[QUOTE="(Psi)SeveredHead, post: 5376377, member: 1165"] There's no such thing as a "pure lawful" alignment. The closest is lawful neutral, I suppose, which is legal. Are we still talking about the Druid x/Monk 1? Because that seems more of a power boost for the druid than the monk ;) With you so far. But this is heavily campaign-dependent. Monsters very rarely have access to Dispel Magic. I think in the various MMs generally only demons have access to that as a spell-like ability, and only the more powerful ones. But in some campaigns, NPCs are [i]very[/i] common, and encounters with NPC clerics or wizards (with Dispel Magic) could be happening all the time. I'm only concerned with clerics that spend a single round buffing anyway, which is not overpowered IME. Even non-magic-using monsters won't let a cleric spend three or four rounds putting up a buffing suite, barring some very exceptional circumstances. Although this has next to nothing to do with the druid, whose best buff cannot be dispelled. And nothing to do with the monk (while you can buff a monk, you can also buff a fighter, or rogue, or barbarian...). [/QUOTE]
