Dispel Evil and Good pissed me off SO MUCH when I tried to use it to break the red dragon out of possession in the final fight, and it just didn't do anything.

Compelled Duel is even worse when you consider that Command: Approach exists.

You forgot the classic form of breaking enchantment, bashing the caster's skull in.

stoneskin: terrible defensive spell<br>flesh to stone: terrible offensive spell<br>somehow, transmuting a living being into stone has no combat utility whatsoever in the world of bg3

Also, when bots casting Compelled Duel on you, you're forced out of control and your character uses all expensive potions and scrolls ONLY on the caster lol

I love getting random drops of Seeming scrolls. When everyone leaves to grab a drink or whatever, I'll cast the scroll to confuse people for a moment when they get back.

About Compel Duel, speaking as someone with a little experience modding for DOS2 and BG3. As of right now, not a single modder has figured out how to implement a working tanking/threat system for BG3 or any way to manipulate the AI into attacking a specific target. Nobody figured it out in Divinity Original Sin 2 days and nobody figured it out in BG3 which uses the same engine and most foundations and knowledge about modding it were laid by the same people who laid them back in Divinity Original Sin 2 days.

Making Stoneskin incredibly powerful is actually very easy. Simply subtract 1 from the game's title.

There's one relatively fun and good use for Vampiric Touch: Upcasting it for free with the Staff of Cherished Necromancy (as a Death Cleric). Then you can use it every other turn to finish of an enemy to get fuel for the staff and upcast Inflict Wounds (or some other non-Concentration Necromancy spell).<br>This means you never need a spell slot, and still get to be a great necromancer.

I like how disguise self, a 'visual' change works like alter self and actually changes your size.

There is a part in the late game where you need to travel somewhere fast before a timer runs out that requires you to battle a whole lot of enemies in the process. Wind walk is actually very useful here as it allows you to basically bypass all the enemies that stand in your way and beat the clock.
