triggers and sequencers

Post by lompo »

it is possible to have active "spell trigger", "spell sequencer" and "minor spell sequencer" all at the same time?
In some thread (or reports) I read you can't have more than one at the time, but does it mean no more of one of each kind or no more than one of the three?
I seem to remember that you could have all the three active, but I don't remember well.

You can only have one of each triggering style spell going, but yes, they can be maintained simultaneously. Think of them simply as copies of different spells, whose effects are independent.

No, but..

You can only have one (minor) sequencer/trigger line spell up at a time, but you can have a sequncer and a (chain) contingency.
I have given up all lesser evils as inadequate to my purpose.

Exactly my point. :)

@Lompo, consider having personalizing each triggering spell for a specific challenge. You might want one, for instance, that simply shoots off three magic missiles, or another that removes a host of protections. Remember, too, that multi-class cleric/mages such as Aerie really come into their own when they get triggering spells, since they can put clerical spells into 'em, as well. Shooting off several anti-Undead spells at once can be a powerful thing.

a triple implosion via chain contingency is a combination to make dragons and greater demons wet themselves.
