    18th lvl Arcane Trickster. Now What?

    Hey gang. My Arcane Trickster just hit 18th lvl ((Rog3/Wiz[Ill]5/ArT10). In our group he is the only Rogue, so his infiltration skills are very important. He was one of two Arcane casters (the other was a Sorcerer), but the other one died and the player made a new character that is some sort...

    [4e] Help Making Pre-gens

    So. I want to run a 4e demo game for my buddies. I plan to just do a one-evening game, and will probably run the kobold dungeon-crawl in the DMG. What I'm looking for is suggestions for pre-gen class/race combos. My idea was to go with basic D&D stereotypes. I'm going to have a standard...

    Recommned a Master of Magic - like game

    So, I've been playing WoW pretty exclusively for the past two years. Now that I have a couple characters up to level 60, about the only time I play is with my regular Monday night group. What this means is that I'm looking for a new game, and I'm very much out of the loop as to what has gone...

    The State of PCGen

    I gave up on PCGen quite some time ago (around the 5.9 RC version). It seemed that no matter what version I used the characters that it generated always had some, fairly significant, error in them. That, on top of the horrid interface, and the general slowness of Java made me throw in the...

    Signatures Getting Too Big?!

    I may be alone in this, but seems to me that people's signatures are getting bigger and bigger. I looked at the forum rules and didn't see any limits or guidelines for signatures. So I would like to take this opportunity to ask for some consensus on this issue. Obviously, I prefer sigs to be...

    The Current State of "Simple d20"?

    I'm just wondering if there is anything new in the area of a simplified d20 game system. What I am looking for is a system that would let me use the majority of existing d20 stuff that is out there (scenarios, monsters, feats, etc) while being much more simplified and streamlined than D&D 3.5...

    Will Arcane Sight let you see Invisible Things?

    Will Arcane Sight allow you to see a magically invisible creature? For example: •A sorceror that has cast the Invisibility spell on herself. (I would assume yes) •A rogue with a Ring of Invisibility. (I would assume yes) •A creature that has Invisibility as a Spell-like power. (I would assume...

    Monks vs Adamantine DR

    We have a situation in our group. The players are a pretty well rounded group of 5, 13th level characters (Fighter, Hospitaller, Sorceror, Shadowdancer, Monk) who are trying to defeat two Iron Golems. They realized that they were not having much luck getting past the golem's 15/adamantium...

    Targetting Area Spells

    I must confess that my group and I have been playing 3.x since it came out, but we are still hazy on how you target Area of Effect spells (fireball, darkness, flamestrike, etc). In our games (as is common in most games, I would assume), the players of spellcasters spend a lot of time trying to...

    Psionic Invisibility

    Maybe I'm just blind, but I cannot find any sort of psionic invisibility power in the Expanded Psionics Handbook... I found the Camoflage power, which gives +10 to hide skill checks, but nothing like invisibility. Can anyone help me out?

    Can a wand be a club?

    I was playing around with the new version of PCGen the other day and was making a magic club for a Druid character. To my suprise, the custom weapon construction utility offered 50 charge spells (like a wand) as an option that you could put on any weapon. "Gee", I thought to myself, "it would...

    Druid w/Str 10 taking Power Attack?!

    Let's say that you have a Druid with a Strength of 10. Said Druid would like to take the Power Attack feat for use while Wild Shaped. Can he take the feat, with the understanding that he will only be able to use it when Wild Shaped into a creature that meets the requirement for the feat?

    D&D playing nerd + supermodel = General Electric

    So I was watching The West Wing on my TiVo last night and and as I was fastforwarding through a commercial block (as usual) I got a brief glimpse of a 3e player's handbook filling my TV screen for a fraction of a second. What the....! I hit play, rewound to the beginning of the commercial...

    How to get into a Mordenkainen's Magnificent Mansion

    The majority of our PCs just made it to 13th level, which means that the two Wizards can now cast Mordenkainen's Magnificent Mansion. How difficult is it for someone to enter one by force. Does it just take a Scry and a Planeshift or does it need a Gate? Edited for a typo...

    What Race Are You Currently Playing

    I'm just curious to see what races people are playing these days. If you are playing more than one PC at the moment, just choose the one you like best.

    Divine Spells with Arcane Material Component?

    As a longtime lurker on this board, I have never seen this issue brought up, and it has kind of thrown me for a loop. I have a player who is running a Cleric of Wee Jas. She has taken the Magic Domain and has noted that she gets Identify as a 2nd level spell. From the SRD... Upon reading...

    NWN - Crates and Barrells (Scrounging and Thieving)

    I'm about 2/3 of the way through the solo game and having a pretty good time. Most of the changes that they have made to the 3e ruleset I find to be pretty acceptable, and understandable. Combat and gameplay are pretty fun and interesting. But I have one major gripe... What I can't stand is...

    [PCGEN] Psionics Questions

    I have been running into a few frustrations with making psionic characters in PCGEN. Since I cannot abide by the yahoo groups BBS feature I'm going to ask a couple question here out of sheer frustration... The first is that I cannot find a charcter sheet that will show how many psionic power...
