Message: <blockquote data-quote="KarinsDad" data-source="post: 2907174" data-attributes="member: 2011">What's your point? That NPCs should only have 3 good spells available per day?My point is that spells are like guns, and spell casters are like wild west gunfighters. Sure, an NPC might not want to fight. But, anyone out there can be gunning for one, especially if he is a) evil, b) wealthy, c) in a position of power, and/or d) in a position to annoy some other powerful group (i.e. have enemies).So again, why would people who have the power of rocket launchers at the tip of their fingers (who took a while to acquire that level of power) be stupid enough to plan on only one combat per day and a quick 3 round one at that?That's not roleplaying. That's expediency for the sake of a silly DM shortcut. A caster with 40 spells can still be prepared with 10 offensive ones and 10 defensive ones, even if he is planning on doing a lot of other miscellaneous stuff on a given day.</blockquote>
