02-23-05, 04:58 PM The speed enchantment was in the Defenders of the faith book. I was just wondering if that can still be apllied to 3.5. Can it?

02-23-05, 06:07 PM God willing, no. The thing is that's it's based on 3.0 haste; nothing does the same thing in 3.5, and certainly not at such a low level. If you're using 3.0 haste, then I could see a DM allowing it. If you're using 3.5 haste, the only hope is in a DM with a weak will or preternaturally low foresight.

02-23-05, 06:11 PM No it can't as the 3.0 haste doesn't exist anymore in 3.5

Also I think it was errated.

One was a very overpowered 3rd level spell.
The other is a situationally useful 3rd level spell.

Most will argue that 3.0 haste was broken. My DMs argue otherwise, since in 3.0, every monster and their pet goldfish had a way to haste, and the party had to spend a round to get it cast.

(since this is SRD, i believe...)
Basically 3.5 haste is +1 attack on a full attack, +1 to AC, to hit, reflex saves, and +30 move speed
3.0 haste was an extra standard action - move, attack.... +4 ac....and some others i think too..

02-23-05, 09:26 PM Keep it at a +3 enchantment bonus, and have it opperate as the boots of speed. You have a total of 10 rounds of haste a day.
