[QUOTE="Endarire, post: 856534, member: 11592"] [b]Endarire's "Got Mana?" Strat[/b] Effectively Titled: "Got Mana?" (This works best with a Wizard as it can be done at L17, but it can be done with a sorcerer at later levels, perhaps to greater effect.) Required Materials: Tome & Blood Book of Eldritch Might Recommended Materials: Time Stop scroll Wish scroll Cleric with Restoration, True Resurrection and Regeneration spells Greater Quickening/Empowering/Maximizing metamagic rods High spell resistance vs Dispel Wands of any spell you currently can't cast A forgiving DM Warnings: -Hide Life costs 5000 EX a casting; beware. -Arcana Form makes you disappear in antimagic fields until the AMF or AF ends, whichever is shorter. -Arcana Form only lasts 10 minutes/level. -Blood Magus officially requires being ressed which is why I recommend taking it at L18 after being True Resurrected. -Your DM will probably brand you as a munchkin. Using the spells Hide Life (T&B) which makes you invincible so long as one part of you isn't destroyed and Arcana Form (BoEM) which allows you to cast spells without removing them from spells per day, but at 5 HP/spell level. Official Minimal Procedure: 1: Learn Hide Life and Arcana Form, preferably at L17. Hopefully you can procure Time Stop and Wish scrolls from previous roleplaying or other party wizards. 2: Cast Hide Life and place your part in a very secure place. 3: If you have no more L9 spell slots for the day, wait a day and prepare Arcana Form. 4: Prepare your favorite list of spells, preferably highly metamagicked. 5: Cast Arcana Form. 6: Say the famous powergamer phrase, "Got MILK, Mr. Dragon?" right before you lay the smack down. Additions: -Have the cleric cast Regeneration on you to regain the lost part. -Taking a level in Blood Magus will allow you to increase spell DC by 1 by taking 1 damage as well as take damage instead of using material components. -Metamagic rods allow you to do nasty things with Time Stop, especially when using a rod each of greater Empower/Quicken/Maximize. (This is subject to DM approval.) -Arcana Form allows you to use wands without expending charges at the cost of temporary 1 CON point per charge. Just have the Cleric restore you as needed. Notes on Epic Games: You can use Persistant Spell to make Arcana Form last all day. Add in Improved Metamagic (Metamagic feats require 1 less level to use to a minimum of 1), Auto-Quicken, and Multispell for more magnificient magical massacring. Game away. -EE [/QUOTE]
