So much, that the folks at the 3.5 forums were able to add up five and a half whole threads (plus the bonus one) of things that the developers simply didn't think through. Really, call me a cynic if you like, but the designers have a history of not knowing squat about their own fricking game.

Which is a lot more useful for many of us than RAW since RAW is so easily twisted for power-gaming.Īnd yeah, the Forcecage restriction is nice, even though it allows a save.Sorry man, I've missed your post before. The difference with Sage Advice is that it comes from those who worked on development who presumably have a better grasp of RAI. Which is all the credibility, as each individual DM is master of their table. Besides what you are describing sounds more like a seal twisting paladin.

But this is fantasy, and I want some dynamic spellcasting.The bards in EQ were not playing songs on a normal instrument, they were using a miniature portable turntable in that case and DJing. It would require intense practice, extreme mental fortitude, and would likely be impossible in real life. Remember you only need one hand for somatic components, so I imagine he used one hand for each spell and mixed the words together. So it sounds like a jumbled mess, but the wizard just did both at the same time. The wizard is casting one spell, making the big gestures and saying the words just so. Essentially, you stopped playing one song, started the next, then stopped and started the next, then stopped and went back to the first song, maintaining the buffs of all three (or four or sometimes five). Well, back when I played EQ, bards could 'twist' several songs together. But this is fantasy, and I want some dynamic spellcasting.

I have no probably allowing it because it seems cool, just not sure how to justify it RAW.Well, back when I played EQ, bards could 'twist' several songs together. The all powerful big bad is concentrating to cast spell or hatever, the heroes try to interrupt him, and he just shoves them off with a though and go back to concentrating on whatever he was doing before. Justifying the fluff (which is what I think you meant) is as simple as Mechanically, you have your reaction that can be used at any time you want. I have no probably allowing it because it seems cool, just not sure how to justify it RAW.One doesn't have to justify it mechanically. So your wizard is halfway through casting Teleport, the next wizard casts Counterspell to interrupt, and your wizard does what exactly? Pauses Teleport and then resumes? Or does Teleport finish casting, then the first Counterspell, followed by the second? Kind of a loose definition of 'process' but I suppose one could argue that the spell 'process' is not complete until the S/V/M components are done and then the spell itself actually has taken effect. How do you describe that mechanically? Since you are interrupting a spell mid casting, that means you would be casting two spells at the same time.
