Inflict Wound

This spell takes into account the Level and Melee (Axe, Club, Sword or Fist Fighting) skill level to determine how much damage you will deal to the target. It does only one-fourth of damage to players, from the amount of damage it does to creatures. The damage is not based upon the melee skill level of the type of weapon you are wielding, but rather on the highest melee skill level of your character. So if you want to effectively use this spell, then the smart play is to always try to use it when in a Blood Rage. The damage range is wide. For a single loose reference point, a level 350 with 100 skill level will cause between 580 and 880 total damage. Useful for long-winded single battles, as it can supersede the damage of Brutal Strike after 5 - 6 turns. Also useful for continuously turning invisible creatures visible again.
