Quote from: Jim Profit;295811There's a saving throw for everything. A saving throw against breath attacks, poison, death spells, seeing your mother naked... There's even a saving throw to not die from the shock of being ressurected!

Well, to be honest, there are only about six different types of save, which each get used for all kinds of wierd-ass things (especially Save Vs. Petrification), and the System Shock roll for being revived really isn't technically a saving throw.

And Clerics being defensive? With spells like Insect Plague and Flame Strike, as well as Holy/Unholy Word? You don't want to piss off someone who has a direct hotline to Diety, nosirree. :)
