Magic Missile
Type: CombatMP Cost: N/A
| Source: | Equipping a jewel-eyed wizard hat |
| Price: | N/A |
| Class: | N/A |
| Level: | N/A |
| Effect: | Deals 2-25 damage (depending on level) |
| When Used: |
| You cast Magic Missile. X missiles of magical energy dart forth from your fingertip and strike your target, dealing Y points of force damage. |
Notes
- MP cost is actually 2-6.
- While fighting the darkness, if you cast Magic Missile, the following occurs (once per day):
- You attack the darkness. An elf with blue... no, gray eyes falls out of the darkness, clutching a can of Mountain Stream. You wish briefly for some cheesy puffed corn snacks.
You acquire an item: Mountain Stream soda
- You attack the darkness. An elf with blue... no, gray eyes falls out of the darkness, clutching a can of Mountain Stream. You wish briefly for some cheesy puffed corn snacks.
- Since the only way this skill can be granted is by equipping a jewel-eyed wizard hat, the MP cost of this skill is technically 2-6 MP, even though it will never cost more than 5 MP because the hat reduces the MP cost of all skills by 1.
- Damage and MP cost vary by the player's level, similar to the D&D spell. The spell shoots one missile at levels 1-2, two at levels 3-4, three at levels 5-6, four at levels 7-8, and five missiles at level 9 and above. The spell costs 1 MP per missile, and causes 1d4+1 (2 to 5) damage per missile. The maximum damage this can do is therefore 5d4+5, or 10 to 25 damage.
- This spell deals force damage which is treated as physical damage for the purposes of calculating resistances and weaknesses of monsters.
References
- Magic Missile is a common Dungeons & Dragons spell that works approximately the same as this skill.
- The combat text while fighting the darkness is a reference to Dead Alewives' Dungeons and Dragons sketch, which involves a character whose eye-color is in dispute, and someone demanding to know where the Mountain Dew and Cheetos (a cheesy puffed corn snack) are.
- Interestingly, while the game did not contain any cheesy puffed corn snacks when this message was added, there now is a "Bag of Cheat-Os" item, which drops at the new Icy Peak.
