[QUOTE="FormerlyHemlock, post: 7702397, member: 6787650"] I'd characterize it less as "meh" and more as "interesting" and maybe "occasionally useful." It converts Demiplane from a purely defensive panic button/stronghold into which you retreat, into a panic button which you press to retreat and then optionally re-emerge from a few seconds later covered in Haste, Foresight (maybe), Mirror Image, Stoneskin, Protection From Elements, and with a Simulacrum buddy to double your firepower. The other interesting use of Demiplane I can think of is actually the zombiepocalypse (Demiplane stuffed full of Necromancer-charged skeletons and zombies which are now uncontrolled and omnicidal; you Teleport in, cast Demiplane to unleash the zombies, and Teleport back out). Yeah, potentially it is very good in a Combat As War-style game. Even just the potential for tricking General Zod into the Demiplane and then Dispelling it to send him permanently into the Phantom Zone... it's a nice little spell. Probably overkill for a Combat As Sport-style game though, wherein reducing an enemy to zero HP is always good enough. [/QUOTE]
