uber WL incantations missing [Aura of Flame, Instill Vulnerability] http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/lists/invocations (sniffle)

We do have Instill Vulnerability in PRC

Both invocations you mentioned are for Dragonfire Adept class, and not for Warlocks

My mistake = no splatbooks. I'll delete it from the post.

I'm jellin', though. They would go very nicely with WL.

That doesn't do you any good with a negative charisma modifier.

The racially adjusted bonus is +1 / +7 Max items. If you don't play with item mods, it isn't worth much.

It's basically a shameless +7 Flex for a high SR build w/ Imp Evasion.

Isint expertise disabled when casting?...or doses this not count ,being  an Invocation?

Cos this info will take my current fey/warlock build into a whole new direction!

Unless the PRC manages to fix it somehow (I don't think it does), Expertise and Improved Expertise are not disabled when casting, although I understand they should be according to the PnP rules. It's a handy "feature" that I have made good use of in the past, although not recently.

There is a Bioware switch that fixes this.

Code: [Select]


    // * Spellcasting: Some people don't like caster's abusing expertise to raise their AC
    // * Uncommenting this line will drop expertise mode whenever a spell is cast by a player
       SetModuleSwitch (MODULE_VAR_AI_STOP_EXPERTISE_ABUSE, TRUE);

Should be in your Module OnLoad script.

I was unaware of this switch, thanks.

So the answer to magpie45's question: I've checked, and I'm pretty sure the PRC never uses this switch, so unless you're playing a module that does so, you should be able to use Expertise while casting for your warlock.

Per NWN Wiki (a good ref)

http://nwn.wikia.com/wiki/Expertise

"Under the default behavior, this can be a useful feat for casters who do not make attacks, as they will gain the AC benefit at effectively no cost. "

Ah well!,for a few moments there...
