[QUOTE="mgshamster, post: 7292543, member: 6806321"] You've made a giant error. This character does not have invisibility. He has greater invisibility. That's 5 sorc points *per minute.* Six with subtle. So he's expending 360 sorc points per hour for that one spell, or 8640 points per day. So that's 90 fulls days of short rests for every 24 hours of Greater Invisibility. (It's important to note which spells, because he'll keep changing his spell list to counter any argument you make). We covered this on GitP. His solution to it was to have all spells active at all times AND to only have them up when needed. That way he can both have the necessary sorc points and also have all buffs up before PCs can act. He often went back and forth on his answer, depending on which argument he was trying to counter. If you found a way to hit him, then he demanded to know how you got past his buffs. But if you pointed out that his buffs costs way too many sorc points since his last long rest (which we can time at 10 days due to contingency), then all of a sudden he only had the buffs up when needed - and apparently "when needed" is always several turns before the PCs can act. (Side Note: Notice the theme of him adding things to the PC to counter specific Tactics. It's why this PC is so oddly made. For example, his simulacrum having an Oathbow with purple worm poison? That was a specific build shown to beat this villain and simulacrum in a single round, using only critical hits. Now, this character is using the same exact tactic. Notice how the character also has immunity to poison now? He didn't before. That's new. Watch that first post, and pay attention to the edit times; it's already been edited to change wording based on posts in this thread alone.) [/QUOTE]
