An idea for spells

[Strakeln]

I'm no PnP rules buff, but there might be some feat or ability that could translate into an enhancement for this:

I would like a pink pony. My pink pony would be the ability to use a higher level spell slot to load a lower level spell. The character I notice this the most for is my ranger. First level spells I would like to have loaded: jump, resist energy, ram's might, tumble, longstrider. Level 1 spell slots: 2. Level three spells I would like to have loaded: <crickets>. Level 3 spell slots: 2.

That's my pink pony. For today.

Reading your post I actually thought for a minute that you wanted a pink pony. That got me started thinking about the phantom steed spell hehe, but you do bring up a good point.

[Lorien_the_First_One]

Well you are supposed to be able to do that as per D&D rules...

[Ringos]

Agree with the OP...and I want a pony!


(I would also like at least a dozen weapon set slots or allow us to make hot-bar slot weapon sets)

HAH! Really? I was just pulling that one out of my ***! Go figure... a rule for everything.

Okay, I no longer want a pink pony, I want "alignment with PnP rules"

Ya know, baring techinical difficulties, this would probably be a balanced change as long as you had to pay the increased SP cost of the higher level slot.

EDIT: Just to help the OP out, my 15 ranger / 1 fighter is able to get 4 of those spells mem'd. Jump, resist energy, and ram's might at level 1, and Mass longstrider at level 4. Would be nice to have tumble mem'd too though.

Wait, wait, wait a minute!

Are you saying that at level 15 ranger, we get another 1st level spell slot? Or is it at level 14?

Cuz that'll make me very happy, especially if it is level 14.

In reality, all I want is resist energy, ram's might, and jump. I don't need tumble (although it would be nice to have), and longstrider scrolls are cheap/last 6 minutes a pop.

Wait, wait, wait a minute!

See the DDOWiki: http://ddo.enterwiki.net/page/Image:Ranger.gif for full progression.

But yes at 14th level you get 4th level spells and another 1st.

So you don't want to use heighten to raise the spells level?

At level 15 ranger I have 2 level four spells to mem. So I can mem Freedom of Movement and Mass Longstrider. There really aren't any better spells to take at that level.

It's not about spell level, it's about spell slots. There are a lot of good level 1 ranger spells, but very few, if any, good level 3 ranger spells.
