    Spell Component Pouch

    Eschew Materials is useless for Launch Bolt- the bolt isn't just the material component, it's also the target, so you still need it to cast the spell. The only difference is that unless you have Eschew Materials, the bolt disappears after it hits. Otherwise, Launch Bolt + Eschew Materials would...

    Reading higher level scrolls - how?

    Another use for Practised Spellcaster- boosting caster level so you can cast the spells from scrolls that you would have been able to cast had you not lost spellcasting levels.

    Refusing to come back from the dead

    PHB page 171, under Bringing Back the Dead. "A soul knows the name, alignment and patron deity (if any) of a character attempting to raise it, and may refuse to return on that basis." Edit: Ninja'd- but I didn't know it was SRD!

    Broken Spells in SC and Broken Items in MIC?

    The Shirt notifies you whenever a Level 4 or lower healing spell is cast within 30 feet. If a healing spell (any, not just 4th level or lower) is cast within 30 feet, 3 times a day you can have it affect you instead of the intended target. 8000gp. The potential exploit I see with this is that...

    Hallow/Unhallow: after you leave the area

    Really? Hallow's duration doesn't say Concentration, so the spell should keep going. After all, this effect costs thousands of gp in material components and lasts for a year- so it shouldn't disappear when you step outside the 40-ft radius. However, the spell only affects those inside the...

    Im new to D&D HELP PLZ!!!

    Wielding a greataxe when you have WF: Greatsword? Why? I appreciate the Greatsword costs 30gp more, but even at 1st level you should afford that. After all, you should buy your weapon first- you can wear hide or studded leather for the first few encounters until you get enough loot to upgrade.

    Im new to D&D HELP PLZ!!!

    "Just some tips on character building" doesn't help us very much. If you said what sort of character you wanted to make and which books you have access to/ your DM is allowing, we could help more. Some questions: Which race do you want your character to be? Which level are you starting at? If...

    Giving +2 worth of class levels to dragons

    Sorcerer levels are actually excellent for a spellcasting dragon- not only do they stack with the dragon's spellcasting, but dragon gets a familiar which is much more powerful than a PC spellcaster's/. It has half the dragon's (superb) HP and the dragon's (superb) BAB and saves, making it great...

    Underwater Breath Weapons

    Fire- cone of steam Cold- cone of freezing water, possibly resulting in a 40-foot cone-shaped iceberg with the PCs in the middle of it! Gases are trickier. They'd work underwater, but I'd describe the visual difference between a breath weapon in and out of water as like the difference between...

    What's the name for a large group of marching soldiers?

    Some corrections: it's corps not corp- although pronounced core not corpse! Fire teams (4 men) are the smallest independently manoeuvring unit in most armies- although some divinde them into pairs. As far as corps and army go, they're not interchangeable. It's just that an army hasn't deployed...

    OOTS 506: Flanking Crush

    It's because of that spell Xykon cast.

    Apes with claw attacks?

    I think it means 6 feet tall when walking on its knuckles like a gorilla: Something that size would definitely have 10 foot reach. It's the size of a large silverback gorilla IRL. Think of it this way: 10 feet for a gorilla is 2 arm lengths. Stand up, and try and punch something 2 arms...

    OotS 498 is up

    Under normal circumstances Roy would probably have survived the fall- he was unharmed before the meteor swarm hit him, and he almost certainly has over 100hp. Admittedly, so would Xykon even without flying (a whole lot of d12 Hit Dice), but it takes out the dragon.

    Blocking scrying and teleport without magic

    The ultimate Scry-and-teleport-proof sanctum: a lead-lined box in the ribcage of a Colossal Undead. You can't teleport inside another creature, but the Undead is friendly to its owner, so allows him to occupy its space. It's technically non-magical, but you do need to get the undead somehow.

    Oh no, I lost my Bolt of Glory

    A cleric shouldn't be blasting is one problem. You should be summoning, healing (?), and especially buffing!

    Oh no, I lost my Bolt of Glory

    If you're evil, why are you fighting evil outsiders? if it's a Law-Chaos conflict you could ask your DM to homebrew a Lawful (or Chaotic) version of the spell. To get any more ideas, I need to find out more about your character. I take it he's a Cleric, but of which deity? If it's an evil deity...
