    D&D 3.0: Good Choices for Polymorph Self?

    I'm not very firm with Ploymorph effects in general. What are good choices for a pixie Druid 7 with access to Polymorph Self (CL8), using only PHB, MM, DMG 3.0? BTW, in this campaign, all casters have Natural Spell.

    Prestige Class Advice for Fighter/Cleric

    Tonight, I'm starting with a new character in the Forgotten Realms. Probably at 3rd level, 32pt-buy. Allowed sources are PHB, DMG, PGTF, Complete Series. I'm planning on a fighter/cleric type, either human or dwarf. Spiked Chain + Improved Trip. Never played or created one. Any advice for good...

    According to the PHB, page 84, a Summon Monster (casting time is one full round) spell may be quickened*, and it becomes a free action to cast. Is this correct? What components does a quickened spell have/not have? Somatic? Verbal? Material? *) "... A spell whose casting time is more than 1...

    Good PrC for Erky Timbers?

    Would you mind suggesting me a good Prestige Class, suitable for Erky Timbers (CG male gnome Ftr5/Clr5)? He is currently involved in Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil. Erky would like to improve his spellcasting abilities. With him are Ciao (LN male elf Mnk10, unhitable melee machine), Kor...

    What exactly is a Cambion?

    I wondered again after reading Dragon #92 (superb!) what exactly is a Cambion. A Human/Half-Fiend? I meant Dungeon, of course.

    Shouldn't Miracle have an XP component?

    Inspired by the excellent [B.A.D.D.] Dragon Spell List Feedback thread, I wondered again about Miracle. Shouldn't have this spell the same XP cost (5,000 XP) as Wish? IMC, it has.

    What's wrong with... Divine Power?

    Let's analyze this spell. "The character gains the base attack bonus of a fighter of the character's total character level" No other effect, including Feats and Special Abilities, changes your BAB. Except for Divine Power and Tenser's Transformation. Feels quite wrong. IMO, this should be...

    What's wrong with Sound Burst (Brd2, Clr2)?

    From the SRD: No save? A 2nd level area effect spell for Clerics and Bards has two very good effects and offers no save? Sonic Damage plus stunning! IMO, stunning is the next best thing to being held. Compare this spell to Glitterdust (Brd2, Sor/Wiz2). Cancels invisibility, Will save to avoid...
