| This spell cuts the resilience of a target creature in half, although it will never cause death directly. |
Agony is a level 5 Necromancy spell which functions as a single-target torment, cutting the target's HP in half. It cannot deal lethal damage, but it can soften up powerful, uninjured targets like hydras or giants to make them more manageable. Like torment, it is worthless against demons, plants, and the undead; unlike torment, it is completely nullified by any degree of life protection. While it never misses, it can be resisted with high magic resistance.
The Pain spell makes a decent finishing blow, affecting the same creatures as Agony itself does.
