The DP and its bonuses happen *after* all other level up actions.

When may DP be spent? Game Session uses are apparent, but the other categories could be clarified. --Randy (Talk) 18:42, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

At any point except in the middle of a level up, really. Before and after level up, fine, but not during. And you don't gain the new DP until after the level up finishes (and is on the wiki). --Mqs 18:45, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
I'm 1,000xp away from leveling up and gain another DP, bringing my total to five. Can I spent them right then for a feat or do PCs have to wait until the character gains their next level? --Randy (Talk) 18:47, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
If you gain the DP, you can spend it immediately. Mid session even. --Mqs 18:48, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

9 DP buys you 9 HP directly. 9 DP buys you three copies of Toughness (first costs 2, then 3, then 4), at 3 HP each, for 9 HP.

DP cost for domain granted ability?

I'm considering taking Arcane Disciple again and gaining the Repose domain from Sandstorm (very appropriate for Wee Jas) and would like to have the granted power with it. What would that cost in DP? --Randy (Talk) 19:12, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

This is not something I currently included in my chart for available purchases. I'll have to consider such a thing. However, most domain powers are strong (War, for example, grants proficiency and focus, which would be a minimum of 6 points.) Repose's granted power (which, BTW, you never asked about that domain. Spells are limited to PHB, SpC, PHB2. Domains are like that... As it is, it's allowed though the 7th level spell is not from those sources) is the same as the death domain. It's fairly potent. By second level, it's "kill one commoner untraceably once per day". The cost in DP would be in excess of 5, for sure. --Mqs 21:01, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
