Earth Reaver

It would be nice to see the code implement the full affect of Earth Reaver.

Meaning that if the save was failed, that person would be forced to sit down for a round.

I think this was changed to stop people from being perm-stunned. As was the case when the spell was first put into use.

But then it is a rather "massive" spell that does quite a bit of damage.
Upon casting this spell, the earth in the area erupts into a shower of
rock, dirt and fire. Creatures within the area take damage with no save,
and are knocked prone by the impact unless a save is made.
I think it would be okay to have to sit down for one round. Though then the spell shouldn be perma-used every round :)

dort, wo zwischen Grabkreuzen Mohnblumen blühn,
da flüstern die Gräser und wiegen sich leicht
im Wind, der sanft über das Gräberfeld streicht.

After those changes, Cret, do spells like earth reaver and sound burst STUN at all? Cause I've been smote rping that they do. Should I stop that?


As a side note, I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on the coded strength of spells in the game.

Sound blast I know for sure stuns when I had it used on me. It stunned me for what would be a round or two in a normal fight.
