You're right, I overlooked your question. I never use this, but IIRC it increases that character's AC for that round, making him harder to hit, as you suspected. I imagine that it could be useful for the sorcerer or druid in a tough combat. Both are short of hit points and are not only unlikely to hit a tough opponent, but also are unlikely to do much damage if they do hit.Time Lapse - I suspect you mean Time Distortion. If your party is in melée combat and is getting a beating, then this spell will remove them to another part of the area you are in. You can then either run to the next area or cast something like Town Portal to reach somewhere you can heal. There is one case where this spell won't work, and that is when you've previously attracted a different batch of enemies to the area where Time Distortion sends you. In that instance, your party has gone from the frying pan into the fire!
