Alright. Can't figure why my dc is always lower by 1.
Those are feats that i have :
DC= 10 + 32 int mod with fox c. ( + 11 ), Epic spell focus necr. ( +3) , Spellcasting prodigy (+1), Archmage Arcana Spell Power ( +2)
blood component + bloodseeking spell give me + 3 on caster level. Combination of Archamage, Wizard, Blood magus and Arcane schoolar should give me charter of 32 caster level . So there should be + 4 dc epic bonus ( one for each 3th.caster level - 23, 26, 29 and 32 lev ) So math should be like this .
10+11+3+1+2+ 4 ( and lets take Finger of dead as example ) +7 = 38
Is that good math or I miss something ? My DC is always lower for 1
Dc problem ?

Re: Dc problem ?
Spell power doesn't increase DC. It increases caster level.

Re: Dc problem ?
Bloodseeking only triggers when an enemy is selected. So if you cast a wail of the banshee on the ground you won't get the bloodseeking bonus. You will get it if you have an enemy selected and target him with the same spell however.tribunal wrote: + bloodseeking spell give me + 3 on caster level.

Re: Dc problem ?
There is an issue with DCs that has been reported to the devs. As it was mentioned before Rasael already submited some changes that might fix it.
Reading the OPs post and the build he has, it should be the same problem, so lets wait for the next update

Re: Dc problem ?
Deathgrowl is right. Spell power adds to caster level and not directly to DC. So you should actually have a caster level of 34 with bloodseeking spell (32 without). I think your DCs are actually higher by 1 (-2 from what your calculations show because spell power doesn't add to DC directly).Deathgrowl wrote:Spell power doesn't increase DC. It increases caster level.
10+11+3+1+4+7=36
Now there could be a bug where blood magus gives full caster level instead of 9 so that would give an extra DC because the caster level would then be 35 giving a DC of 37 in this case. Or maybe you have practiced spellcaster which would also then be a caster level of 35 with a 37 DC. I'm not sure what the caster level bug is currently but maybe things will change when it is fixed.

Re: Dc problem ?
Yeah , got it all wrong from the start ... Help me to figure out some things and correct me when i get wrong...
Wizard 10 lev/ Archmage 10 lev and Blood Magus 10 lev - should have caster level 29 , right ?
With Blood Magus abilities that caster level is 32.
With arcana spellpower 3 it is 35 ?
With practiced spellcaster feat it is 37 or 39 ? It gives +2 or + 4 ?
Spellcasting prodigy gives +1 on DC ?

With Practicted Spellcaster it will be at 30 CL then you add all the spellpower feats and Blood Component + Bloodseeking.
Anyway, my wizard is missing 1 DC aswell and that is definetly a bug. He i supposed to have one more than he currently has.

They changed it, it seems.Duster47 wrote:10Apr2016 ~ 18:10 hours
- Other counterspell casterlevel issue resolved.
- Embrace the Wild, Protection from Alignment, Aura of Glory, Blessed Aim, now use BGTSCC casterlevel calculations.
- Blood Magus doesn't progress casterlevel at: levels 5 and 10.
- Experimental tweak to melee strikes and blows, to stop bard songs triggering.
- Added one more hair style to bg_hair_head2.hak - new one clips chest but some may want to use it.
- Changed Lore/Knowledge icons on Skill List for the ten new categories - from BG Art Team.
