XR large shield only giving +13 base AC?  Maybe +14-16 to better compete with BUR randomized shields and obviously asmo shield. This particular shield is limited to PM class (Where are the sorc slots for sorc/pm?) and also gives no resistance/immunities. Maybe add some more defensive benefits to the shield/skill bonus? Also the necro school immunity doesn't do anything seeing you can SS yourself for the same benefit. |

Yeah, its not meant to be a paragon item, which is why i left it rather blank at the moment. Necro imm was cool theme thing but i guess its not as useful as some other things. Edited slightly.

Necro is a cool theme but seeing what we have available (staves w/SS) it just seems rather useless and I personally would prefer some defensive aspect (maybe something as simple as 30/ neg). Also CoD has already been adjusted to HUGE size so increasing that size is pretty redundant if you ask me. Perhaps focus on another Necro/PMBased Spell (ie: Wrack, Enervation, Wail, pwk?)

----- Special Ideas - 1 Wail spell instant like Shifter banshee, 2 Higher inflict enervation, 3 CoD makes 2 rolls if saved, 4 Wrack x2 -DR, 5 Death Armour grants freedom ability and move speed without the green blob, 6 Shadow shield grants spell mantle (then take the one off of shield), 7 If Wail is saved, does CLdX Sonic dmg, AoE enervation (like a CoD effect), 8 AoE Eybite, 9 Create undead spells instead summon a bbod like creature that does neg infliction on hit . 1 it doesn't instant kill 2 probably op 3 or it could get +dc - or kill more stuff 4 probably too strong 5 so it would grant fom and movement speed decrease immunity 6 I like this one7 it probably would create kb 8 seems a good option9 not sure - but such ability could be given to mummy dust |

1 - Shifter banshee wail kills them much faster than normal spell Wail is what i mean. (it instakills them before the animation is even half done) 5 - Yeh, just a clone of FoM but without the annoying visual. 7 - Does that matter? 8 - Yeah this one seems pretty cool, i'd like either one as an AoE |

I think the eyebite aoe is the optimal choice, since it doesn't stack with Prayer therefore it wouldn't be OP like AoE enervation or something. I dont think the spell is used enough as it is since it's a single target spell.

I dont think the spell is used enough as it is since it's a single target spell. Then the spell should be buffed without the item, no? Or when used by pms at least. |

Yes, it probably could do with a bit of love, specially since it's 3 levels higher than prayer, and the enemy needs to be able to see the caster (not sure if blind counts). But that's not the point of this thread.
Maybe Eyebite could get a bonus -1 save drop for every 60 persuade?
