[QUOTE="Scion, post: 2401405, member: 5777"] You are claiming that something written in plain english means something other than what it says. I find that rather unfortunate and am trying to get you to realize that the english is fine, you are just reading too much into it. More than is actually there in fact. Just because you have houseruled it a certain way does not mean that it suddenly makes the raw say something different. This is the rules forum, I dont care if the rules make some crazy, insane thing happen, I'll fix it in my game. But I want to know what crazy, insane things that will happen if I do not change something. A player picking this thing up is perfectly justified to think that his cleric X/wizard Y/Mystic theurge Z has just gotten a nice little boost in power whenever he needs it. If the dm then steps in and tells him that it does something else in his games, fine. If the dm instead steps in and tells the player that they are cheating that is a completely different matter. Not being able to read the english is not an excuse for such a dm. Why does it matter one way or the other what I will do in my own game with relation to this bit of raw? Just because I am not going to use it that way does not mean that isnt what the rule says. Like I said, informed decissions are important. [/QUOTE]
