I don't believe there is a limit besides the number of charges. But really this ability isnt too bad, because of the extra cost. Though I believe there is an infusion that grants temporary charges which can defray the cost a bit. The one you have to look out for, and that makes artificiers...

Contingency is a very good spell to have. Also you might speak with your DM about extra spells, Mabye pay for a Blessed Book and get a bunch of free spells or something. Honestly a high level wizard is going to have a lot more spells then the freebies.

A good rogue fighter PRC is Nightsong enforcer. There are some RP requirements but it's really not hard to adapt to any world. From Complete Adventurer page 60. Gives full BAB, ok skills, some sneak attack and a few teamwork based abilities. Reqs is +5 BAB, MS/Hide 10 ranks, Improved init and...

Right now my favorite fighter classes are Duskblade from PHB2, and just about any of the stuff from Tome of Battle. If you have ToB and or expect it to be available I would check out a Crusader or Warblade. Very cool fighter stuff available. A little bit of choice involved in maneuvers but not...

I want to 2nd this. If you are willing to give up your spellcasting. Or if you can maneuver the silence between you and the balor you can keep casting. Either way silence will shut down blasphemy. And just to be clear, I don't mean silence will keep him from casting blasphemy. Silence stops the...

Hehe, when I made that post I had at typed up Complete Warrior, but then decided it must have been from CA. Shouldnt have second guessed myself..:)

I like the dust of sneezing and choking idea, That stuff is just broken. Only downside is it gets whoever activates it also. I would say give it to someone fast, Do your best to make sure he/she wins Initiative and hope they are both within 20 feet of each other. Another option is have each PC...

Ring of blinking - 27k Dusty Rose Prism - 5k Bracers of Natural Armor(assuming DM prices same as amulet) - 50k For the Ring of blinking, you will have a 20% miss chance when attempting to attack enemies. So that might be a problem. Still a nice item. Only way to avoid that is make a ring based...

Arcane Strike from Complete Arcane is another very nice feat for duskblades. The large numbers of spells they have makes it that much more useful.

Patlin nailed it right there. The reason Persistent spell or any other metamagic feats are good is the Artificier ability to apply them to spell completion items like wands and scrolls. You can very quickly get some very powerful buffs running all day. Divine favor, Divine might, Righteous might...

I'm a bit confused as to why the OPs intent is a problem. He want a readied action to go off right before a spell is finished casting. So AFAIK readied actions go off before the trigger right? So he readies X standard action with his trigger being Caster A finishes casting his spell. Caster A...

According to some questions submitted to WOTC Customer service, per RAW the requirements are only for learning the maneuver. If you are willing to accept that or not is up to you. Sourced from this thread on the Optimization forums at WOTC where they have collected a bunch of questions to CS on...

Could try a 1/2 dragon Duskblade(from PHB2). Gets full BAB, and a good amount of casting, though lower level spells. Also gets some nice abilities to fire off spells while in melee. Downside is the spell selection is somewhat bad. No good buffing spells, mostly damage spells really. The...

While that is true, the comment stating that you don't threaten while flat footed isnt supported in the linked text. Now it might be supported somewhere else, but in the links rules for Flat-footed in this thread there is nothing about that.

Part of the problem I have found with a lot of discussions like this is that most people compare the duskblade to the fighter. Which is one of the weakest core classes in my opinion. So stating that a duskblade is more powerful then a fighter =! that it's overpowered. If you honestly feel that a...

He might have confused it with 3.0 Divine power. As far as I can rememeber, 3.0 divine power added some fraction of your caster level to your BAB. If your caster level was over your character level then you could end up with more then full BAB. But I could be remembering wrong.

If I'm remembering some discussions on the minmax forums correctly, the really broken thing about effigies is that most of thier costs are based off HD. However the Creature is just a monster with the effigy template applied. So what you do is instead of a lion effigy, you make a Half-dragon...

Part of the problem with this sentance, You can cast spells that are drawn from the duskblade spell list on page 98, is that the list on pg 98 is actually only the new duskblade spells from PHBII. The actual complete spell list is on page 24. So if you were accepting both statement as...

AFAIK Divine Metamagic only works for divine spells. Don't have my books handy for quotes though. Just going off regular reading of the WOTC Char Optimization boards.

My main problem is the way thier casting abilities progress. The first 5 or 6 levels, they have really horrible casting abilities. Then as soon as they get the next tier of mysteries their casting abilities basically double. Then they start to fall behind again til they get to thier 3rd tier at...
