This spell can be seen as a half-assed [[Blind]] (which paralyses a Stack and it cannot attack at all, if ranged unit or not - if all enemy stacks are paralysed one can safely debuff them further, ressurect and buff own units, kindalike [[Shackles of War]], and they dont retaliate that much when the [[Blind]] is broken via attack) that only works on Ranged troops.

Only really cripples the opposition if their ranged numbers are very vast and they don't have No Range Penalty. Otherwise you're better off using [[Blind]] - ranged attackers are not as powerful as melee ones, but on Expert level it sure helps to not get fired upon that much - depends on how fast the level 7 creatures of the opponent are, [[blind]]ing flyers of a [[Dungeon]] town might be better than casting [[Forgetfulness]] on their ranged units as a first cast.
On the contrary: Blind is more useful (assuming you have it) until you have expert water magic; then the mass effect of Forgetfulness is superior when the enemy has multiple stacks of range troops, especially with units that attack hand-to-hand at half strength.

Bugged. What's listed here is the actual effect.

This spell can be seen as a half-assed Blind that only works on Ranged troops. Only really cripples the opposition if their ranged numbers are very vast and they don't have No Range Penalty. Otherwise you're better off using Blind.

On the contrary: Blind is more useful (assuming you have it) until you have expert water magic; then the mass effect of Forgetfulness is superior when the enemy has multiple stacks of range troops, especially with units that attack hand-to-hand at half strength.
