A counter to be spied upon in that fashion, yes. Which is a good thing, in my opinion: if one wishes to spy, he or she has to do better than put up stealth gear and click the "Hide" button.Deathgrowl wrote:This is almost true. Amplify sure is a way to spot the sneak when you know there's a sneak around. But it's also a counter to being spied upon, being followed when you're intentionally going somewhere you don't want to be followed. You stop at a bottleneck of some kind, cast amplify and C/C and make sure there's no one around.Aelcar wrote:Amplify's counter is the fact that you need to know there is a sneak to pop Amplify.
But indeed, these spells are 6sec/level spells, which means you can't just go around with them all the time.
Incidentally, Alarm spell and closing doors do exactly the same thing.
