Re: Is Bestow Curse Spell Good Or Evil?
If we deem the inverse effects to be no more powerful than the normal effects of Bestow Curse then we would end up with everyone who has access to a 5th level Cleric or 7th level Wizard running around with a permanent +6 (untyped) bonus to all ability scores, +4 (untyped) bonus on attack rolls, saves, ability checks and skill checks, and potentially the 50% chance of taking double the number of actions on each of their turns. As a DM I doubt I would let that fly and I don't think I know anyone who would.
I think it's fairly ludicrous to suggest that those inverse effects are remotely equal in power to Bestow Curse's normal effects. However it would also create a world where Remove Curse and Break Enchantment would be used offensively which I find quite amusing.
