10th level spells

[igi]

This affects the Cleric/Mage/Ranger HLA's. And it only affects those I think are worth altering (does it matter for Tracking, or Gain Extra 7th Level spell?!).

If we're changing the primary/secondary type, we may want to change the exclusion school as well:

 BUT_ONLY_IF_IT_IS_TUESDAY_OR_THE_SECOND_WEDNESDAY_IN_JUNE_PERHAPS

 

This could be considered a nerf, tweak, or insane idea. IMHO, the fact that 10th level spell have restrictions and schools is a bug.

BUT_ONLY_IF_IT_IS_TUESDAY_OR_THE_SECOND_WEDNESDAY_IN_JUNE_PERHAPS

 

Could I request documentation for this feature?

 

I'd say that the level 10 spells are meant to have restrictions and schools, yes.

[SimDing0]

Check the manual. Level 10 mage spells are documented as being schoolless, but cleric quest spells are not.

[Kish]

I agree 10th level spells should be schoolless.

[Andyr]

Oh, right, if it says they are schoolless then I guess it is a bug.

[CamDawg]

Included only for the mage spells, as cleric spells and schools may be intended. TBH I don't think they affect anything anyway.

END

TBH I don't think they affect anything anyway.

What about Spell Immunity?

 

(Obviously Immunity: Conjuration is not going to make a difference to Summon Deva, but Implosion is another matter.)
