I'd rule this like the 'Flicker' Mystery from shadow magic, in the Tome of Magic: Flicker One per round, as an immediate action, you can instantly transfer yourself from your current location to any other spot within a distance of 5 feet per two caster levels. You always arrive at exactly the...

*nods* I do like those, but they can be quite costly in a lot of cases. This was something that i kind of thought of because of that. They're "Add component X to gain Metamagic feat" I'm not talking about adding more components to the spells so much as using hard to get ones. Should the scale...

I don't believe you can actually do this: Based on this "Mithral Mithral Full Plate" would get the benefit of Mithral or Mithral, not both.

I've not finished working out the specifics on this idea, it's still in the concept phase of design. What are your opinions of granting caster level bonuses for rare / unique sources. For example: Fireball - bat guano and a pinch of sulfur. What if you had sulfur from the elemental plane of...

I agree completely and always thought about the same lines, i was asked this because of the Launch Bolt cantrip. "so... can i just keep pulling out bolts from my pouch?" I was considering letting them have it simply because of the non-standard way of thinking, and going by letter of the law...

Warmage (from Complete Arcane) ignores Spell failure from medium armours at 8th level. Duskblade (from PHBII) ignores spell failure from medium armour AND heavy shields by 7th level, not to mention being able to cast spells through their weapon.

There was a recent post on the WotC General Rule FAQ re Vampiric Touch: Given this potential, bumping it's damage output should be looked at carefully.

I played an older character who did this once for RP, as slap said, a good idea is never a waste. If you want to spend the 1st level as a flunk out, I'd say do it. 1st levels have their advantages in just about every class. Not to mention that 1st levels can give you a boost in a weak save. My...

This is true, but you would still be able to get the bonus of wielding 2 weapons of defense, as opposed to 1 and a shield.

This may seem like a silly question, but for those who think ""outside the box"" it matters. How do you rule a spell component pouch stays stocked - is it assumed and not mentioned that the caster is always stopping and picking (sometimes literally) up crap, or do you rule (maybe in a magic...

Not to my knowledge, I think you're best bet would be the Mithral Full Plate of speed (DMGI.220), which gives them haste for 10 rounds / day.

I've been looking through for a topic for a question I have on familiars... I've asked The sage at WotC, like they ever answer real questions... Anyhow, given what's mentioned in this thread I thought this would be a good place to ask it. First let me lay down some citations: PHB.P.54 - "As...

Sorry also forgot to mention; From what i understand about Gate, you can summon a specific named creature if you know one: "...By naming a particular being, or kind of being..." You could name Sarah the Succubus, and she would be pulled through. Deities or Unique beings however aren't...

I wouldn't say so... Consider: You can call a single creature of ANY HD amount, but you can only control a single creature up to your 2xCL, anything more than that is at your own risk. Alternativly you can call and control multiple creatures up to your CL Lets compare. Summon Monster IX...

So true, and Completely forgot about animated shields, that's a very good point right there.

No, PHBII has; Paladin - Charging Smite (lv 5) Ranger - Distracting Strike (Lv 4) Nothing for casting, I just checked ^.^

Sorry I should have mentioned, when i say raw ac potential, I'm not considering multi / prestige class. Yes when you can stack the extra the Dex / Int combo is much better. ^.^

I'm a fan of the dual wielding myself, but for raw AC potential, One defending weapon and the tower shield i mention would be a higher AC (5+9 instead of 5+5) As for the breastplate, as i mentioned, highest Armour AC does come from full plate: Breastplate: 5 AC / 3Dex (5 Dex Mithral) 8/10 AC...

The only thing that comes to mind are the 'Prestige Paladin' and 'Prestige Ranger' from unearthed arcana. They're 15 level prestige classes, but the reqs are such that you still need to be higher than 4th. I double checked my completes, so unless there's something in Complete Champion or some...

I'm still going to say no on this one, we've already determined that you can only perform free actions when taking other actions "Normally". AoO's aren't part of a characters 'normal' actions in combat. (see PHB. 141) Exceptions to the rule are usually written right in, like speaking ("...even...
