[QUOTE="jefgorbach, post: 5225035, member: 28278"] Ah and there's my point ... you COULDNT have a +25 bc of the cap. It seems an odd question, but how many 3rd level slots (1d20 +10 max) does your very knowledgeable Mage expand before deciding random chance is working against him and perhaps he needs to devote a little more thought into undoing this particular enchantment and start expending his 6th level spell slots (1d20 +20 max) since he's unaware of the difference per-se (in character vs game mechanic knowledge) Granted, he could take the time/effort to extend the DM progression curve by researching a 9th level Even Greater Dispel Magic variant allowing upto +30 CL modifier ... although one might also consider why anyone with THAT level of experience/knowledge would undertake the time/expense involved in the research vs using a 7th level Limited Wish to unravel the enchantment. ie: DM/GDM seem akin to a Hydroelectric Engineer whose been in the field for several decades spending several hours/days attempting to resolve an irksome problem regarding fluid transfer using quadratic equations (+10 max) before realizing he really needs to apply some integral calculus (+20 max) ... not that it'll do much good bc he really needs to apply Bernoullis Theorem (+22), which he cant (even thou he's aware of it) bc doing so would exceed reality's +20 modifier threshold.
