Judgement Day (Full)

[Pyrex]

Ok. Thanks for checking. Either it's in another book or I'm just plain confused.

I think the one you may be thinking of is Mind over Body from Player's Guide to Faerun.

On first level you add either your int or charisma to your hit points instead of con modifier and after that you use con modifier as normal. In addition to that you gain +1 hp for each metamagic feat you have.

 

[Pyrex]

No, I'm pretty sure that wasn't it.

*wonders where he could have seen it*

 

[Wrahn]

LOL, I checked with a friend about the exact same thing Pyrex. He said it was an ability of some undead, not a feat.

 

[Pyrex]

That explains it. Nice to know I'm not losing my mind.

 

[Endovior]

Hmm, that's another time I've seen that...

Quick note: Buying Wish spells is cheaper then buying those books.

Observe:
The price of a Wish spell: 26530 Gp (caster level * spell level * 10; from the services table in the PHB, assume a 17th level Wizard for maximum savings)
The price of 5 Wish spells (in rapid succession, presumably): 132650
The price of a +5 book: 137500
The difference: 4850 Gp

At Epic level, you probably don't care, but note that it goes up to a full 29100 Gp if you're planning on boosting all 6. And that's one more minor item in your arsenal... that just might make all the difference. Or not. Use as you will.

Endovior, Rkhet posted this in response to your recommendation earlier:

SRD:

"If the additional costs put the spell’s total cost above 3,000 gp, that spell is not generally available."

That's from the same Goods and Services table of the PHB. So you'd need a DM ruling to say whether or not you can hire someone to Wish you up, because it's "not generally available."

You know, I had a thread about this subject that almost came to blows (Fairly impressive on the net). Did you include the extra cost of the spell itself? I think an XP sucking spell costs extra (might be 1 gp per xp, but that bumps the cost up)

At the cost of going off-topic, how did that work? Psionics?

Questions to the DM:

1. If I Shapechange into another monster, do I keep the inherent bonuses on my physical ability scores?

2. Can I make use of my items if I Shapechange into incorporeal undead?

3. There is a spell from Magic of Faerun, Favor of Ilmater, that I'd like to use. Can I? I'll rename it to Favor of the Martyr or something.

[edit: actually, nevermind the spell. It says Ilmater clerics only.]
