All this time I never knew why there is that "spells 95% effective" line on my spells pages. I guess it is the heavy armour. I chose heavy armour and 6 magics as my major skills. I didn't realise that armour would reduce spellcasting effectiveness. If I knew then what I know now, I think I would have gone with light armour (elven looks like it kicks ass) and block and 5 magics. As it is, I don't think the armour is holding me back much now. I'm still slow, but now at level 20 I'm zapping things a couple times with 12x5 fire or lightning while then run at me, then finishing them with a couple blows from an axe. The dread zombie is the only single monster that can make me retreat and keep shooting. More than one Clannfear is a bit of trouble though because my agility is so low that they knock me down.

I can't imagine standing up to a daedroth without any armour. How can you strike them dead before they get to you? Once they get to you how do you keep from being overwhelmed?
