Notes[]
- Mantles do not absorb all spells, just the ones that check spell resistance.
- This spell replaces earlier castings of itself, and it also displaces earlier castings of spell mantle and greater spell mantle.
- The empowered version of this spell occupies a level 7 spell slot and absorbs 10-15 spell levels before collapsing, which is similar to what is absorbed by spell mantle. Mages with the empower spell feat — particularly sorcerers, who have a limited spell selection — may want to use this spell (empowered) instead of spell mantle, at least until spell mantle can be empowered.
- Due to a .2da bug, lesser spell breach is not an additional counterspell of this spell.
