I've got the 3.5 PHB in front of me

[Endur]

One of my friends used to work for a magazine that reviewed upcoming products. He got everything 4 to 8 weeks early ... WOTC, White Wolf, S&S, etc.

He didn't have to sign NDA's or anything else because his job was to review the products and write about what is coming out soon.

The publishing industry will actually put different covers on advance review copies. But the gaming industry just sent him the regular products.

Hey, WotC has to ship the books to distributors at some point . . . .

pfft! Everyone knows that books just magically appear on shelves for people to buy them.
Besides, I'm more interested in the DMG and MM at this point.

I'm sorry if I wasn't clear Roy- I meant the costs to add a spell (scribe) to a wizard's spellbook - the costs were reduced, but we don't know to what. Thanks.

From a scroll, it looks like a wizard needs to spend a day studying the spell, then make a Spellcraft roll (DC 15 + spell's level) with a +2 if it's of the same school as the wizard's specialty. Success means it's been copied, failure means they can't learn that spell until the wizard gains another point of Spellcraft. Successfully copying the spell makes it vanish from the scroll, but failure leaves the scroll intact.

Let's see, things I'd like to know:

Bard Spell List
New Spells
Druid's Wildshape and Spell list

On that note I think I'll remain silent though. I really don't want the bosses to reprimand me.

Whoa.. no monetary cost whatsoever? Unbelievable.

Well know that thsi is goign to be very very busy thread!

The rule Roy cites is the same as 3.0 - he just never informs us as to what the new cost is. Roy - would be great if you could find what the COST is to add spells to the spellback (probably still per page of spellbook). Although, we all understand why you want to be quiet.

Yes, but if you fail you have to wait until you level to try to learn the spell again. Very 2nd edition.

I read that and knew something was off...competely forgot about the money...unless their's something somewhere else about it costing, this should make Wizard players happy.
