VTM: Bloodlines: How do I dissipate blood shield?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.action,comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg (More info?)

I'm playing Vampire - Bloodlines, and have the bloodshield spell. I
used it to fight a foe in the sewers and beat them. The problem is, the
spell is still working, and when I'm seen on the street, I cause a
Masquerade violation. The instructions for the spell say it is only
dissipated by damage. Will it also disappear in time? If not, is there
another way to dissipate a spelll, or can I cause damage to myself?

Thanks,

P.

Have you tried pressing F8 (which will end all active buffs?)

Go to main menu -> controls. There's a key to stop a discipline
you cast. I usually set it to 't' but I think by default it's a
function key.

IRRC F8 turns off any current stuff you have running....And don't worry
about Masquerade violations, you get PLENTY of masquerade redemption
points later on.

Thanks, guys. Didn't check for that key, duh.

I really like this game, just wish it didn't stutter so much!
