River Sprites gesture with nothing happening 08/17/2015 09:38 AM CDT
Hello,

The only two spells I have seen River Sprites cast are Geyser and Rising Mist. I will get many:

A river sprite gestures.

[10:50:17] Moving fluidly, a lithe alfar warrior chops wide at a river sprite. A river sprite attempts to evade. The blade lands a good hit to its right eye!

In one day of hunting, I had 513 such instances. I hunted for 2 hours, or so.

Assuming they cast successfully sometimes this is, unfortunately, a result of not having good enough casting AI to realize they're out of mana.

That problem is on my list.

If they're never successfully casting a spell that's an easier problem to fix.

I think they are supposed to cast 4 spells, so are probably set with enough skill to cast the two spells they are actually casting but not enough skill to cast the other two.

From the wiki: Casts Ethereal Shield, Rising Mists, Vertigo, and occasionally Geyser.

So it looks like they just don't have enough skill to cast Vertigo or Ethereal Shield.
