    Quick Question About Spells Like "Darkness"

    The spell Darkness gives a "20-foot radius" as the area. Does this mean 20 feet up and down as well? This is kind of an inane question and probably has an obvious answer but it doesn't actually give an area or say it's a spread, emanation etc. And if it doesn't go 20 feet up and down also, how...

    Do you study martial arts?

    Arts Jui-Jitsu for a year back in college. I just stopped TaeKwonDo only two weeks ago (after three years of study) due to monetary and time shortages. I have more important things to spend them both on. Martial arts are expensive. I still practice on my own, however. --CT

    [OT] What sport do you Play?

    Sports Currently I don't seem to have time or money to do any real sports. Mostly I run...I always have and probably always will (until my knees explode). Sports I thoroughly enjoy: Soccer (haven't played in years) Skiing (haven't been for a couple of years) Paintball (once again, haven't...

    Tracy Hickman's view of the Dragon #300 sealed section

    Indifference You know, I think I've passed the point of really caring much about things like this. Opinions are like rear-ends: Everybody's got one and they all stink (yes, even mine :)). If Tracy didn't like the whole vile thing he is entitled to do that. I personally didn't really find it...

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    What I just posted was really the only answer. My question was just horribly lengthy. The Sage's answers consisted of: Me: If you take a 10-level, spellcasting prestige class into epic levels (11, 12 and so on) does that prestige class continue to progress in spells/day until caster level 20 is...

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    Huzzah! An Answer! Well, I got an answer...it clears up confusion but then adds more. I emailed the Sage and I'll paraphrase since my question was really lengthy and I don't want to post all the Q's and A's here. "It depends on the class." So there you have it. There is no hard and fast rule...

    Stupid Monetary Constraints

    The kicker: I've never been to GenCon. :( Hopefully next year, when it's in Indiana (yay, shorter drive!), I'll be able to go. But I'd still like to experience it once in Wisconsin. --CT

    Stupid Monetary Constraints

    So I've been ready to go to GenCon ever since I bought my nice little badge. When it arrived I was even more pumped. But, a couple of weeks ago, I simply realized that, while I *can* afford it, I really shouldn't be going (got some big expenses coming up, one of which will be ongoing for quite a...

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    The Epic Hathran was just an example I chose to use. Needless to say, all of the epci PrCs in the "epic insights" article say the same thing. Yeah, it's the contradictions (without clear sets of rules as to why) that confuse me. --CT

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    Not quite... No, he's actually a Ftr/Sor/Battlemage/Stonelord. I just eliminated all the chaff to cut down on confusion, but I think I failed. :) --CT

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    Actually, if you look at the text: "The epic hathran’s caster level increases by 1 per level gained above 10th. The epic hathran’s number of spells per day does not increase after 10th level." That's the way all of the epic insights classes are phrased. But the rest of what you said makes...

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    Clefton Twain And then, to make matters worse, check out the "Epic Insights" feature on WotC's page...NO prestige classes in this web supplement advance beyond 10th as far as gaining spells...and the article specifically states that NONE of them ever will. --CT (thoroughly boggled)

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    So I said "Well, Mr. President, get THIS..." Oy! After looking at the epic web supplement it seems that some prestige classes *do* indeed get spells after 10th. And I was trying to find a pattern (whether they only got spells if they got +1 existing class every level or whatnot) but I can't...

    Oops No problem. I know it kinda sounds like a dumb question because it's so hard to explain. Sorry I kinda jumped down your throat. --CT

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    Whoohoo! Yes yes yes! Finally someone understands! (actually, Henry's first paragraph shows that he seems to understand what I'm saying, too). Battlemage progresses just like a sorcerer or wizard. You get spells every level at +1 spellcasting class level. So, judging from Henry's response...

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    Hmmm So, basically, then, after you hit *character* level 20, you're done with normal spell progression? I guess I was just getting "20th level" confused with caster level of 20. --CT

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    No, I'm not joking, but thanks for asking. Read the epic classes like the Loremaster, for example. It says "the loremaster does not learn additional spells unless she selects the Spell Knowlege feat." So if I have 13 levels of Loremaster but my caster level is not yet 20th, why doesn't the...

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    Does anyone know where the book says this? I see so much contradictory information in the book that I just can't figure out when you get spells and when you don't. I know the core caster classes will continue with spells until they are a 20th level caster but it looks to me that the prestige...

    I'm still confused (epic & spells)

    Alright, I really need guidance. The Loremaster's progression in the ELH states that it doesn't continue to gain spells once it becomes an epic class. The assassin and the blackguard are the same way. So is the only way to gain a normal spell progression after you are epic level (assuming...

    Does my character get spells?

    Oops. Wrong Forum. My Bad Thought I was in the D&D Rules forum. MODS: Move the thread if you wish. Not that you needed my permission. :) --CT (who seems to be only partially here in the mental sense)
