    Is this sorceror legal and viable

    "My skills would be Concentration (6 pts at 1st. . ." You can't have more than [level+3] ranks in a skill, so you could not have 6 ranks in Concentration at first level.

    Fighting a dragon (3.0)

    "Once more, please could you put a spoiler warning in the thread title? edit your original post to do that. Please?" Actually, yesterday I deleted all of the information our party has learned regarding the plot for the module.

    Fighting a dragon (3.0)

    "Have everyone remove their goggles just before combat. If your mage is worried about failing the first Fort save, stick him with a dagger to suck up some of the temp hit points. You shouldn't have to worry about exploding once the fight starts, because you're liable to get hurt faster than you...

    Fighting a dragon (3.0)

    "The bigger question is, what plans are YOU making? If that dragon is flying, stoneskinned, hasted, displaced, improved invisible, with Protection from Good and a few elemental protection spells up, how exactly are you going to stop it from just strafing you to death with hit-n-run attacks? As...

    Fighting a dragon (3.0)

    "- Some spells that will help you: Freedom of Movement (you don't want to be grappled by a dragon, do you?), Protection from Elements (for fire), Stoneskin (It will decrease the damage from the Dragon a little), everything that increases your AC. Be prepared to receive a targeted dispel magic...

    Fighting a dragon (3.0)

    "What are the ramifications of fighting on the positive material plane? Will there be high healing rates for everyone? " The Positive Energy Plane provides everyone with fast healing of five hit points per round. This healing even adds to your maximum hit points, but, if you go over your...

    Fighting a dragon (3.0)

    Thanks for the suggestions. Just a couple of things to note: "1) Always be patient. You can die any day but there are probably only one or two good ways to fight any given Wyrm. Have the rogue scout well with etheralness and find a way to get suprise. Be willing to wait." Etherealness and...

    Fighting a dragon (3.0)

    The question is, what are some good tactics to use in defeating a an ancient or older dragon? I don't want spoilers from Bastion of Broken Souls, just some strategies.

    Fighting a dragon (3.0)

    There is more to fear than fear itself, of this I can attest. I find myself pondering my own mortality as I face the end of the trail on which fate had set me long ago. The wise man knows that no matter how strong he is, there is always someone, or some thing, stronger. Therefore, as powerful as...

    Starting gold at higher levels

    Can anyone with the DMG tell me how much gold a level 18 character starts with? Thanks

    D&D 3E/3.5 [3.5] They didn't fix SR

    SR "The spellcaster has plenty of control over his affect on a creature's SR....he takes a specific feat, casts a spell that is unaffected by SR or chooses a higher level spell." Discounting non-core material, there are two feats that will allow a caster to increase the possibility of...

    D&D 3E/3.5 [3.5] Things I wish they would have fixed

    Spell resistance I would like to have seen a spell that allows arcane casters to give themselves Spell Resistance, and perhaps a chain of feats that allow casters to increase their ability to defeat SR. There is spell penetration and greater spell penetration, but I have been told that these...

    How big is the Terrasque?

    Thank you Thanks Sejs. I must be going blind, because I did not see the description.

    How big is the Terrasque?

    Anyone know how tall or long the Terrasque is? I'm not asking for the facing, just the height and width and length.

    Please rate Energy Substitution

    Firstly, there is no comparison between your "Supreme Spell" example and Energy Substitution. Please, don't try to defend your viewpoint by introducing irrelevent arguments. I am not talking about introducing house rules that would provide me an unimpeded advantage. I'm merely defending the...

    Please rate Energy Substitution

    I don't understand why people refer to energy Substitution (sonic) as being cheesy. It offers a spell caster the ability to use the damage spells in his/her arsenal an intelligent means of doing damage to a wider array of creatures. My 15th level wizard just took the feat and chose sonic as the...

    Stacking Transmutations

    Incognito, Which spell do you consider to be broken? Is polymorph self broken? If you think so, please explain why. If you believe Tensor's transformation is broken, also please explain why. You seem to think that the combination of the two spells is broken, but again, I would ask why? I'm...

    Stacking Transmutations

    Antikinesis Actually, my point about cat's grace and bull's strength stacking was supposed to be directed to Incognito, who, in his post, questioned whether Transmutation spells stacked. My bust in not addressing that question to him. Thank you though for seeing that the bonuses from the...

    Stacking Transmutations

    "The spell is being cast on a wizard that currently resembles a troll, not a troll. " Absolutely wrong. A character who polymorphs into a troll is a troll for the duration of the spell, not someone who merely resembles a troll. There is nothing wrong with the way the character wants to use...

    Thanks, guys, you've ruined Haste for the rest of us.

    Hasty decision I am in the camp that does not believe that haste needs to be changed. Interestingly, I read the first few pages of the post, where a number of people chided those who don't like the change coming in 3.5, by telling them that the DM does not have to accept the change and could...
