Q113: Is there a way to become immune to A) Antimagic Field and B) Disjunction? Epic level abilities are go. I remember there being a ruling about Antimagic Field not breaking Line of Sight, or Line of Effect (one or the other, but I can't recall which).
Metal hats, also epic spells arn't affected by antimagic nor are artifacts so one or the other will help if you have epic levels to play with. What about the AMF breaking LoS or LoE (can't remember which)? I could wander around in a Extraordinary Spell Aim'd AMF. It blocks niether. And alphaalex said no when I asked him about Extraordinary Spell Aim (remember, Complete Adventurer isn't on the source list)  I used that exact tactic last time before the game quickly ground to a halt. |

Won't work. as the AMF is not in your square, and spells cast at you wont be subject to the AMF either. |

It doesn't say "Select a square", it says "choose a creature", and "is unaffected by this spell". Most conservative interpretation would mean it wouldn't allow anything you cast to pass through the amf. Any other interpretation would allow you to cast out of the amf, since it does not effect you. |

A gygaxian dungeon is like the world's most messed up game show.
Behind door number one: INSTANT DEATH!
Behind door number 2: A magic crown!
Behind door number 3: 4d6 giant bees, and THREE HUNDRED POUNDS OF HONEY! They don't/haven't, was the point. 3.5 is as dead as people not liking nice tits.
Sometimes, their tits (3.5) get enhancements (houserules), but that doesn't mean people don't like nice tits.
Though sometimes, the surgeon (DM) botches them pretty bad...
Best metaphor I have seen in a long time. I give you much fu. Three Errata for the Mage-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Barbarian-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Monks doomed to die,
One for the Wizard on his dark throne
In the Land of Charop where the Shadows lie. |

Anti-magic Field does NOT block LoE. However, spells cannot be cast in there and it does suppress any spell effect other than instantaneous conjurations.
You could shoot a Fireball through an AMF and have it act normally on the far side without problems. Likewise, anyone running around with an ESA AMF is vulnerable to targetted spells.
But, as I mentioned, this is a moot point because the DM isn't allowing Extraordinary Spell Aim.

Huh? That's not the game I was referring to.  And last I checked I wasn't accepted into his game anyways. Ah well, I could always go with Permanent Emanation, since I can turn it on and off as a free action, and spells with a duration aren't dispelled inside an AMF, just suppressed. Failing that, I could always take levels in Cleric of Mystra. |

That could work, but if you have it up, your other buffs are all off. ESA +AMF has the advantage of letting your spells all work perfectly and anyone within 10ft of you is without magic.

Q 111. How does Psychic Reformation work in a Familiar?
In my case, i'm 18th level, so the familiar is considered having 18 Hit Dices, so would i remake my Imp from level 1 to 3 or from level 1 to 18?
Would his BAB, Skills and such improve if 18 is the case?
Nobody? |

Nobody? Short version: No. Longer version: Familiars do not gain actual hit dice. They gain abilities based on their master. The only thing you could psyref would be the base abilities that a normal, non-familiar version of the creature would have. For an imp, it would be those basic three HD they have, and any feats they come with in the monster manual, same for skill ranks. |

Yes. Mind Blank is the big one. Sequester and Nondetection as well. Nondetection is an opposed caster level check, but you can still recieve beneficial mind-affecting effects (which Mind Blank blocks) and can still act (which Sequester blocks). |

Here's a major bump. Q75: If a Cleric has DMM (Heighten), can he prepare a spell Heightened and then heighten it further by spending turn attempts?
Example: 5th level Cleric prepares Sound Burst heightened to a 3rd level slot. When casting, he decides to burn 3 turn attempts to raise the effective level by 2 to a total of 5.

 If you stop ignoring 289 pages telling what the intent is to stretch "more power" in your own god complexion of your interpretation trumps all to cover ability adjustments from aging then I will ignore a quarter page of rules that exist within a sidebar.
I think in this case the grammar is less important than whether the Str and Dex bonus provided to your created undead scales.

A 75 I remember hearing that multiple instances of the same metamagic doesn't stack in 3.5.
Not sure where it says this, but if I am wrong then Arcane thesis+ incantatrix + empower = infinite damage.
