This article covers adjustments to specific spells or groups of spells.
Combat
- Direct Combat Spells[1] deal base damage equal to half Force. If the spell is successfully resisted (defender has equal or more hits than the caster), it does not deal the base damage.
- Knockout[2], Stunbolt[2], and Stunball[3] have their Drain Value increased by 2. Channeling energy in a way to stun instead of kill should be harder, not easier.
Manipulation
- Napalm Wall[4] is a variation of [Element] Wall[5], but inexplicably lists a lower Drain code despite combining elements making it arguably more powerful and certainly more flexible. It's Drain code is F+2, just like the spell it is derived from.
- Turn to Goo[6] is banned.
