    Non-Buff Spells For Melee Clerics

    You could also try to cancel (counter) the targeted dispels... two rings of counterspells, a bunch of Battlemagic Perception spells (HoB), and a bunch of dispels yourself. YMMV Mike

    Build a quarterstaff fighter

    You could be a 14th level Cleric... with all the two-weapon fighting feats and cast Shillelagh first, and then Spikes (SC). Both heads would receive: +2 enhancement to attack +10 enhancement to damage doubled threat range This would probably work even better with a Sacred Fist. Mike

    Feats for a Wizard

    And if you're heading towards a PrC for your 6th (or beyond) class level... that will dictate what some or all of your available feats are going to be. If you're heading towards Incantatrix (or Incantatar).. you are going to be a metamagic specialist, and you may want the regional feat Mind...

    Dark Speech & the Warlock

    WoTC does this a lot... If you want to be a human from Calimshan... and have a choice of all of the regional feats available to you in PGtF... you or one of your group has to also own Races of Faerun. Mike

    Point Blank Shot applicable to spells

    Yes, point blank shot applies to all ranged attacks. But not to spells that don't require an attack to hit. A question about point blank shot... from a pointer... Grosse Point Blank! Great Movie! ;) Mike

    Persistant Spell Feat

    Just to make it clear... Persistantable spells must have a personal or fixed range, and "touch" isn't a fixed range. The summoning spells can't be made persistent, as they have a variable range (close). As was noted above... it's the buffs that are valid spells for DM-persistent: divine power...
