[QUOTE="Scion, post: 1446510, member: 5777"] Not much of a change, useing the feat merely gives the caster a couple of extra points above the greater dispel on average, the greater dispel can still do 'better'. Greater dispel can still do more things than dispel magic as well, and as you get higher greater just becomes much better to use all of the time. So for the cost of a feat the character is somewhat better early on, but then are still forced to take the other spell later. Seems all right to me. And personally, if the player pays the cost I would rather that cost be a better choice than not chooseing it at all. Know what I mean? Risk a mdj to take out buffs? There is no risk unless the opponent has an artifact, not very likely one would hope, even at those levels. The disjunction automatically kills all buffs, kills the opponents magical items, and pretty much renders a good portion of the character balancing system moot. It is a horrible spell. If you are saying that useing the option of maximizing the greater dispel gets rid of the need for disjunction then that is a reason TO allow it. Sounds like a great plan to me! So lets see, allowing this makes it so that a feat choice is more worth it, still isnt much more powerful than just useing the higher level spell, and keeps certain options over while, at the same time, allowing me to give an even better reason to get rid of disjunction? I am sold! Where do I sign up? [/QUOTE]
