Judgement Day (Full)

Five, actually. He took two epic levels as well. Notice that he didn't pay for inherent bonus tomes in the writeup.

A wish spell can safely generate 25,000 gp per casting. So this character pretty much has an income of 125,000 per day. The wealth limit is out the window, along with the economic system. I have to agree. Legal though it may be, 5 free wishes/day isn't feasible at level 30.

Hmm. This is a tricky one. But from where I read, XP is a cost, not a component. You can cast True Resurrection without the 25000 gp component, but not wish without the 5000 xp cost.

Just following along here...

Yup, that's a problem, but your DM's are gonna need to make a list of banned stuff if they want to prevent this. The Ur Priest and the Heir of Syberus (sp?) have similar abilities, and the Artificer can make items with out any money or Xp cost and with no time spent. These are just a few things that a game like this needs to be aware of/kick in the teeth.

Easy guys, we all know it is broken, we are all aware it is sloppy writing in a "web enhancement" but we need to be aware that this is Jemal's and Albedo's call.

I would imagine that is specifically what the writer thought as well, but the rules say that a component includes xp and expensive material costs.

The Archmage has a similar ability in a class that is harder to qualify for and has to sacrifice permanently a 5th level spell slot to use a specific spell twice per day as a spell like ability and has to spend experience and experience for costly material components if the spell requires them. We all know not all character classes are created equal, but that is ridiculous. Even if he has to spend XP and money to use the spell it is an obnoxious ability.

(i.e using the supernatural Holy Word after jacking up his caster level to 36 Blinds, deafens and paralyzes all characters of 31st level or lower within 40 feet with no save or spell resist, it can't be counter spelled, spell immunity is ineffective. No the more I think about it, the more I think that was a very poorly concieved class.)

 

[Pyrex]

Poorly concieved mechanics? In a WotC product? Surely you jest!

*chuckles*

 

[Endovior]

Well, it's not Holy Word the Archmage is using, on account of Holy Word being divine, and the Archmage being arcane.

In any event, I was experimentally waiting for the other Good Players, on account of having a (quite justified!) fear of being the only Good player. Heck, I'd rather convert to Evil (with me, little more then a minor background rewrite) then be the only Good player.

If the DM's have nothing to say about my character, then I'll be happy to post in the IC thread. Just if I have to restructure my character, then I'd rather do that before posting in the IC thread. What happened to the other folks on the good side?

 

[Kerrz]

There were only four folks on the good side. Three of them have already posted in the IC thread.

This needs to start going live soon. This campaign is already too power-gamish for my blood, and I know my character is not pimped enough to compete. So I'm banking on serious roleplay potential... and it's not coming through. Let's go folks. It's not every day that the world comes to an end.

Well? Nobody's stopping you from making the first post. Get ON with it.
