*chuckle* teleport away, scry, scry some more - ahhh, the druid is sleeping - fly, greater invisibility, teleport perhaps 300' above the druid (most druids are outside afterall), silenced delayed evocation, silenced delayed evocation....etc. If the scrys fail, just teleport back to where the...

Feats: Augment Summoning, Empower Spell, Maximize Spell, Spell Girding, Ashbound (Eberron only), Beckon the Frozen (FB), Icy Calling (FB), and the one that lets you add a new fiend to the list (possibly in Fiend Folio - I forget), Divine Disciple (for planar ally and SNA spells as well as...

Now that scares me! You should be virtually invincible. Thank goodness you are on the side of good. ;)

Nah, Druids don't scare me. Just teleport away from them. Now, 17th level wizards, that's a different story.

You get a save right? I am going by my experience in game as a PC in RttToEE and CotSQ. Both times, I was allowed F saves that were a joke (by comparison to the DCs of the spells from the Doomdreamers anyways). I might be a bit jaded though: every one of the 4 characters routinely have F/W...

This may seem like a semantics issue but I always read temp hit points overlapping rather than stacking, such that if you had said two vampiric touches, you would have temp hit points from both, but they would overlap so that if you took 5 pts of dmg you would remove 5 temp hit points from both...

You've got to be kidding. The only thing dangerous about a roper is its ridiculous SR (for parties of equivalent CR anyway).

You have to wonder sometimes...

So it sounds like the only reason to not do this has nothing to do with the game but fiat of the DM. That sounds kind of lame to me. If I was the DM and a player was knowledgable enough to know about efreeti, was sly enough to engineer an appropriate planar binding, and crafty enough to...

Think about it from the perspective of the efreeti though and not the DM. Planar Binding can call an Efreeti and the wizard is within his right to demand a wish. The efreeti can't use them for himself anyway. If the wizard is good enough he would ensure tha the efreeti absolutely cannot break...

So in your planar binding spell you explain that you want them to grant you 3 wishes. That they cannot do anything directly or indirectly to bring about any type of harm (be it physical, mental, spiritual, etc.) to you (which would incidentally include harming those you care about) and that...

In the vein of making a Final Fantasy type summoner, I drafted up stats for Ifrit using an efreeti as the base creature. (Actually, the only thing I did was detail specific feats as opposed to those listed in the MM and give him items). So the next question is how do you summon him? I was...

If you removed the wish granting capability from an Efreet, what level summon monster spell would you suggest adding the efreeti to? Incidentally, why isn't every 11th level wizard using planar binding to summon up an efreeti to get 3 wishes?

That's what I thought too - lightning paraelemental. But when I looked for it, I found nothing. I wonder if its in 2nd Ed stuff...hmmm....just checked 2e MM, and annual compendiums 1-4: nothing.

I am guessing that the silence means there isn't anything out there. So the next question is: Do any monsters exist that could be used to derive a lightning template from? Two prime candidates seem to be the shocker lizard and thunderbird. But neither is amenable to the derivation of a...

Any lightning/electricity template out there? I searched through all the MM's and didn't find anything. I am trying to stat out Ixion from FFX and was going to use a unicorn as the base creature and apply a "lightning template" to it to stay within the mechanics of 3.X (as opposed to just...

Some good suggestions so far but not what I am really going after. The idea of spell thematics certainly would get the description there but it just doesn't sit well with me. From a roleplaying perspective I am going after the whole contacting the outsider and requesting its aid for future...

I am going for something along the lines of the FF series and/or the MtG books. I was thinking something along the lines of making use of planar ally/planar binding spells. The thing is, taking 10 minutes to call planar creatures that would effectively function like Ifrit, Shiva, Odin...

Thanks for all of the replies. Do you think imposing rp'ing restrictions on the pact spells is a good idea. My DM suggests that he doesn't like the way clerics can just cast any spell - he is a fan of 2E spheres that would individualize clerics to specific deities. I agree with him on this...

Thanks for all of the replies. I think the best way to go about this for balance reasons is to follow Pinotages suggestion of increasing the duration. No matter if we disagree on whether or not augment healing applies to the vigor line of spells, we can all agree that if it did, it would be...
