Effects

  • Chance of dispelling some/all enchantments on target.
  • This spell (currently, many discussion on serenity ongoing all the time) targets all enchantments (from yourself, for your benefit; from others, trying to damage you) indifferently.
  • Serenity can be blocked like any other spell
  • Serenity is most-effective on mages of lower spell level
  • Serenity is more effective at higher spell level (removes more enchantments) - before casting, getting Magic Favour is a good idea.
  • Serenity is less effective when there is a large power-difference (gap in ranks) between caster and receiver

Serenity and the Decalogue

The spell can be used by green mages only since it is an ultimate spell. Any green mage that is asked to give a serenity has to be very carefull not to break the decalogue (un-guilded coordination) in doing so.

  • the spell can be used in several ways:
    • to remove enchantments on an enemy mage before you attack (e.g. get rid of a green's Plant Growth)
    • to remove enchantments on a friend to save him/her from damage by enemies (e.g. get a rid of a Death and Decay)
    • to remove a lot of enchantments on yourself at once (expensive in m.p. - but fool proof).

The decalogue (and the admins) allow the following uses of the spell

  • Serenity on an enemy, followed by an attack
  • Serenity on an ally
  • Serenity on a guild mate
  • Serenity on a allied guild member
  • Serenity on yourself (duh)

Not allowed is:

  • Serenity from a non-guilded (ND) mage on a non-ally, to remove third-party enchantments.
  • Serenity from a guilded mage on a member of another, non-allied guild
    • i.e. being a member of a guild does not grant you the rights to do serenities on anyone.

If you think, you can contact the game-admin by email, they can investigate and will punish illegal serenity with a Timetwister the first time, and with Fury of God the second time.
