Just like to chime in that a 2nd level Blinding Color Surge* or a 2nd level Invisibility* cast defensively (or quickened to avoid the whole issue) can be used to avoid AoO's all together. Cast Spell, walk away. For bonus points, quicken it, cast a Ghost Sound of you walking in the other direction, o...

Ah, my mistake. As a side note, wow, what a horrible spell. Range: Touch too.

I'm pretty sure that if you leave the child alive, you are violating the intent. The spell WAS in the book of Vile Deeds. As a necromancy spell. I think a better question is whether a child-zombie-finger counts.

I played in a party that looted dungeons. We then sold them, to people that wanted to build dungeons. You can put a price on a dungeon. If each character resolves to have a bag of holding type 3, the only reason NOT to steal everything is that you are under time crunch. Literally, this party took th...

Wow, if it is true that at it's peak level it gets 1 6th level spell, then it is worse that I thought. Terribly worse.[br][br]That would mean that it's capstone ability will involve it casting.... wait for it... A QUICKENED HASTE. Wow. Keep in mind that we had to reduce the cost of quickening haste ...

Rogues do it in pairs.

Of course, the ability that it grants is sub-par to two feats[br]Easy Metamagic (Reduce one kind of metamagic by 1)[br][br]Of course if you took this with Quicken Spell, you wouldn't have to choose ONLY which spells it affects, it would affect all of them.[br][br]Beguiler has to be the only way to g...

No reason to be pitiful about your AC before character creation is finished. I am playing an illusionist (Beguiler/UM) atm, and I do a good job of maintaining the 50% miss chance, but it is just that, 50%. At level 9, I have an AC of 22 without trying particularly hard.[br]10 base[br]+2 Amulet of Na...

My longest campaign is over 5 years. It depends on how you count it, but we played about 3x/month for 5 years (8th grade to 12th), and on/off after I went to college (continued at 1-2x/month for freshmen year), and on/off 1x/3months after that. We STILL HAVE all 4 of our original characters. The hig...

I know you will probably hate me for this, but if you are looking at 15 encounters per day as a wizard, you may want to consider the direct damage Reserve Feats in Complete Mage. Range touches are superior to the bow strikes, but cost a feat to do it all day long.[br][br]Please don't hurt me.[br][br...

Thanks go out to you for writing such a good list. I recently recieved the Spell Compendium as a gift, and this has helped significantly to find the spells that I want my wizard to pay inflated prices for the following day.[br][br]Playing an Ultimate Magus, this list is expecially handy. Sculpt is p...
