Can Greatermalison effect be cumulative as lower resistance? In SoA it comes too handy while followed with finger of death and chromatic orb etc... If sayso worked, it would have excellent value against tough foes in ToB... I just expect so much :)

Yes it is. It is a great thing to use two of these spells in a sequencer and the add spook or polymorph or so as a third spell .... I found it to be very effective.

No...it isn't! When greater malison is cast, the battle script shows "saving throws lowered". But this happens only once after the first cast! So it mustn't be cumulative at all I think.

it cannot be cumulative.. the -4 effect is only once... i put greater malison in a spell sequencer.. all 3 greater malison and i checked the messages.. the effect only happened once...

So is it or is it not?
I've seen two sides now. Maybe the game only shows it once but it is cumulative?

Greater Malison is not cumulative, it would be way too powerful if it was.
But the cleric spell Doom is cumulative, problem is it targets one creature only and gives -2 saving throw penalty.

Yes it's not cumulative,i'v tested myself, "saving throws lowed" showed only once after first cast.
Thanks a lot guys!
