This is something that often is forgotten. You aren't playing the game, you are running the game. One player might want to play a fluffy bunny PC, while everyone else wants to play grim-dark sci-fi.
ASK THE CAPTAIN MOVIE
Like a movie that tries to do too many things at once. The player might dislike you saying "No", but if you let all the players get away with anything they want, your campaign will become muddled and fall apart. That means sometimes you make individual players unhappy so that the over all group is happy. I use the term PLAYERS, in the plural sense. They all ending in a way that made you feel "mixed" Sure there was triumph sometimes, but often there was something that made you go, "Errr." It was entertainment none the less.Ģ. It was a comedy, but not a single episode had a happy ending. I present the TV series Taxi as the prime example. A TV series can be entertaining, yet be depressing. They fill you with dread then remove the dread. Is an action movie entertaining? It's supposed to be. Your job is not to make the players HAPPY. However, that's my job as a DM, and your job as well.Ī DM's primary job is to entertain the players.ġ.
Still, who doesn't love the chance to just watch the world burn? You are a very solid caster, but your focus may prove your undoing.
ASK THE CAPTAIN PLUS
Plus your damage is now basically fire, the most commonly defended against energy type. Your wizard will never be completely as awesome as a flat out wizard. Is it OP? Well, it does cost you three feats, and a level dip.
True, spontaneous spells with metamagic are a full-round to cast, but the sheer number of options now available to you are staggering.
Suddenly, every spell with an energy description can be turned into a fire spell and cast spontaneously. Now take the time to buy Energy Substitution (fire). Suddenly you can ditch any spell for a fire spell of the same level. Then follow up with a Wizard or other arcane spellcaster. Nothing states this only applies to divine spells, so it also applies to other classes as well.įriend, you just read about my new fav one level dip.īest coupled with the Cloister Cleric, I find that you can dump Fire and Knowledge for the Devotion feats, then keep the Time domain for the Improved Initiative feat. There is a fun little feat called Initiate of Amaunator where you have to become a cleric of this sun god, then "You can spontaneously cast any spell on your spell list that has the fire descriptor."
