Ahhhh, but why wear a necklace to protect against Poison? When you can wear an amulet to boost your Magic Resistance? Or even better, wear the Amulet of Power to boost Magic Resistance and gain Level Drain Immunity. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

actually, a Cavalier can use ranged weapons. i have mine using Azuredge to make him a super-efficient paladin http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif. just give him specialization in Axes, and he can use throwing axes extremely well!

It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.

What are you saying? Are you trying to tell me you have feelings now? Ha, ha, ha... Stop acting as if you're sad. And there's no need to act as if you're angry either. Because, Cloud, you are... a puppet.

no, just floyd http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

although pink floyd does rock.

Not quite the same as the regular dispell magic.
1. Casting speed = 1
2. Dispels at X2 level (so it almost always works)
3. Range effect = 10ft
4. You have LOTS of dispel casts at your disposal

And of course, I want my mage to be busy casting offensive spells rather than dispeling them...

Since you mentioned the Amulet of Power, I have a question: it states that it's not usable by thieves and fighters. And since paladins and rangers are considered as fighters for "item-using" purposes, paladins shouldn't be able to wear it.
If they can use the amulet, that's why undead hunters are so underrated, I guess. But I played as one and he really rocked. Having a +8 against undead (natural ability and Carsomyr) was very cool!

Paladins != Fighters

The Amulet of Power is usable by Paladins.

Well, personally I think Amulet of Power should be restricted to mages and clerics, paticularly because the amulet was made for them.. Clerics and Mages are the only classes who can make good use of the -1 Casting Time and Vocalize, since rangers are paladins are NOT good spellcasters (i don't care what you think, they AREN'T).. The only cross-class ability the amulet gives out that is ok for other classes to use is the immunity to level drain, which is (pretty much) what this topic's about...

Synthos, looks at
Carsomyr +5...: Man I love this sword!

Yeah, they may not be the best spell-casters in the world, but they are still spell-casters. Heh, do not forget that they also benefit from the +5% Magic Resistance, and Vocalise is applicable to them. I want my Cavalier to be able to use her spells.

the amulet is also useable by monks, who cast no spells whatsoever. I think its a bug; its too powerful to give a monk or paladin permenant immunity to level drain, IMO.

First: Why on Earth would any respectable gamer want to play a highlevel campaign with a paladin unable to cast clerical spells?

Second: A good way to avoid all those restarts against the beholders is to memorize the wiz spell Protection from Paralyzation. This stops you from being turned to stone. And if worse comes to worse, just use one of those handy Stone to Flesh scrolls... they're cheap.

Third: Steal yourself about 10 Greater Restoration scrolls. No need to restart tons of times due to level drain. Just be smart about it and make certain your chars have their best AC up (including spells like Prot/Evil,Harmony). Plus it it never hurts to memorize yee ol Negative Plane Protection spell if you "know" that your guy is going to get hit.
