    Hi all! I've read all the Dynaheir threads on this board but haven't seen this question addressed yet, so...

    Dynaheir in my game currently has two slots for 4th level spells, and no spells to fill them. I've tried her on every scroll I've found in the game, plus bought quite a few level 4 spells from Sorcerous Sundries in BG - but so far Imoen's gotten to memorize all of them b/c Dynaheir can't memorize them.

    Has anyone found a 4th level spell Dynaheir can cast?

    Thanks in advance!

    She couldn't memorize Minor Globe of Invulnerability?

    Ooooh, haven't tried that one yet; thanks!

    I just got a little frustrated buying scrolls at SS that she couldn't use so thought I'd cut to the chase and ask here. :)

    Is there a list somewhere of the types of spells (Abjuration, etc.) that can be cast by each type of specialized mage?

    Thanks in advance!

    No, but there is a list of the schools that they can't cast from in the manual on page 139.

    Thank you Felinoid! I'll go thru my desk and see if I can find where I buried it. :)

    Much obliged!

    The manual is also on one of the disks in a pdf document, IIRC.

    Fourth level spells she can cast:

    Dimension Door (Alteration)
    Improved Invisibility (Illusion/Phantasm)
    Minor Globe of Invulnerability (Abjuration)
    Otiluke's Resilient Sphere (Alteration)
    Polymorph Self (Alteration)
    Remove Curse (Abjuration)
    Spirit Armor (Necromancy)

    Fourth level spells she cannot cast:

    Confusion (Enchantment/Charm)
    Emotion: Hopelessness (Enchantment/Charm)
    Greater Malison (Enchantment/Charm)
    Monster Summoning II (Conjuration/Summoning)

    She can only cast three of the eight fifth level spells -- but since one of those three is cloudkill it really doesn't matter what the other spells are.

    Boy that 4th level list ins't very inspiring. I recommend 1 Imp. Invis. and the rest ORS.

    Invokers stink. :(

    I'd go with Minor Glove on Invulnerability too....makes taking on mages much easier.

    In 2nd ed rules there is the +1 to saves versus your chosen specialty class spells -- AND opponents have a -1 to save when you cast those spells. It may not seem like much, but it adds up.

    I like invokers (great firepower), only their fourth level spell selection is mediocre -- although the first four on the list are not bad (the only real loss is confusion). My personal favorite is dimension door -- warp out of the fray to a safe location and continue casting. It worked quite well for Dynaheir.

    I don't think this was implemented into the game.

    I thought it was (at least I thought it was in the Manual).

    WIS adjustements to saving throws are in the manual too, but not in the game.
