Duration of Resistance
« on: April 07, 2007, 12:09:53 am »
I am curious about the duration of the cantrip/1st level paladin spell "resistance."   The duration on the in game description says 1 hour but it routinely runs out after about 10 minutes before spells that are turn/level.  This seems odd to me.  Is there a time conversion going on that I am not aware of?

One turn=ten rounds=one minute
One hour=two minutes RL

Actually one hour is 4 turns on Layo, which is 4 RL minutes.

If you are level 14 it will run out ten minutes before your other spells.

Gah... Silly me relying on the nwn book instead of looking at the Layo time conversion chart:

Great.  Thanks a lot.  That does seem like a very short duration.  Has anyone every suggested that it be turn/level like most other buff type spells?  Seems like it would be tough to make good use of it with such a short duration.  You would kind of have to know you were about to need a higher save and then cast it.
