How do you get this spell anyone? Can't find it on Aurelain's Skill Wheel or in the manual, but I've definately seen it in the game...... also are there any other spells that aren't in the manual? Thanks :|

Keep building level 5 mage guilds, it's probably the spell people want when they learn Dark Magic (I think the other level 5 spell is rather crap).

Use the manual hosted on this site (or the "officially approved fan manuel" on Age of Heroes.). You will find a lot of useful info. inside that you never have any question again.

It's a level 5 dark magic spell which means you need to have expert dark magic. It is also possible to learn it from a dragon utopia.

Generally speaking, isn't puppet master less desirable because of the initiative hitting effect. Wouldn't you rather gain control of the unit immediately? At this point frenzy is more attractive to me.

does frenzy give no retaliation now? that's the main reason i use puppetmaster.

you can beat on that big 'ol enemy stack over and over, and they just sit there and take it.

"thank you sir, may i have another?"

no frenzied units take retal ... but that is even better... at the beginnig of a fight ( frenzy on the grems to atak the titans ... )
but imo those two spells are way more usefull than resurection, teleport or arcan armor ...
necro ftw... halas

Just tested puppet master myself. Sometimes it says the spell "fails" for no good reason.

I wonder when this change was made? (kind of sucks now)

Puppet master is kind of uselessly arguable in Hot Seat mode. Because the color does not change, a friend can argue this out as still his unit and his control. While it cannot harm me as it can harm himself, its still annoying to argue it.

Just right click on the unit twice to bring up the status. If it is under puppet master you will see the icon and duration for it. (Hopefully you have the recent patches.)
