Well I am completely confused on this issue. I have had two types of
invisibility spells cast on me. One is the magic user type that just shows
"Invisibility" when you right click on the icon. The second one is the
"Invisibility to Undead" that clerics and paladins can cast. I was always
under the impression that our invisibility song functioned like the magic
user type Invisibility spell and as a result was no good against undead,
which I assumed had the innate ability to See Invisiblility (otherwise why
have a distinct spell for it).
These leads into another question, John stated that sometimes the hag casts
See Invisibility on the mobs and thats why they still attack you when you
sing the song. What about other types of mobs? Do any creatures out there
have the innate ability to See Invisibility or do they have to also cast the
See Invisibility spell?
