Default Utterdark

I was looking around and coundn't find the specific answer I was looking for.

Utterdark makes everyone basically blind when it comes to fighting (except Argatha, Undead etc).

What about Mages....They don't need to see to cast lightning Bolt, Thunderstrike, defensive spells etc.

It would be like chanting in a dark room and a Elemental appears (who I assume will fight, but maybe not).

Ghostriders would be a good spell to use in utterdark I would suspect.

try the wiki http://dom3.servegame.com/wiki/Utterdark

but umm i hope you know by now that lightning bolts and such use precision to hit anything, and darkness puts major hurt on precision

Utterdark doesn't cause blindness, it's just darkness throughout the entire world, so lower precision(unless dark vision) but not completely blind... but yes, precision penalties also affect mages, but 100 precision spells won't be affected, only normal ones.

Yeah, I was just using the first two spells that came to mind (my bad).

Thanks for the link, I couldn't find a good explanation, guess I was overlooking it.
