Re: Genuinely Broken Things
3.0 Mind Flayers or anything else that could use both Astral Projectonion and Planeshift (either 3.0 or 3.5) are probably broken. Depending on interpretation, those spells used in conjuction probably duplicate all of your equipment permanently although the duplicate equipment is subject to dispellin...
