    Encounter balancing for 2-3 players - DMG's Kobold Hall Adventure

    OK, I'll drop the number of kobolds down, thanks. And then I'll either drop the dragon and switch out to a dragon born or maybe make the dragon significantly weaker. Thanks.

    Encounter balancing for 2-3 players - DMG's Kobold Hall Adventure

    Hi, Anyone have tips for a new DM? I have two or three players depending on the day, and we're working on the Kobold Hall adventure in the 4.0 DMG. It's taking a long time, and we average 2 encounters per 6 hour gaming session. It just feels slow. Part of it is the players don't have their...

    Anyone have Ritual for Constructs Made Up

    A player in my games wants to make constructs, e.g. a tiny eyeball with legs. Any tips where to start?

    Halving Hitpoints

    I'm new to DMing and am having trouble managing a group of 2-3 players in the mini adventure in the DMG, Kobold Hall. Do you think I should have the HPs and also take out a creature or two?

    Polymorph (Monk/Troll Flurry and equipment) questions

    Oh, I forgot something - for this last situation to work, the monk would need to be carrying around a large sized kama, right? Because weapons don't resize. So, the most likely situation would be to attack with claw/claw/bite/rend or a flurry of blows. Unless the monk carried around a...

    Polymorph (Monk/Troll Flurry and equipment) questions

    They said no flurry + natural attacks. But, it's possible to attack twice (+6/+1) then claw/claw/bite/rend, right? This makes Polymorph extremely buff, does it not?

    Polymorph (Monk/Troll Flurry and equipment) questions

    If I understand right: an 8th level monk (BAB +6/+1) polymorphed into a troll could attack with a claw, a bite and 2 kama strikes. Or 2 claws, a bite, and a rend (if the claws hit). Or a flurry using monk weapons or unarmed attack damage (2d8). And magic equipment would resize, but not...

    Polymorph (Monk/Troll Flurry and equipment) questions

    Could a monk polymorphed into a troll use his claws & rend in a flurry? Or would it be a choice to do claws/bite/rend or an unarmed flurry at (for 8th level) 2d8? On a side note, when someone is polymorphed, what happens to their equipment? Does it grow to match their new size, or meld since...

    Touch attack for Evard's Black Tentacles?

    Wow, I see. So, have you kept the spell the same or adapted in light of these stats? Are you a math professor or what? Just curious.

    Touch attack for Evard's Black Tentacles?

    Good point. That makes it more manageable, the number difference isn't quite so large. But yeah, Dim. Door is necessary to have prepared. Question: Have any of you changed Evards, and if so, how?

    Touch attack for Evard's Black Tentacles?

    My party is 8-10th level (mine at 10th), so I guess we're at the peak of its usefulness/brokenness. About Freedom of Movement & Divine Power, they don't seem to help you if you're already caught in the grapple. Since they have a somatic component, you can't cast it right? Short of using a wand...

    Touch attack for Evard's Black Tentacles?

    Thanks a bunch. I'll pass this on to my DM. He'll be happy to have a way to defeat Evard's Godlike Tentacles, as he calls them.

    Touch attack for Evard's Black Tentacles?

    Why does it become not overpowered at high levels? The creatures are stronger?

    Touch attack for Evard's Black Tentacles?

    How do you justify it not being overpowered? I feel more than a bit biased, as it's my favorite spell. I keep ruining my DM's day in Return to the Temple of E. Evil. ;) It almost seems overpowered because (as we were doing) there's no touch attack, no SR, no save. It kills clerics (no dimension...

    Touch attack for Evard's Black Tentacles?

    Do Evard's Tentacles need a melee touch attack first? Or, do they skip that step and move directly to the opposed check. My DM think's Evard's is extremely overpowered. What do you all think? Sorry if this has been asked before, I don't have a search function. Thanks.

    Rokugan: Blood and Cherry Blossoms OOC

    Oh ok, after reading through more of the thread and seeing the characters, I totally agree. I'll enjoy reading the game though. Have fun. :D

    Rokugan: Blood and Cherry Blossoms OOC

    Interested Hi, I've never played a pbp game on Enworld, but I've played a couple on a different board. I'm interested in playing a samurai - which would be appropriate since it seems you're lacking a fighter. I'm new to Rokugan - is it a world within Oriental Adventures? I have the OA book, but...

    The Azure Order [3.5e]

    I emailed a character idea in for an arcane caster. I'll write some more soon, please reserve me a spot if you still got one! ;)

    Anybody know Japanese?

    Yuki no Yanagi. yuki = snow, no = adjectival modifier, yanagi = willow, per my electric dictionary. A weeping willow is shidare yanagi, fyi.

    In search of adventure

    Hmm, I'd thought about that. It looked tough to get into... I'll just have to take my time and read everything, I guess. Question: How do you make the character sheets with the scrolling window? I saw a link to a form (rtf, I think), but I didn't see any forms that scrolled up & down, like...
