    D&D 4E 4e Power Components

    Care to elaborate a bit about the area-part? Thank you very much for your kind words. As for, as you call it, the monsters residuum: Instead of orienting your calculations by the magic item value of the treasure parcels of a level you could also use the magic threshold as a guideline for the...

    D&D 4E 4e Power Components

    Nice to hear you like it. Some example encounters: Battlefield Control (Easy level 3 encounter for lvl5 PCs) 1x124.8 gp (lvl3 controller) + 6x60.8 gp (lvl1 skirmishers) Double Line (Hard level 18 encounter for lvl 15 PCs) 4x2.7k gp (lvl17 minions) + 3x6k gp (lvl 15 soldiers) + 2x7.6k gp...

    D&D 4E 4e Power Components

    In 3.X there was the idea of using monster parts to reduce or totally replace gp or XP costs in the creation of magic items. I wanted to give it a try for 4e, so the magic item shops could reopen and fill their shelves again with bottled eyeballs, canned organs, and twitching limbs. Outlined...

    The magic circle trap

    Also, PHB1's Eladrins and Elves are fey. Not sure where to find that item. Would an eladrin's fey step be able to bypass the circles barrier? Though it requires a move action to activate, teleportation is more like a translocation. You know, that's what I saw, when I tried to imagine a magic...

    The magic circle trap

    I just reread the categories-entry of the rituals chapter which does state under binding rituals, that they protect YOU from creatures or ensanare, etc. them. Does this mean -since the specific ritual does not explicitely change this general statement- that the ritual caster really is not affected?

    The magic circle trap

    The description of the ritual does not state an exception for the ritual caster or any characters assisting in the casting. So let us assume a party consisting of five lvl 5 characters all of them natural humanoids perform/assist in the ritual Magic Circle (natural). The ritual caster -a...

    Castle Smoulderthorn Part 2 (Playtest Update)

    As for the sorcerer, it was said that monsters will have some kind of 'monster class features' rather than class features. Thus, the flaming snake thing of the enemy sorcerer could be more akin to the mentioned snake theme than to a particular PC spell or class feature of a PC sorcerer.

    TWF Question

    Hast ja recht. I forgot that one. :blush: So it is only for very specialized fighters, right? Makes me think there should be something like a general XWP. Heard much about the exotic weapon master, seems I'll have to look it up to do a feat that does not restrict you to only one type of...

    TWF Question

    True, true. But still, I'd rather sheathe my +3 vorpal sword than dropping it and having it stolen from a bunch of sneaky goblins, while I attack something else. Not to mention their hobgoblin leader deciding to pick it up and use it against me. While QD works for all weapons, XWP works for...

    TWF Question

    Well, I edited the text several times. This seems to be a leftover from an earlier version. :\ As opposed to taking the quick draw feat and provoking attacks of opportunity using multiple weapons? ;)

    TWF Question

    Did I understand this right? If you have a bab of +2, the feats exotic weapon proficiency and two-weapon fighting, using e.g. the two-bladed sword, with the one blade as a one-handed weapon and the other blade as a light weapon, you have two attacks as if using two weapons of the said type...

    I like the feathered dragon-pic. Somehow I can really see it in a fight-to-the-death with a mean red wyrm. Could be a cool image for a half-dragon/half-griffon, too. Btw. my Aerlhûn ride flying sea creatures like prehistoric liopluradons or giant dire manta rays. Their more evil cousins the...

    ML3's FREE Home Brew Monster Art

    Sounds quite cool. Somehow I get an image of a Kathaeron population dwelling in a place that is a mountainous tree, which is both a complete ecosystem of its own and the dungeon for an primeval entity. Would you care to EMAIL ME some of the material? What are the stats of the Drowdemon and what...

    ml3 - thank you so much for doing this pic. You did a great job and I love the style of the chlothes you gave the Elder Lizard. This is just what I was thinking of: A gigantic, threatening creature taking its pet cave-man for a walk. Thank you again and keep up the outrageously good art. Kudos...
