High Elf
Custom stealth/mage class
sign: the mage
skills: All six schools of magic plus sneak.

It's worked well so far (level 27, beat main quest, mage's guild and dark brotherhood quests). If I had to do it again, I'd probably take blade instead of sneak, as sneak is unnecessary once you get ...

So my character is a vampire, and due to the buggy nature of vampirism (example: entering the sunlight damage stage only hours after feeding), I'm trying to change back. I'm at the part where you need to get the ashes of a powerful vampire, argonian blood, 5 nightshade, 6 garlic and 2 of that stalk ...

If you want a character that can fight and cast spells, play a cleric or a druid, or maybe even a bard. The problem with multiclassed spellcasters is that they'll never be able to overcome their target's spell resistance, and that spellcasters need alot of levels before they get to the good, high ...

Does anyone know if a character has both a haste affect and automatic quicken spell 1-9 if the effects stack and give them three spells a turn?

[QUOTE=BadAzzCleric]I think my problem is that I'm too spread thin in my multiclassing obsession. I'm a level 10 Sorc/10 RDD/4 Pale Master. Maybe if I was a level 20 Sorc or 20 RDD, or higher, I would've had better luck...

Question: Does it matter "how evil or neutral" you are when you switch to ...

I just killed the dragon while soloing, no problems to speak of. I'm currently playing a sorceror, I think I killed the dragon at level 24. You need immunity to mind affecting and an item that gives you haste to even stand a chance, and some damage reduction wouldn't hurt. Beyond that, it's a ...

Heh, for a cleric or druid, greater ruin's awesome But considering that level eight sorceror spells (emp IGMS) deal more damage...meh.

^But shapeshange is pretty worthless, and black blade deals ALOT less damage than you could do casting spells. Timestop-maximized IGMS-maximized IGMS will do alot more.

[QUOTE=Noober]You take epic spells as feats, and the prerequisites are using base spellcraft and Xandax mentioned. There also migh be a bug that does not allow classes that don't have lvl 9 spells to take epic spells (though it may be fixed in the next patch).[/QUOTE]

In the in game description of ...

^Why would you only use metamagic a few times? If you have a well built character, most of your higher level offensive spells should be metamagic versions of lower level spells, so you'll pretty much be using metamagic exclusively at higher levels. Empowered and maximized IGMS and firebrand have ...

^Why would you take dodge and mobility over metamagic? You're going to have trouble getting a high AC even if you do waste ability points in dexterity and take these feats, why not just spend them on something better and use damage reduction spells and gear?

Plus you need metamagic to cast damaging ...

There's an item called the amulet of absolute good, or something, that gives +3 CHA and +3 WIS. There's also a cloak that gives +7 CHA. Both are found in Hordes of the Underdark.

As for metamagic...it's a must for a sorceror. Extend is pretty much worthless, though, since the only good short ...

Does anyone know the level of use magic device necessary to cast 9th level sorceror/wizard scrolls when you have no levels in either?

I dunno, the RDD gives you;

-Tons of extra hitpoints
-Higher armor class (+4)
-+8 Str, +2 Con, +2 INT, +2 Char
-Darkvision
-Fire immunity

If you go RDD at level 20, the downside is that your spells are easier to save against than a pure sorceror, but I think your increased defense more than makes ...

I believe the difference is that slay has a range of touch and deals negative engery damage while finger of death has a range of short and deals physical damage.

Yes, the druid rocks :) It has shapeshift and animal companion, as well as an incredible spell selection. The downside is that druids ...

A sorceror multiclassing to an arcane archer is not a good idea, and the character will not remain playable for very long. The themes of the two classes are totally different, and will not compliment eachother.

If you want to multiclass, wait until at least level 17-18 and multiclass to a red ...

[QUOTE=Xandax]He is not immune to death magic, he just has high saves, and therefor rarely fails them.

I killed him by using the Black Blade of Disaster where he failed a fortitude on hit, which destroyed him (remember a roll of 1 equals fail, no matter how much bonus there is).

Strangely enough ...

Thanks for the help. I unfortunately have no spells that do acid damage, since both melf's acid arrow and mestil's acid sheath suck, and I don't have any henchmen. Plus the only summon spell I have is greater planar binding, since I spent my level 9 slots of time stop, wail of the banshee and ...

I'm currently playing as a level 20 sorceror/7 RDD. I've been soloing for the whole game, and breezed through most of it with no problems. However, I finally got to mephisto, and I can't even damage him. I get the weapon ineffective thing when I try to hit him, even though I have a +10 weapon, and ...
