Can somebody explain this?

Once you get the Spelldancer up and running, however, you get access to a very simple recursive unlimited ability score loop.

Exactly what is he saying you can do with a spelldancer??

It's a tiresome little trick that is impossible in 3.5 given reduced spell duratinos of the stat buff spells.

Ok... What [bold]was[/bold] the trick because my curiousity is difinitely piqued...?

He's a troll. Just look at the name. Just ignore him, and maybe -- eventually -- he'll go away.

I believe the "trick" required a misinterpretation of the rules, and use of the spelldancer's ability to metamagic spells at low cost.

The basic theory is that the spelldancer can increase his ability scores high enough to give himself bonus spells, and with a duration of perhaps a week. Each day the stat-increasing spells would be cast to greater effect, overlapping the old spell.

Spelldance:

Instead of using a high spell slot, the spelldancer can Spelldance to use metamagic feats. A Spelldancer can spelldance (~Con modifier + Spell dancer level) rounds per day, so a Spelldancer with 16 con can spelldance 4 rounds per day, and could, say cast a double-extended Empowered Endurance, so the next day she way spelldance even more, double-empowering, triple-empowering, to no end. Once Con is High enough, a spelldancer could decide to spelldance for other Stat buff spells

I guess that's the gist of it, correct?

Except that the stat-increasing spells specifically said that you couldn't get bonus spells as a result of the increased stat. Which is why I pointed out that the "trick" required a misinterpretation of the rules.

Apparently multiple mis-intrepretations. Thanks guys - I was just really curious. I realize it's a troll - but even trolls sometimes make good points

In the same way that people sometimes get struck by lightning twice a day...
