I've got the 3.5 PHB in front of me

[JoeBlank]

Roy's profile indicates he is a game wholesaler. This goes along with the WoTC store employee example mentioned above. Very believable.

And although he has a low post count, we low post count guys have got to stick together. I can't imagine he would troll about something like this.

Keep feeding us info, Roy. (Waiting on the sorcerer scoop, myself.)

What are the scribing costs for Wizards in 3.5??

Hmm, the wizard description refers me to page 99 and then a page in the DMG. Page 99 reads:

"Benefit: You can create a scroll of any spell that you know. Scribing a scroll takes one day for each 1000gp in its base price. The base price of a scroll is its spell level x its caster level x 25gp. To scribe a scroll, you must spend 1/25 of this base price in XP and use up raw materials costing one-half of this base price.

Any scroll that stores a spell with a costly material component or an XP cost also carries a commensurate cost. In addition to the costs derived from the base price, you must expend the material component or pay the XP when scribing the scroll."


I do not have the DMG to see what else is said.

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.

I've been getting most WotC releases about two weeks before it hits the stores, so this isn't so much of a stretch. Would be interested to know what kind of "office" this is though (a magazine, a video game producer, etc.).

It just seems odd to me with how they're trying to hype the Revision and such...and keep other things so silent and secretive until its released. *shrugs* Not complaining though, info is nice. Just curious.

Mayhaps with all the attention I should keep quiet. I don't really want to spoil all the contents, but really just wanted to share that the book looks REMARKABLY like the 3.0 version. I was expecting a lot of cosmetic change only to find almost none.

 

[Enceladus]

Just retype the entire contents of the book here please.

Still static

Err... not exactly static.

Hey, WotC has to ship the books to distributors at some point . . . Worse comes to worse, someone will get tsk-tsked, and Roy will be forced to be silent.

In the meantime, let's let the man speak. Or write, as the case may be.

How are Perform, Jump, & languages handled now?

(PS: Eric, I think I figured out which office that would be, but it's probably not worth the airfare for ya . . . )

It's hard to improve upon perfection

Andy Collins stated today, on his boards, that there are no changes to the speak languages skill in 3.5
