Q217: Would the abjurant armor power of the abjurant champion apply to the ''Magic circle vs (ener alignment)'' line of spell'S deflection bonus to AC?

A deflection bonus to AC is not an armor bonus to AC nor is it a shield bonus to AC. |

Q218: My DM said it wasn't necessary using Material Components of Spells in her game...
So... I was wondering which are the most Costly and Strong spells i can get to use freely now, i'm a Dread Necromancer -> Rainbow Servant, Child of Eberron Kobold...
So, all Druid and Cleric Spells at my reach, maybe a level in Prestige Bard later... Suggestions?

I would recommend not abusing her generosity to start with. If you insist on doing so however true seeing is always nice, as is force cage and magi tattoo (SpC) |

Q219:
Is there an armor material that Monks can wear without violating their not wearing armor clause, which stops you using Flurry of Blows??
I want a Monk to wear armor but it nerfs his other abilities so have to spend 2x the cost in items to get a similar AC.

Nope... just as i said, no Material Component... Tsunamis, Symbol traps and such for free, i don't intend to abuse, but it's nice to know my new options... |

One favorite of TML's in Favorable Sacrifice, from SpC. It allows you to choose how expensive the material component is going to be and then gives bonuses based on that.  |

Nope. Bracers of Armor are about as close as you can get. |

I am constantly amazed by how many DM's ban Tomb of Battle. The book doesn't even exist! Quotes: By yes, she means no.
That explains so much about my life. hiicantcomeupwithacharacterthatisntaghostwhyisthatamijustretardedorsomething
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. |

If you have a cleric friend, he can cast magic vestment on your clothing. If you have a wizard friend, he can cast greater mage armor on you.
If it's only the AC bonus, flurry, and unarmed damage you're after, consider monk 1 / ardent X with the tashalatora feat.

Three questions!
Q210: Can anyone provide me with a list of spells that scale with CL? (Cap doesn't matter.)
Q211: What ways are there to cast spells as an immediate action besides Anima Mage? (Looking into casting a spell with a duration longer than a Full-round Action in less time. Standard/Move/Swift Actions work just as well.)
Q212: What ways are there to gain the ability to convert spells into SLAs/Su abilities?
A210: http://www.imarvintpa.com/DnDLive/FindSpell.phpA211: Immediate action? not that I can think of. For casting more quickly? Shadowcraft mage can do it for evocation/most conjuration. Dweomerkeeper can do it as a supernatural standard action. A212: Archmage, Dweomerkeeper I'm afraid the Marvin index wasn't very helpful... |

Q220
Is there a feat that lets you use a weapon as though it were an unarmed strike for essentially all purposes as a Monk? I'm building a character for someone who, thematically, wants to be a fencer, and I'm wondering if I can get a rapier to be used with Flurry (I know Unconventional Flurry or something like that exists) and Stunning Fist. Low enough level that miscellaneous items aren't gonna be much use, unless there's a really really cheap one out there (and it'll have to be flat cost, not a +1 to a weapon or something).

So you end up stuck in an endless loop, unable to act, forever.

I remember reading about a feat that did exactly that in a dragon mag once. Q 221: What means would I have to employ to have my cohort 1st lvl Petal (MM3) Rogue become my familure? |

That deals unarmed damage only, which isn't what I want (a rapier does 1d6 so it doesn't matter, as it's a Monk dip).
alternatively, renegade mastermaker? Think there's also a weapon if legacy.
Level 5 character, so no PrC or WoL.
I'll see if a quick search of Dragon stuff helps.Homebrewed it based on precedents in the Eberron Campaign Setting for spears and longswords. Is there a feat that allows a monk to wear light armor without losing class features? |

Q221: Where can I find a thread with all of the good armor/shield/weapons and their enhancements, modifiers, and crystals?
So how do characters, or more specifically, a miracle-casting cleric, get around the bite of the wear bear not allowing you to attack more than once?

Arguably you cannot, since it's not a typical member of its species...
