It will do that if youre level 20, of course, but VT does damage based on half your level (round down). 1/2 of 15 is 7d6.

The spell description for Spectral Hand says that it can cast any spell of 4th level or less through it. Vampiric touch is a 3rd level spell. Would I be wrong in assuming that I can cast a maximized Vampiric Touch through a Spectral Hand? According to the PHB, spells behave like their...

Aasimer has an ECL of +1 I think, so this won't work for 2nd level. Higher level it will, but thats a 2 level hinderance to your spellcasting ability, and sorcerer is slow enough as it is. To the original poster, Metamagic feats benefit wizards more then sorcerers. The fact that you have to...

In a recent session, I came upon several rules debates that were very adamantly discussd. I was hoping some of you rules lawyers could help me out. 1) Listen vs Invisibility. Subject A is invisible. Subject B(20ft away, wielding a whip with range 30ft) wants to ready an action against A with...

In response to the suggestion for Improved Metamagic, unfortunately you cannot qualify for that feat until 27th level (30 ranks in Spellcraft). And yes, Empower at +1 level is sick... *drools over a 5 times empowered, maximized Vampiric Touch...* Vampiric Touch is one of my favorite spells...

Thanks. Now lets hope my group believes me.

Unfortunately for me, I cannot download the offical Errata for all the D&D rules. (Just accept it) I recently found out that Errata has been added to two things: Empower Spell and True Strike. Empower Spell: Apparantly, it now multiplies ALL numerical effects by 1.5. This means that an...

Don't forget that since Use Magic Device is exclusive, you can only have ranks in it up to your bard level +3. So that means for every level in bard, youre giving up in Wizard spellcasting. For an Item Creation character, I'd go for Cleric with the Magic Domain (said already, but I'm just...

Well, thank Pelor ^_^ Appreciate the clear up.

What prevents a PC from doing the following: A 15th level Wizard PC with the Quickdraw feat owns a Heward's Handy Haversack. He has purchased 5 +1 daggers of defending (40,000gp). Before going into a fight, he casts Greater Magic Weapon on each of the daggers, giving them a +5 enhancement...

No wonder I'm getting smacked around so much. I was right in assuming I am at a huge disadvantage for not owning the books. This seems to be a trend for WOTC. For example, if you don't buy the newest set of Magic:TG, You don't stand a hope of beating someone who spends their paychecks on 6...

Alright, I'll try to get MoF, and also FRCS, if I have the cash (possibly, but there's not many good bookstores in my area...maybe online...) The two places are: PlayByWeb.com--The game is SGW-arena under D&D 3rd. RPOL.net--The game is DnD-Crossroads Arena under Fantasy. I'll try that out...

Another concern: Can PvP combat be fairly adjucated? This is more of a gripe then a concern, as I'm usually on the bad end of an argument. Without going into specifics, it's obvious that some players bend the rules when it benefits them most. The DM can't possibly play referee over every...

Spell Resistance is out of the question. The highest SR you can get is 19 (practically impossible NOT to beat, since theyre all 15th level spellcasters) Ring of counterspells is nice, and I'll probably have to get two of them, spending cash after each round to "refill" them. Ring of...

Hey, interesting suggestion. What happens if the mirror is broken? Would the clone be under my control(player wise)? Seems like a good idea, but I don't want to spend 92000gp if it can be broken easily.

For the barbarian, 200,000gp (standard) For the wizard, 100,000gp (half standard)

Far as I can tell, anything goes. If it's in a book, you can use it.

The Barbarian is a Dwarf, basicly beefed up hp, and hope I can deal enough damage before I get killed. Does little good when I die in two rounds, despite my 200+hp. The Wizard is human(extra feat). He's a necromancer, with Spell Focus and Greater Spell focus-Necromancy, and spell...

The arena style D&D seems to be growing in popularity. Boards are springing up for the sole purpose of PvP matches. Players can create characters of all kinds without worrying about RP. Min/maxers at their best. I, myself, participate in such "sports". But my resources are limited to the...

Gotcha...my real question is, what kind of bonus is granted by a Ring of Force Shield? Is it an armor bonus? Does it stack with Mage Armor? I say no, but since both are force effects, some say otherwise. Does it stack with normal armor (like chainmail)?
