Re: "Specialist" Sorcerer I'd definitely go wtih option 2A) one additional spell slot per spell level, usable only for abjuration spells

Really nice summary :) A Large creature is supposed to have reach! No reach, no fun! If two or three (EL 15) of these beasties catch an average party unprepared, they'll rip and Roar them to pieces! Tactics: Launch devastating sonic attack (3x12d6, avg. 126 dmg). This should either help...

On this topic, there is a section in Defenders of the Faith, page 18, called "Converts".

You have to specialize in Abjuration, when you become an Incantatrix! Thus, you have to choose one or more prohibited schools!

> scrolls of expeditious retreat so that they can run away! LOL. :) I suspect they wouldn't use them. Even if they decide to use hit-and-run, they don't do this. > items to give them a chance I let them find 16,000 GP cash in their new manor house. They'll spend them wrong, I'm sure. > My...

I DM'ed this module, too. See Heart of Nightfang Spire. My players were ambushed by the same company. I altered the classes of the NPCs (Brd9, Sor6, pixie Rog3). And included two animated trees, too. But after dropping one (N)PC, I decided to de-animate the trees (they guarded passively the road).

I'm worrying for my party, they are Lvl 9-10, about to enter Heart of Nigthfang Spire. Halfling Brb2/Rog3/Ftr1/Clr2/Shd1, Human Ftr10, Human Ftr8/Sor1, Halfelf Sor6/Rog3. No major arcane or divine spells, no major magic weapons (+2 rapier, +1 flaming longsword). Altough I throw money at them...

It seems like I have to wait another two weeks for this huge adventure... These steel predators are constructs, are they?

Fly simple gives you Speed: fly 90 ft, good. Nothing more. And no flying creature gains automatically a swim speed or swim skill bonuses.

IMO, this ability is good, but as written a little bit to powerful. The bard could easily heal 1,000 hp on level 10. Give it a maximum duration of 10 rounds and 1 ally per three levels, and require 8 ranks. The bard could still perform this several times. This is a supernatural, mind-affecting...

"The spell effectively becomes a ray..." (Reach Spell, DotF)

Yup, and you could counter a Mass Heal with Power Word, Kill.

Re: Coup de grace weapons Actually, IMO this gives the correct text, how a vorpal weapon should be handled. This makes them playable, at least.

Mass Spell wouldn't see Reach Spell. And: A Reach Spelled spell still has no target, it has an effect, a ray. ;)

Another point: Sound Burst is nearly an Mass Hold Monster. Shorter duration, same save DC as Hold Person, not even purely mental actions are allowed.

The arcane(*) caster has to be quite near to his intended targets. *Low hit points, great risk for this guy; An arcane caster is supposed to have some good damage spells. If you can act, you could cast Dispel Magic, or Dimension Door... If you're stunned, you're dead meat.

Re: Mass Spell Feat If you name the spells to which the feat may apply carefully, you might get away with this metamagic feat. Maybe "Range greater than touch and a single target"? For example Haste would qualify, Harm and Fly wouldn't.

From the SRD: No save? A 2nd level area effect spell for Clerics and Bards has two very good effects and offers no save? Sonic Damage plus stunning! IMO, stunning is the next best thing to being held. Compare this spell to Glitterdust (Brd2, Sor/Wiz2). Cancels invisibility, Will save to avoid...

Yes. Creatures with O ft reach suffer an AoO when entering a creature's space. If you mean AC or Attack bonuses, yes, they are already figured in. Don't know. Good question.
