I am dying for a working version of the ghost touch spell. Even if you could come up with a spell script for me I would be forever grateful.

See I am making a new race from D&D for NWN2 called the Star Elves that I have done a significant amount of work for thus far but I just cannot wrap my mind around scripting.

I don't know if you are familiar with the spell, but ghost touch is able to be cast on either weapons or armor, when cast on the players weapon it allow the weapons deals damage normally against incorporeal beings, bypassing their avoidances versus other weapons, and on armor it protects you from an incorporeal being's attacks that would normally ignore armor.

Do you think it would be possible for you to script this spell for me? I need it to use for a feat for their racial ability "Otherworldly Touch" for my Star Elves. Per the D&D rules they can only cast it between sunrise and sunset, but for the ease of scripting any time of day for casting is alright. I would like the spell to be able to target the player himself and it applies the armor bonus and the weapon bonus for bypassing incorporeal avoidance VS other weapons. This would be a self only spell, 1 use a day, unlimited duration. I would fully accredit you for all your help when the mod is released if you could do this for me.

My email is moc.liamtoh|ii.lmj#moc.liamtoh|ii.lmj and my screenname on the Bioware forums is Veshnakar010. I am also on AIM, screenname Lying in Leaves.

I'll have to look into to see if it's possible but I'm not sure it is. I know I've glanced at that spell before to see about adding it but NWN1/2 doesn't deal with Incorporeal creatures the same was as PnP (they use concealment instead). Creatures such as the wraith have no incorporeal attack; they are treated as normal attacks. Making changes to handle incorporeal beings will have to be done in the combat engine itself unless I'm missing something (which is why I'll need to look again). You may have to look at doing a different ability with the same "intent" of the original.

I actually found a way into solving my own problem. It seems the ability "Ghost Warrior" that spirit shaman receive at level 7 works identically to the offensive ability of ghost touch in that it ignores concealment on incorporeal creatures. I just made my own tlk and basically copied and renamed the feat, gave it a new icon, and made it a starting racial ability for them. Here's for hoping it works once I get in game. And as to incorporeal creatures not having a special type of attack, you were correct, so it seems having the offensive aspect of ghost touch is the only necessary part, so I guess problem solved! =) Thank you very much.

Holy Smite is coming as part of the Glory domain. I'll have to look at beastclaws but if that is the one that turns your hand into a claw that's not that useful in NWN2. :(

Kaedrin any chance of some good summon spells? I play a conjurer mage and the summon spells are pretty poor i think, the pale master summons are very weak also. Do you plan on looking into this area for future releases?

Re: Spells you would like to see

steelfiredragon 1197754177|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

holy word
shadowblast
anger of the noonday sun
draconic might
fiendform

and a custom summoning spell that summons a wyvern

and will you be adding holy smite to the good domain when glory comes?

and yes beast claws is the spell that makes your hands into slashings, and it would be fun mind you with a druid monk build

Draconic Might is already in and was in the very first spell pack I did (Paladin) and Holy Word was added when the domains were rolled in (looks like it needs a small fix to work against evil correctly though). I'll look at the others. I've got summons on the list for the Nature update and also for the Blackguard/Assassin (undead).

Oops just realised my post last night for druid spells reincarnate & baneful polymorph really should have been in this thread — sorry.

Re: Spells you would like to see

Kaedrin 1199403826|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

I'm not familiar with Reincarnate so I'll read up on it. I'm almost set against adding baneful polymorph in it's real form because I hate the "easy win" factor of it.

Re: Spells you would like to see

steelfiredragon 1199438750|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

that spell in pnp works like resurrect, save you can be brought back as something else.

for instance, your lvl 19 human fighter can get himself killed off and be brought back by a druid with this spell as a lvl 19 gold dragon fighter….. well atleast that is my interpretation of it.

the only crpg that had it was ToEE and it functioned just like rasie dead.

Hello Kaedrin,
damn… was really looking forward to baneful polymorph as an alternative to slay living for RP purposes (don't wanna use death/ evil magic)…. although — couldn't you make the save against it the same as slay living, getting rid of any easy win factor (I already thought it was less powerful than slay living for druid lvl5).
Otherwise I am going to have to wait for mass fowl (only epic spell I'm taking, along with dragonshape & companion - even though everyone bags all 3 out as being horribly underpowered), & am really looking forward to some of your upcoming druid feats instead.

thanks for all the hard work

Re: Spells you would like to see

Kaedrin 1199669285|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

The problem with baleful polymorph is that it turns any foe that fails the save into a worthless enemy. Adding it in would require giving it to warlocks and for a level 5 spell it's just a bit much for now. Slay Living is Death Magic (so easily blocked in NWN) and also requires a touch attack. If I had a choice Slay Living wouldn't be level 5. :P

Maze, Imprisonment and Freedom.

Maze was just awesome for temporarily taking a key target out of the fight for awhile. Could be implemented by using cutsceneparalyze() on the target and changing their model to the invisible man (that transparent actor that the mordenkainen sword uses).

Imprisonment would be like a L9 flesh to stone that hides the body and is permanent - and works on any target. You could use the same method as I mentioned above for maze but just have it never expire. Upon casting imprisonment a Lore check should be made vs. the targets CR to see if the -4 penalty to the will save is applied.

Freedom if used in the area of effect of an imprisoned target would return them to normal in the same state they were in before being imprisoned (like stone to flesh).

Another excellent "time out" spell during a big battle,Temporal Stasis seems simple enough, add a nifty vfx to the target and make them unkillable/plot target. Dispel magic or freedom removes the effect, should be useable on friends (nosave) and enemies (standard save).

Limited wish (not wish as the L9 version is too open) as following the guidelines of d20srd.org:

* Duplicate any sorcerer/wizard spell of 6th level or lower, provided the spell is not of a school prohibited to you.
* Duplicate any other spell of 5th level or lower, provided the spell is not of a school prohibited to you.
* Duplicate any sorcerer/wizard spell of 5th level or lower, even if it’s of a prohibited school.
* Duplicate any other spell of 4th level or lower, even if it’s of a prohibited school.
* Undo the harmful effects of many spells, such as geas/quest or insanity.
* Produce any other effect whose power level is in line with the above effects, such as a single creature automatically hitting on its next attack or taking a -7 penalty on its next saving throw.

Going based on what I miss from BG2 for the low level ones

Spell Contingency
Spell Trigger Those 3 would be amazing and are like bread and butter mage spells
Spell Sequencer
Chromatic Orb hehe

Spells from NWN that are missing

Epic Spells

Epic Mage Armour
Epic Warding
Summon red dragon:- epic I think
Summon Planetar

I think a couple of ones I like were removed from 2nd-3rd edition. Are proper simulacrons (with spells) still in as epic?

Obsidian is working on the Symbol spells for an upcoming patch.

Telekinesis isn't something we can implement in the engine.
Baleful polymorph I won't do (there are enough issues as is with polymorphing and it could break encounters).
Epic Mage Armor is too strong (46 spellcraft anyway).
Epic Warding requires a 34 Spellcraft (requires level 31)
Spell Contingency and Spell Trigger are not really possible due to engine limitations without an absolutely absurd amount of work.
Spell Sequencer doesn't exist in 3.5 that I can find. The closest is spell matrix which is a level 7 spell that allows two spells of level 3 or less to be cast at the same time. Doable with a lot of work but not really worth the effort compared to what else I can do in the same amount of time.
Chromatic Orb isn't a 3.5 spell (or even a 3.0 spell that I can find).
Dragon Knight (epic) summoning an adult red dragon with a 32 spellcraft (level 29) is doable.
Greater Ruin (epic) with a 25 spellcraft is doable.
Permanent spells aren't something I plan to add either.

Dragonshape is a level 9 spell I'm interested in but I can't remember what the source book is (I think maybe PHBII).
