Gameplay[]

  • The extra slots and AC bonus apply only when the weapon is visible on the character model. Putting it in an off-hand and equipping a ranged/two handed weapon or "overriding" it with a conjured weapon such as Melf's Minute Meteors will cause the extra slots to be lost. In Enhanced Edition the spells that were in these slots will remain in your spellbook but you need to rest again to be able to cast them.
