I once tried mixing espresso in the death tea. didn't take so well.  granted, it had enough caffeine to kill a horse, but the taste was awful.  luckily, I only ruined one glass of the stuff that way, which I was able to drink after diluting with dairy.

have you been maxing your fort saves?
born with a high con mod, and somehow a racial HD in barbarian. no clue how that happened. regardless, my fort save is not a problem.

Does Ring of Spell-Battle stop MDJ if you use the re-direct function?

well, I did multiclass out.  got 1 rank in those skills, too. But, I must say, fast movement comes in really damn handy.

pretty sure ring of spell-battle only affects targeted spells. MDJ has the audacity to be a 20 ft radius burst.

Even if it does, I don't recall TBoS having one.  And even if he does, my final write-up already has that included just in case (yay, arcane tennis!).  Don't worry, all angles are being covered, and really, the defenses of the TBoS have one flaw in that they must be renewed.  The final version of my Dark Spellthief Master Magus won't trouble himself with such sundries, instead relying upon the infallible nature of a mythal.  Which mind you even a GOD can't bring down, only suppress 1d4 rounds, which will also be planned for (and foreseen).

It's true.  I never imagined it could surpass the almighty Incantatrix for me, but given the capabilities it has when augmented with one of Incantatrix or UM, it is indisputably the top dog, possibly only equaled by the raw power of Tainted Sorcerer.

which you then combined with it.  :lmao

also, who needs incantatrix when your hour/lvl buffs last 5.8 days, your 10min/lvl's last 23.5 hours, and your round/level spells last a quarter of an hour?

I have no idea what my class skills are, all I know is that I probably have high HD and perhaps a bit of DR.

You see, a 25 kg steel beam once fell on my back. From 4 stories up. Besides feeling quite a bit of pain on my back for a few days, I got no damage at all. I also never broke a single bone, except for my right pinky.

A gygaxian dungeon is like the world's most messed up game show.

Behind door number 2: A magic crown!
Behind door number 3: 4d6 giant bees, and THREE HUNDRED POUNDS OF HONEY!
They don't/haven't, was the point. 3.5 is as dead as people not liking nice tits.

Sometimes, their tits (3.5) get enhancements (houserules), but that doesn't mean people don't like nice tits.

Though sometimes, the surgeon (DM) botches them pretty bad...

Good Reflex saves plus Evasion?

It fell squarely on my back. Where's the evasion?

Bah, that's just fluff. You rolled with it and took no damage. :P
