That spell was awesome, got them every time. Throw a mimic in the mix and see the players really get mad, or dead.What, no love for fools gold?

Yep. Back when I played 1e, our rule was that any Cleric could do that, but a good one casting Darkness would have to roll against a possible alignment shift (and those were no joke back then). But you could do it if you really needed to. It gave Clerics something very powerful and flexible. Dangerous, but awfully helpful if your back was up against a wall.Remember when evil clerics could cast spells in reverse? That was a cool bit of flavor.
There were some spells that could be cast in reverse regardless of class iirc.Remember when evil clerics could cast spells in reverse? That was a cool bit of flavor.
I agree; the 5e version of stoneskin is extremely boring.I miss the way stoneskin used to work. It is still a spell now, but it has never been taken in my games since 4e came out. Back in 2e we used to have a 'plink' sound which meant there was a stoneskin and you just did no damage on that attack.
Now it is a 4th level spell that grants resistance to non-magical weapons.
Yeah, weren't both Clerics and Wizards able to cast Light/Darkness spells? That's my recollection, now that you mention it.There were some spells that could be cast in reverse regardless of class iirc.
Its been over 20 years since I played 2E or 1E and I only played 1E never DMed. But I think in 2E there were no class restrictions and the spells that could be reversed I think were distinctly. I could be wrong or remembering our interpretation, but I think water breathing could be reversed to air breathing, Enlarge to Shrink, stuff like that.Yeah, weren't both Clerics and Wizards able to cast Light/Darkness spells?

My 5e version is:I agree; the 5e version of stoneskin is extremely boring.
