[QUOTE="GuardianLurker, post: 79394, member: 786"] I recently realized that my wimpy wizard's combat prep spell was actually long enough that he could miss combats, and drain about a quarter of his overall spells for the day. Right now, as a 4/1 wiz/rogue his complete buff schedule looks something like this Shield Mirror Image Mage Armor Blur Protection from Arrows To which he'll eventually add Cat's Grace Stoneskin and replace Blur with Blink, and Mirror Image with Improved Invisibility. And that's a LOT of spells. Normally, with a wiz, I'd just stand back and not worry about. But I'm going to have to get closer than safe to use the rogue abilities safely, plus I've got a sneaky GM. Anyway, I've been toying with the idea of a single "batch" spell that would let me fire all of them off at once. Here are my first cuts : Well-Armored Sor/Wiz 3 Range : You AoE : Personal Dur : 10 minutes/level Save : None (Harmless) SR: None This spell duplicates the effects of both [i]shield[/i] and [i]mage armor[/i], providing a +4 armor bonus and a +7 cover bonus to AC for the listed duration. Protected Mage Sor/Wiz 4 Range : You AoE : Personal Dur : 10 minutes/level This spell duplicates the effects of [i]shield, mage armor, mirror image, blur[/i], and [i]protection from arrows[/i]; it provides a +4 armor bonus and +7 cover bonus to AC, a 20% miss chance, DR 10/+1 versus projectile weapons, and 1d4+4 illusionary images. Improved Protected Mage Sor/Wiz 6 Range: You AoE : Personal Dur: 10 minutes/level This spell duplicates the effects of [i]shield, mage armor, cat's grace, protection from arrows, blink,[/i] and [i]improved invisibility[/i]; it provides a +4 armor bonus and +7 cover bonus to AC, a 1d4+1 enhancement bonus to Dex, DR 10/+1 versus projectile weapons, a 50% miss chance, and renders the character invisibile. Opinions? [/QUOTE]
