dangle Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 G'day everyone, i have a couple of questions i've not been able to find out for myself. If i cast a spell at someone who can (and does) reflect the spell at me; do i automatically take the hit? Or does my magick resistance or spell absorption have a chance to negate it? Also if they successfully reflect a ranged spell, does it bounce off straight at me or do they take the hit but the damage is automatically given to me. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolCat6 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I'm not sure about reflecting a reflected spell, but I do know that when a ranged spell is reflected it doesn't visually "bounce off", it just sends the damage back to you. This also happens with heal target spells because when I try to heal companions who have high spell reflect it often only heals me and is really annoying.

LoginToDownload Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I know you can 'resist' reflected spells if they're paralasys/poison/disease/elemental, provided you actually have the resistance, but also not sure about reflecting it back.

dangle Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 cheers guys, the big one i am wondering about is playing under the atronach with my absorption bumped up to 100. i am interested to know if i will be protected by my spell absorption. It would be like the game saying:"oh, your spell didn't work, but because you were born under the best birthsign i'll let you have your magicka back and you can try again" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, if you have high absorption and a spell is reflected off your target then you get your magika back and it pretty much makes an enemy's spell reflect fruitless. I will try this awesome idea tomorrow for sure... cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sypron Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I wonder if the game crashes when two people who both have 100% reflect spell hurl magic at each other. I'm gonna go test it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
