I'm going to go with a bit of a wordy post, because power gaming is something I'm trying to recover from myself and that I feel I have a reasonable insight into It's really important to understand why he has built his character in a way that's disrupting the game and not just 'how to deal with...

With wield skill and divine insight (both low enough level to be o:yawn:ut into eternal wands) you can nab +25 to any skill, +25 UMD makes using scrolls very viable. A few spells he may use to stop ambushes such as this (which I assume he scried ahead of time?) Magic jar - inhabiting the...

Savage species is a strange strange book, if your DM let's things in that book fly check out page 120. There is a template called incarnate construct. It has -2(minimum 0) level adjustment, this is because it removes all special qualities and special attacks leaving you with your fairly standard...

A unique use would be to create the illusion of a shadow for the express purpose of hiding a shadow dancer. Few people will treat a cloud shaped shadow drifting across the sky, or that of a large flying creature, as particularly suspect.

Ah, I did miss that, the item would have to be custom made, really it looks like just wishing to be immune to a specific SU ability from a specific character is the way to go a 1 is an auto fail on saving throws

Tis true. Sorry let me restate what I mean ^^ In this instance the target is a fighter/bodyguard that is an old NPC. If the NPC, as a specific target, wore the ring of counterspelling then the ring's effect would be to protect the NPC from said spell.

http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/SRD:Ring_of_Counterspells a 4000 GP solution Just counter the protection from X spell? If it is cast on a round by round basis that may be a bit harder, maybe for 2000* GP he will let you make it perminantly active, a bit pricey though

wrong thread tab, sorry!

did you give them a 50% miss chance?

I banned shivering touch ahead of time, the PC's didn't complain. Are you giving your PC's enough forewarning that spells are banned? If so, maybe they just need some time to cool off, clerics and wizards are plenty strong, you could rip half the spells out the game and they should still...

That would make a very interesting artifact!

Always appreciate your fine comb look at idea's when it comes to RAW, and I would agree with pretty much all of it. Maybe I described spike strips wrong, it would be a 5 foot piece of stone/grass whatever you want (one object) with high quality blades sticking upwards from it (probably more...

Dandu gave me this link, and I remembered this thread (all thanks should go to him) Rules of the Game: All About Movement (Part Three) It tells you at the bottom 'Tumbling While Crawling: Though the rules don't say so, there's no reason you can't can tumble 5 feet as a move action when prone...
