L39 is the super overkill song and spell effect level. Almost everyone I
know has particle density off now for dungeons, because between spell
effects and songs in close quarters in dungeon, your video slows to a
crawl.

The effects look cool, a party with a bard playing multiple songs looks
like one of those lit up ornamental fountains in front of some public
buildings. But my P2 400 and voodoo2 card dont like them much and I
haven't run across anyone else who doesn't say it slows them down too.
