  • Invulnerable Skin of Bronze (which stacks with armour)

Comments:

Sting of the Ice Hornets is single target... also, in it's new form in S&S, it's unparriable and... well, the wording could imply it's an all or nothing dodge, but I don't know. It's certainly at least a little harder to dodge than normal.

Internal Flame can be parried with charms, and is thus not a good anti-perfects spell if the target is relying on perfect or semi-perfect parries-- HGD or ItF, for example. It hurts dodge monkies, though, much as Sting of the Ice Hornets will hurt melee parriers.
