[Mass Flame Weapon]

Mass Flame Weapon
Circle 4
Range: same as Mass Shell/Mass Protect
Otherwise identical in behavior to normal Flame Weapon.

Watching quest groups methodically cast Flame Weapon over and over as well as people in events is pain. How much needless time wasted could we eliminate by narrowing it down to a single spell cast? It's also cooler for a wizard to set an entire army's weapons alight at once instead of having to walk over and personally touch every single weapon.

I would suggest circle 6, or 5 if the flame weapon from Mass Flame Weapon was limited to 1d4 elemental damage.

Would love to see them replace "Maximize" entirely with "Mass" Metamagic, as the former is never used to my knowledge. Then handpick what spells are allowed to be used with any sort of drawbacks.

It's a bit difficult for these sort of things as cones are tied to the casting animation, not a VFX. It would require a new system to be setup to do, detecting the spell to be cast and replacing the animation before it happens, if a DM ever gets around to setting it up.

Dire Mace isnt THAT high, but its still the largest due to its rather atrocious stat line compared to others.

I think they already did no?

"Spears, Short Spears, and Halberds have been given increased attack range. "

They were increased, but are still significantly shorter than some weapons.

Hex Dispersion w/ GSF Necromancy: If the initial/original target dies within 1 Round / Level, the nearest hostile creature makes a Will save, or is hexed with every Hex the dying creature had. This on-death effect is also applied to the new creature for 1 round / level

The intention of this effect is to keep the original concept of Hex Dispersion, but to extend it's potential to you to try to keep a continuous application of hexes going even if it is only on one target at a time. This opens up the ability to also put out a second cast of Hex Dispersion for an even greater effect later on as well.

never did do that contract

Sadly the stars didn't align, but that probably saved me from what was going to be some ten to twenty thousand dinar  in 'what the fuck Alice' fees that it was going to end up being.

While I would say that her story ended a long time ago, she survived to witness the fall of Iakmes and the Total Victory of Ephia's Well. Alice then sadly met her fate just before rescue could arrive.

The character started out as a trashy reporter who wanted to make scandalous rumors and twist the narrative of events for profit. Alice definitely succeeded in that. As the days went on she became more invested in the politics and people of her new home, that she slowly faded away from her more rash earlier self. Maybe not someone you could truly call reliable since she would often not follow through on her deals and arrangements, but who is to say if that wasn't intentional?

Went on to announce several big events, tournaments, and lead some of the biggest campaigns for several legates throughout her career. In exchange she was heavily rewarded and got into the inner circle of several big name politicians. While there was always some suspicion and the PEOPLE disliked her methods, the results kept getting her additional work. The Latest, her own little bellows news program that the citizens of Ephia's Well enjoyed tuning in for, slowly became a well-funded propaganda machine, and lost that early innocence.

Some losses hit her harder than others over the course of her life, as what is a hedonist without a chef. The deaths of many of her former friends and colleagues ended up having the character isolated in her own world.

While she participated in several different groups and events that I feel may be best not to fully disclose, I'll see if I can truncate down a summary for this obituary in the future. For now though, I'll leave one comment - Alice never did get formally charged for brooking despite her involvement with djinn during the course of her life, so there's no need to feel like it's a death sentence! You liked her coat after all, didn't you?

Spell list for those who don't believe I didnt know Grease for reasons. She was an evoker after all!

The point of the build was to go for GSF Evocation with ice as her element and wholeheartedly stick to that theme, as it was how she managed to 'freeze her magic' into arrows. Plus if they cant run fast enough they'll have to listen to her monologue.

A lot of great work was put into this war, throughout all of it's events. By far some of the most cinematic scenes EFU has ever had and it was extremely immersive.

Thank you for all of the effort!

A chest that works like every other chest, but uses the display case model. Sold from the Glaziers. Please??

An 18 strength Ranger with only Two-Weapon Fighting and taking the -4 AB penalty to your offhand will still have more AB on each of it's attacks than a Monk at level 9/10. You even get Improved Two-Weapon Fighting without ever needing to meet the requirements for Dual-Wielding or Ambidexterity.

Regroup is more of a spell to get all of your summons back to you. Since there's very few characters that even use summon creature currently, you'll never see it cast outside of a situation where /c unstuck is more inconvenient than using a regroup scroll.

A new single target recall style spell is something that would feel fantastic to have in EFU though. Even with the trouble and grief it could cause, it's a fun spell concept that's been brought up a lot. Making it have limited range, setting it up as non-hostile spell that doesn't work on enemies, and explicitly states it cannot be used to facilitate PVP or used to purposefully put players into danger, should eliminate most potential for abuse. It would make sense that a spell like this would be themed around saving people and those who would seek to misuse it find themselves unable to cast it.

Beckoning ancient powers or drawing on some deep reservoir of internal power Invokers project into being forces far stronger than themselves.

Adding Horizakaul's Boom to Bard 1 spell list, lowering Whispering Wind from being a Bard 2 spell into a Bard 1 spell.

Would be nice if there were transitions made into the Stadium's pit for player scheduled events. Perhaps you can speak with the scribe to unlock them both for the reset at the cost of a hefty sum. Maybe reduced cost for Legates and Scribes in the dialogue, or requiring them entirely, giving the buyer the area shout ability.

Today, as I thought about how your very beauty is like a poem, a will that proves unchallenged, and a list of decorations still don't distract from your potential - I was truly filled with an inner sense that all is right on the Disc. Utter bliss. Then your recluta Quigsby raked across this pristine thought by acting like a beggar at the war camp and became rather insubordinate. While I naturally wouldn't dare to command you on how to conduct your company, if any particular Balesterie may have been instructed not to beat him, it would bring me great delight to such restrictions lifted.

A big part of what makes me love EFU is Halfbrood's work. This place wouldnt be the same without him
