1. I need some help on spell selection and combos in general.
2. I need some help on spell selection and combos against a Yuan-ti vampire.
Rav Vaki, Vanara(OA monkey folk), Clr3/Wiz3/MT7
Abilities: Str 14, Dex 20, Con 16, Int 20, Wis 20, Cha 11 (before item bonuses)
Feats: Spellfire Wielder (FRCS), Combat Casting, Spell Focus (evo), Greater Spell Focus (evo), Scribe Scroll, <not decided, thinking Weapon Finesse>
Domains: Destruction, Protection, (not following a deity)
Campaign Special: Regeneration Con+1hp/hr
Items: Bracers of Armor +5, Bookrod (BoEM), Boots of Striding (x2 move), Spell component pouch, Headband of Intellect +6, Periapt of Wisdom +6, Dampening Girdle (belt slot, +4 Con, MS +4), Ring of Protection +5, Gloves of Dexterity +6, Vest of Escape (+4 EA only), Handy Haversack, 50ft silk rope, Familiar Pocket woven into sleeve (hawk familiar), and around 3000 gp.
It looks like I have too much stuff, item cost wise but it's a very hard campaign combat wise (CR +6^ over party level).
I didn't forget to list my weapon; I didn't use my sling or mace much so I sold them off. As I still have about 3000gp, I may buy one now. The reason I don't have my level 12 feat selected yet is because the DM bumped the group up two levels. I have full access to any arcane(Wizard) spell scroll in the PHB.
The group is a Half-Orc Fighter (friend), Gnome Illusionist (indifferent), Anti-paladin human (foe/indifferent, follower of Wee Jas), and my MT.
The party has a loose alliance with both the Yuan-tis and a Mage city (who are at war with each other). The DM is basically making us take sides. Due to some campaign issues I briefly sided with the Yuan-ti. As it happens, the mage town has a huge bounty on the head of the Yuan-ti's leader (the vampire). Rav is a mage and has decided that he should aid the city plus the gold wouldn't hurt.
Current state of things: Anti-paladin and illusionist have a plan to make it appear that the yuan-ti's forces are crushed by hiring a "false" army from another plane and then killing them in a battle just outside the mage town. The fighter and Rav are currently just following their lead. Rav, however, has a plan.
Give the mage towns forces information on two ways to access the Yuan-ti's main base.
Get a vorpal greataxe made for the Halforc (she'll follow Rav's lead). I think I can convince the mage town to loan me the money.
Get some feather tokens: tree, with a shatter spell contingency spell upon full growth. Wind spell of some kind
Daylight scrolls/item
Dispel Magic scrolls/item
Mind-warding scrolls/item
Note: The yuan-ti vampire possesses an intelligent telepathic sword with detect thoughts at will.
