    Dark Seal

    What spells does Dark Seal stack with? Every time I use it I see a message that my Dark Seal effect wears off as I cast the spell! Thanks in advance.

    Dark Seal is pretty much like LNC's ferocity and ARC's Raging Strike/Hawks Eye, Me and a friend use Blood Rite, Dark Seal and Profundity then cast our spells dealing up to 600-700dmg to equal or 10+lvl mobs. The only one of those three that stays is blood rite

    Dark Seal II works very well with Sleep similar to FFxi elemental seal. Did a tele point run the other day with a few LS mates trying to get the higher rank tele points and was able to sleep 75+ mobs using Dark Seal II. Also as mentioned above works very well with Blood Rite/Profundity.

    It's supposed to last for 1 cast, if you read the description you will see this. It stacks with pretty much anything where macc (Magic Accuracy) is a factor

    I use it along with Profundity on my conjurer when nuking.

    Of course, you only have a limited time to take advantage of the effect. If you go for about 15 seconds after using dark seal and don't cast an offensive spell, you'll lose the effect anyway.

    I used it with Bind alot on raptors last night, as I was testing bind, having used it very little. I have 176 piety, and good mag acc, and I had bind only stick once out of every 5-7 times. Tossed up Dark seal II and I was lucky to get it to stick, once out of 5 times. Am I missing something ?

    Yes. Similar to CON's repose, you can only bind monsters that are not moving. If the spell pops while its moving its automatically resisted.
