Revision as of 18:26, 24 July 2009
I'd like to propose an alternative to Exped. Retreat, because I think the spell is kinda stupid in one specific way: it only effects Land Speed. All of the other spells that affect other movement types give you that movement type as part of their effect. I'd like to propose this modification: when casting Exped. Retreat, you can declare what movement type it's operating on, and it adds +30 to that movement type, if you have that movement type. Basically, the +movement spells are all biased towards people who have only one movement type. --t3knomanser 15:52, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
- I would propose a spell named Expeditious Swim that would be identical to Expeditious Retreat except that it would apply only to swim speeds. Usually movement spells are all separate spells.
- Branch to Branch, Druid/Ranger 1, grants brachiation and +10 movement
- Rapid Burrowing, Druid/Ranger 1, +20 burrow speed
- Burrow, Druid/Ranger 2, grants burrow speed of 30 (20 in light armor)
- Cloud Wings, Druid 2, +30 fly speed for 1 hour@CL
- Master Air, Druid 2, grant 90 fly for 1 rnd@CL
- Swim, Druid/Sorc-Wiz 2, grant swim 30
