    I think web is better even though in IWD1 when you were webbed you were held and couldnt attack. Whereas in IWD2 you can still atack, even though it says you cant.

    Entangle might be better, but only because you can find a pair of boots early which allow a char to be immune to that spell.
    So "entangle" would leave one of your chars entirely free to move in the affected area, which isn't the case with web.

    Especially if you're soloing :evil:

    Heh, but web is generally better. I remember casting my cautiously targeted web and then aiming precisely counted Agannazzar's Scorchers to catch as many monsters in line as possible.

    It also works nicely with fireballs and cloud spells.

    The good thing is that although they can attack they can't cast spells. Hehe. So sometimes just a good bow & arrows will do.

    [​IMG] Well i never use web or entangle in combat, i stick to summoning undead and monsters and then casting sanctuarry on myself to win battles

    But if i was to choose which spell...web or entangle... id choose entangle since it's a great starting spell for a druid at the begining of the game

    Honestly, I've i'm casting Area Effect Spells.. It's usually an Area Damage Spell..

    But Web would OWN entangle, (THe inside outside factor)

    Besides, my Sor could Own Any Druid.. ^_^

    Web is much better just make shure your spellcasters don't get stuck in it. unless you have some strategy where ur guy that is immune to entangle waits for the enemy to get cought then attacks them.

    [​IMG] As a further thought.. Web Vs Entangle.. Neither

    Wail of the Banshee.

    Kills Everything in the Area of Effect.. As opposed to Not letting it move..
