Tshern, how much time has elapsed?  After we rest for 8 hours and prepare spells, will it have been a day, meaning we'd need to rebuff accordingly?  I'm getting my spell slots prepared, when I realized that some of them might not currently be available, and other buffs wouldn't have expired yet.

Also, how do you rule Arcane Thesis?  Does it apply to individual metamagic effects, or is it a -1 spell level overall?

I still need to see if I need to swap any spells on my current list of spells. Any thoughts?

@Irthos: According to the errata Arcane Thesis reduces the cost of each metamagic feat you apply by 1, so it's pretty damn good :D

Wow.  Okay then, that makes me smile.

So, assuming that a day~ has passed and we will prepare spells as normal, here's what I'm looking at.

0th - Mage Hand (Domain), Acid Splash, Electric Jolt, Prestidigitation, Launch Bolt (Could I use a dagger instead of a bolt?  In which case, bogsnes, care to loan me a poisoned dagger, in case I have a chance to use it :devil)

1st - Expeditious Retreat (D), Shield, Snipers Shot, Nerveskitter x2, Benign Transposition, Lesser Orb of Sound, Ray of Clumsiness

2nd - Levitate (D), Swift Fly, Ray of Ice x2, Mirror Image, Resist Energy, Heart of Air

3rd - Haste (D), Greater Mage Armor, Arcane Sight, Icelance x2, Dispel Magic, Heart of Water

4th - Polymorph (D), Greater Invisibility, Assay Spell Resistance, Heart of Earth, Evard's Black Tentacles, Orb of Force

5th - Baleful Polymorph (D), Rary's Telepathic Bond, Reciprocal Gyre, Heart of Fire, Lesser Spell Matrix

6th - Disintegrate (D), Superior Resistance, Ray of Light


Now, I could swap out that Ray of Light for a Split Ray, Empowered Enervation... I'll have to think about it for a bit.  Bowen, I don't know how many uses you have left for the day, but I'd like to Persist Shield, Sniper's Shot, Arcane Sight, and I'd like to Extend Greater Invisibility once we arrive where we are.  Is that doable?

Also Bowen, that lets you know how I have my spells.  I picked up Evard's in case I have a good chance to use it, and theres plenty of stuff to feed my sneak attack spells, as well as stun/disable/debuff the enemies in various ways.  I think I'll have Icelance in my spell matrix, so my nuke will be Ray of Light + Icelance, which will pretty much disable 2 people for 1d4 rounds, or uber Enervate and Icelance, screwin over a couple someones.

Oooo... maybe Benign Transposition in the Matrix.... then I could hit someone with the Enervate or w/e and pop Talsor on top of them... tactical repositioning for the win.  I likey..

I can make a lot of poisoned daggers for you if you need it.
Or crossbow bolts, in that case...

I have like 10500 doses of poison leftover...

Well, I have absolutely no backup weapon, so a dagger or a bolt or whatever.  I can throw stuff better than I can stab, but it'd be nice to have around.  Especially since Phaedrus can give it a +5 enhancement :D

Does anyone else need some poison?

I'll shrink the leftover and throw it on someone when I want to :P

Maybe AC wants it for Talsor's glaive?

I guess I could use a few poisoned bolts just in case if you don't mind :)

By the way, should have my spell list done by tomorrow.
Sorry for the delay, got some stuff for uni that popped up unexpectedly.

Once I've got that finished, I'm good to go :)

Well, I have 10560 doses, and will use something like a hundred myself, and shrink some to throw if it gets hard, but the Vials does only take 8000 doses which means that it is 2460 doses left...

I could shrink those too, but I can't prepare one spell more than once per day...

Please tell me if you need poison so I can save something for you... :D

Sounds good...

I think I am ready already (hasn't any spell lists to make)...

And if you need some low level utility that none has in their spell-books, I have one level 3 or lower spell from anywhere in the Sor/Wiz list left...

Another question:

If I use a standard action to cast, say, Disintegrate, and it gets a Sneak Attack, and then I use Icelance as a swift action, could I also sneak attack with that, given that all the requirements are met?

I know you can't sneak attack twice with the same spell, such as Scorching Ray, but I'm not sure on that.

By the way, my Rary's Telepathic Bond can affect me + 4 others, so we'll need to decide who needs to be in the telepathic circle and who can live without it.  Tactically, I think bogsnes should be in the circle, as well as Bowen so that we can communicate.  Bowen has telepathy as well, so he can relay messages to whoever isn't in the spell itself.  And it'll last for two hours.

(It wasn't actually a persistable spell, we made an oops on that in the last mission :lol)

Does anyone have Rope Trick?
[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

I can perpare it, at CL 11 if that is good enough...

I have access to the whole Sor/Wiz list, of up to third level without a spellbook or anything :D ...

I do only have 4 spells per day, though, but I have one left...

Not like the last mission lasted that long :P

As for your question, I believe you should get sneak attack with all your attack rolls, just like you would with a full attack, since your entire full round benefits from the surprise/flanking element...

Not 100% sure, but definitely 99% sure...

A pity my weapon can't be enchanted (as it's a spell effect), but at least it's a touch attack so not getting the bonus to hit with it isn't a big deal.
It always seems like the barrels around here have something in them.
