[QUOTE="Dark Dragon, post: 868699, member: 1115"] One player (and future DM) in my group came up with an interesting question about [I]Sequester[/I] and [I]Symbol[/I]. Well, here's the spell from the SRD: While the spell is quite harmless as a creature protection, it becomes a problem when used with traps, especially with a Symbol of death. If I interprete the description correctly, it makes the targeted object, e.g. a [i]Symbol[/i], invisible and thus impossible to find for rogues (because it's a non-mechanical trap, it can't be felt around for). [I]Detect Magic[/I] is blocked by the spell, so no help from spell casters. I can't see any reason why a wizard shouldn't cast this spell on every [I]Symbol[/I] or other trap in his home, dungeon, etc. to finish off any intruder. It would become more interesting if the wizard works together with a cleric ([I]Greater Glyph of Warding[/I]...) :eek: Any good rulings about this combo? BTW: What's the material component for [I]Sequester[/I]? It's missing in the SRD. [/QUOTE]
