[CF List] Re: [CF:1371] Resurrection

[Peter Mardahl]

Jan is correct, at least in the CVS server code include/spellist.h.
I just examined the code.

Spell		Level	cost		description
raise dead	10	50		requires a corpse, exp*=.95 con-=2
resurrection	25	250		requires a corpse, exp*=.9  con-=1
reincarnation	20	150		no corpse, exp*=.8

These effects are clearly fubar, and not want I wanted when
I wrote these spells.

Reincarnation was supposed to be the most powerful/hardest.

I'm changing it like this:
raise dead	10	150		requires a corpse, exp*=.8 con-=2
resurrection	20	250		requires a corpse, exp*=.9  con-=1
reincarnation	25	350		no corpse, exp*=.95

Reincarnation is clearly the best spell, because no corpse is required.

      Are you sure it has a level of 200?  I think "raise dead" is level 10,
