But it had a fort save which is a strong save for nearly every melee focussed foe. So, odds were good that--even assuming you managed to hit and score a decent strength penalty, any foe who was a good target would make the save.You bet. My main character's standard first level spells in 3.5 will include Ray of Enfeeblement. (Unless for some reason I decide necromancy is an acceptable banned school). And if you ask me, that's a good thing. Instead of preparing three magic missiles, a shield spell, and a true strike every day, it will be a shield spell, true strike, and a mixture of magic missiles and rays of enfeeblement.It's a sign that there's now a greater number of effective strategies than there used to be. And that's a good thing.</blockquote>
