[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 7512479, member: 19675"] It’s happened to all of us, I suspect. No one springs to mind- though the 2Ed dual-classed Ftr/cleric of Tyr always seemed to have the right weapon for the job...and she only had 2 weapons. (Granted, they were a vorpal longsword and a mace of disruption.) But my favorite exemplar was kind of the negative version of this. I was in a small group- 3 regular players plus one who would join us on occasion- who all DMed in rotation in a high-level campaign. Format typically had each of the players running 2-3 PCs (with no DMPCs), so keeping track of things was part of the challenge. Once, we were in a particularly puzzling magically trapped passageway, and the other player and I tried everything we could think of. Finally, after more than an hour, we decided to have the party retreat & regroup, and called it a night. As we sat around the dinner table, the DM asked why we hadn’t tried a particular spell. We two players looked at each other, considered the spell and our PC resources and then turned to face the DM...”Dude, the only PC in the group with that spell is your top-level wizard.”* So much for THAT adventure. * not only was that spell 9th level, he routinely- to this very day- refuses to share spells from spellbooks.
