Mystyk 07-13-04, 07:37 PM	I need advice on any good 4th, 5th, & 6th level spells. I don't know which one to get (just turned into a 13th level sorceror). If there is any information that is needed, just ask. All I need is advice on choosing my spells. Keep in mind that this is a 3.0 character running by 3.0 rules in every way, shape, and form. Thanks for all the help that is offered.
xorn king 07-13-04, 08:47 PM	Well, that all depends on your play style. I can open the PHB and use almost all of the spells well. What type is your mage? Artillery Platform? Enchanter? Battle Control?
Mystyk 07-13-04, 09:11 PM	He doesn't have much of a strategy going. He is my first character and I play him as he goes (he plays life by the day, pretty much). I roleplay my character with that exact thought. We have gone against cloud giants, grey renders, umberhulks, even a cryohydra, and we are now in a forest. He is wearing armor (mithral shirt +2). He has a feat (taken twice) that allows him to cast in armor. Do you need to know much else?
xorn king 07-13-04, 09:20 PM	Ok, I will just throw out some of the good ones you can use and I will just use the PhB for spells then: 4th StoneSkin Greater Invisability Polymorph Stone Shape Scrying Dimension Door 5th Major Creation Teleport Dominate Person Cone of Cold Shadow Evocation Permanency 6th Dispel Magic, Greater True Seeing Chain Lightining Flesh to Stone Blah blah, again, I can use just about all of the spells well, these are just a few choice picks
Mystyk 07-13-04, 09:25 PM	Thanks. Could you give me some spells from any other books? We are in the Forgotten Realms campaign, if that helps. Anything from any book or anything from the net would help, I just don't know where to look for anything and I don't have the books, that's all.
smrtgmp 07-13-04, 09:25 PM	It would be alot easier if you told us what spells you already have. Off topic: your avatar bears a striking resemblance to Michael Jackson.
xorn king 07-13-04, 09:31 PM	Yea, that woudl greatly help *looks around his dad's store at the shelf of Fr books..and thinks of how many spells are in each* Yea.....greatly help
Mystyk 07-13-04, 09:36 PM	lol, good point. I'll just give what I have from 4-6 already. -4th: Greater Invisibility Sonic Orb Polymorph Self -5th: Firebrand (altered for sonic damage instead; "thunderbrand") Hold Monster -6th: True Seeing I hope that helps a little.
Tevandel Surefacet 07-13-04, 10:07 PM	4th -Polymorph Other (my favorite 3.0 4th level spell!) -Charm Monster -Otiluke's Resilient Sphere -Lesser Geas (Have DM'ed for a sorc who got huge milage out of this one!) 5th -Mind Fog (reduce those Will saves) -Cone of Cold -Teleport 6th -Greater Dispelling -Disintegrate -Chain Lightning -True Seeing
smrtgmp 07-13-04, 10:20 PM	Another great 4th level spell is Black Tentacles. However, its hard to match the versatility of Polymorph, especially with the limited spells known for a sorcerer. I'll dig up my 3.0PHB and get back to you shortly.
Harsk 07-14-04, 01:05 AM	Depending on flavor preference... 4th level Enervation Fire Shield Dimensional Anchor Lower Spell Resistance (Draconomicon) 5th level Feeblemind (probably the rudest thing you can do to an enemy spellcaster; beware spell turning, tho...) Wall of Force Teleport Telekinesis 6th level Disintegrate Otiluke's Freezing Sphere (busted in half, in 3.0) Project Image Mass Haste Contingency Admittedly, all I did to come up with this list was look at my character's spell list and pull the ones I usually memorize... but I think that's as good a way as any. :) ~Harsk
