I've got the D&D Spell Compendium- Any questions?

[Dark Psion]

Yeah, um, no. I mean, I'll have to read the spell, but I can't imagine allowing a druid to wildshape into, say, a dire bear with this spell going. That seems absurdly powerful for a 6th-level spell.

Did any of the Vile Darkness/ Exalted Deeds spells make it into this book?

Any signs of spells from 2nd edition that had not been translated to 3rd?

Any fluff on introducing new spells, crafting with them or things like the Living Spells of Eberron?

Nope, no Vile/Exalted spells I can find.

No old 2nd Ed spells, although the Necromancer Games book Eldrich Sorcery does have them.

And no Eberron stuff was included in the book, although there is a spell called Body of War (Wiz 7) that turns the wizard into a warforged titan. So there maybe some other miscellaneous Eberron stuff scattered in there, but its not marked as such.

No guidelines for making new spells either, or any more on living spells. Its basically just a huge listing of new spells.

Its basically just a huge listing of new spells.

Useful, because they were scattered over a LOT of books.

But, once again, lacking imagination.

Attention WotC: Hire someone with an imagination, ASAP! You just made something with less new and innovative material than the Arms and Equipment Guide 3e! Wake up!

 

[the Jester]

Damn, I just blew a hundred bucks on stuff from the ENWorld GAme Store yesterday- that means this is one must-have that must-wait. :\

Ah, well, at least I'm gettin' a few other must-haves in the meantime...

Ah. Bite of the Werebear is an 8th-level spell. And it requires the hair of a werebear as its material component--no small thing to obtain.

 

[Nightfall]

Omend,

Glad to see I'm not the only one. I know, for me, having a non-evil death god, that deserves something OTHER than Death domain.

 

[Moon-Lancer]

is

Cathedral of Leaves: Spells of the Woodlands

in this in the book as well?

You dident list it, but it seems to me that if i was to take spells from the far corners of the world i would take ones from this first.

also any matrial component that doesent have a price is in your spell component pouch. So players would not have a hard time to get were hair.

bite of the werewolf

Well, bite of the werewolf may have been an 8th level spell before, but it's a 6th level spell in the Spell Compendium.

You two don't seem to be talking about the same spell.

 

[Lord Rasputin]

In this compendium, is there a 0-level enchantment spell (for wizards) other than daze (which doesn't scale with level at all)?
