The air takes on a sudden chill as a glittering deep blue-grey sphere flares and rushes at an asaren celpeze!
The asaren celpeze stops suddenly, frozen in place by the flash of icy light, but only for a moment -- a flurry of activity follows as bones, flesh, and blood all snap, crackle, and rearrange themselves under the stress of the frigid starlight.

Just curious what everyone's favorite constellation to use with SLS is and why? My own personal favorite being the old reliable Toad. It seems to be the best balance of style, power and availability.



"An' I'm learnin' 'ere in London what the ten-year soldier tells; If you've 'eard the East a-callin', you won't never 'eed naught else. No! you won't 'eed nothin' else"

Magpie. Shadowy black, easier to maintain due to slow speed, and always available.

When I want more speed I use the spider which is crimson. The other always available options are the cat which is an ugly ruddy red and the viper which is a non-moonmage-like bright green.

I don't use average speed constellations generally, but I have used the Raven for the deep purple.

Spider. Faster pulsing, brilliant red, always up.

Spider. Same reasons as above. I like the idea of faster attacks.

I tend to go for Raven to get that deep purple goodness, unless I have a need for speed, in which case I go for Spider.

>For some reason you just can't stop thinking about glarmencouplers.

<<I like Scales for fast and Dove for slow.

What do you use when it's not summer?

<<oddly, the slower ones are sometimes more powerful.

This is just subjective perception. All other things being equal (mana used, tm skill, etc.) there is no difference in the potency of the spheres.

What you might be seeing is a faster sphere not stunning as often because they're attacking again before the first stun wears off. But that doesn't make it less powerful.

>Was the spell homogenized in 3.0? I haven't used it in years, but I seem to remember that different constellations created different type of spheres.

I linked that page because it answers both your questions. It's obvious from your post(s) you didn't read it.

Since that is probably the worst spell page on Elanthipedia, I don't blame anyone for reading comprehension issues with it.

Re: Life mana Spell preps

You raise your hands in the air. You wave them like you just don't care. Somebody says, "Hey!" Somebody says, "Ho!" Somebody screams.

Not everyone uses threaded views.
