[QUOTE="Lamoni, post: 1433628, member: 12680"] Sorry to annoy you. I didn't feel like I was intentionally misreading the text. It just cought me by surprise. I used the example of my Paladin to show where it would have the most affect. Otherwise going from healing 110 to healing 150 is something, but not as drastic as going from 60 to 120 or 130. I haven't even selected Heal Mount as my third level spell. I have always relied on my lay on hands ability and then just dismissed him if he was getting wounded too badly. I am not sure if I'll take the spell if it does work differently than I thought at first. It will be more tempting though. Yes, I got answers. True, they didn't agree with what I wanted to hear. I was expecting someone to point me to a FAQ, an e-mail, an old errata, a passage in a WOTC splatbook that mentions something about heal, or something similar. I am still not convinced that it should be one way or the other. However, I kept posting and 'arguing' as you say because people would ask questions, and I would still like to know if there is any other evidence than what was given. I am perfectly happy to continue to play as heal restores 10 X caster level... and I probably won't even bring it up with my DM because it will affect very little. Even if I do select Heal Mount as a spell, there will be few occasions where being to heal more than 60 hp will make any difference. (My mount has about 80 hp's and I would be inclined to use it once he dropped to around 25) However, I like finding things in the rules and figuring out what they actually say and mean. I am happy to hear that I am wrong. It isn't critical, and won't really affect me either way... it won't even affect the cleric in the party since she plans to continue with cleric levels and has never even chosen the heal spell. She is content to use cure spells and likes to select offensive ones. -Sorry for the long post. I just wanted to let you know where I was coming from. This is a rules forum where I just thought I'd bring up a rule I noticed. My intentions aren't to abuse them. I don't even think that this one can be abused... but maybe it can if you think hard enough. [/QUOTE]
