[QUOTE="Dandu, post: 6720017, member: 85158"] Please explain to this poor unfortunate soul that power notation is not generally used in Dungeons and Dragons. Maybe it was Improved Familiar? :p Such rapid character development. What more can you ask for in a player? To be fair, typhoons, thunderstorms, etc both occur over the sea. Please let him do this. Elemental Savant is a great way to nerf a character. Don't worry, he took so many lightning spells I bet that counts. This is very interesting, as a Githcraft Mithril Chain Shirt (with, I think, one other property) is used for spellcasters who want to wear armor with 0% ACP. So he's mimicking something he's seen others do, but very poorly. Again, you should let him have it. It turns all his energy spells to be lightning damage, which means he cries every time something with lightning resistance or immunity shows up. And it's a relatively common immunity. Terribly disappointing, as Alter Self into a Troglodyte gets you more AC, unless you specifically need touch AC. [URL="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/equipment/weapons.htm#weaponDescriptions"]A longspear is a simple two handed melee weapon.[/URL] The interesting thing here is that a Stalwart Sorcerer gains one martial weapon proficiency, so either he's intentionally using a weaker weapon than what he can get, or he didn't read that far. [URL="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/equipment/weapons.htm#weaponCategories"]Actually, a small reach weapon has 10ft reach.[/URL] See below for why not. Smack him around, but keep in mind that some of the things he's trying are, in fact, correct. [/QUOTE]
