    Divine Vigor or Divine Shield?

    I really hate how all the divive have different mechanics now. The newer WotC books are somewhat inconsistent in their rulings. Anyway, I heavily revised the divine feats in my campaign. I made them all standard actions but I allow Quicken Turning to be applied to them (once per round). I...

    Campaigns you hope to run someday before you die

    There is one game I've ALWAYS wanted to play but never spent enough time to track down the books... GHOSTBUSTERS!! Oh man, I so wanted to play that game and set it my home town. It would be so much fun to go bust ghosts in all of your friend's houses or your school! I would make it so campy...

    Campaigns you hope to run someday before you die

    I would love to do this. I've talked about it with multiple groups but it ever came up. I think it would be a blast. I wanted to base it on the Thief video game. If I could capture the mood and feel of the world that games provokes and put it into a campaign, it would be like sweet and...

    Verboten! What do you NOT allow in your campaigns?

    Not much love for paladins, gnomes, or monks. How sad. My decisions are mostly based on bad experiences in past campaigns which is why I tend to be pretty open to what my players want to play. I've been in groups where low-magic and restrictions were an attempt to thwart "supposed"...

    I think I'm over crunch

    Me too. That book actually sounds pretty cool.

    Verboten! What do you NOT allow in your campaigns?

    I think I would like this group. :D I hate saying "no" to my players. Of course sometimes you have to but I'll at least listen to anything. I try to tell the players what their options are up front (races available, PrC rules, etc) so they know going what their choices are. Just letting...

    BoED -- Vow of Poverty

    I agree. You know something's wrong when there is a two-page discussion on whether or not a character could still have a mule. Please. If this took up this much time in my game, it would be dropped in a second. VoP is lame.

    Concentration

    I'm not sure I like the Conc check to avoid AoO's. That doesn't really make sense to me. Anyway, I use Conc checks to allow characters to do more damage to objects. I even made a feat to go along with it: Mind Over Matter [General] You can harness your inner ki to shatter objects...

    I think I'm over crunch

    Amen and a hallelujah. I feel everytime a new book comes out, I have to spend a day and half going through it and house ruling it to death. I RARELY use anything as-is anymore. I would love some books on creating adventures or short scenarios with detailed maps, etc. I'm up to my eyeballs...

    Help on the Drow and Underdark

    I ran a good portion of CotSQ and wasn't a big fan of it honestly. Be prepared for LOTS of combat. If you are a spellcaster, make sure you take Spell Penetration. The drow get very annoying VERY fast. I found that the module read a lot better than it played.

    Druid/Wizard Notes

    I'm playing a Drd 3/Wiz 3/MT 8 right now and it's a blast. The spell lists really compliment each other nicely. I've been playing this class before CD came out (and thus the Practiced Spellcaster feat) but the only real problem I've had is beating SR (and I have Spell Penetration). I use a...

    I was really into Feats once...

    I kind of agree. The more I play 3ed (I've been playing it since it came) the more I find myself going back to the core books. I'm just becoming desensitized to all the new "stuff" that's out now.

    cleric/rogue character builds?

    That Divine Trickster is VERY powerful. Full casting, +5d6 sneak attack, slippery mind AND hide in plain sight?!?! HOLY! All that for clr 3/rog 3 req's. Anyway, I love the clr/rog concept and I actually made my own Divine Trickster: Requirements To qualify to become a divine trickster, a...
