The Terrible Trio

[Pyrex]

Couple quick points:
You can't Chain a Disintegrate because it's 'Effect: Ray' not 'Target: nn'
You can't Chain a Reach spell either, because Reach turns the spell into a Ray.

First, this is fairly broken.

Next, remember, Divine Metamagic has the original feat as a prereq. So you need an extra feat in there.

Finally, remember to take Spell Penetration. At the level that this combo is finally getting off, Magic Resistance -- not just saves -- is the big issue.

DDM: Quicken, of course! (2 feats, BTW)

Irresistable Chained Reach Slay Living. Don't even bother with dealing hit point damage, just flip their off switch.

Hmmm ... this is a Touch Spell. It can be turned into a Reach Spell, right?
If turned into a Reach Spell, it cannot be Chained (because Rays cannot be Chained.)
If not turned into a Reach Spell, can it be Chained?

Seriously here, is there a feat that allows you to smash through Spell Resistance?
Now that we've broken through the other defenses, we must find out how to crush the last defense the enemy could have.

I know of Spell Penetration and Greater Spell Penetration. Any others?

Also, doesn't your level affect your ability to overcome Spell Resistance, so that a feat like Practiced Spellcaster would affect your capacity to beat the enemy's SR?

EDIT: What feats do we have out there, that allow a spell to smash through Damage Reduction?

Damage Reduction only applies to weapons/natural attacks, so... no feat required.

For referene, Irresistable Spell seems to be from the Kingdoms of Kalamar Player's Guide, and Southern Caster is from Shining South.

Ah, thank you. Thanks much.
Now, we need the feats that will smash through Spell Resistance. The feats that will put the enemy in the Dead Book for sure.
Anyone?

There is a swift spell that gives you +10 to bypass the SR of one opponent.
Also, a CHR caster with a level of marshal can get a +10ish (for the whole party!) to bypass SR at higher character levels (bonus=CHR bonus). That is an always-on thing.....

If I remember correctly, "Spell Thesis" from PBH II adds another +2 bonus to your caster level for a specific spell (and also reduces the cost of metamagic feats by 1 spell level, but that isn't so important in this case).
(We called the feat "Overpowered Fireball" and demanded that it can only be taken with Fireball )
