Tuebits' Tomb on advanced wizard tactics ( counter spell )

<COUNTER SPELL>

a very useful ccmbat ability of most spell slingers, wizards and sorcerers tend to be best at this.

to activate counter spell combat mode on an enemy caster :

- right click your target
- select cast spell ( top right of radial )
- select spell special abilities ( left side radial selection )
- select counter spell

your caster will now take a combat stance and automatically turn to always face your target, and you will automatically counter spells cast by that target IF you have the correct spell in memory to counter him.

a non hasted caster cannot counterspell a hasted caster
counterspell will only work if you can succesfully identify that spell they are casting ( acheived by spellcraft skill)
can only counterspell actuall spells, not NPC ability that mimics a spell, an actual spell from a spellbook)

some spells have a direct counter to them, if you inspect a specific spell, it will indicate if it has a direct counter
eg. "haste" can be directly countered with the spell "slow".

UNVIVERSAL COUNTERS :

dispel magic
greater dispel magic
Mord's disjunction

these 3 spells can be used as universal counters and can dispell anything up to the spells level
eg. Mord's disjunction can counterspell all spells from lvl 1-9
Greater dispel lvls 1-6

when you counter a spell, you are using one of your memorized spells to stop your enemie from casting, NWN automatically chooses the lowest lvl spell capable of countering and consumes it
EXCEPTION : NWN randomly will choose a universal counter, so even if a dispell magic would have been capable, NWN may choose a mord's disjuction instead, this is automatic.
