Weather control. Specifically the ability to clear the !@*(&!@$ fog, on some setups you end up basically blind. :)

Hit your ~ key to open up the console (and for the benefit of any reading this who have never used the console or the ~, key it's almost always to the left of your 1 key above your ASDW.)

Enter this command, minus the quotation marks- "mainscene.fog 0" and hit enter.

This turns off the graphical "layer" that represents the fog/airborne visual obstruction 9 times out of 10 in your NWN client. You can turn it back on with "mainscene.fog 1" after hitting your ~ key again (because sometimes there's some really cool visual content in this layer that doesn't horribly obscure your vision, and other times it looks so cool you might not care if you aren't in imminent fear for your life).

If you area transition, the setting will default back to 1 on load-in, so you'll have to reapply it after each one.

Enjoy!

Thanks.

In that case my top wish, esp as a loremaster, is to have wand colouring. Even if it just automatic by spell school... not quite spellbook, but adjacent.

Give blackguard and assassins actual spellbooks
Control Weather (as an epic spell perhaps?)

To name a few :p
Gods can we just remove magic already?

EXPLODE CORPSE!!!

Also Polymorph Self. Yes it currently exists, but I'd like to see it made useable with forms that scale better with level and stay relevant. Give the zombies and umber hulks some love.

More focused/themed transformation spells would be cool too.

I want to see 'forbidden spells'. Spells that cannot be learned on level up, but instead need to be found as scrolls either in dungeon loot, or scribed by other players. It would encourage a master/apprentice dynamic, as wizards will need to turn to one another to learn new spells.
