[QUOTE="Brista, post: 818466, member: 11332"] Firstly thank you very much Hypersmurf for pointing out the limitations - I had missed those I will however try again, I still think this is an awesome feat :) Round 1 I teleport home Take 13 Cone of Colds (11 doing 15 d6, 2 maximised for 90 cold damage each) DC 30 Your move (achieved using Haste to get two spells per round, quicken in the final round and contingency to trigger the teleport. There are many spells or situations that would allow you to cast for 6 rounds without being observed, especially on targets who are rulers and need to sit through long court or public appearances) Now in addition to the mistakes that Hypersmurf mentioned I also made a mistake about the metamagic rod. There is no Delay Spell metamagic rod. Now you might be able to persuade a GM of a high level campaign to allow you to craft one. If you can make a rod for Quicken Spell, a +4 feat, then why not? If he does so then 10 DC 34 Mordenkainen's Disjunctions would be a brutal way to start a fight against a group of high level adventurers For pure NPC evil bad guy style how about this: Round 1 Bad guy teleports away cackling maniacally 13 Circle of Deaths go off for 260 HD damage to the PCs army Round 2 Battle starts :) [/QUOTE]
