Level 10 Polymorphing Artificer
« on: August 24, 2009, 06:12:20 PM »
All this is set in stone so if you don't approve I'm sorry.

After last campaign we had a surprise (btw ty for the amazing gish we made on this very forum). Everyone went up 6 levels. Well you could try to roll through 8 challenges to get stupid stat bumps at a 2 bonus = 1ecl. Every one else thought HEY 25 str 25 dex 25 Int for 2 levels, thats awesome, I on the other hand said screw that I'll polymorph into something better. Side bonus of this was we could change our class levels if we wanted. So I went from sorc 4 to Artificer 10.
Race: Neraph
Stats 14,12,14,14,8,18 now.
Feats
Extend
Persist
Magical Artisan (the 75% faerun feat :) ) craft wonderous, craft magic arms and armor, etch minor schema.
I have 1 feat left not sure what to waste it on.

What spells should I persist from schemas? Right now I got Divine power/might(whatever one gives you fighterbab), Draconic Polymorph(dwarf ancestor), Haste Swift, bite of the were tiger. and Greater Mighty Wallop.
Also I made a +6 Cha Cloak ,+6 Headband, +6 amulet of health, and a skin of the defender. Went with a large surestriking metalline Warmace also. If any one can think of some items or spells left to persist that would be awesome.

I'm thinking of permancy hord gullet on myself, eating my dedicated wright + small smithy, and being a walking blacksmith.

btw the group I play with are better friends with dm then I am. As such favorites get played, so I wouldn't mind a cheese doomsday device in my back pocket. My shot at this item was a rod of many wands loaded with ray of stupidy, enfeeble, and clumsiness. Or Ray of Scorching, frost, and lighting, and using artificer to max ,via metamagic infusion, each one.

Extraordinary Artisan and Legendary Artisan work well.  If you can, go Magical Artisan: Extraordinary Artisan- it's RAW legal- to get a 25% flat reduction on a 25% gold cost reduction, or 0.5625 of normal craft price.  Apply Magical Artisan to Legendary Artisan, Craft Wondrous, and maybe even Exceptional Artisan and you're crankin' out magic items like a factory!

Also, why Etch Schema?  Craft Wondrous does almost all you need assuming you can make custom items.

See here.

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?"

Where are the rules for that?

First time making items pretty much so ><.

I just want to make something to cast draconic polymorph for me.

In dmg closest thing I see is a table,
So for a single use activated item would be
spell level(5) X caster level(10) X 2000. divide by uses per day (5 divided by charges) so 2.5 if I do 2
so 5k for a magic coin of draconic polymorph?

so 1/2 for making then 75% for discount this sound right?

That's a pretty big assumption.
[spoiler]
A couple of water benders, a dike, a flaming arrow, and a few barrels of blasting jelly?

Sounds like the makings of a gay porn film.
...thanks

Schema are fairly cheap and go up to 6th lvl spells. I'm seeing Greater Any spell as my I'm really really prepared for stuff schema.

There's the question of how it works when you don't have Domain Slots, though...

Don't forget that spell also exists outside being a domain spell, thanks to "Fuck Antimagic" - I mean Initiate of Mystra :P
