    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 ECLs and drug use at WoTC

    Look at the ECLs for creatures now. WTF. Its beyond insane. Lets say our party start at level 5. Seems reasonable enough. I want to play a Fire Giant. Ok. So I start the game as a Lvl 1 Fighter Fire Giant..... cause Fire Giants are +4 ECL.... I still get all the stuff a Fire Giant does.... for...

    Beating the Dead Harmed Horse

    Anyone else notice that in NeverWinter Nights they gave Harm a Will save? Just thought it was funny when I saw it, though hardly unexpected. They can put it in a computer game that uses D&D as a basis, but they can't add the two lines it would take to errata the godawful thing (admittedly they...

    Epic Terror-The strongest creature in D&D

    Has anyone seen the Epic Level Playtest document? While it does look pretty neat, I have to say somethings make me want to cry for my mommy. Unfortunately its PDF, so you can't really cut and paste, but I'll just say anything that actually says: Attacks: 100 greatswords +71 melee Damage...

    This seems too powerful for the cost...

    Magic Quarterstaves- Double Weapons?

    This came up in a discussion I was having. A quarter staff can be used as a double weapon, but when making a magic weapon (or rolling one) how are they handled in this respect? Generally they are used as a single weapon, but with that possiblity does the staff have 2 "heads" that can be...

    ECL issues

    I've noticed that for many monster PCs they tend to be a bit too high in the ECL dept. Recently a player wanted to make a Gnoll (ECL +3) Barbarian, but he was also kicking around a dwarf/human barb/fighter. In the end the Gnoll had almost the same stats as an equal level dwarf (Attacks, hp...

    No more avatars?

    What happened t othe avatars? Am I the only one who can't see them or are they just gone? And yes I have the setting enabled. I guess in the long run I don't really care too much, but they were kinda cool.

    Does Caliban live?

    I'm an old vet of Noah's boards. Is Caliban still out there and alive? I hope so it was so useful to have someone who knew every book inside and out and could be looked to as an authority on rule issues. If you're out there man I'd love to know it. Yes its the same old Gromm for the record.
