You feel the writer's intended for this?I typically use a ring of counter-spelling loaded with dispel magic, but even without, it can still be difficult to dispel something that has a decent caster level. And if the dispeller is high enough level to reliably dispel the symbol, I figure he could instead be using his action to cast nastier (save or die) spells on me anyways.Other strategies to protect your investment:1) Have a high level caster put a cheap 500xp permanent spell on you (it will be hit by an area dispel before your expensive one, saving it).2) Spell-turning or rod of absorption should cancel out targeted dispels</blockquote>
