Urgh. This is the kind of talk I am trying to clear up. Everyone thinks Joe McCarthy knows everything since he became a ghost. Guess what people, ghosts are just bored people trying to make laughs for themselves by tricking people! Maybe if you did some critical thinking for once you wouldn't be such a bigot. loving dirt farmer.

Guys I have a serious problem. Whay class should I go with? I like hitting things with swords but I also like to set things on fire and throw lightening around but I dont wanna be some loser paladin.

You want to look into being a spellsword of some variety. Enchant your sword with all your fire and lightening stuff, then you can hit things with it.

Are Summoners within the Wizard wheel house? I'd lean towards no, but they are aware of how to properly lay sigils and magic circles.

Also, you ever seen a Summoner mess up summoning? It's not pretty, you end up with all sorts of bad poo poo showing up. Gotta be careful on those older editions of the summoners manual too, drat thing is written like it's meant to kill you doing it. Think it was put out there by early mage-slayers truth be told. Suuuuure, it says your gonna get a cute little puppy, you preform the ritual and end up with a goddamn evil baboon that's pretty drat pissed off.

Seriously be careful, with any spellcasting or summoning. It's a lot of rear end in a top hat wizards out there leaving purposely incomplete and incorrect spells and such.

It bothered me that Snape's personal annotated version of Advanced Potion Making made Harry so much better at potion making. Snape's students are struggling with instructions he knows are bad and he doesn't publish his own far superior instructions? Dude's an rear end in a top hat.

lol look at this scrub posting from page 1. Can you not read because you're a first-level Barbarian, or are you just lazy? Because if you'd been following the thread, you'd know that I already hooked Blizzy up with a sweet entry-level position in grove tending using my connections in the Druid circle.

Spellsword? Man, that gish poo poo is so played out. Let me let you in on a little secret, Melvin: women don't like a guy who multiclasses. Especially not one who ditches casting levels for attack bonus. Geez, where did you come from? Third Edition?

Hells yeah man, thanks for the gig. May not be the most glorious if starts but we all gotta start somewhere. Got a bonus in the form of some dusty rear end old grimoire. Looks like some pretty gnarly stuff in here. Should I try it out or wait till im a little more advanced?

"wizard" in the context of lord of the rings just means an immortal supernatural being bound by ridiculous government regulations to only use the magic one time to fight a balrog

Have you fellas of these "space wizards". The fight with swords of light and some are rather benign and just use magic to push stuff and lame rear end mental manipulation but these other ones, I guess they're evil, smash poo poo and throw lightening around.

Guys I have a problem.

Wife and I are both fighters and we just had our first kid. He was born with a full white beard. Is he a wizard or just a really good fighter? I've never raised a wizard and I'm scared my wife cheated on me.

Do you or her have any wizards as parents? In some cases it skips a generation.
