    Delay initiative/flat-footed?

    Suppose my fighter encounters an ogre and we roll initiative. (Assume no surprise round.)My fighter wins the initiative, but decides to delay his initiative until after the ogre's turn. Is my fighter considered flat-footed if the ogre decides to attack me on this turn?

    Is Jack Bauer LG?

    Chaotic Good. He fights to protect the innocent people of the world and those he loves. If he happens to break a few laws to do so, he doesn't hesitate. If he has to put his own life on the line to help uphold the greater good, so be it. He's far from evil, and far from lawful.

    Feat Problems With PHB II

    If you have Weapon Supremacy with the short sword and use 2 short swords (one in primary hand and one in off-hand), do you get +1 AC for each weapon for a total of +2 AC? Can you take 10 on an attack with each weapon?

    Questions about/Problems with PHB II

    Charge is used AS a fullround action. Whirlwind is used WITH a fullround action. It seems there might be a difference.

    Questions about/Problems with PHB II

    Ok, so Elusive/Counter/Overpowering attack can't be used with each other, or with combat expertise because they are all used AS a full round action, not WITH a full round action. But how about with Whirlwind Attack? WHIRLWIND ATTACK [GENERAL] Benefit: WHEN you use the full attack action, you...

    Questions about/Problems with PHB II

    (Continued from my last post) It would have been nice if Two-Weapon fighters were allowed to make 1 attack with EACH weapon (TWF attack penalties being applied normally) when using these alternate Fighter abilities. :) What do you think?

    Questions about/Problems with PHB II

    Just got the book and really like it so far. I do have one problem concerning the alternate fighter abilities you can choose instead of fighter feats at levels 6, 12, 16. ------------------------ ELUSIVE ATTACK You know that the key to winning any fight is not getting hit, so you trade...

    Tempest using shield as off-hand weapon

    New Feat: Lion Tamer Benefit- You are proficient with using a chair of your size or smaller as a one handed weapon. You may also apply a +1 AC bonus against any single lion when holding a chair (you must be aware of lion, not flat-footed).

    Tempest using shield as off-hand weapon

    Personally, I think a "Weapon" should be defined as anything you can attack with and deal damage. A square of toilet paper obviously wouldn't count. But a tree branch or a chair definitely would, cause you could hurt someone with it. For a Tempest to be able to apply the special class AC bonus...

    My mistake. Thanks for clearing things up.

    Tempest using shield as off-hand weapon

    When fighting with two weapons a Tempest gains a +1 shield bonus at 1st level, +2 at 3rd and +3 at 5th. If one of those weapons happens to be a shield (and assuming the character has the improved shield bash feat), does the Tempest add this class shield bonus to the AC bonus already provided by...

    Rules for disarm illogical?

    When you are actively trying to defend yourself, you are paying more attention to the attacks made against you, so you should be more alert against such special attacks as disarm and sunder. I still think DEFENDING yourself against such attacks should be based on DEFENSIVE ability rather than...

    Rules for disarm illogical?

    Disarm, Step 2: Opposed Rolls. You and the defender make opposed ATTACK ROLLS with your respective weapons. So, if I'm the defender and I happen to be fighting defensively (-4 to attack), I am easier to disarm than if I hadn't been fighting defensively? What is the logic behind this? Shouldn't...

    Is this combo as broken as I think it is?

    Thanee pointed out earlier that Mage's Disjunction can be used to bring down AM fields, which is something I overlooked at first, but I just looked it up in the SRD and it says this only has a 1% chance / caster level of working. A 20th level caster would only have a 20% chance of success. So a...

    Is this combo as broken as I think it is?

    I thought ranged spells sort of 'winked out' once they hit an antimagic field. Or do they pass through?
