When multiplying, the original summoned Eidolon s health created from the ability is refreshed by setting health, then it creates new Eidolons that cannot multiply. I think this is Check s third EV plus a couple of Inquisitors, that I can see on this site , but only the second I ve managed to complete, and the first I have had the pleasure to blog.

Enigmatic Variations No.1530 – Bare Necessities by Check

“In 24 clues an extra word must be removed before solving; in clue order, the central letters of these words spell out a creative duo and a cryptically abridged introduction to one of their works. Solvers must reveal the BARE NECESSITIES by deleting the contents of some cells in the final grid to form a thematic shape. Chambers Dictionary (2016) is recommended.”

The central letters of the extra words spell LENNON MCCARTNEY OOOOOOOOO, that is, a cryptically abridged introduction to ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE (which starts with the word “love” (O) nine times).

Deleting all letters except instances of L, O, V, and E reveals a heart.

Please post a comment if the explanations are not clear.

(I originally thought that we were meant to delete the letters L, O, V, and E. Thanks to mc_rapper67!)

Another good crossword by a setter that I have encountered only twice before (here and elsewhere). Of several very good clues I liked 45a SCHNAPS especially – it was one of my last few in, and it helped me to get JAMS, another witty clue. As for the endgame, I understood the first part of the collected letters (LENNON MCCARTNEY) clearly enough, but the other part made no more sense than the second half of the preamble. Knowing so little about the subject, and wishing to do some justice to the theme, I decided to ask a friend who knows a lot about the subject what OOOOOOOOO might represent given only LENNON MCCARTNEY as a clue. She duly came back with the intro and the song title! The completed grid is a pangram, by the way. Thanks to Check for another good crossword, which I found quite meaty. If I try another puzzle by this setter I would hope to get a lot further with the endgame and theme than I did here. And thanks to Mister Sting for the blog.

Thanks, Mister Sting, and Check… I wasn’t sure whether ‘some’ might mean ‘most of’, and we were supposed to only leave the L-O-V-E letters, giving a heart, as opposed to a heart-shaped hole? I compromised by pasting two copies of the grid onto a piece of A4 and taking LOVE out of one, leaving LOVE in the other and scanning that for submission…time will tell!

Time has told…the ‘official’ solution on the BD site says to leave only L-O-V-E…which means the use of ‘some’ was a little misleading!…

Reviews for "Maximizing the Potential of the Enigmatic Spell Bar"

1. Jane - 2/5 - The Enigmatic Spell Bar was a disappointment for me. The overall atmosphere was lacking, with dim lighting and an overwhelming scent of incense. The drinks were also overpriced and underwhelming in terms of taste. The staff seemed disinterested and offered minimal explanations about the concoctions they were serving. Overall, it felt like a gimmick rather than a genuine place for magical experiences. I won't be returning.

The place was overcrowded, and it took ages to get a drink. Unfortunately, the cocktails were nothing special, and the prices were exorbitant. The staff seemed more focused on their appearance than providing a good experience. I regret wasting my time and money here.

The atmosphere was dimly lit, making it hard to appreciate the details of the decorations. The prices were on the higher side, which didn't match the overall experience. It's a place to visit if you're curious, but don't expect mind-blowing cocktails or enchanting ambiance.

5. Emily - 2/5 - The Enigmatic Spell Bar left me feeling underwhelmed. The whole magical theme seemed like a mere facade without any substance. The drinks were average at best, and the prices didn't justify the quality. The staff seemed disinterested and lacked knowledge about the drinks they were serving.
