    * I should feel extreme reservations if my AC can be boosted to nearly 40 at level 7, and my party members are hovering around 18 and 20.

    * I should give it considerable thought before smashing an "evil being" that was recovered from an artic region. after detecting him as evil.

    * I should give more thought to dissolving the resultant corpse with acid.

    * while a logical process, I most likely shouldn't then dilute and evaporate said acid, thus completely obliterating about 90% of the DM's planned adventure.


    ...not that I managed all of those in one character or anything.
    it's a great story I think... even if I did wreck the game.

    Especially again at higher levels when I can shrug off most of the damage she does and she's still stuck sacrificing health just to attack.

    Yeah you were just thinking normal res. True res is higher level and I think costs more in components. It will bring you back from pretty much anything but being unnamed.
    Most people see a half orc and and think barbarian warrior. Me on the other hand? I think secondary trap handler and magic item tester. Also I'm not allowed to trick the next level one wizard into starting a fist fight with a house cat no matter how annoying he is.
