bump!

Currently live in West Brookfield MA and am working in Putnam CT. Been playing D&D since 1978 and am seeking an active group of gamers to game with. I'll happily commute up to an hour for a good game. D&D is my game of choice but I also play Shadowrun, Call of Cthulu, D20 Modern and various...

I agree that a counter disarm would indeed be permissible.

Ok, I just want to smoke test this ruling before it comes up in game. I am confident in my ruling, but want to see if anyone disagrees, or see if there is some obscure ruling that I am unaware of. In the SRD it states that a disarm attempt provokes an AoO and in order to disarm "The character...

Ahhhh! I knew I saw it someplace. Thanks all.

That could be it. Though that supports my thoughts involving the grapple scenario. In both cases 2+ combatants are in the same square. So why wouldn't it be the same rule. I need to find where the grapple specific rule is written up. I have searched the PHB and the FAQ and still can't find it. I...

Re: Re: Attacking a grappler Where is this written up?

IIRC, when attacking a grappled combatant there is a 50% chance of hitting the other grappler. This was challanged the other day in game and I can't seem to find, or recall, where I read this. Somebody please set me straight on where it is or if I am even correct.

To an extent I agree. Several months ago I had to make a 6th level character for a pick up game. On a side note we have several pick up games that we play when we are missing players and can't play our primary campaign. So this character would only be played once in a while. That being said...

I think that I am a mix. I do rules lawyer, but I generally only speak up about a rule when I see it being mangled badly. Especially if the power gamers are doing some creative reading. I try not to argue with the DM if we disagree. I'll present my case and leave it at that. I'll also cite the...

Not only is hide an odd requirement, but it's not even a class skill once you take the PrC!!! Wtf? :confused:

The Shades darkvision is the same as darkvision itself. Which does not work in a darkness spell.

Thanks for the assistance. :)

I know this has been covered, but can't perform a search even though I am logged in. So here goes again. My question involves calculating critical damage with a spirited charge. A spirted charge does x2 with a melee weapon and x3 with a lance. I seem to recall that the formula is that you...

Yes.

More I should add that the main arguments for the proponents of the character level translation was that if it was just bad wording, why wasn't it in the errata? While I agree that it is indeed class/caster level it should have been in the errata.

I was of the opinion that in all class ability and spell descriptions class level was implied. The wording of magic missile: "For every two levels of experience past 1st, the character gains an additional missile. " raised some controversy at a game this weekend. We ruled that it was indeed...

Why ready? If you are in position to threaten him, you might as well just attack with a full round action. Then take the AoO when he starts casting.

Can you ready an action as a partial action? Bok is hasted, he runs across the room and attacks and subsequently kills the orc. For his haste granted partial action can he ready a partial charge. (Or any other partial action) The PHB lists readying as a standard action. A partial action is a...

IIRC for epic levels BAB increases by 1 every odd level. Saves increase by 1 every even level. (I may have odd/even backwards, don't have the book in front of me.) Edit: Ok so it's not called BAB, but you get the idea.
