[QUOTE="Jack Simth, post: 2181579, member: 29252"] Those steps are NOT pointless - Explosive Runes are "Permanent until discharged" - so with a few days off from other active spellcasting, your wizard could do quite a few of them, and give them to the party fighter - which are then given to the party rogue/fighter/whatever, who throws several of them into the opponent. Whoever has one then throws it at an opponent. On the Wiz's turn, if someone hit the oppoent with a ER weapon, the Wiz dispels and fails (deliberately) - dealing a bunch of damage to the "target" and anyone nearby. By the book, it should work.... although beware - if it's found out that you do this kind of thing a lot, people will start throwing dispels at your weapon caches to the same effect. Likewise, Dispel is very useful for a caster to have on hand, as it can deal with so many different magical effects, while a Fireball is mostly only useful in combat. Being able to (effectively) hot-swap a Dispel for a Fireball that way could be very handy. [/QUOTE]
