    A Variant Sorcerer With Personalized Flavor

    I like it. I think spell swap and extra spells known will be hard to pass up for prestige class benefits. Of course the extra spells known (from any spell list!) is quite a boost but it's probably needed to make the class as attractive as a prestice class. Some random thoughts: The skill-list...

    A Variant Paladin With No Dead Levels And Flavorful Abilities!

    I think this looks great, a real improvement, every level has something to look forward to. Power-wise it's about the same. Divine grace is weaker (+1 at 3rd to +5 at 19th) than in the PHB (Cha 20 is not outrageous at mid levels), especially at low levels, but the extra smite-effects give...

    swordsage

    As gabrion said, it seems like you describe a situation where the character was able to use just about every single ability (4/5 maneuvers and 2 stances), so he'd better seem powerful considering he'd be much less impressive during the following rounds. By the way - I count 3 feats (spiked...

    Sorcerer specialization

    Hi, I'm considering allowing sorcerers to specialize in a school of magic like wizards only different. I would like to know if you think this is unbalanced in some way (too good, too weak, too whatever) compared with a standard sorcerer. Sorcerous specialization At first level, you choose one...

    Summon Monster I-IX Is it worth it?

    Ah, finally something I know :D The direct translation of "Hva' fanden? Får vi en orkan?" is "What the devil? Get we a hurricane?" "Fanden" (and similar words like kraften, pokker, satan, ...) is not really taken literally anymore, mostly used to emphasize Btw, that is a strange Danish quote...

    Summon Monster I-IX Is it worth it?

    Well, that's my impression at lowish levels :-) It seems to me that 1d3 augmented dire badgers, hippogriffs or black bears (that's a single 3rd level spell) are often about as effective as a 6th level fighter (6th is a good level for fighters). Sure, they are softer and have lower attack bonus...

    Summon Monster I-IX Is it worth it?

    Can those cards be downloaded somewhere or could I get you to email them to me (jenscl(at)hotmail.com)? I have been converting some plain SNA-cards (thanks, Infinity!) to augmented SNA but now when my druid is approaching 9th level I'm looking for an easy way to get cards for SNA with Augment...

    What DO you DO for... Paladins?

    "arms and armour that increase in potential as the Paladin levels"... I don't have Weapons of Legacy but this makes me think of the "Ancestral Relic" feat in Book of Exalted Deeds. It basically allows the character to build a magical item of a value no greater than half suggested PC wealth...

    What DO you DO for... Paladins?

    Thanks greeen slime, consider that remove affliction yoinked <sounds of copy+paste> :D ... why is it significant to turn at -2 rather than +3? To me, the main trouble with the paladin is the "special mount" feature since it is so often useless (campaign dependant). Do any of you have ideas for...

    Help me choose spells for my sorcerer.

    Hi Thanee, If you were to drop another school (3.5 specialization), which would it be? To me, it seems like the trick is to find two schools whee you only want/need low-level spells, and the problem is that most schools have very attractive high-level spells. For example, I think even a...

    Spending Experience Points to Buy Feats

    While I think that 6 feats sounds like a lot for 1 CR, it would be easy to implement as a pseudo-class which gives *nothing* except 6 feats (not even higher max skill ranks). A refinement could then be to let each of the 6 feats be convertible into various other stuff (skill points, hit points...

    new sorc spell list?

    This sounds interesting, have you changed the sorcerer in any other ways?

    House Rules for Down Time Between Adventures

    Your system seems reasonable and fairly simple as it should be. I like it. However I think you may miss out by saying that While I don't think it's interesting to keep detailed track of expenses, I think broad groups of living expenses (say, scavenging, simple, comfortable, wealthy, extravagant)...

    Help on Bard Build - It's a matter of pride, folks.

    Hello. I have "almost never" played a bard and that was back in 2e, so I can't be said to be experienced. But I still I have some suggestions :) The 4 in B just hurts too much so this is my syggestion on how to use such good stats (it may have been offered before) : Human (feat and SPs which...
