Hello all,

I was just wondering, for spells like the cure series, the animal enchancment spells, and other buffs can i take a full round and cast it on everyone around me?

Thanks in advance.:smallsmile:

Nope, sorry.

If you do want to be able to use one casting of that spell on multiple people, look into the War Weaver prestige class.

Thanks,

Wish the rules were clearer on stuff like this.

Spells that can be cast like this will tell you. Teleport (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/teleport.htm) can, for example, be cast on multiple creatures (1 creature per 3 caster levels).
The cure series definitely only affects one creature per casting.

The only other way I can think to do this would be with Reach Spell+Chain Spell metamagic. The downside is doing that adds +5 spell levels worth of metamagic, so it's probably only worth doing if you're dual progressing arcane levels for Arcane Reach (from Archmage) or a metamagic specialist like an Incantatrix.

Hi

The "Cure....Mass" series work on multiple targets. ('Mass' typically adds 4 levels to spell).

PS Eldritch Disciple is one of the best healing PrC's. Allows you to use Turn attempt to convert Eldritch into a Healing Blast. If you can shape your Eldritch with either Eldritch Chain or Cone, you heal multiple targets with each Turn attempt.

Take this example of cleric with cha 14 & Extra Turning & Practiced Spellcaster (Warlock) feats.

CLr 3 Warlock 2 Eldritch Disciple 4

Can use Turn attempt 9/day to heal 5D6 damage, 1 extra target healed for 1/2 amount. (2 extra at 10th lvl).

I generally prefer to use the remaining time of divine power with eldrich glaive. Pretty much healed everyone to full health.

I'm not sure that they don't work on multiple targets. The spell's target is ' Creature touched', but other spells indicate they only work on a single target.

There are other spells that say "creatures touched". For example, water breathing.

I don't know where one would get the impression that "creature" could mean more than one target, given that creature is a singular noun.
