A Drow Monk's spell resistance?

Post by Bawookles »

Hey, all!

Been thinking about what race to make a monk, since, you know, monk's are the coolest classes ever, and am I right in thinking that a drow monk would be a spell resistant powerhouse?

At 13th level, a monk gets level plus 10 spell resistance and add that to a Drow's 11 plus level s.r. and you can have, for example, a 20th level Drow Monk with 30 + 31= 61% spell resistance!!!! That's amazing!!!

Does anyone know if this in fact correct? I heard J.E. Sawyer said s.r. would be "stacked", does this mean added together or merely the highest one is the score?

Anyone know? Thanks!

Umm, thank you for showing your skills at cut and paste. The reply you received to this exact post on the official IWD II
forum might interest you.
If I asked, would you answer? Its your problem. Its a deep, deep problem. I have no way to ask about that... I have no elegant way of stepping into your heart without tracking in filth. So I will wait. Someday, when you want to tell me, tell me then. -Bleach

Sorry Ares2382!!

I know what "stacked" means but you know, in D&D, sometimes terminology has a life of its own, like THACO and BAB and stuff. For all I knew, "stacked" in D&D could mean "you put the seperate scores together and delete the lowest score" or something.

I'm still under the belief that "stacked" applies only to many of the female character's portraits!!! ;)
