Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mathew_Freeman" data-source="post: 825714" data-attributes="member: 1846">To answer a few questions about the specifics of the situation...what we know about Tarkane is that he has (gossip says) a high level wizard/evoker type as a close friend (who we're also quite worried about) plus a large magical society of possible Death Cultists <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />So it's safe to assume that he has a good chance of being buffed every day, which as S'mon said, isn't the style of thing he wants.I also think that at the level we're at, and with the new haste rules, which we're using, self buffing clerics are right out anyway. By the time you get all those spells cast the fight is normally over <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" /> One of the main reasons I went for an offensive minded spell casting cleric this time. Flame strike, summon monster, searing light, blade barrier etc etc. Very suitable durations.It might affect the sorceror in the group, we'll have to see what S'mon says, but I don't think it's going to hurt me too much. I've just got to change and adapt my daily spell list to less buffs, which in some ways is good because it frees up some slots for more rounded spells that I don't always have room to cast!Plus please note that double-empowerment is not allowed in the campaign. Again, we've not found it to be a problem so far. In fact, this campaign and this group of players may be the best I've ever played with!S'mon, if you want me to stay out of this thread, just say, OK?</blockquote>
