    Can the effects of Greater Malison stack (-8, -12, etc. to saving throw) as does Lower Resistance?

    I assume with magically resistant creatures (like dragons) that Lower Resistance must come before Greater Malison?

    1) No.

    2) That would be the wisest thing to do I think.

    Sidenote) Multiple dooms do stack though.

    GM doesn't stack.

    That the best way to kill a dragon.

    Tip:after lower resistance and greater malison cast finger of death to kill the big bad dragon.

    Greater Malison does not stack. I'm very sure! I tried it multiple times and checked my opponents savingthrows with the CLUA.
    As stated above, doom does. So if you have a Cleric/Mage, put Greater Malison with 2 Dooms in a Trigger-like spell et voila! The enemy is all yours.

    When you have a cleric-mage you can put doom in a sequencer and cast them ... with a chromatic orb perhaps ... :evil: ... that extends the effectivity of that spell to higher level enemies :D
