[QUOTE="Victim, post: 1275328, member: 78"] DM: Okay, the orc army looks to be a couple miles away and is marching towards the city. Now would be a good time to prepare some defenses and help rally the troops. Wizard: Nah, I loaded up on big spells. In one minute, my first Reality Maelstorm prepped with War Spell goes off. The planar rift is 2000 feet across, so anyone in the area needs to make DC 30 Will saves to avoid getting dumped to a random plane. The rift creates a windstorm 4000 ft across that sucks anyone failing the DC 30 Ref save into the planar. DM: So you kill just about everything over an area of almost a mile? Wizard: Yep. And it lasts for 2 minutes, so it will also slow their advance. DM: Seems reasonable, since they have to go around, or wait for the Nazgul to dispel it. Wizard: That should give me enough time to fire off my other 2 War maelstorms. If the wraiths start getting close, I'll use Great Rod of Quickening and a Meteor Swarm to hammer them. They aren't interupting my spells. DM: Well, actually, some of the Nazgul failed their saves too. And the winds are strong enough to ground the others. Wizard: Okay, then I fire off my other maelstorms and also use War Mass Devastions. DM: Err, then you blow up the army in about 5 minutes. You only get XP for the Nazgul though. Wizard: Rip off. ---------------------------------------------- The real reason Aragon turned down the One Ring: He liked his ring of permanent Haste and his ring of spell turning better than a crappy ring of Invisibility.
