    When I stated playing a cleric in my curent campaign I looked at the Defenders of the Faith and was mostly disappointed. Particularily at the Feats. When deciding which Feats I chose I take the long view, I only get so many so plan ahead. This coupled with the shear Voulume of them its...

    Clerical spell Harm, too powerful?

    i agree, mathamaticly there is NO reason any cleric CANNOT cast Harm, and i agree that asking those kinds of HARD questions should be considered house rules. but then so is adding a save or capping the ammount of damage it does. whith my questions you dont effect a mechanical change but...

    Clerical spell Harm, too powerful?

    =-] heres a spin for you... Why is your cleric casting Harm in the first place? Harm is the channeling of Negative Energy. If your playing a good priest (therefore channeling positive energy when turning) why are you using negative energy. I sure hope your not letting a priest of pelor, or...

    Clerical spell Harm, too powerful?

    the problem with that idea Berk is that the d8 healing spells stop at 4th level, furthurmore there are no real comparable spells at higherlevels. the designers appear to have made HEAL (6th) the arbtrary workhorse of higher level healing. if there WERE comaprable spells then this discusion...

    Clerical spell Harm, too powerful?

    sorry Ice Bear, i miss read the entry on t-attack on page 125. thank you. either way, if the cleric is stoking up on harm, and using them agressivly, he won't have heals. which brings us to the power of heal. if you limit heal, your limiting it because its 'only' 6th level, OR because it...

    Clerical spell Harm, too powerful?

    Ice Bear, how about this. instead of doing the humpty hump with a million kobolds (one of my favorites) use the AoO generated by the touch attack. The TYPE of attack you use is still an option. you don't HAVE to strike, you can trip, or if the target of the Harm is an evil cleric, how about a...

    DMG solution for the Harm spell

    ok, first off, why would you use HARM against an undead. Harm is the 'reverse' of HEAL therefor it HEALS undead. 2nd both are touch spells. and therefore are touch attacks and generate AoO's. 3rd the amount that Harm (and Heal) effect are based upon the recipient NOT the caster. while it...

    reading attack vs invisible caster

    I think one of the problems that most people have with invisibility is that (and we're going back to 1st and 2nd here) it was part of the illusion/phantasm sphere. whili they tried to clean it up in 3E its the Phantasm part that always makes it messy. here are a few reasons why i believe this...

    reading attack vs invisible caster

    sorry Ice Bear, I didn't mean to imply any lack of self thought, and if you infered any, that this responce rectifies any error. as for the Diablo comment....have you played....if you have, have you ever noticed the stark similarities between D20 and Diablo 2? I am not alone in this but i...

    reading attack vs invisible caster

    Ice Bear, Invisibility is an Illusion spell (glamour if I recall correctly) That means you can save against it (disbelieve). that means hes not visible to you any more. But you have to have a reason, and if you have assistance you get bonuses to the save. as for 'cutting the rope', what...

    reading attack vs invisible caster

    If he becomes visible AFTER the spell compleats, you still allow invisibilty to trump READY ATION. You see the Ogre Mage was a known entity (thats why he was ready) But because he was invisible would NOT be susceptible to Counter-spell as there are no 'keys' to make a spellcraft check on. this...
