Notes

This is probably the most effective Augurer combat spell for mobs. The Smaug 1.4a source code shows that the damage is based on a random number between hp/7 to hp/14 which averages to hp*(3/28). The spell can be cast 2.4 times per combat round (exactly 12 casts every 5 rounds). It costs 15 mana per cast. There are no resistances or immunities to spiral blast, so it hits everything.
