Message: <blockquote data-quote="drnuncheon" data-source="post: 1484858" data-attributes="member: 96">In other cases that affect the number of spells you can cast - for example, level drain - the spells are lost immediately:As we can see, not only are the slots lost immediately, but it's taken from spells you haven't cast yet.Correct. And the effects of the spells you cast earlier are not changed, nor are the saving throws.  But your attempt to climb down the mountain is affected, as are all of your future castings.Sorry, see the Energy Drain example.  As the only other effect where one could potentially lose slots, I think it's more than fair to use that as precedent.With your rules, a caster could don a ring of wizardry, fill up all the slots, and then pass it off to his friends, because the slots won't go away when he takes off the ring.  He could put on a headband of intellect for the bonus slots, too, and then keep them around until he cast them.J</blockquote>
