Hey, im somewhat new to SL, havent played it in years. So heres my problem; I have no idea what spells equipment and relics are most useful due to their nora cost. I see some useful spells but for the nora cost it makes me shy away. Im using a mixed BG thats kind of 60% Draksar but the rest are different. Any advice would be helpful.
It's more deck dependant than most people would think. Banner/Hive/Purge/Quicken end up in pretty much every deck ever. DB/Quickening/Transfusion/Fruit in most. Acid Storm/Burning Sands (that one took a slight hit but still rules if you run a couple of spray champs) -> Tornado -> Firestorm. In that order. Magnetize/Metamagic for utility to taste. Dragon Fear in Durguns. Channeled Violence in Draks. (Call to War*) March for Skeez. (Skeezick Revolt*) Anything not Sandspout in Sand. Mantle is not terrible either. Then you have your Cancel Magic, RB, Minefield, Peridot and DGS that pop up once in a while but are far from autoincludes. You could make a decent argument on some other stuff I did not name (Battle Fatigue 2skills4me) but for the most part, you'd be better off without it. *for now before it gets nurfed even more
Also Acidic Gale should be in any deck you play single player campaigns that have a story in. The AI doesn't use most of its nora, so it is often a 200+ damage spell.
