A single encounter will almost never last 10 minutes. Normally a few rounds to 1 minute or two maximum. It primarily means that given a little bit of time to rest the barbarian can recover from his fatigue. I wouldn't worry too much about it. If an encounter lasts 10 minutes, well, somethings...

I was looking at this PrC and was pondering creating a dwarven runecaster but I''m wondering about the utility of the rune item creation. Are there any runecasters out there that could offer a bit of advice? Perhaps some pointers on which craft skills to select. It seems you need an awful large...

This is true, however, the method is still valid when comparing spells and meta-magiced spells of equivalent level to determine the best bang-for-your-buck.

Yes, they are allowed together. WotC clarified this I believe in the FAQ. If you think fight defensively is out there, wait till you see a PC with Experitse (+5), ranks in tumble-fight defensively (+3), Off-hand Parry (+2) adds with buckler (+1), Dodge (+1), Twin-Sword Style (+2)-ack. THATs...

Yes, CR usually does not correlate with ECL. A Vampire has a CR +2 on par with the Half-fiend,-celestial, -dragon, etc. templates so you might want to just go with the +3 ECL. Looks pretty balanced, what with all the weaknesses Vampires get...

That's just it. Under the current rules a caster would NOT be able to use the wand. Again, a new spell does not exists on the spell list and does not meet the DMG requirements for wand usage. Though I completely concede the point on the sorcerer. A wizard we can imagine but a Sorc knowing all...

True, but we all know that we DMs must improvise these things when PCs begin doing silly things like waving wands around small enclosed spaces with their entire party looking on as they try to walk up walls, leap into the air, and spit fire. :D Perhaps something more (because admittedly there...

*chuckle* Well, it looks like to me you made the right call Zarthon. That's my interpretation of the feat as well. Players are often unhappy about certain rulings a DM makes, its good form to show your openess to new ideas and all that Zarthon. Hopefully after being right enough times the player...

Agreed. The DMG does present it as such and it would seem the appropriate way to run things as well. It is well and good to accept that experts in their field (such as a wizard) would know how to properly handle the casting of such things. I diagree here however. The requirement still remains...

Shadow64's got it. *nod* Despite what the Sage says, I don't think it's a good idea to allow this option for Spring Attackers. Would require "at least" another feat before such a special ability should be bestowed. upon the character. The rules as they currently exist do not allow this usage. I...

Agreed. "as bright as" does not equate to real sunlight. But it may tick the Vampire off as he wouldn't like it very much. :D

:D See Ethereal makes the Blink spell non-fnctional, heh. Yes, there are just too many "perks" for the Incant PrC, beyond ANY of the metamagic abilties. LOL, gfunk, I worked up a Sorc6/Incant10/ArchMge4, gaaaaahhh wow. Pretty hardcore lol, I can just see the Sorcerer now: "I can get a neat...

I've just been looking at things and the feat progression alone is desirable to a Sorc let alone the metamagic gifts. That's +3 feats a Sorc would otherwise not have. That's a whole heck of alot to spend on Metamagic feats for a sorcerer. Plus the abjuration is neat, a specialization for a...

Lol, what is BBB? :D

I was looking at some PrCs for a Sorc I'm building and I was origianlly going to reply as this came up during my other Sorc post but decided it was too OT to warrant putting it there. Hence, new thread. Likely as not this has been discussed in the past (surely it has). Now for a wizard the PrC...

*nod* What Green Slime said. FR is quality work, many folk who talk smack are either knee jerking, don't care enough to figure out where the balance lies, or have heard about it but never read any of it. In general FR stuff is just good. :D

Boy, that's right. No save, just think if this spell was empowered or energy admixtured. At 6th level that's 7.5d6 and at 8th level that's 10d6, area effect, no save. Wow.

I don't think that's possible, afterall the Daylight spell stats say that this spell may only be cast on an object. A living creature doesn't count as an object I'm afraid.

Wow, so many awesome replies! Well, I guess I'll starts at the top and work my way down. Here's what I've got so far folks...and thanks a million for everyone's input! First, I agree that Spell Pen and Greater Spell Pen are just great feats to have to make sure your magic packs the punch...

I was considering playing a sorcerer for my next character 10-12 lvl range, and I was looking at spending 2 or 3 feats on gaining extra spells to improve on my Sorcerer's flexibility. Has anyone else had experience with this? Was it useful, or is it wiser to spend my feats elsewhere? It looks...
