09-21-07, 08:13 AM One of my players is a 29th lvl cleric of Moradin....he is the only Dwarf in the party and is currently working on an epic spell that will only buff the dwarves at home. Everyone is preparing the races and all to march on my BBG in Hades...so he is creating this Mass buff for the dwarven defenders...which in my world means dwarven defenders, clerics of moradin, and spell"hammers"....anyway he was wondering by making it exclusionary to buffing only one race would i be willing to give him a modier to lower its DC......just wanted to hear what other people thought and any reasonable modifier numbers. :)

09-21-07, 01:17 PM How about -20? Pretty significant cost.

09-22-07, 09:40 PM I would say -10 / -15; -20 seems too much too much.
In the end however it matters not much: there are probably more "heavier" mitigating factors to take into account (ritual casting for example)

09-23-07, 10:15 AM I'd also go with -10 or so; it doesn't actually matter that much.

09-23-07, 12:08 PM Well, it won't buff his fellow party members, if the PCs go on another campaign with an elf or human or halfling army it won't matter, etc. It's an extremely situational spell-it's really just a one-time spell.
