    Life expectancy of clothing? (In game)

    This is an old story, but I'll just make a reminder. When a player fails a saving throw versus area spell, part of his magical stuff needs to make a save. However, ALL normal clothing is gone at that moment. Now the $1000 question: What part of clothing does not appear in any form of magical...

    No combat in a whole session

    Quite rare to go through a DD session without a single fight. However, I remember one time quite well still. I have been DMming a campaign for 2,5 years now for the same group. They are now around 22nd level, but at that time, they were somewhere around 15 or so. The adventure was the section...

    Miniatures Handbook-Who Needs It?

    And be careful with some feats too. Mageslayer, anyone? (Compare to the epic feat...)

    Feats for Monks...

    Try this: http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=48573&highlight=monk There are many good monk feats: (Combat expertise) + Karmic Strike (CW) + TWF + ITWF + Double attack (MiniHB) Defensive throw (CW) and get a trip if they miss. (Power attack) + Improved critical + Roundabout kick (CW)...

    What 5th-level spells should any Wizard prepare?

    Firebrand (From Magic of Faerun). If your opponents are not airborne, there really is no better blast spell :). Of course, Teleport and WoForce are pretty ok too.

    What is your favorite race to play as?

    Astral Deva. It just rocks. We play it via Savage Species advancement level-by-level. We removed the transform-to-large -thing and added +8 to dex during the 20 levels. Though I'm not even close to 20th yet. Anyway, the race is quite strong in the first 10 levels. Then the hp/skill loss starts...

    Foresight: Worst 9th Level Spell?

    The way I see it works, and how I DM it IMC is as follows: 1) Player says: " I'm going to open that door" And I go: "You feel no impending danger from the door, but there is strong danger behind the door" (Ie, no traps in door, nothing accidental is going to happen, like getting the door frame...

    Heavy Artillery: Psion vs. Wizard

    First of all, it is a Supernatural ability. Ie, no AoO, long range, no SR roll. It is not elemental damage, so resistances don't work against it. In fact, it is unlisted damage, so no protections work against it. It does not have a save either. If the caster succeeds in the RTA, he can hurt...

    Heavy Artillery: Psion vs. Wizard

    Uhh... hello. Don't know if I get my head cut off right way for sticking it into this :). I have to admit that I skipped pages 4-12, don't have too much extra time at work. So my idea could have already surfaced before. If so, I'm sorry for repeating it. I don't see the Psion as overpowered...

    Question: Warhulk mega hits + RoS:Knockback and Raging bullrush feats?

    Hello. I would like to clear few things about the following: In Races of Stone, two interesting feats appeared. Knockback and Raging bullrush (IIRC). Knockback gives free bullrush attempt whenever you hit an opponent while using powerattack. (Against that opponent, of course). Raging...

    any guidelines for Spell Resistance?

    Of course, casters can have the following to raise their SR rolls: -Feats (+4 max before epic) -Spell power from Archmage/Heirophant -Item with [enchantment] bonuses (max I give IMC is +2, as in robe of archmage) -Specific powers of PrC (+2 vs outsiders from Incantatrix) -Caster level +x items...

    Crafting wondrous items

    I think it was changed to 1.5x ... or lets say, it was written more clearly. As non-slotted items cost 2.0x to do, why would anyone put secondary abilities to slotted items for the same price? After all, non-slotted, separate items are much easier to sell and trade, and use too, as you don't...

    Two questions: Druid+Elemental form traits , Polys+inherent bonuses?

    Ok, thank you all for the insight. That part of the 'rules of polymorphing' was a good call. I possibly should read allthe 'Rules of the Game' -articles from WotC site. Maybe the Oaken resiliency -feat is useful after all to the druid player IMC. Or take a level of Warshaper. Hypersmurf has...

    Two questions: Druid+Elemental form traits , Polys+inherent bonuses?

    Hello. I have 2 questions that I would like the clear out for my campaign. 1) If a druid wildshapes to elemental form, does he get the traits of the elemental too (Immunity to criticals, flanking, poison, stunning ....). Wildshape says that the druid gets all ex, sp and su -abilities, but that...

    Ray spells - where are they?

    IIRC, the arcane reach ability of Archmage does not change the touch-portion of the spells, even if they are now RTA's. I'm not sure about complete text of the Reach Spell MM but I believe the spells still stay as touch, not ray spells. Depending on DM, he might or might not let the player use...
