Spell Smith quasi

[odi]

Spell Smith (ss) quasi class
============================

Requirements: -14 lvls of wizard and 14 of dwarven defender before lvl 30
-spellfocus, greater spellfocus and epic spellfocus transmutation
-still spell
-weaponfocus light- or warhammer


Bonus feats: -automatic still spell

Benefits: -Smiths Hammer
=> When the ss casts a spell on this item, that spell is stored on the Smiths Hammer
When the ss then uses the smiths Hammer on a weapon or ammunition, that weapon or
ammunition gains a chance to cast the stored spell on hit.(When the Smiths Hammer is
used on a player, it affects the weapon in the players main hand).
After used the stored spell unstores.
-Number of uses per day will be something like 5 (please help discuss all the
numbers later on, if people react positively to this quasi =P)
-The chance the stored spell is cast on hit will depend on the lvl of the spell,
the dc of the stored spell (if high dc -> low chance, if low dc -> high chance),
the total dwarven defender and/or wizard levels and the spell focusses in the
stored spells school.
I also think there must be a minimun chance.
-dc stored spell will use the highest of strenght or intelligence.
-casterlvl stored spell will be wizard + dwarfen defender levels (or wiz + 1/2 dd
lvs, or wiz + 1/3 dd lvls (dunno what is balanced))
-duration...really no idea...not too short...not too long...maybe untill the ss rests?

-Smiths Anvill
=> Dunno if it can be made/scripted, but it must be something to stop the ss from casting
too many mage armors and other lower lvl spells...you'll see what i mean after i told you about
the spell changes later on...
Maybe something like u need to cast the spells below first on this item, then use it on somebody...
uses increase with wizzard lvls.

-Barrier of Weapons (hrmm that name can be better =P)
=> When the ss uses defensive stance he no longer recieves the normal bonusses but instead he
gains a damaging aura. (summons and starts whirling weapons around himself (maybe 6 bladebarrier
special effects in a circle around the ss?)).
-Damage done each round too all enemies within the area of effect.
-Damage increases with dwarven defender levels.
-Can select a type of damage (Bludgeoning, piercing or slashing) with a command
(like "!ssaurablud" or something =P ).
-Succesfull reflex save (dc uses strenght?) halves the damage done.
-At higher dwarven defender levels it also gets stun (will save) for some rounds and/or
knockdown (fortitude save) for 1 round.

Spell changes: -Mage armor (can cast on others)
Enhances ac armor bonus of target and gives damage immunity bonusses
- +1 ac armor bonus for every 3 base craft armor
- +2% immunity bonus to bludgeoning, piercing and slashing for every 5 base craft armor

-Shield (cannot cast on others)
Enhances ac shield bonus of the ss
- +1 ac shield bonus for every 3 base craft armor

-Magic weapon (can cast on others)
Gives extra slashing, piercing and bludgeoning damage to weapons
- +1 of each for every 3 (non-base) craft weapon

-flame weapon (can cast on others)
Gives extra fire, cold, acid and electricity damage to weapons
- +1 of each every 5 (non-base) craft weapon

-keen (can cast on others)
Gives keen + at lvl 40 ss overwhelming critical + at lvl 60 ss devestating critical

-greater magic weapon (can cast on others)
Enhances the enhancement bonus of weapons
- +2 every 7 base craft weapon

-summon creature I-IX
When cast on a melee weapon in the ss's inventory the ss summons a creature (invisible human appearance)
that wields the casted on weapon.
- the summoned creature is like black blade of disaster indistructable
- the summoned creature is a fighter of level: ss's wizzard lvls + 5 + the summon creature spell level
- duration: 1 round / ss lvl
- when unsummoned the weapon returns to the ss's inventory

-tensers transformation (cannot cast on others)
same but casterlevel = wizzard levels + 14

-black blade of disaster
Same but with increased duration
- duration 24 hours

-epic mage armor (cannot cast on others)
Same but also gives the ss damage imunity bonusses
- +1% damage immunity bonus to bludgeoning, piercing and slashing for every 1 base craft armor
- doesn't stack with mage armor


I think this was it... hope u like the idea and want to help me make it better...

ps. omg I just realized this was only my seccond post on this forum -.-

Love the idea needs nerfing in a few of the self buff areas giving this bad boy almost 100% immunity outside of hells isnt advisable if you built him with hells in mind perhaps cut the immunities by a good 25-50% and add a cut to hells penalties of .5%/level with at most a 30% reduction of the immunity of physical in hells. also the summon creature effects are brilliant its a shame the sheer number of the spell edits makes this a nogo because funky said same thing to mine and yours is only 7 less but stilla daunting amount. also defensive stance is hardcoded afaik and you would need to add an item to replace it similiar to defensive weave the % to cast on hit should be roughly 1 per 3 SS levels - spell level making it a 19% chance to cast a lvl 1 spell a 15% for a lvl 5 and a 11% for a lvl 9 which seems reasonable a caster level 35+ MS on hit seems harshly powerful so maybe once every 2 rounds seems a reasonable bonus however still powerful overall its a tad strong as is and this owuld be the only way for anyone getting howler to make a char and you cant have that with a quasi.

someone like the idea!
Like i said the numbers still need working on...
about epic mage armor 63% at lvl 60, add the dd and the item bonusses u could get 100% yes, give a penalty or remove the dd bonus or don't let it stack with items...
(actually i've never been to hells yet... )

Maybe, as was my first idea, replace the summon creature spells also by an item... could that be possible?

and indeed i ment the def stance simmilar to the weave

about the on hit chance...indeed i forgot to say that only once every 2 rounds or so it has a chance of casting.
a normal spellcaster would have no chance of not casting the spell, the ss does. But it must be so that the ss needs weapons to cast his spells; with so few wizard lvls his spells would suck. so the ss cán cast spells like he's an almost full caster only the spells have to go through weapons.
i think if u make the dc of the on hit spell use str or int, it would not be as good as that of a full caster, but also not so bad that it has no use of using the on hit cast spells thing.
the chance to cast a lvl 9 spell on hit at lvl 60 i think should be something like 20-30%, but the chance on a lvl1 spell should be 100% in fact it should be 100% from lvl 30 above.
sooo if u took 60% - 10 x spell lvl + 1 per ss lvl
with a minimum of 10 % it would be something like this:
chance
ss lvl1 lvl2 lvl3 lvl4 lvl5 lvl6 lvl7 lvl8 lvl9
30 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 -
40 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10
50 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20
60 100 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30

add for spell focus 6 for greater spelfocus 4 and epicspellfocus 2 u get 10% bonus.

thats the problem with dd it requires dwarf...

about some of the spells...
(epic)mage armor: maybe the immunity % should depend on wiz lvls not on craft skill

flame weapon: depend on wiz lvls instead of craft skill

The addition of the onhits is a vey cool idea, but the rest of the class is horribly imbalanced. We might use the idea in some form, but the class is overpowered as is.

ok...if u say so =P and thanx u like my onhit idea

[Isendur]

If some of the stat boosty things ac ect.. was decreased the onhit idea would make this build very fun to play i love the idea.
