[QUOTE="Majere, post: 1421391, member: 13916"] Just to agree with a few other people. Our group uses silence all the time, very sneaky-beaky campeign. We throw silences at casters too. Its great.. for like a round 1) Even at relatively higher levels (10-13th) there are alot of decent second level buffs, few people will take more than 2/3 silences. 2) Even with a wnd of silence its taking a spell caster out for a whole ombat to sit an do not alot 3) If you have a problem with cohorts, dont allow spell casting cohorts ? It not like you cant buy a wand of dispel magic and do the same thing even if you house rule silence. 4) Any decent magic user has a rod of metamagic (silence) and/or silence spells prepared. But more than the above, in confined spaces its not a practical solution because it covers the party too. If you happen to be fightings in the middle of a field then the caster has to move yes, but it you are in a house or a corridor, there might not be much room, and the party itself may be in silence and thus its caster in similar problems. Our currnet campeign has alot of confined combat, and in these situations the party itself usually ends up under the silence and unable to heal. Just my 2c Majere [/QUOTE]
