<div></div>This has come up many times before, but I've not seen it ever answered. Is it Conjur<b>e</b>r or Conjur<b>o</b>r? Here're the discrepancies:<b>Current Forum:</b> <u>Conjurer</u> <i>(http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board?board.id=29)</i><b>In-game:</b> <u>Conjuror</u> <i>(try doing </i>/who all conjurer<i> and </i>/who all conjuror<i>)</i><b>EQ2 Players Profile: </b><u>Conjuror</u> <i>(http://eq2players.station.sony.com/en/pplayer.vm?characterId=211832104)</i><span class="navbar_sep"></span><b>Patch Notes: </b><u>Conjurer</u> <i>(http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=tup&message.id=94#M94)</i><b>EQ2 Players Class Guide Flash Thingy:</b> <u>Conjurer</u> <i>(http://eq2players.station.sony.com/en/classes/index.vm)</i><b>EQ2 Players Class Guide Spell List:</b> <u>Conjurer in banner, Conjuror in list</u> <i>(http://eq2players.station.sony.com/en/classes/index.vm)</i>So.... which is it? <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><i>Edit:On the EQ2 Players Class Guide Spell List, the level list contains Conjuror, but the spell descriptions contain Conjurer. Example:</i><b></b>Conjuror 42Conjuror's Signet An augmentation for the conjurer's summoned minion that grants it a chance to decrease an enemy's cold and heat resist every time it attacks or receives damage.<b></b>:tidE<p>Message Edited by Sol-the-Wise on <span class=date_text>12-14-2005</span> <span class=time_text>11:27 AM</span>

It's .... uh ... Conjur...'er....um....-er...or...um...-or....?  I dunno - they SOUND the same, but I would think it would be ConjurER, as in "one who conjures" stuff - just my 2c. J Wellington Wells <div></div>

<DIV>Technically they are both perfectly valid variations on spelling the word.  I think perhaps the OP's point is that SOE should just pick one and use it consistently and I agree.  I used to be partial to Conjurer but I'm pretty ambivalent now about which one to use.  I just wish they would pick something.  Actually, what picks my .... even more is that I live in a "Luxery" apartment in Qeynos Harbor.  That's just a blatant mis-spelling of the the word - Luxury.  SOE makes games; spelling and grammar are obviously not their forte.</DIV>

<DIV>Well lets break down the word: </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Conjuror/Conjurer:      pronunced: Kong'Jurer</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Kong from the African Island that houses a BIG ape (much like our small purple monkey)</DIV> <DIV>Juror from the latin to sit in judgement.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>So it should be Conjuror which means Big purple ape that sits in judgment of anything that is mean to the person doing the summoning<img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Can you tell I have TOOOO much time on my hands at work today?</DIV>

Perhaps we should switch to "Conjurator" (and for the ladies, "Conjuratrix") ? <div></div>
