Re: Tjeck me on this combo.
I probably would allow it. I don't see how it's different from invisibility combined with, say, directing a flaming sphere.

Re: The Difference Engine: Level Loss and Power
No cleric and no scroll of the spell? No town nearby?
It not likely that the party is completely unable to do something about level drain over the next 30 encounters. Then again, maybe my DMs are just "nice" or "not dumb".

Re: The Difference Engine: Level Loss and Power
Well, the rules never say what you should and/or shouldn't track what you gain from a level. They're completely mute on the topic. Since we track all this stuff in our games, it's unreasonable to use Skip's innane ruling in the FAQ.[br][br]IMO, the best way to deal with permanent level loss (from a ...

Ok, Frank, other than proving you have a thesaurus, what exactly is your point? That every sentence must necessarily be taken out of the context in which it was written to be understood as a game rule? Your arguments still leak like a sieve.

Well, you could use the variant from UA. Drop sneak attack for fighter feat progression (UA p58).
