[QUOTE="Finnman, post: 6839719, member: 6824272"] Huuuuge props for this guide, I've been using it since the Beta :) I HATE the errata for Scorching Ray. Multiple dice rolls mean more chances to MISS, and I almost never use this spell because my luck has been consistently terrible with this. I'm not sure how the math checks out at that level, but I've never felt this was OP, even with my fire dragon Sorc. Also, I'm not sure if this is a power optimization guide specifically, but some of the RP utilities seem to be underrated by this guide. Considering the high CHA, lots of potential to play an effectively deceptive caster character, with the use of disguises and other such utilities. Being a dragon with shield, I feel comfortable taking the risk of impersonating someone in an enemy camp, for intel or sabotage, or even to avoid a combat entirely. If this game was only combat, then obviously "no dice", but I can think of endless utility for some of the RP heavy abilities with the potential to take entire groups of enemies out of combat without having to waste a fireball :) [/QUOTE]
