    Animate Dead on Multiple Spell Lists

    I'm sorry, I wasn't clear. I mean to say Summon Monster stacking with itself, not to question if it could stack with Animate Dead. That is, to cast Summon Monster I twice to summon two monsters at once. I'm using Summon Monster I to question how stacking works if stacking only occurs where...

    Animate Dead on Multiple Spell Lists

    The stacking rules aren't too specific to this, though. Would casting Summon Monster I apply to stacking rules, too? If I used that spell to summon a Celestial Dog, could I not use that spell to summon another monster until the first spell ended? And then, if someone else casted Summon Monster I...

    Ah, my apologies. Personally, I'd take Greater Dispel for sure. From a defensive point of view, a limited wish best used to to remove harmful effects which usually overlap with what Greater Dispel can remove and many of the big time pains that limited wish might cure and Greater Dispel couldn't...

    Wizard Feat Selection

    Well, without any knowledge of the spells you cast, schools you've taken, or great deal of info on your character, all I can say is to take Metamagic School Focus (Complete Mage) on one (or both) of your Spell Focuses. Taking that feat should make Quicken and Twin Spells a bit more low cost for...

    Reincarnation, Constitution and Hit Points

    It indeed says that "hit points remain unchanged." However, this would be taken out of context as reincarnation causes a level loss and it says everything remains unchanged. Level loss with everything unchanged would be a gross contradiction. If taken in the full context of the spell...

    Animate Dead on Multiple Spell Lists

    More than 6 hours with no reply, not too common around here. Go figure I ask a question that people don't wanna touch with a 60' pole. *sigh* I shall rephrase my question into an open debate. Upon research, I don't blame people for overlooking this thread. This is a question that muddles the...

    It disrupts the natural order of life. Threads long dead and buried will shamble quickly back into their graves. A new thread, fresh with life and dreams of its own, shall burn its candle slowly and remain active and relevant longer.

    Animate Dead on Multiple Spell Lists

    Suppose I have a necromancer PC, Wizard 3/Cleric 3/Mystic Theurge 4, with the Practiced Spellcaster feat. In terms of caster level, I have Wizard 10/Cleric 7. However, I gain access to the Animate Dead spell from both Wizard and Cleric spell lists. If I may control 4 per caster level hitdice of...

    Iron Heart Surge interpretation

    Well, the limitation is that it has to have a duration of 1 or more rounds, which I'd assume means that it has to have a duration. Something like poison or disease might not apply to this when it's something where you just save or keep being sick. But other than that, yeah, this frees you of...

    The ability to fudge and cheat makes DMing fun! Sometimes I roll with a d10 and decide when it's best to add 10 or leave it as is. Dice shouldn't kill players, I should kill players. They can judge their ability as players by what I have to throw at them.

    Questions Regarding Bo9S Maneuvers

    Of course I think too much, I'm a writer and a programmer. If I'm not spending my time rewording my spoken thoughts, I'm translating the algorithms in my head into computer code. Another question, please! I can't seem to find the section on this, but can multiple martial maneuvers be used per...

    Questions Regarding Bo9S Maneuvers

    Wait, didn't you just say one cannot ready maneuvers like that? When you say CAN, do you mean if I COULD? Oh, curse it all! Why does colloquial English allow the interchangeable substitution of common verbs and prepositions? WHY?! (Ironically, that's what's gotten me into this problem in the...

    Yep! I keep my gold for wands of expendable spells and decking out a cohort. Which reminds me of another good one: Leadership. You can never go wrong with having a personal body guard when you don't trust the beatstick who likes to RP his intelligence score.

    Questions Regarding Bo9S Maneuvers

    Thank you for the speedy reply. In some ways that makes it weaker than I thought, in some ways that makes it stronger than I thought. I don't know, I suppose I need to do some heavy testing.

    I'm pretty sure you're right. To double check, I ran it through an algorithm and got 40 successes: 123,124,125,126,134,135,136,145,146,156,234,235,236,245,246,256,321,345,346,356,421,431,432,456,521,531,532,541,542,543,621,631,632,641,642,643,651,652,653,654

    Questions Regarding Bo9S Maneuvers

    Okay, I'm not sure if this is because it's nearly 6am or because I've been looking for a straight answer since 2am, but I'm needing clarification, here. The vocabulary is really screwing me up. First question. This question regards Crusader. It says, "You can ready all five maneuvers you...

    The lists of spells in the sudden line always seem to attract me. It's once per day, but a free empower makes me feel better about myself.

    The RAW are shaky as usual. In my experience, however, this kind of behavior should not be tolerated. A player once came to me and said that moving into the adjacent square of a size large creature with 10' reach as a movement action preceding an attack action doesn't provoke an attack of...

    Binders in Faerun, in the right forum this time.

    Yeah, that's what I'm saying in the last sentence of my post. Any racial/class penalty is put in place to balance things. Removing these penalties normally results in an unbalanced PC. If the RAW penalties don't apply to you in the DM's campaign, then it's a good DM's call to say that the...

    Binders in Faerun, in the right forum this time.

    If the weave does not exist in this realm, then unless your DM likes you, logically you aren't privy to the advantages of the weave, sucks to be outsider. However if this is something that acts as a counterbalance to an otherwise unbalanced race/class, like light-sensitivity for orcs, then it's...
