[QUOTE="Wolffenjugend, post: 1271144, member: 11069"] Sure, cohorts/minions and other magic items (w/o verbal command words) can be used, but I was just sorta surprised how effective this tactic would be. A spellcaster might realize someone is readying to counter them, but that still means the spellcaster is limited in his options (i.e. not cast a spell or take out the person readying). A wizard who burns his low-level spells just to exhaust a cleric's silence spells is probably gunna be toast by the time he's accomplished that task. I didn't really address Silent Spell b/c it's been my experience that no one ever takes it. Now I see why they do. But even so, burning a feat and a prepared Silent Dispel Magic is pretty wasteful on the whole. Interesting. Guess what I'm throwing at the party's wizard next session :-) [/QUOTE]
