It would be x4, so 48,000 gold and a swift action to Wraithstrike every round. That's actually a bit expensive, keeping in mind every gish can do it for free, or at least less gold as a matter of course and beatsticks need Nice Things. Well unless you're Aelryinth, then auto negate gimps for 48k is something to cry about. Laugh
Ouch, that is expensive. Or 9600 per charge. Hmm. I don't see how every gish could do it for free though, because not every gish made is a wiz/sor.

Depends on how one defines gish. 
True, but most gishes I've seen on here clerics, druids, or ToB classes.

A couple of quetions...

Q214
I can buy off the 2 ECL for a Mercury dragon wyrmling at lvl 6 and lvl 9. If I pick up more dragon HD to advance to the next category (young category increases the ECL from 2 to 3), at what level can I buy off this new ECL?


Q215
What are the ways to increase the Mercury dragon's size to "Large" category so that it can serve as a mount for a medium sized humanoid?
So far I've come up with using Fleshwarper's Aberrant familiar's "Size increase attribute" plus familiar mount. Is there something simpler like a low LA template to can increase the size category (something like the drider template)?


Q216
Sorcerer levels stack with the spell casting ability of Dragons. As Sublime Chord spellcasting work like sorcerers', do dragon spellcasting stack with Sublime Chord? Trying to gain a faster spell casting progression.


Thx!

Shaikujin, your questions have "A###" in front of them instead of "Q###".

Q 219: I'm trying to understand Synchronicity (ab)use.  Is the following true for my L2 Psion?

Linked Power Metapower Synchronicity + whatever.  Synchronicity is the power manifest this turn: name the power to be manifest under normal situations as the readied action, to go off in the event that your turn ends (which is Synchronicity's effect).  Specify that next round, you want the linked power to be manifest.  This nets a -1 PP cost in the power to be manifest the following round, since Sync only costs one PP, which lets you manifest the power on the 2nd round augmenting it 1 pp further.

Example: 2nd level Psion with Synchronicity, Force Screen, Vigor, Linked Power, and Metapower: Synchronicity / Linked Power.  Round 1, Sync is used to manifest Force Screen, Round 2 Vigor with 15 HP is manifested.  The whole thing costs 1 Power Point and my focus.

Too bad there's only four deities that have access to that domain.

This seems quite reasonable for an all-day item.  Brilliant Energy is quite comparable as a +4 weapon bonus (minimum cost = 50000 gp).  Its easier to negate a Wraithstrike that's on someone vs. a Brilliant Energy weapon, though, and that could be about 2000 gp.  Seems quite right.

Q 220
Quote from: SRD
Regeneration
A creature with regeneration treats all damage as nonlethal, except for specific types of damage, given in the creature’s description, that affect it normally (such as a troll’s vulnerability to acid and fire). A creature with regeneration can remove 1 nonlethal hit per round per 5 points of regeneration (minimum 1 hit).
Quote from: SRD
An undead creature possesses the following traits (unless otherwise noted in a creature’s entry).
Not subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, ability drain, or energy drain.

So are undead (or some other creature immune to nonlethal damage) with regeneration immune to all damage that doesn't bypass that regeneration?

Q221
I'm a Psion5 with a psicrystal.  Let's assume my psicrystal took Hidden Talent: astral construct.  Can it then take Practiced Manifester and have ML5?

How else can I get my psicrystal's ML to 5?

Hood - My first answer to all your build questions; past, present, and future.

Speaking of which:
Don't even need TO for this.  Any decent Hood build, especially one with Celerity, one-rounds [Azathoth, the most powerful greater deity from d20 Cthulu].
Does it bug anyone else that we've reached the point where characters who can obliterate a greater deity in one round are considered "decent?"

Excellent, thanks.  New question.

Q 222
A creature with Regeneration converts all lethal damage to nonlethal damage, and a character with a high level in the Bone Knight prestige class (from Five Nations) is immune to nonlethal damage.  Would such a character be immune to all damage that didn't bypass her regeneration?
