[QUOTE="Velenne, post: 1144861, member: 1856"] 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 [i]weilder's[/i] ability score and relevant feats to set the DC for saves against their spells." (emphasis mine) Oh re-he-he-heeeeally? Also, it's CL 8 instead of 5, meaning that both the damage and the reflex saves for the last 3 fireballs should have been higher. I've edited these changes into my newest post but left the old ones as-is to avoid lots of retroactive dice rolling. In case you feel like all those dice rollings, Travellios' save DC from the staff is 10 + 3 (Spell Level) + 3 (INT) + 2 (SF & GSF Evocation) = 18. Their damages should have been 30, 31, and 26 respectively. (Instead of 19, 14, and 24- a difference of 30 damage.) [/QUOTE]
