Confuse as in cause them to miss. As in Divine Light with clerics.

An interesting idea, but not that original. It needs some more input from the rest of the community as far as I'm concerned.
Yes, it would give mages a boost.

I think the mana cost should be upped slightly to 10. I like the spell, it's a nice idea. As far as the description and name go, it doesn't quite make sense to me. Dark Purification Just doesn't sound like a fitting name for the spell from the description.

Agreed. I don't see how purification can be related to confusion.

mana for the spell seems WAY too low

edit: but other then that, seems great :)

Maybe it could be named.... Perplexing Darkness?

I think just "Confusion" would be good.

lol.. * claps

I agree.. You know how annoying and ugly it is to look at a spell name on ur list when its too big and has to take up two lines? i think 'confusion' will work fine.

Hmm...personally I dont really like the sound of this spell. First of all does it act on an entire square, or just an aimed at person? 5 stamina cost is extreme, not only would it take a lot of mana, but the mage would be even more defensless than they are at present time.

I agree that mages are probably the most underdeveloped class in Nightmist, and something needs to be done, but I dont think this is the spell to do it.

The spell was ment to affect the whole square just like divine light. It would cost something like 13 mana per person it confuses and would not affect ur party.

no offense meant but that is lame u moeswell jus have an evil cleric for that spell mages dont need an ex cleric spell lol arch mages should be somewhat close to gods themselves so where exactly would they be drawing that power from lol how about jus being able to summon dark entities like demons and such
