I honestly don't have any experience using any of the "Reduce Threat" spells because, A - I've never heard anyone ever say anything good about them, and B - -- OK, there isn't a B, it's just that I've always questioned their usefulness and have never expirimented with them. Also, I've always wondered about the "morality?" of influencing my enemies to concentrate their attacks on my friends although In the case of a healer this obviously doesn't apply. But anyway, I have a couple of questions that I thought could best be answered by someone who actually uses this type of spell. Question 1 - do they actually work and to what extent? Question 2 - do opposite school parameters have any effect on their potency? Question 3 - if you answer any of the above and use these spells, what is your school?
