Hi there, I recently moved to Saskatoon and am looking for a D&D game to join. I'd prefer 3.5e, but would be happy to play in 3e. I'd also prefer a group of more mature gamers (low/mid 20's and up; I'm 26 myself), and a pre-built setting (Forgotten Realms, Dragonlance, even Eberron). But...

I recall reading a feat once upon a time that allowed a spellcaster to reduce the casting time of all of their Summon Monster type spells to 1 action, instead of the regular full round. The problem is that I cannot remember, for the life of me, what the feat is called nor where I read it. Does...

Hi there, I've a quick question that I suspect I already know the answer to, but I just want to get other opinions on. If a spell is shapable does its area of effect need to be contiguous? If not, then if one of the disjoint areas of the spell has a dispell cast upon it does that dispell affect...

Hi all, So, my transmuter (opposed necromancy & enchantment) has just reached level 13 -- thus for the first time in my gaming history I've reached level 7 spells. So, I've two spells to add to my characters spellbook, but looking through the list of spells I'm just torn as to what to pick...

Good afternoon everyone, So, I've been looking through the XPH here; specifically at the metamind PrC. I'm curious about other people's opinions/experience with this class. I'm not actually convinced that the PrC is worth it for a psion. Consider a comparison between an L20 psion and an...

... a version of stoneskin that didn't have the costly material component, and was delivered by a close ranged ranged touch (ie: ray). Alternately, same delivery method as above but with a lowered material component cost (say 50gp). As a further alternate, same delivery method as above but...

Hello all, So, I've been playing 3.0 & 3.5 for a long while now -- pretty much since its release. There's something that I've noticed in all the games that I've been playing in, and I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this in their games. Ever since the introduction of the sorcerer...

Hi all, I've heard mention of these two feats numerous times, but I have no clue what book they're in. Could someone enlighten me? Thanks, Eraslin

Hello there, I've been looking at the Wilder class in the Expanded Psionics Handbook, and I'm having trouble trying to visualize a viable build for one. Specifically, which powers would make good ones. Maybe I'm just used to the flexibility of a wizard (my most often played class), but I feel...

Hello all, I was just looking at the spell "Mordenkainen's Magnificent Mansion" and noticed that it "conjures up an extradimensional dwelling". So.... one can't bring a bag of holding into the mansion, can we? A rather huge pain in the butt considering that most every 13th level character has...

Hi all, I'm presently playing a wizard who's recently aquired Minor Globe of Invulnerability. Now, the way that I read the spell and the way that I've seen the spell used (both in pen & paper, and in computer games) differ. The way I've always seen the spell used, is that once cast it...

Hi all, I'm trying to figure out how to go about pricing a metamagic rod of Heighten Spell. Specifically, I'm looking to price: a) A rod that will heighten level 0 through 3 spells to level 4. b) A rod that will heighten level 0 through 4 spells to level 5. Both would function the standard...

Greetings all, I come seeking advice on what spell level to place a spell that would grant the caster a +20 bonus to a chosen crafting skill for a duration of 1 minute per caster level. The primary purpose of the spell will be to to be used in conjunction with the fabricate spell. Thanks for...

Hi all, I come seeking advice. I'm trying to make up an area effect version of the reduce spell, and I'm not sure at what level to put it. I'm inclined to think level 2 or level 3 (likely 3), but I can't decide. Here's the spell, as I am visualizing it; note that this is for 3e, not 3.5e. AE...

Greetings all, I've a quick question about psions and the bonus power points table. This is probably a stupid question, but I'll ask it anyways. Does an increase to your primary stat retroactively increase your bonus power points? For example, a 1st level Egoist/6th level fighter with a...

Greetings all, I'm trying to find programs/tools for PalmOS to make my gaming life a tad easier. Specifically, I'm looking for a good die roller and a good D&D 3e character sheet/manager. Ideally, I'd like the character manager to have a facility for managing a spellbook and spells...

Hi all, I'm trying to come up with a new line of single-target damage spells for the transmutation school. Here's what I've come up with . I'm pretty comfortable with the damage levels for the level 1 through level 3 versions of the spell, but I'm unsure on the damages for the level 4 and 5...

Greetings all, I'm trying to determine whether the chain spell feat from T&B can be used on the magic missile spell. I'm thinking that it can, but the chained magic missile cannot have it's missiles split amongst multiple primary targets. That is, for the chained magic missile all N of the...

Greetings, I'm in a game at this very moment, and we're trying to figure out how one would go about casting a spell with a verbal component while underwater -- without the use of metamagic. Our first guess was to utilize the water breathing spell, but said spell only confers the ability to...

... that a prestige class does not count towards determining if your character has a multiclass xp penalty? Thanks, Eraslin
