Spirit Dispel, as the name implies, dispels magical effects from the target with a spiritual emphasis.
The spell can have one of three possible effects when cast on a creature or player target, in the order presented.
- It will cause the target to lose a prepared spell, if any. This may result in the target receiving nerve damage. The mana cost for removing a spell is reduced by one (1) mana per seventy-five (75) skill bonus in the Spirit Mana Control skill.
- If there are no prepared spells, it will dispel any spells the target has active on them, such as a defensive spell.
- If there are no active spells on the target, it will drain the target's mana.
The mana costs for dispelling a prepared spell or burning a target's mana remain a flat 17 mana, and are NOT affected by mana control skill training.
When cast on a target, a hazy film coats the target. If Elemental Dispel and/or Mental Dispel is cast on the target before the hazy film fades, a flare may affect the target based on the level of the player character or creature being dispelled compared to the level of those dispelling.
When used on an item, the spell may drain charges from the item, dispel any stored spells, or remove some other special ability. It can be used to remove a blessing or temporary ensorcell from a weapon.
