    Warmage...too weak? (Survivability)

    My LG warmage has AC 18 starting. Before i cast a spell. No wizard / sorceror can walk round like that all day until a few levels time. It cant be dispelled, though my touch AC will always be pretty poor. As long as you remember you are a magician, they should be ok.

    Warmage...too weak? (Survivability)

    am about to start playing one for the first time in Living Greyhawk (before it all ends).

    Hi Gary Apologies for any insult you, and others, make take from this but, as we all eventually hit -10 hp, do you intend to have anything RPG related on your headstone? Myself i was thinking, and inspired by Spike Milligan, to have something like "I told you it was trapped'" on mine...

    Gltterdust / Ogre Mage

    if i had it appear originally as an hydra, (ie they donty klnow its an ogre mage) it would freak the party out somewhat wouldnt it? they have good knowledge skills so would likely realise the issues they may have. no one has sunder (even though they dont really need it) ta for input John
