[QUOTE="Mathew_Freeman, post: 790090, member: 1846"] I disagree, I don't find it that difficult to remember or work out. After all, on my character sheet I write down my 'normal' attack bonus, say +16/+11 to take a random example. On a spare piece of paper, each session, I write down any changes to this and any spells cast upon me. So if I get a [i]bulls strength[/i] I just write down Str = 22, atk +18/+13 and change the damage. The main sheet remains clear and easy, but the 'running total' sheet becomes messy quickly. Of course, this doesn't always work perfectly (I often forget about [i]bless[/i] effects, for example) but it works well enough. Now when you're a cleric and you're casting [i]divine favour, righteous might, bull's strength, divine power, shield of faith, endurance, owl's wisdom, magic vestment, greater magic weapon[/i] and whatever your local wizard can come up with, and you've got to keep track of durations [b]as well[/b], then you've got a problem :D [/QUOTE]
