rainbow spell forgot the name of that as well but it pushed everybody back and knocked them unconscious or they would be killed instantly or turned to stone and

shattered. If anybody remembers what mod it was in or how to just find the spell its self that would be cool to post on how to go about doing so. Also I was curious how hard it is to make spells or how you would go about doing that?

Thanks..

I've no idea what mod that is, sorry, and there are two "rainbow" spells in the game: Color Spray and Prismatic Spray. Color Spray is useless because it only affects creatures so weak, you could have killed them by sneezing anyway. Prismatic Spray is mostly useless because there's a chance of it turning people to stone and thereby destroying almost all of their loot.

Making spells can be easy to moderately difficult, depending on what you're trying to do. After you download DLTCEP, start by opening up existing, working spells, saving them under different filenames, and start making small changes. As you go on, you will screw up, learn the "how" and the "why" of your screwups, and eventually you won't suck all that much. Just like me.

Both things are added by Planar Sphere Mod (which I strongly discourage you from using, since it's buggy and imbalanced as hell). Melanthium's Streamers is unavailable to players, though.

That, in itself, hardly makes the spell "mostly useless." Anyway, P5Tweaks circumvents the loot destruction (for stoning, disintegration and other such states).

There is another spell that is cast appearing like Prismatic Spray having the effect of either turning people to stone and shattering them or takes over half there health away or knocks them back and unconscious like dragons do. It was in planar sphere mod which I agree is a glitchy mod because I recall using it in the past and that is where the death spell must have come from. Mostly useless if known when to use the spell. Thanks for the information on spell creating.
