New Class Details

[shadowca121]

Wow thats a really interesting PRC!!!

I already have a character that I have been roleplaying as priest of Auril. He will definately have to consider this new prestige class.
I have yet to meet another follower of Auril and I thought it would make alot of interesting roleplaying opportunities.

[undeadsteak]

Whoa.


If this means more banites, I believe I shall be logging on again. I just wish I was a Divine caster >_<

[Karagath]

Really nice PrC ideas =D
I wonder how that'll balance out.. I feel sorry for any lowbies who walk past an Ice Fury Aura.

One question I have about that Aura, would Freedom of Movement cancel out the slowing part of it? I think it should otherwise people who can't make the save could be reeeaaallly screwed.

[Aries1918]

Doesn't Freedom of Movement always cancel out slow? I don't think you will have to make that save if you that spell on you.

[Kangleton]

Freedom of Movement + Resistance to Cold = Dead Ice Fury

[Saulus]

I keep laughing because people keep saying "Oh noes not Icefury!" ... Umm... how about a sorcerer with a few fireballs handy? Ouch.

[Aries1918]

Yeah, Kangleton's suggestion + Saulus' suggestion = dead crispy fried Ice fury. I still want to make one despite this. The RP that would go along with them sounds too good to pass up

[Kangleton]

Heh, if I were an Ice Fury, I would just prepare an Immunity to Fire spell, which lasts 24 hours...

So...

Yeah.

[Peridan]

....which in turn is subject to any kind of dispel magic.

[Kangleton]

Well, no, that isn't true. Dispel works on a set grouping of rules, and at a certain point, a caster can actually become indespellable. I'm pretty sure a Mord's dispel always works, but I don't know anyone with ninth level spells.

[Aries1918]

Well, when all else fails, bring in the guy with the biggest weapon.

[Peridan]

Word, I agree

[Dark presence]

As far as I know, immunity to [element] only gives 100% immunity in NWN 2, so you'd still be vulnerable after the extra -%. Also, an Icefury would get the immunity spell 2 levels later than a pure druid/cleric.

And no one is ever immune to greater dispels until well into epic levels.

[KociPazur]

Hmm ... I think there is too much focus on Ice Fury's vulnerability to fire as the way of fighting him (or her) ... if your enemy is allergic to nuts you can still use a baseball bat if he (she) keeps his (her ... but that's unlikely an option if it's a she) mouth closed and you cannot kill him (well ... or her) stuffing with peanut butter ... LOL

[KociPazur]

and if you forget about betting all on fire than Ice Fury says "What was that?" after being critted with sneak attack of a poisoned dagger ... on knocked down and kicked on the ribs with a conventional heavy boot... or shot with Greater Isaacs ... or whatever else than hurts creatures immune to fire damage ... and these words will be already spoken in The Forest of Eternal Night if you do a good job... but I agree that making it more difficult to protect Ice Fury from fire would add some spice to the class and make more sense that I agree with.
