[QUOTE="Gwarthkam, post: 1004119, member: 1448"] green slime: Thanks for catching the mistakes, this cleric was indeed converted to 3e at level 13. Btw he has Weapon focus [scimitar] and proficiency with it from the War domain. He will choose to drop improved TWF. Most of the time he don't have time to empower the flame blades. You're right about the time it takes to prepare it is very seldom that it happens, only before very important battles that he knows is comming. But the fights that our DM lets us prepare for is in my experience also the toughest and most exciting battles, thats why the fighters are worried. I know it's alot of high level spells for him to burn for a relative little effect, but he is really trying to find a new role for himself as more than an ambulance of "cure whatever" spells. He hates that role. And he can somehow better find motivation for his character by smiting his god's enemies with swords of light (he sees them as lightswords, not flame swords) than running around mending our wounds. I'm not really interested in making this an issue of house rule balance so for me the two questions I would most like answered at this point is: 1: is it 18-20/x2 or 20/x2 for flame blade? 2: Can you wield two flame blades? These questions only refer to the spell itself, it shouldn't matter who is wielding the flame blade etc. Most of the answers I've seen to question 1 have been "I wouldn't allow it", which is reasonable, but I'm looking for a rules based answer. Thanks for the replies [/QUOTE]
