    Previous 3.x 3PP: Expand in your Pathfinder conversion

    What update is needed for PF? Wasn't that the whole point of PF: keeping 3.5 on the market and ensuring your 3.5 stuff was still usable? If someone already had a 3.5 product, why would they need a PF update? I mean, it's cool if they want to reprint something that was already printed, but...

    Pathfinder 1E So you got the final Pathfinder and you see something you really LIKE

    I've played 1E to 4E, and loved them all. Yes. Even 4E. But 1E to 3E all share a common feeling that 4E doesn't share (not that this is a bad thing, mind you. Want to make this clear). While maybe not the "like" that you were looking for, but I like the fact that PF is going to keep that...

    Saving Throws and Spells

    I realize how it works, it's been the same way since I started playing, but when you only have a few high level spells, you run dry pretty quick. This is why Spell Points are so popular. Even still, Defensive based spells usually allow for saving throws as well, negating their usefulness...

    Saving Throws and Spells

    One issue I remember with 3/3.5 was spell casters, spell penetration, and saving throws. Low level spells became useless at higher levels. Sleep would be useful for a few levels, but then quickly started to become less than useful because monster saves would sky rocket. Unfortunately, it's...

    D&D 3E/3.5 I Play 3.5; Sell me on Pathfinder

    I haven't noticed anything yet, but have they resolved the issue with monsters making most of their saving throws v.s. various spells? I found it quite annoying that as I gained levels, the monsters ST's went up, and lower level spells became less and less effective, to the point were having...

    I’m Thinking of Giving 4e Another Shot

    Admin here. You may have missed my warnings on the proceeding pages; I know you're trying to discuss something interesting, but please do not hijack this thread, especially with confrontative snark (and that applies to everyone, really). I've put your post in a spoiler block instead of deleting...

    I’m Thinking of Giving 4e Another Shot

    The risk is too great. There are other more appealing options available. Daily Powers aren't the end all of powers. So? Rather weak point.

    I’m Thinking of Giving 4e Another Shot

    It's done the same way casters spent 1E, 2E, and 3E with the spell system. It's really just as simple as saying "hey, my character would want to do that right now because he can." The exploit is incredibly difficult to pull off, and everything is in the right position, I can do this...

    I’m Thinking of Giving 4e Another Shot

    How? Honest question here. I'd like your opinion on why this is? 1E, 2E, and 3E all were a hodge podge of rules/role playing mixed and did little to help role players actually role play. Taken as whole Edition, each of the previous editions rule sets were much worse than what 4E has to offer...

    Board/Card game suggestions

    I'm gonna second this suggestion to visit BGG. I'm also going to suggest Robo Rally as a fun family style game that a gamer should enjoy.

    Polearm Gamble - Rules Clarification

    Just as an update, here is what WotC says about PG: "At this time this feat is currently under errata consideration. There is no official ruling on this at the time, so it would be your DM's call."

    Polearm Gamble - Rules Clarification

    So, talking with my DM today and another fellow player in our group, and we are slightly confused over the wording and intent of PG. Keep in mind, some of these questions are mine, and some seem might be obvious, but I'm just asking for clarity sake. "Polearm gamble Prereq: STR 15, WIS 15...
