This spell can be seen as a half-assed [[Blind]] (Stack is paralysed and cannot attack at all, if ranged unit or not - if all enemy stacks are paralysed one can safely debuff them further, ressurect and buff own units, kindalike [[Shackles of War]], and they dont retaliate that much when the [[Blind]] is broken via attack)) that only works on Ranged troops.

*{{Cn|Storm Elemental}}s
Only really cripples the opposition if their ranged numbers are very vast and they don't have No Range Penalty. Otherwise you're better off using [[Blind]] - ranged attackers are not as powerful as melee ones, but on Expert level it sure helps to not get fired upon that much - depends on how fast the level 7 creatures of the opponent are, [[blind]]ing flyers of a [[Dungeon]] town might be better than casting [[Forgetfullness]] on their ranged units as a first cast.
*{{Cn|Ice Elemental}}s
 
* {{Cn|Ballista}}
On the other hand, it has a mass effect as opposed to [[Blind]]: Blind is more useful (assuming you have it) until you have expert water magic; then the mass effect of Forgetfulness is superior when the enemy has multiple stacks of range troops, especially with units that attack hand-to-hand at half strength.

Forgetfulness is a 3rd level spell in the School of Water Magic. It is a mind spell that makes an enemy creature(s) unable to use their ranged attack(s) and, to some degree, their melee attack(s).

Bugs: Contrary to description and other spells, advanced level affects all enemy ranged units (fixed in Horn of the Abyss Horn of the Abyss).

The property of Forgetfulness to make troops with ranged attack forget how to use melee attack is more like a bug, because neither in the description nor in the manual it is said about it. Also, a log error is associated with this, which does not take into account the reduced damage from Forgetfulness.
