After my first read through the basic book set, two things became somewhat apparent: 1. As you go up in level, it looks like vs. AC attacks become quickly useless. AC scales at a per level basis for monsters, and to hit only scales at level/2. So by 30th level, you need to come up with an extra...

Okay, I'm running a campaign with a mostly new group of players. We did a little mock combat last week, so people could make a couple adjustments to their characters if things didn't work out right for them. One of my players is doing a grappling monk (so has Improved Grapple), and has Earth's...
