Thanks for pointing me to Deviant-art, they at least have a search function  Q92 Which spells are similar to magic missile and Scorching ray in that they produce multiple missiles in one turn? Preferably auto-hitting, or ranged touch. Melf's Unicorn Arrow (PHB2), There is a area of effect magic missile variant whose name I cannot recall. Chain Missile (Spell Compendium). Ice Darts (Sp Comp or Frostburn, I forget) There's also a Druid one that fires multiple thorns in a volley like Scorching Ray. It originally appeared in Magic of Faerun, but I think was reprinted in Spell Compendium. It might not have been a touch attack, though. |

18-20 x3.
And thanks to Complete Arcane, you can take Improved Critical (Ranged Spells) to double that. 4d6 at 15-20/x3 is pretty darn good for a level 2 spell. |

Q95 I just wanted to make sure that I read this correctly, just to make sure that I'm not going to get books chucked at me in vain. Playing an SCM could one cast the corrupt spell "Apocalypse from the Sky" Without taking the prerequisite ability damage? Corruption Cost: 3d6 points of Constitution damage and 4d6 points of Wisdom drain. Just preparing this spell deals 1d3 points of Wisdom damage, with another 1d3 points of Wisdom damage for each day it remains among the caster’s prepared spells.

Q 96 I was going through some old character sheets of mine from back in the day, and came across an old 3.0 character I'd made, and the ring he had was a Ring of Escape. Anyone know where I could get info on what that ring did, or what book it was from?

Wouldn't it be easier to get immunity to damage/drain? Plenty of ways out there. |

A97 Master Spellthief, Ultimate Magus, Sublime Chord. This type of build gets crazy caster level due to the way Master Spellthief stacks caster levels.

A98: Bag of Holding, Portable Hole, if the zombie is small enough, Handy Haversack.
Really, there are a tone of options. You don't have to worry about the zombies breathing, so any extradimensional space that can hold that amount of mass is good to go.

Why would you even do this? It hurts my eyes and looks like you ate your keyboard before suffering an attack of explosive diarrhea. If using Genesis to hide your phylactry, set it at -300 degrees farenheit. See how do-gooders fare with a liquid atmosphere. |

Q99: I thought there was a 3rd tier sphere of invulnerability that included 5,6,7th (8th?) level spells. I can't seem to locate it. Does anyone know what I was thinking of?

An interesting read, nice to see a civil discussion The point of Spell Resistance is to make it harder to get buffed. And healed. Don't forget that. Huge amounts of people are fuckwits. That doesn't mean that fuckwit is a valid lifestyle. Old Geezer's Law of Hobby Taste: The more objectively inconsequential a hobby is, the more disagreements within the community will be expressed in outrageously insulting, overblown, and ludicrously emotionally laden terms. More Funny than HumbleYour a shifter... you have all you ever need. It blows MoMF out of the water But if your greedy for more [ Wish] for something that only effects you, like another class level or two that doesn't count against your ECL. Yes, I'm the 3.0 "Masters of the Wild" shifter, the awesome kind. My favorite form to take is Force Dragon. Yes, I am immortal ... My character is hands down the coolest guy in the campaign and there is nothing I could possibly want. PBMC gets a cookie for DotA r |

You thinking of Otiluke's Resilient Sphere from Complete Mage? Basically like an AMF tuned to 1 specific school of magic per casting.

Otiluke's Resiliant Sphere is from the PHB and does the sphere of force around the target. Otiluke's Suppressing field is what I think you mean, and forces a caster level check for any spell of the selected school, subschool, or descriptor to work. in the area. |
