The lack of Saving throw makes it very good for metamagic (no DC worries), at level 13 a wizard would have to chose between: 91 damage on average with Disintegrate, on a failed ST. (6.th level spell) or 93 damage on average with an empowered, maximzed Scorching Ray, no ST. (7.th level spell)...

Am I the only one who wonders why this is Saving Throw: None ? It resembles the 3.0 Flame Arrow, but is one level lower and, unlike flame arrow, does not allow for a Saving Throw.

We use BAB/3, it works fine.

Wouldn't he be able to just use Moon Blade as a light off-hand weapon? He could just decide that he wielded it as a Short sword? I know it's a bit lame but the description of Moon Blade seems to allow it :/

Thanks for all the replies so far. It surprises me that no one has said that they play it this way or that way, it would seem as if very few use this spell. As for the critical range, would you treat Moon Blade (FR) similarly? And since weapon focus [scimitar] or any bladed weapon focus for...

I've seen a speculation that mage armor gets better with caster level. Are there any changes to its mechanics? Thanks in advance

Is Divine Favor still +1/3 levels? Thank you in advance :)

heh, a wand of flame blade or moon blade. That would resemble a Star Wars Lightsabre very much :)

green slime: Thanks for catching the mistakes, this cleric was indeed converted to 3e at level 13. Btw he has Weapon focus [scimitar] and proficiency with it from the War domain. He will choose to drop improved TWF. Most of the time he don't have time to empower the flame blades. You're...

Destil: We havn't played Flame Blade as ellegible for Power Attack, given that it's a spell, touch attack and no str. bonus etc. would you allow it to be influenced by PA? Yes, it is fun using it :) (or so it seems)

I was thinking of the attack roll, not the damage :)

Yes, so thats only +7 instead of +8 from Divine Power. But how about Divine Favor? I could suspect that it is +1/4 levels instead of +1/3 levels now, to be in line with the change for Greater Magic Weapon. Does anyone have information on this? Sorry if it has been answered before, I don't...

Clark411: Thanks for replying. I think I can buy your argument that it's an evocation spell, otherwise divine favor would add to the damage of a flame strike etc. as well. Oops just found a description of "weaponlike spells in T&B p. 79" it says that spells that gives a bonus to weapon damage...

Yes, the Fighter Characters are fine compared to the Cleric. The Players of the Fighters is a different story, the one with the superbly most powerfull character has chosen Skill Focus [Whining], but it's all just in a friendly atmosphere. Thanks and take care

Yes, good points Plane Sailing. I like the cleric buffing himself and playing Luke Skywalker with his lightswords (flame blades), because it makes him different from me (a sorcerer) magic-wise. Actually it's not really the double or even single empowers that seem to do the trick, it's just the...

In our game the cleric (14) was granted acces to the 2.nd level Druid spell Flame Blade. It was a perfect match for his character concept and in my view not balance altering. It has proven extremely effective though and I have a few questions: 1:can you wield two flame blades? 2: does the...

ah yes, I somehow missed that he had lightning bolt as a 3.rd level spells as well, thanks.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but in Dungeon #100 p. 113 the Wizard Xam'Kras has a maximized lightning bolt memorized as a 7.th level spell?

Thank you. I somehow missed the cumulative aspect.

The wording doesn't rule out that you activate it cost-free after you become shaken, IMO thats to great a benefit. Is it once per encounter, once per day or no restriction? thank you in advance
