I haven't used a torch in over 2 hours of gameplay ^^. Who needs torches when you have insectoids covering the rear.

Through dumb luck I discovered the light spell. I was thinking I should see if I can guess a rune combo for a better attack, and 'bam' first one. Not that I'm complaining, heh.

Yep, it's my favorite... I don't waste torches now because of that ^^. No more tedious torch management, and always have them lying around for puzzles.

I couldn't do this at all. I have so many torches that it is impossible to run out. Now that I have so many torches, I use them instead of rocks. :lol:

I still prefer torches, as they're a bit brighter. Also, the cold blue glow of the light spell is rather creepy, whereas the orange glow of a torch is a bit more warm, and makes the dungeon feel a little less scary, lol.
Sometimes I wish the world was flat so I could push people off.

Puzzles take so long that torches tend to easily run out for me ^^, hence the reason I stopped using them for now.

I sure hope one of those Spellcraft school magics is Light or something to that effect :?

I pumped 5 points into Spcraft and my mage is only lvl 2.

No luck with scrolls tho, I'll need to experiment.

Yeah, I've run out of torches recently and it's become a little creepier, especially with all the shuffling spider sounds.

I also need to experiment with some spells as I am getting owned by some spiders and my best offense scroll I found was only the basic fireball.
