If your players are so bad and annoying, you may just want to not game locally. No gaming is usually better than bad gaming. What exactly do they do to get under your skin?

Yeah I looked at Grease when it was released in AP as it was one of my favorite 3.5 spells and said to myself, "So if you put this in, say, a corridor where the enemy has to pass through it and you miss...couldn't you slide them back to where they just started and they have to enter again?"...

Hey guys, just a quick question. Does the extra fire damage from Surging Flame stack with itself? For instance, if I hit something with fire resistance with a fire power, then action point to do it again, then on my next turn do it again, does my last fire spell do damage +10 or +5?

Wow I guess my group played that wrong for years then. Even when 4th ed. hit, we assumed that allies still granted cover. It kinda sucked for the fighter because once I swarmed him with minions, the brutes just moves right on past into the squishies.

In my experience as a ret avenger, you really don't want to shift much. When I was swarmed around my oath target, I'd use a walk instead of shift to provoke OA's from all around me to rack up higher damage on the main target. I took strange paths to get to my oath target to provoke as much as...

Censure of Retribution says when an enemy other than your oath of enmity target hits you, you cumulatively add your Int mod to damage vs. your oath of enmity target until the end of your next turn. If I do not currently have an oath of enmity target, does this bonus damage accumulate? Is it...

I don't think anyone's mentioned a dragon's Frightful Presence ability. Likely chance to stun everyone in 10 squares, move to wherever you want, action point to claw/claw/bite. Oh, it's my turn again? Breathe or claw/claw/bite, action point, claw/claw/bite again. The Adult White Dragon could...

I ran this adventure Saturday and really hated it. I'm finding all the free material WOTC gives out is pretty terrible, which is why I don't play Living Forgotten Realms anymore. The main reason I DM'd this was for the free minis for myself and my people, and there were 2 tables running at our...

IMO, Halflings and Drow make really good wild sorcerers, mostly because of their stat bonuses. As for which to pick between the two, I'd lean towards Drow for Darkfire if you're going to focus on offense and Halfling for Second Chance if you want to be more durable, though Cloud of Darkness...

This reminds me a lot of when I played 2nd ed and always had to ask if any of the skin from the giants we had just slain was suitable to be made into a Girdle of Giant Strength. The way I've done it in my game is that I convert parcel gold in encounter with weird or magical creatures that...

Yes sir, that DMG sidebar is exactly what I was thinking of. I was digging in the DMG 2 for it, but it was right there in part I. Thanks so much!

Hey guys, I was hoping you could help me out. I haven't played 3.5 in a long while, but I'm about to join a campaign and I was looking for a Summoner Variant I saw a long time ago but can't find it again. The gist of it was that instead of summoning a random monster, you could choose a...

It's my understanding that you get +2 for each trigger of your pact boon, such that 2 enemies=+4 to a d20 roll.

I have to concede this point and agree with you here. RAW you are able to attack a square, and you are given an additional attack roll that you can use for Split the Tree if it's higher. I forgot all about this, that's my fault. Thanks for the catch.

It's not about being punitive, it's about playing by the rules. If you'd like to houserule that he can use it without two viable targets, then that's your option, and one of the great things about D&D. All that I'm saying is that RAW you'd have to have a second target.

Honestly, I don't see anything unbalanced about the Ranger choosing to attack only one target and not getting the second attack roll for Split the Tree, but RAW, he'd have to have a second target to use the ability and doesn't have the option to choose only one target.

I've allowed a Ranger to use an ally as a target for the two creatures stipulation. I don't think I'd allow them to use it if there was only one enemy and they chose not to shoot an ally as well.

I think this comes down to the semantics of the Sacrifice to Caiphon Feat. It says "When you attack with an encounter power..." which I think is the key to your question. What exactly is an attack? Do you have to roll a dice to have 'attacked?' The ability itself is a Warlock Attack 3, so is...

What I'm ruling is that the target's he's already chosen that he is range of still apply and that no new targets can be assigned, as he's moved past the "Choose Targets" step of Attacking. So even if he's moved into his area of effect, he didn't assign himself as a target when he had the chance...

Like Smurf said, I don't believe there is any such skill with an Effect dependent on a Hit.
