True Reincarnation

There appears to be an error here. It says you can only True Reincarnate twice per character, but then how would getting "Completionist" (See https://ddowiki.com/page/Past_Life_Feats ) be possible at all? I think it SHOULD read "you can only gain the additional build points for two True Reincarnations per character, Further True Reincarnations will not increase your build point total." 76.191.199.82 21:18, July 20, 2010 (EDT)

Reincarnation levels

So, silly me, jumped on the D&D Store yesterday with a 3rd level character hoping to True Reincarnate because I completely boffed him on character creation when I made him a couple years ago. Then, I notice that I only have access to Lesser Heart of Wood and +1. Should we maybe put in a list of WHAT LEVEL is needed to obtain each tier of reincarnation? I'm sure it would really help some people. ShadowDragoonFTW 04:54, June 20, 2011 (EDT)

Spellbook

One section says that upon TR, your spellbook is reset. Yet the "What reincarnation affects" chart shows that for caster reincarnations, the spellbook is NOT reset. Can I get some clarification/have the discrepancy fixed?

I think the chart is actually pretty clear: True Reincarnation (the last entrance on the chart) wipe your spellbook. Lesser and Greater reincarnation leaves your spellbook untouched. However, Sorcerers, Favored Souls and Bards do not possess spellbooks, and need to "relearn" their spells when they relevel. The section right over the chart is specific about TR, and so, says that your spellbook is wiped. Nibelung (Contributions • Message) 21:26, May 19, 2012 (EDT)

Free reincarnation with u14

I was surprised that there's no mention at all of the free reincarnation added with u14.

Because that one was listed on the Release notes. It's not a permanent effect, only a bonus for already-existing characters when U14 hit live. Nibelung (Contributions • Message) 17:11, August 12, 2012 (EDT)

leveling after reincarnation

Is it possible to exit the reincarnation process before reapplying all your levels? For example, I am lvl 19 and want to go back to 18, as well as relearning my sorc spells. ;>jamvaru (Contribs • Message • Email) 13:49, September 3, 2016 (EDT)

• With a lesser reincarnation, you must level back to the you were when you started. — Zav (T·C) 14:04, September 3, 2016 (EDT)

appearance

Is your appearance static or can it be changed? Is the appearance preserved or would you need to reapply your desired appearance all over again? ;>jamvaru (Contribs • Message • Email) 13:49, September 3, 2016 (EDT)

• Your appearance is not kept. You will need to set it just like with character creation. — Zav (T·C) 14:03, September 3, 2016 (EDT)

free hearts of wood

I received a free heart of wood, lesser, due to my patron status, having bought something, i think. I get one for each new character. Is this something I get again if I use it? Will I get another one if I do a Heroic or other True Reincarnation? ;>jamvaru (Contribs • Message • Email) 13:49, September 3, 2016 (EDT)

• You will not receive another one. — Zav (T·C) 14:04, September 3, 2016 (EDT)

Choice of Heroic Past Life Feat

When I look at that diagram for Heroic True Reincarnation, I see that you have a choice for a Heroic Past Life, but when I looked at the Heroic Past Life page, it can only be from a dominating class. Can you actually choose your Heroic Past Life or not?

Wow, that is a tragically flawed graphic (also, the "1" in "Level 1" is missing from the bottom center ballon). No, you cannot. You get the past life feat based on your dominant class, which is determined by a simple, fixed formula. (Stacks a max of 3 times, then no benefit.) Gotta address that, thx, and apologies for the typo. C-Hound (Contribs • Message • Email) 17:03, May 31, 2017 (EDT)

Lesser Reincarnation and Spellbooks

"On Lesser/Epic Reincarnation Wizards and Artificers will keep their spell books. They cannot select new/different spells when levelling up."

I recently lesser re-incarnated a wizard. I kept my existing spell book, and at each wizard level was able to choose additional spells as if I were levelling normally. ⇒ Nom (Contribs • Message • Email) 06:35, February 2, 2019 (EST)
