Fledgling Fyora Old School RPG Love Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I'm rediscovering the Avernum series after not having played it since 2000, and I'm loving it! I'm playing with just the basic, default party on this first-time-in-a-decade playthrough. But I've run into a number of situations in which I need to know Dispel Barrier (or use up a piercing crystal, though I know they don't work for the higher-level barriers). Problem? I feel like I've searched everywhere (including walkthroughs/faqs/etc. online) and I can't figure out how to learn even level 1 of the Dispel Barrier spell. Heck, I don't even know if it's a mage spell or a priest spell! Though I'm guessing mage. Anyway, I'm probably missing something quite obvious, but if some kind soul could set me straight, I'd be grateful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 It's a mage spell. Mairwen in Fort Dranlon will teach the first two levels to you, but you have complete a quest (Dikiyoba forgets exactly which one and who gives it to you) before she'll teach it.

Well-Actually War Trall Ishad Nha Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I think it is: Click to reveal.. Retrieve the Slith Tome from the Sliths of Swamp City. Killing Ssss Thss is a quest from King Micah? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 it took a while to find how to get DB-spell since none of walkthroughs says it and it's like Ishad Nha hints or later at hut near Fort Remote and at Aydin's Tower team gets lvl 3 DB.

Fledgling Fyora CycyX Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Actually, the annoted maps mention it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 You can also learn Dispel Barrier Click to reveal.. in a tunnel just west of Fort Remote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chittering Clawbug Catweasle Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 CycyX and The Mystic are right. The annotated maps mention both ways to find the spell, but you have to look at the right place to find this out. That is one of the reasons that I wrote my own walkthrough.
