Persistent consumptive field is far more efficient as a means of powering bag of chickens tricks because it takes so much less time to get up to full power each day.

You have to cast it multiple times, though, as each has a max of +50% CL.

Oh, yeah, Comp Field. That one works on weak people, not just dying or knocked out ones.

In any case, gaining +50% more levels isn't bad; going from lvl 7 to 10; and then again from 10 to 13 (I'm safely assuming it's based on base CL (plus maybe gear); but the power spike is handy enough as it is.

There's no way I can justify myself being Neutral Good at that point.

Oh, I could just call it a 'sacrifice' (or better still, a burnt offering) and then donate the killed chickens to the people who are hungry in town?

Nothing says fillin' like god-blessed chicken is what I always says.

Damn, at 2 CP per chicken; heh, heeh, heheheh.

I'm gonna be the most well armed and armoured chicken "keeper" in all of Eberron. Scratch that, I'm going to be a poultry distributor; I'll deliver straight to those in need.


Say, has anyone here ever heard of a "detect hunger" spell in any book?

If not, I'm gonna make one for the Archivist Spell list as a 1st lvl spell.

I'll kill some chickens, feeds some poor hungry peoples and get spell caster levels. Which will really only apply to buffs which have really long base Durations (like, hours), but oh well.

I can't do the divine metamagic persistant spell trick, but, I 'might' be able to. Once we jimmy around the way our group will allow the 'new' Feats to be aquired and how we will leave a place for the 'old' feats to still do something.


Say, aside from GMW and Magic Vestments; are there any decent buff spells that have a base Duration of hours?

Druids have a fuckton of 10 minute/level spells, so if your domain grants any of them you can go crazy.

Delay Poison is awesome if you can make it last a long time. If you can get the duration over 24 hours, you can be immune to poison forever.

Resist Energy is 10 minutes/level, and if you get to CL 11 you can enjoy your new 30 resistance.

Air Walk is 10 minutes/level, as is Freedom of Movement.

10 minutes/level can be almost as good as hours, especially if you have something like a Rod of Extend.

Actually.... I already made myself a cloak of Resitance and Poison Delayal.

So, I'm going to be using poisoned crossbow bolts alongside the ninja. Using lesser creation goodness to create pounds and pounds of a contact poison that we will smear on enemies gear and.. maybe even their eating utensils. :mischief:

Of course, we'll use terinav Root for Dex damage, since we're good.... yeah.

The vials we have of Black Lotus Extract is for.. recreational use.

Uhm...

It's a bad, bad day if you've got tons of poisons on delay-away and you run into an Antimagic Field, however.

That's why I use Creation spells to create the poisons?

So, that it's a non-issue?

Also, I prefer to use non Con-damaging poisons (dex is really hot; a 7th lvl ninja could kill any dragon with a crossbow of realoading and lots and lots of Terinav Root dosed bolts).

Plus, .... wait, does Detect Magic see an AMF as a zone of no magic?

I think it might since AMF does cut the LOS of magical effects, so it would be a zone through with o maic moves.

Definately internet winning material.

I mean, how can a non-magical zone radiate blocking magic?...


Maybe it can; what if the AMF isn't a non-magic zone, but rather a 'shell' that forces all magical energy to go around it?

That's actually a good analogy.

We can 'see' the abjuration 'matter'; but we can't see the non-magic 'anti-matter' holding it in place; but we can infer that it's there since it's holding the 'matter' in a fixed pattern.

Sure, whatever works.

At least it's not Evocation or Illusion.
