You can win duels using energy arrow pretty easily, but that\'s about it.  Spells are pretty much just light shows you can use to grab the attention of new players.

The only useful thing I can think of is crystal way....you seem interested in magic,so that\'s probobly the way to go.

Uh huh, and spells can also be worked into roleplay.  

Example: Zorbels is hit by Talad with a lighting bolt (start freeze spell) Or Zorbels mutters a couple of magical words under her breath to put a sleep spell on Stronith (cast healing spell or which ever spell looks good at the moment) Or Zorbels goes into a deep rage (Cast Weakness spell).

So there is more to these spells than \"Light shows\" for newbies. The Fire burst spell is also pretty effective from what I have found. though it doesn\'t seem to be as strong as the energy spell it still does quite abit of damage.

Yup that is correct. This glyph is the meteor glyph and you need alot more red way to cast it. :D

The Meteorglyph is the 9th glyph yes, but no one will
get this glyph.
The meteorglyph is too much bugged atm to be even tested.

So officially this Glyph does noet exist at all, eventhough you can see it in the magic-shop.

Yes, that quest is very hard to understand - and at the end, as usual, the \"one and only magic sentence\"...

i thought the problem with this quest was the fact that a required item was more-or-less unobtainable?
