'''Launch Clockwork Bee''' is a level 3 [[Forgecraft]] spell that creates a fast and powerful-for-its-level [[clockwork bee|mechanical bee]] after a few turns.

[[Forgewright]]s start with this spell in their library.

==Useful Info==
In order to cast this spell, there must be a hostile target in [[LOS]]. After cast, the spell will require 3 extra turns of [[Channeling spell|channeling]] (4 turns total) to actually summon the bee, during which you must [[wait]] and stay still, otherwise the spell is cancelled.

Once the [[clockwork bee]] is summoned, it will fixate on the spell's target, or a random target otherwise. If there is no valid target in LOS at the time of completion, the bee will go dormant.

The bee can attack <code>3 + power/15</code> times before it goes dormant.<ref>{{source ref|0.33.1|spl-summoning.cc|3622}}</ref> It will also go dormant if no hostile targets are available. If dormant, moving into the bee's tile will recharge the bee for the cost of 1 MP, which resets the attack count and summon duration, and heals it by 3-5 HP.<ref>{{source ref|0.33.1|spl-summoning.cc|3749}}</ref>

==Strategy==
This spell works well in corridors, as the bee is durable and heals a little when recharged.

The channelling mechanic makes it dangerous to cast this spell when enemies are already able to attack you, whether they're in melee or have a ranged attack.

==Monster Version==
This mostly works like the player version, though monsters don't need the target to be in LOS once the spell is complete.
