How useful would this be?
« on: June 27, 2010, 02:20:43 AM »
This would be for a sneaky wizard, I'm wondering how this would work.
Level 20 Wizard
20 Contingencies on him
1st contingency- When I say I'm going in, trigger. Time Stop.
2nd: When the Time Stop is in it's last round, tirigger. Time Stop
3rd: When the second Time Stop contingency is about to end, trigger. Time Stop
And so on.
I've calculated that the average duration is 51 rounds of Time Stop.

Of course, a <Race> Wizard 20 and a <Race> Psion 10/Metamind 10 would be more elegant, ass you can cast one time stop, activate Font fo Inspiration, and Manifest Temporal Regression each round as a Swift Action.

That would mean you would live in your own little Time Stopped world.
AMFs would be closed to you, though.

Wait, can a Time Stopped Wizard pick up/manipulate objects?

Cleric: "I can kill a guy in half a turn."
Wizard: "I can kill a guy before my turn."
Bard: "I can get three idiots to kill guys for me."

On a strange note, would anyone be put out if we had a post about people or events we can spare a thought for, or if its within their creed, a prayer for? Just a random thought, but ... hells I wouldn't have known about either Archangels daughter or Saeomons niece if I didn't happen to be on these threads.
Sounds fine to me.
probably over on "Off-topic".
might want to put a little disclaimer in the first post.

This is the Min/Max board. We should be able to figure out a way to optimize the POWER OF PRAYER(TM) that doesn't involve "Pazuzu, Pazuzu, Pazuzu".

My final project for my film independent study course. It could do with a watching and critiquing

Read the spell description and you'll find the answer.

Also, how are you getting 20 contingencies?

I think craft contingency spell, I think I am remembering it wrong,but it is spell per HD, not spell level per HD.

Ahhh, thanks. And the_shadowmind is right, it is spell per HD.
