Message: <blockquote data-quote="Glade Riven" data-source="post: 5687560" data-attributes="member: 86468">So a DM I used to play under ran into a problem - one of his player's talked him into allowing him to play some options out of Complete Arcane from 3.0 in his Pathfinder Campaign. Obviously, issues have arisen, but the DM is the kind who will say "Yes, but anything [broken] you create can and will be used against you."  A solution? Dweomersink Grenades. Works like Dweomersink (Gamemaster's Guide -> Additional Topics -> Hazards), but when the magic blows up in a caster's face, spellcasters who fail their reflex (possibly switching to fortitude or will) recieve a minor Spellblight (Ultimate Magic -> Mastering Magic -> Spellblights) for a number of rounds equal to the caster level of the grenade. Non-casters don't get spellblighted as they aren't casters, but can recieve damage as any temporary buff explosively dispells. Basically, it serves as an anti-magic flashbang. Pricing is the tricky part. I'm thinking the cost of a single-use dispell item is a good place to start, maybe adding a little bit to the cost thanks to the added effect of the temp spellblight. If the spellblight were perminent until removed, I'd probably go with a single use Bestow Curse item, but as it is temporary, I think that would be priced a little high. Thoughts?</blockquote>
