Deck of Wizzard or Priest Spells

Post by Korath »

I know they used to have deck of wizzard or priest spells back in the 2nd edition. Do they still make those for 3.5?

I have seen the deck of priest spells once, and it seemed a waste of money to me. Why would you want them? Easy of reference I suppose, but unless they are cheap, you can very easily make them yourself.

Just get the new spell compendium, unless you want a list of flashcards, in which case I suggest making them yourself.

Spell Compendium rocks by the way. :)

Paradigm Concepts made them for D20, Paizo had them here (currently unavailable):

I got all three sets really cheap on Ebay (one dollar each! I was the only bidder!), but I have to agree that index cards really are better, new spells come out all the time, and I like to keep favorites close to hand.
I only wish I had retired sooner!

There's only one wizzard that I know of (a Great one at that) and he can't cast any spells...

I never would spend money on them, but back in 2e, a friend had them, and they did come in somewhat handy. You just take the spells you've memorized, and pull them out of the deck of spells you know, and then you don't have to go flipping thru books for durations, ranges, etc. and in combat you can quickly see at a glance what you've got left. (after casting a spell, you put it back in the deck.)

But yeah, index cards would be fine...
