Snork Posted January 30 Posted January 30 A shaman has control of a spirit after beating it in spirit combat e.g. ghost or elemental I'm assuming that this is similar to having a spirit in a binding enchantment In other words the spirit can be commanded to do a task and is then free. Would the use of a control spell allow the spirit to be forced to return. For example fire element go and attack the troll then return Quote

Yes, but it has no magic points. 1 hour ago, ajs said: Would the use of a control spell allow the spirit to be forced to return. For example fire element go and attack the troll then return No. You'd need an already bound spirit, you command the spirit and once finished returns to the binding. If a control spell is used before the entity is released, then it can be commanded to perform many actions and return to the binding item. Control spells automatically work against creatures while they are bound in items. RQG 249-250. 1 Quote

No spirit binding or control spell is required. While captured in the fetch, the spirits act as if they are bound (cast spells, provide MP, or release them to perform a single task unless you cast a control spell first).
