[QUOTE="Crazy Jerome, post: 5879559, member: 54877"] If you want the amusing spectacle of all kinds of cherished illusions crashing into brick walls at high speeds, try this out for size: HP healing spells all do (1d6+Con Mod) per character level, where Con Mod is of the recipient and character level is either the recipient or the caster, whichever is lowest. Naturally, related items and abilities will have similar limits, though perhaps different mods. Mack the Fighter has 30 hit points, fully healed. He is 3rd level, with a Con Mod of +2. A healer of 3rd level or higher, using an appropriate spell (perhaps 3rd level or higher), can heal for 3d6+6. A 1st level healer can only manage 1d6+2 on Mack. The max Mack can be healed is thus 24. As long as his hit points stay north of 6, he can be completely healed, though good luck on rolling max on that 3d6+6 under duress. Of course, to really put the bite in that, you'd want to limit stacking entirely. That gets tricky to track in ways that are worth doing. But even without that restriction, it still makes it tough for some arbitrarily high level caster to effortlessly fully heal. To do that, a healer needs some kind of special ability rider that changes the mod. [/QUOTE]
