Persistent Spell

Persisten Spell er et Metamagic feat fra Complete Arcane (også fundet i Forgotten Realms CS).

Der er stor diskussion på nettet om hvorledes den virker, men fra wizards er der givet nogle klare svar:
Despite it being technically legal, Wizards has deemed Time Stop not persistable by saying that the 1d4+1 rounds is "effectively instaneous" for the purpose of Persistant Spell.
Touch spells are allowed since, when used on oneself, they function just as a spell with Range Personal.

Der er dog stadig nogle der mener at touch spells ikke er persistable, men det må gå som deres egne husregler, siden Wizards mener det er ok.

Så kommer til vores egen opfattelse af hvordan Persistent Spell skal bruge:
For det første synes jeg vi skal gøre det klart at magier der indeholder charges af en eller anden art ikke kan persistes. Det er lidt uklart i teksten, men for god ordens skyld kunne det være fedt hvis vi lavede vores egne faste regler der.
Jeg mener også at vi skal tillade touch spells, da det er de officielle regler og jeg ikke ser nogen grund til ikke at følge dem.

Her en liste hentet på nettet. Der er ikke touch-range spells med her.

Og nu til noget jeg gerne vil diskutere lidt. Sidst vi spillede i sommerhus spurgte jeg Rasmus om jeg kunne bruge miracle til at efterligne en arcane magi som jeg så ville kunne persiste. Det mente Rasmus ikke ville du, da det er en miracle magi der bliver kastet og den ikke lever op til Persisten Spell-kravene (ikke Rasmus?)

En wizard kan tage et lvl i cleric og divine metamagic og derefter persiste alle de arcane spells han lyster. En cleric kan bruge en miracle på at persiste lvl 7 arcane spells eller lavere. Det er en lvl 9 for en lvl 7, hvor en wizard bytter ligeover. (det var spil-balancen)

Desuden mener jeg at miracle duplikerer en magi, dvs. at det bliver til den magi, undtagen at det bliver en lvl 9 magi. Hvad jeg kan læse mig frem til er der ingen der taler imod at metamagic feats kan bruges på miracle. Man kan derimod sige at en præst der går og beder sin gud om hjælp hver eneste dag til at duplikere magier, måske ikke holder sig særlig polulær ved sin gud. Jeg synes det skal være muligt at bruge miracle på denne måde og så lade det være op til DM om præsten misbruger sine kræfter på noget der ikke er i gudens interesse, eller direkte spild af kræfter.

Det begynder, at minde om Magic The Gathering på højt plan
