soul slay / mr spells questions

I think you're more or less right AFAIK, for the limited case you're considering.

It'd be pretty lame/uber if Soul Slay always had a good chance to kill anything with a soul. Soul Slay is hugely powerful as it is, if not against very high MR targets.

PvK

what means AFAIK i always forget this

yep you are right a almost always hitting soul slay would be lame i don't want that either i just wanted to know if i did understand the spell right

does a staff of storm prevent all missile fire or just makes it very hard to hit with them ?
does it prevent the use of javelins too ?
the hurled stones from the jotun hurlers ?
in general all physical ranged attacks ?

are there other similiar spells like mind burn / soul slay which have infinite range and always hit (after MRcheck fails )?

i know the drain life spell which has not infinite range but in exchange always hit without MR-check are there any other spells like this ?
