Counterspell EVERYTHING by 4th level -- does it work?
« on: June 21, 2014, 09:04:25 PM »
human Cleric1/HParagon3
undeath domain
2 flaws, 28+ point buy
wis 20 (18 buy, +2 paragon), cha 10+, con 13
feats:
flaw: improved counterspell
flaw: heighten spell
1st: DMM heighten
domain: extra turning
human: extra turning 
paragon: earth sense 
3rd: earth spell


With DMM, can heighten 0-level spell to 9th, Earth Spell counts it as 10th @ CL 12. 
@ 1st level, can counter any 8th-level spell @ CL 9.
With my left over WBL (i.e., all of it), I'm sure I could buy something that let's me increase my CL.

Thoughts?



(I'm quite sure that I'm not breaking any new ground here; but the idea just happened to have occurred to me last night while contemplating a couterspelling sorc)

Do it at level 3 with Divine Countermagic + Divine Defiance.

I did not know that those were things.
Oh well.

hmm ... this would probably need a re-arguing (or re-litigating)
of the whole Miracle At Level 6, needs Extra Slot, and heck
lets argue it doesn't work anyway.

Would it be that only Necromancy school spells would work (currently)?
idk just that CLs aren't even, hazy suspicions it's a little iffy, but idk.
 


Do it at level 3 with Divine Countermagic + Divine Defiance.

Looks to me like how D.C. is worded, it doesn't even need the Heighten (or similar) tricks.
Your codpiece is a mimic.
