If this spell succeeds, the caster&#039;s next two melee attacks will [[torment]] the target, halving their HP for each strike.<br /> <br /> [[Necromancer]]s start with this spell in their libaries.<br /> <br /> ==Useful Info==<br /> If Curse of Agony succeeds a [[willpower]] check, it inflicts an Agony enchantment. If the victim is attacked in melee by the caster, it inflicts [[torment]], up to 2 torments. This effect happens after weapon damage is applied. Missed attacks don&#039;t trigger this effect. This is subject to [[negative energy resistance]] and torment resistance as usual. <br /> <br /> The Agony enchantment lasts for 6-8 turns. Recasting the spell on a monster will increase the duration, however, it will not increase or reset the number of torments available.<br /> <br /> Curse of Agony has an [[enchantment power]] multiplier of x2.5, which makes it harder to resist than the usual [[hex]].<br /> <br /> ==Strategy==<br /> Curse of Agony deals considerable damage. It isn&#039;t directly lethal, but it can quickly soften up powerful, uninjured targets like [[hydra]]s or [[giant]]s. However, the caster must be able to survive a few turns in melee. Don&#039;t skimp on the evasion, and prepare a safe line of retreat if things go sour. <br /> <br /> If you haven&#039;t branched into other magic schools, [[Borgnjor&#039;s Vile Clutch]] is a good choice for either an escape tool or a finishing blow.<br /> <br /> ==Monster Version==<br /> Player ghosts with Curse of Agony instead get [[Agony]], a spell which inflicts 1 torment directly (if it succeeds a willpower check).<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> *Curse of Agony was introduced in [[0.31]], replacing the [[Agony]] player spell.</div>
