So this ring dropped for me the other day and I've been wanting to utilize it ever since cause it's so OP:  With this ring I could get extra SP for Heartbane so imagine the power of instakilling crit vulnerable mobs with an Assassin! Was thinking about maxing Int of course for DC, am torn about using SP book vs. ESF book for Heartbane. Although now that I'd have 51 SP instead of 50 I am more inclined to DC. Thoughts? |

That's what I aim to do with every crit vulnerable monster on the map.

yeah i suppose a caster sin wouldnt be to bad if you could get 72 intel into it and there was a full set of tia spellslot gear for it so you could book something equivalent to a cleric in heartbane spellslots, then it would basically be a ranged sin(read = onetrick cleric?). but I haven't spent any time at all papercrafting one to see if it would be viable with max intel

If a druid drop epic abjuration you might take advantage of that juicy spell penetration.
You could even use elves' able learner and pick some rogue levels to max all skills but discipline and parry.

See? Perfect synergy. I'm sure there must be some awesome use for this ego, why would it drop otherwise?

For what's worth, it's the 3rd edition D&D terrible spell system who is at fault.

"When you said delete, did you mean the assassin, or the ring?"
"Yes"

a full set of tia spellslot gear for it so you could book something equivalent to a cleric in heartbane spellslots right, the answer to so many weird and mostly useless possibilities: "if only there was tia gear for it" here's an idea, just let tia gear change slots to suit the user. then not only would everyone's tia gearing issues suddenly vanish, but also every possible build in the game (as well as those we didn't think of yet) can get tia gear if they want. i say the same for abyss and dachy. staffs, fashion accessories, and more exotic/specialized pieces--those that don't come off the shelf in diff versions for different classess (ie devotions of mystra, staff of forsaken sorcery, confluence of silvanus)--would remain unchanged. i know seems op, but eh? lets go. |

The only non-primary caster spell level increase ego I've seen any major use for is the Ranger one as this enables max caster level for some useful spells on a 39/1 Ranger build, pretty much all the others are treated as trash loot unless people have found a use for them that I am not aware of?

If it had CL +20 it would still be useless.

This. I have the pally CL ego on a pretty good mord ring and I don't hesitate to swap it out to balance gear....it's just not enough benefit to justify an exclusive gear slot. |
