gfunk makes an important point about flexibility. For my sorceror I chose to forgo fly and get ghostform (T&B) later since it allows flight. Monster summoning can be very useful but remember that you need to be able to speak with the creature summoned. If you go this route, have a smart...

I do feel your pain. My DM once had a series of swamp encounter planned for us. The party flew over all the encounters invisibly. I learned a lot about DMing a powerful party when I ran Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil. Byuy or borrow a copy of this and just read it. There's some good...

I have a dungeon planned for my group that is only accessible vias dimension door, teleport without error, ghostwalk or other such high level spells. I mean, the group is going to have to use at least 1 very powerful spell just to get in the door (though, there is no door). Also, remember...

can't point to any threads but I can list some Good: Magic Missile, Shield, Ghostform (Tome and Blood), Dimension Door, Dispel Magic, Lightning Bolt, Gedlee's Electric Loop (Magic of Faerun), Summon Monster IV - IX, Improved Invisibility, Glitterdust, Clairaudience/Clairvoyance, Mirror Image...

I would have become a diviner for the extra divination per day [though I really like some necromantic spells.] As a player I love casting things like scry, claraudience, etc... I also saw this character as "Indiana Jones as a Wizard" and so a diviner with an interest in old relics and tomes...

What an excellent idea!

Well, its my PC and the DM has expressed no concern about it at all. The only reason I bring it up is that I've seen objections to it on the boards and I want to try to understand those objections. No, I haven't taken spell focus: divination. My character is currently 5th level (human) and my...

Well, the subject says it all. I've seen this issue come up a few times as a tangental point but its never been its own post. So, why is this okay or not okay?

nevermind

I'm trying very hard to think of a BAD class for this adventure. I can't do it. I think there's something here for everyone.

Ha! No problem. I am pleased to have set up your joke, which was actually funny. Seriously, I have played cross-gender alot - had no problems doing it.

I ran a group of six players - every single one had at least one character death, some had two. We had guest players come in for a sinlge session and their characters died. BTW, check out this. The author of the mod has a message board with tips and advice on how to run it. I found it most...

I played a d10 once. Does that count?

What he said.

Oh - that's a great idea. Thanks Voadam.

I'm either sticking with pure wizard or holding out for Archmage. I like the idea of the loremaster but I dislike the mechanics of the class.

I have a 5th level human Diviner. His feats are: Spellcasting Prodigy, Improved Inititive, Spell Focus: Evocation and now, at 5th level, Extend Spell. What I have in mind for this character is a balanced wizard that's decent at dealing out damage, casting divinations and using buffing...
