    Excavating a City/Moving tons of sand (Brainteaser: Lots of Math/Physics needed)

    Edited the original post; added more information Bad Paper-The Move Earth spell explicitly says it can't be used for tunneling. Javcs- Dim door shunting is a nice idea, but won't work. Incorpeality is barred as well. Pyrex- The "front door" is rumoured to be a massive barred gate...

    Excavating a City/Moving tons of sand (Brainteaser: Lots of Math/Physics needed)

    Premise: There is an ancient buried city in a desert that you wish to plunder/unearth. The city is completely barred vs. extradimensional/incorporeal travel with powerful magic you can't dispel and multiple walls of force layered in sequence. The city is approximately 2 square miles buried 500...

    Does anyone have a link to relevant post from the Sepulchrave II story hour thread(s)? It seems he/she has more than one and one of them is 377 posts long.

    Design a usable Epic Spell, please, for actual use in a game

    I looked at straight summoning for DC reduction and was disappointed. All I found that could cast spells were Lillends, Couatls, and Celestial Charger Unicorns. Did I miss a gem off either the summon monster or SNA spell lists? Yeah, planar binding would be quite efficient.

    A How-To Guide for Defending a City

    There are many ways to destroy a city, but how about defence? I am curious as to how creative the EN World community is in defending a city on land at levels 1-20. I would like to start an entertaining thread that doesn't involve massive evocation. This should be a thread for all kinds of...

    Design a usable Epic Spell, please, for actual use in a game

    Is this Epic spell legal? I wonder if this spell is legal by the rules, excluding the minor ad hoc factor. I will give a full explanation of how I arrived at the particular numbers. The epic spellcasting rules and seeds can be found at http://www.d20srd.org/ Name: Animal Army (Ritual)...

    Ring of enlarge person?

    Keep in mind that advancing from Medium is Large size is +1 ECL IF you were using the standard monster advancement rules. Having a ring that grants a larger size continuously is quite powerful. Of course not every character would want to be larger sized, but for the melee type the increased...

    Is there a spell that allows extradimensional spaces inside of extradmsnl spaces?

    I have heard that there is a spell that allows characters to carry extradimensional and or nondimensional spaces inside an extradimensional space. Since many adventurers carry a Handy Haversack, using Rope Trick and Magnificent Mansion is difficult since you can't take the Haversack's with you...

    Tomes of Stat Upping: Is there a max?

    Javcs: Here is how you break the non-epic limit. I cut and pasted the fortify seed for you from the SRD. http://www.d20srd.org/srd/epic/seeds/fortify.htm Seed: Fortify Transmutation Spellcraft DC: 17 (see text) Components: V, S Casting Time: 1 minute Range: Touch Target: Creature...

    Clever Use of Prying Eyes Spell (Read a library?)

    Good points and correction to the initial instructions. "Training" the arcane eyes by saying "Research mode..." made me laugh pretty hard. Perhaps it is too Rube Goldberg, which for those of you who haven't googled yet, is an "exceedingly complex device that perform simple tasks in very...

    Is there a way to not lose access to your magic items while wildshaped?

    My character suffers from the classic Druid's Dilemma. If he wildshapes, then his stat enhancement bonus items meld into his form and become nonfunctional, resulting in the loss of many bonus spells and hit points. I'm in a pretty highpowered game with a very generous amount of allowed material.

    Mystic Theurge build, plz help

    I have played some Mystic Theurges in my time and find Craft Wondrous and Extend Spell to be very nice. The buff-up potential for a theurge at higher level is pretty impressive. Assuming it won't be disruptive to the game (both in and out), you can buff the day before and then teleport to your...

    Druids Animal Companion

    Remember that Reduce Animal lasts 1 hour/level, so if you have a very big animal companion you could shrink it back down a bit.

    Continuous Detect Magic

    You could maintain concentration on Detect Magic as a swift action with a DC35 concentration check if you have the Extraordinary Concentration feat from Complete Adventurer, and move a little faster.

    Clever Use of Prying Eyes Spell (Read a library?)

    Poke holes in this if you can, and suggest improvements as well please. I'm sure quite a few casters will enjoy this trick if it holds up. This assumes a 20th level caster, which my character is: The intent here is to use prying eyes to read books and gain the knowledge from them. I find a...

    What would you do with a Volcano? (Epic Spell)

    I find it humorous that everyone assumes Magnus is evil (He is neutral). Some good ideas so far. Volcano spell-- 1,000,000 gold 100 slaves-- 10,000 gold Look on your enemy's face when you pitch their virgin daughters into a volcano--- Priceless!
