Dragon Age: Origins Message Board  

There are 10 different special Spell Combinations in the game. For those of you who don't know; these are spells that have cross reactions with each other. So far I've discovered 3. Shatter, Grease Fire, and Paralysis Explosion. You can cause Shatter to occur by casting Cone of Cold or Petrify on an opponent then following up with Stone Fist or Crushing Prison. You can cause Grease Fire by casting Grease then hitting the Grease patch with a Fireball. You can cause Paralysis Explosion by overlapping the Paralysis Glyph with the Repulsion Glyph. Whenever you do a particualr Spell Combination for the first time you get a new codex entry related to it. If anyone discovers more share the info here.

Entropic Death: Cast Death Hex on a opponent then Death Cloud.

Advanced Reanimation: Use the Spell Might power to make the skeleton raised with Animate Dead more powerful.

Flame-Quencher: Cast Blizzard on the previously mention Grease Fire to dispel it.

Nightmare: Cast Sleep on an opponent followed by Horror.

Thanks!

dont foget storm of the century

blizard + thunderstorm

it might require spell might to be active also...not sure.....its also a really good way to kill yourself and party if you aren't careful....

Storm of the Century does indeed require spell might.

Looks amazing to.

The last two are...

Shockwave - Crushing prison + force field.

Improved Drain - Vulnerability Hex + Drain Life or Mana

Grease Fire Grease + Any Fire Spell The grease is set on fire causing minor damage to anyone within while they remain in the area, but the grease effect is lost. Friendly fire is possible.

Flame Quencher Grease Fire + Blizzard Grease Fire is eliminated.

Storm of the Century Spellmight + Blizzard + Tempest Increased lightning damage with a larger radius. Eliminates the Blizzard effects (i.e. knockdown and freeze).

Shattering Petrified/Frozen Enemy + Critical hit/Stone Fist/Crushing Prison Instant kill (higher levels can resist)

Paralysis Explosion Overlapping Glyph of Paralysis + Glyph of Repulsion An instant, large radius, long duration paralysis AOE. Both the glyphs are consumed in the process. Friendly fire is possible.

Nightmare Sleep + Horror The target takes heavy spirit damage, but the sleep effect is lost

Improved Drain Vulnerability Hex + Drain Life/Drain Mana Drain Life/Drain Mana do 2x the damage.

Entropic Death Death Hex + Death Cloud Truly massive spirit damage

Shockwave Force Field + Crushing Prison Damages and knocks back everyone except force-field target, very hard to resist. (Enemy target only - Works if casting Force Field on an ally that has Crushing Prison)

Advanced Reanimation Spell Might + Animate Dead More powerful skeleton with special abilities

That should be every spell. Enjoy^^
