Pale master questions

Post by Bulkas99 »

Hey all,
Pretty new to the server, read the wiki but couldnt easily find an answer for the following:
-what is the caster level of a 10 wiz/30 pm?
-Are epic warding/epic mage armour useful for the build?
-Any advice on a 30 pm build would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
B

Can't really help with number 3,

1) A lowly 10.
2) Yeah, keeps you alive while your summon does the dirty work.,
3) get that AC high.

I may be wrong, since I have no pale masters on this server, but I have read that PM levels do not actually grant any caster levels, only bonus spell slots, so wiz 10 pm 30 is still caster level 10, but has the spell slots of a 25th level wizard (which is the same as a 20th level wizard of course).

Though this may have been changed on this server or i could just be completely wrong.

Hehe now i am even more confused. Buffs wont last long with if PM levels dont count for caster levels. Probably will have to get my hands dirty before getting a definite answer :)
Another noobie question concerning EMA: is the 12 ac bonus the enchantment bonus or the base armour bonus (instead of the normal 3).

Thanks all,
B.

I believe Rufio's right about Pale Master caster levels... however for the sake of resisting a dispel, PM levels count as half caster levels. So a 10 wiz/30 PM could cast buffs that are the same difficulty to dispel (via Greater Dispelling for example) as a pure level 25 wizard.

So either way is bait vs a dispeller ';)
