sorry if this was brought up before, I seem to remember discussing it, but a quick search didn't turn up anything. So, "swarm" spells (eg bullet swarm, bullet storm) used to shoot a fair ammount of (whatever it is you're shooting), in three rows (the one you're in, and one to each side). Now they seem to shot more, in only one row, which makes them much less useful. (It's possible that they're just shooting the same ammount as before, but in a single row, so it seems to be three times as much). Was this intentional or a regression? If intentional, why? best, Lalo Martins -- So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable. -- http://www.exoweb.net/ mailto: lalo at exoweb.net GNU: never give up freedom http://www.gnu.org/
