An Idea for some new spells!

[FranOhmsford]

With Prot Normal Missiles I was suggesting a way for it to work in ddo - Didn't know that it isn't even in 3rd ed.
Still the spell is there and would be a good addition to this game IMO.

I don't really see how the ability to stop monsters standing over your body while regenning/slowly dying would be OP.
Would certainly make Diehard more viable as a feat.

I already accepted that mass invis invalidates Invis 15'Rad. - I was suggesting changing Silence 15'Rad to Mass silence in the same way for DDO.

Greater Melf's would be a nice addition but I still want to know where the fire DoT is.

No-one yet has said anything good or bad about Phantasmal Force or Imp Phantasmal Force. I put these in to give Illusionists some dmg spells at low lvl - I'd suggest them being basically MM and Force Missiles but Illusions so Int check to disbelieve {Of course this is a flavour suggestion but would allow Illusion DC rather than Evoc.}.

I believe they have Prismatic Ray filling this role already. (whoops that is evocation)

And it will destroy a lot of quest.
Think about altar of the sky in Epic Small Problem for example...

And tiny hut will be the same. Quests are pretty balanced about shrines and resting time!
To me add possibility to cast a personal shrine in quest like "Coalescent Chamber" and "Chains of Flame" where shrines are really poor will nerf a lot those few quests where a little strategy is needed (and they are very few!)

Not to mention that Turbine would lose some moneny over it (assuming people are actually dumb enough to buy a ethernal shrine)

Greater Melf's would be a nice addition but I still want to know where the fire DoT is.

Burning blood?

With all the talk of "Fly", I'm surprised no one's mentioned "Levitate". It too has similar code/world issues, but it's easier to handle.

Telekinetic Grab - Pulls Target Monster towards the caster at incredible speed. also allows levers/valves/switches to be thrown at a distance (only works if lever is tageted, in line-of-sight, and not blocked)

Telekinetic Push - as Telekinetic Grab, but forces Target Monster away from caster. Deals a small amount of Bludgeon Damage on impact with wall or floor.

Telekinetic Wave - As Telekinetic Push, but acts on ALL targets in a radius around Caster. Doesn not allow throwing of levers

[Vellrad]

I would like to have protection from healing spell or whatever is it called- you cast it, and victim can't heal until spell is dispelled. Mobs got that, so why not give it to players?

[Qezuzu]

you know oddly I was thinking about this over the weekend and I thought it would be cool if they made a spell called greater melf's acid arrow that basically was a stronger version and acted as if it had the improved precise shot feat. I suppose there could be some better name etc.

I love this idea.

EDIT: But it sounds very prone to bugs.

Where are these from? Any telekinetic spell would be nice to have.
So far 'violent thrust' usage of telekinesis cover both push and grab of monsters.
Reverse gravity may cover wave and there's also telekinetic sphere that can trap a monster on a reflex save.

[Asmodeus451]

in response to the above question, there have been various incarnations of Telekinetic type spells in D&D since the old AD&D days. the versions i posted are simply wat i think would work in DDO.

[FranOhmsford]

I may be wrong but I believe this is also an acid dot not fire. Firewall is imo the reason for there not being a fire dot but is a completely different style of spell to the new dot spells so again it seems we want an acid {greater melf's?} and a fire dot to go with them.

Prismatic Ray is also quite high lvl compared to the likes of Magic Missile {Phantasmal Force} so not really a choice for a low lvl illusion anyway.

The Ethereal Rest Shrine is ridiculously expensive and would surely be used a lot more {earning Turbine more money} if permanently halved in price at least.

[donfilibuster]

Right on for telek, we need telek spells.

Since you mention phantasmal force, we can use more illusion spells as well.
shadow evocation and shadow conjuration spells come to mind though sound a bit overpowered.

The shadow conjuration obviously may be limited to the existing spells (maybe picked from a drop down).
It is clarly not useful for pets but it'd be for fogs, etc.
It lets you bundle sleet storm, stinking cloud, glitterdust, obscuring mist and fog cloud.
Furthermore you can cast grease (grin), melf acid arrow (ooo), web (web!), mage armor (lol).
And lets not talk about the greater version, so yeah it'd be overpowered if it weren't for the will save, andin general the illusion focus need some love.

More useful would be shadow evocation but in this case i'd say your elemental boosters shouldn't apply.
The PnP version doesn't say anything about it, so it'd be purely a balancing excuse.
Enhancement lines and item boosters are from DDO, but surely metamagic costs should apply normally.

not arcane, but i want:

Earthquake

The Force is strong with this one.

The Force is strong with this one.

honestly, i had NO IDEA thats wat these abilities would look like, but ya..............

I've always been a fan of the Orb Spells.

Orb of Force 10d6 Force Damage
Orb of Acid 15d6 Acid Damage + effect
Orb of Ice 15d6 Cold Damage + effect
Orb of Fire 15d6 Fire damage + effect
Orb of Lightning 15d6 Lightning + effect
Orb of Sound 15d4 and I think + effect

single target
Conjuration effect no spell resistance in pnp so worked on Golems


Mirror Image would be interesting

some ranger spells like Arrow Storm could be fun

Black Tentacles would be great
