[QUOTE="Particle_Man, post: 1878761, member: 892"] Btw, Mystic Theurge with Practiced Spellcaster (twice) helps, but not as much as people seem to think. Allow me to demonstrate: “Hi, I am Martin the indecisive! I am a 3rd wizard/3rd cleric with practiced spellcaster in both classes! I can cast my spells as a 6th level caster!” Walter the Wizard: You suck! I can cast fireball! Clarence the Cleric: You suck, my son! I can heal more often and better than you. Later… “Hi, I am Martin the Mystic Theurge! I am a 3rd wizard/3rd cleric with practiced spellcaster in both classes! And I am a 10th level mystic theurge! I can cast 7th level spells as a 16th level caster!” Walter the Wizard: Congratulations, you almost don’t quite suck. Tell you what. You can buff the rest of the party while I deal with this demon here. [Casts Greater Planar Binding, or Horrid Wilting, or what have you]. Oh, and get out of the way of Clarissa, my cleric cohort! Clarence the Cleric: You suck less, my son! Good for you! Please wait while I turn these vampires, and then Cure Critical on the entire party. And then I will try to fix you up. Too bad you don’t have a Holy Aura to shield you from those evil spells! Oh, please get out of the way of Wanda, my wizard cohort. Martin: No problem! But hey, I still have some spells left! I guess I may not be powerful, but I still have a niche for endurance in casting spells when you guys run out! And, and, I am versatile. I have all these different spells at my command! Huh, isn’t that right guys? [There is a note of pleading in his voice]. Morthos the Warlock (from Complete Arcane): [clears throat] I don’t know how to break this to you gently, but you just lost that niche too. And I am far, far, cooler, by the way. And hands off the staff! It’s one of many that is hand-made by yours truly! Now which scroll spell should I use here, on the off chance that I don’t want to use my infinite supply of invocation power? I made those myself too, by the way. Nice to have “all these different spells at my command”, isn’t it? [a bit snarky, but hey, he is either chaotic or evil or both]. Marin: Nooooooooo! This is the peak of my powers! I go downhill from here! You can’t tell me I still suck! I am doomed to suck worse from here on out! Wait, I’ll get to epic levels. Then I’ll show them. I’ll show them all! [cackles evilly] [/QUOTE]
