[QUOTE="Devilkiller, post: 3879778, member: 12360"] Ok, that matches up with what I thought. For your combo toss on Stoneskin (or Heart of Earth) and you're likely to do more damage than you take when you get hit. Toss in Electric Vengeance and the best offense is a good defense ;) Acid Sheathe + Stoneskin is a wicked combo I once used on an NPC bad guy. Actually he Energy Subbed it to Cold and used Lord of the Uttercold to make it half negative energy damage. An interesting side effect of that is that he'd heal any skeletal mount he was riding each round. Of course all this stuff is only good until somebody casts Greater Dispel Magic...hey, where's my super melee ability and the 4 high level spells I just cast? ;) On the other hand, a lot of people never think to dispel... EDIT: regarding healing skeletal mounts, skeletons are immune to cold, so they just get healed by the negative energy damage, anything undead with at least some cold resistance could benefit [/QUOTE]
