== Harmful Cure ==

Cure Diease makes you fail against diseases. Wat? -- [[User:Eiji-kun|Eiji-kun]] 02:44, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

:It makes the disease succeed against you. --[[User:Foxwarrior|Foxwarrior]] 23:03, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

::That's just confusing though. Not the effect, the effect is awesome, but the name... there's no way I can translate it to mean what you're saying. -- [[User:Eiji-kun|Eiji-kun]] 00:43, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

:::This might be less confusing, and more consistent with SRD naming conventions, if it were called 'Heal Disease' by analogy with 'Heal Mount'. In 3.5, the word 'Cure' in a spell name is normally followed by the condition the target is cured of. --[[User:Ideasmith|Ideasmith]] 01:05, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

::::Good point. And it remains sufficiently ridiculous for my tastes. --[[User:Foxwarrior|Foxwarrior]] 01:06, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

:::::Personally, I burst out laughing when I noticed the wordplay in this spell. You aren't healing the victim, you're healing the ''disease''! That just cracked me up. --[[User:Luigifan18|Luigifan18]] ([[User talk:Luigifan18|talk]]) 23:04, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
