Revision as of 17:17, 9 February 2018

The following trainable spells are made fully or mostly redundant by concoction potions similar easily-obtained alternatives, or have been neglected by developers. These powers should not be trained on any character build.

This list is maintained alongside patches and can be used as a reliable source of character building advice.

Class

Assassin

  • Summon Darkspawn: A Pet power. Since pets disappear when a player uses invisibility, this spell serves no purpose on a class whose abilities are centered around invisibility. Furthermore, the damage the pet causes is trivial at best.
  • Slayer's Focus should only be trained to PR-1: The only difference between PR-1 and PR-40 is duration. That difference is only 80 seconds. Since this buff can be refreshed while stealthed, no serious Assassin places more than one point into it.

Channeler

Confessor

  • Convert the Shadow: All charm powers do not function at this time due to a bug. Furthermore, this power suffers from the same weaknesses as other Pet powers, with the added disadvantage of needing to find a living mob ahead of time. A charmed pet cannot accompany a player who has been summoned or who travels through a Runegate.

Doomsayer

Druid

Discipline
