LMAO

Just read the story above.

Had an epiphone today looking at the IC thread...

...Realized the Staff of Fire likely had a different CL and save DC than the wand Travellios used in the orc routing. *doh!*

DMG 243: "Staffs have immense utility because ... they use the weilder's ability score and relevant feats to set the DC for saves against their spells." (emphasis mine)

3.5, not 3.0. I've not changed to 3.5 yet, and might never. (There are many parts of 3.5 I intensely dislike). I let Lyrique make changes because I think bards are sub-optimal as written. Psions might get some tweaks when the new PsiHB comes out.

Ah, well, having never had a character with a staff that I can recall, I've never looked too extensively at them. Still, the increased damage is relevant. Is the Reflex still DC 14 then?

If it's pertinent, Lyrique gave Velenne a wand of fireballs originally. While he also has a Staff of Fire that he has used to make walls of fire recently, the boom stick is just a vanilla wand (CL 5) with all the limitations thereof. Of course if he gave you the staff before you took off and I missed that, I'll promptly bury my head in the sand.

Yup. Go play ostarich. We traded wand for staff because He would need the extra "fire Power" where lyrique didn't need all of that.

yes, still a DC of 14. The 3d6 shift would yield about +10 points of damage, five per save. I think I can mentally reconstruct it, so let me adjust the giants' and bears' damage.

Gonna be taking the day off.
