    Mamma mia, there is already a lvl 8 Greater Planar Ally spell in the game! Looks like rubbish though (open the py and look if that sounds harsh) - can someone confirm if it works? I'll incorporate my version if so to save a spell number slot.

    EDIT: Take it all back, it works fine. Huh.

    2nd EDIT: Ok, the list seems to be finalised, check HERE if you want (previous page post #10). Travel is simply going to have to miss 2 spells I'm afraid, can't find anything appropriate.

    Interesting aside - Druids seem to get pretty much nothing at higher levels. O well.

    3rd EDIT: Mordenkainen's Dog isn't even in the game??? Dagnabit, that means a new proto...

    I remember using greater planar ally. The summoned creature was so large, it couldn't move, and blocked my character from moving. Had to reload.

    Yeah, I can see the 'Summon Elemental' spell doing that. Summon gargantuan things at your own risk.

    Just bumping this. Struggling a little with Planar Shift (plans to do it as long range Dimension Door foiled by fact that dimension door IS long range) and haven't done Mordenkainen's Hound yet.

    Q: How do you make a herd of cats go woof?
    A: Fireball the bastards.

    EDIT: I am leaning toward Endarire's Plane Shift for Travel 6. Fiddly but theoretically worth it.

    Ok, couldn't get Phase Door going as some sort of Dimension Door with unlimited (across a map) range like I wanted, so I introduced it as a long-range whole party Dimension Door effect. Not that I am getting anything like long range for its, errr, range, but that's the game playing up, I tells ya. So essentially it will move the entire party across the screen in the blink of an eye: enough range that you could sneak up on a group, stay out of their heartbeat range, and then have your Wiz 7 / Sor 7 / Travel 8 teleport the party into the middle of the baddies. Should add some spice to a few of the big encounters. Out of combat only.

    Can someone confirm if Mordenkainen's Faithful Hound is in the game, preferably someone with Rudy's mod installed? I thought it was, then I couldn't find it, now t's been reported as 'in' again...

    "Not in my game!" ss an acceptable response by the way, but obviously a positive sighting will also settle it.

    Yes, it is in the game, and when you cast it, the invisible hound appears.

    Thanks, but either ways good, I'm bundling this with Rudy's mod (if I didn't already make that clear. And contrary to what I previously said).

    The Detect Lies spell I believe is used by the orb of golden death, whether it actually works or not, no clue.
