Well I had to do an assignment on Friday proving amongst other other things that the 13th of each month is more likely to be a Friday than any other day of the week. Spooky...

The point is finding out by how much a small character is worse off when trying to directly compete with medium characters. If you compare small and medium with the same strength score its meaningless because: 1) You're comparing a small fighter with a medium fighter who is just not as dedicated...

But the small character should have 20 strength not 22 for it to be a true comparison.

I think a lot of small character melee builds have been damaged indirectly by a combination of small changes. Due to strength penalties a disproportionate number of small characters weapon finesse their weapons. To achieve high damage they principly used either power attack or sneak attack...

A player tried this on me today but It just seemed a little off. In 3.5 can you take both your primary and offhand attack with the same set of armour spikes? Effectively TWF with a single weapon? And can you take an attack with Two-handed Weapon and then an offhand attack with the spikes...

Sorry I did miss that we were only going to lvl 10. But for the rest check again. In 3.5 Shuriken are drawn like ammunition (as a free action) and do strength bonus damage. Throwing daggers are weapons and must be enchanted seperately which adds up to alot when throwing 8 a round. Shuriken can...

Now that the Two weapon fighting chain works with thrown weapons and shuriken count as ammo... Halfling Fighter 4/Rogue 16 TWF Improved TWF Greater TWF Point Blank Shot Rapid Shot Precise Shot EWP: Shuriken Weapon Focus: Shuriken Weapon Specialisation: Shuriken etc. Use Magic Device to cast...

What about adamantine shields? Do they still exist and if so how are they priced?

193) Are their any weapons that are finesseable apart from light weapons, rapier, spiked chain and whip? 194) Do any classes not have profession as a class skill?

Thanks for all the answers. Really! 127) Is there any penalty to hit when using a tower shield? 128) How does taking cover with a tower shield work. 129) Are there any conversion notes for going from 3.0 to 3.5

I'm more put out (if I'm reading it correctly) by the fact that you now can't power attack with a light weapon. A fighter with a light weapon can't convert their accuracy into increased damage now without also being a rogue. In fact you can't do much with your accuracy because light weapons are...

I think the quality of your Living Greyhawk experience is almost entirely based on your local community. If the local scene has a good and dedicated organiser who provides modules to DMs well in advance, and has a sufficient pool of volunteer DMs that some quality control can be involved in...

Long ago when I first came to these boards I remember Erik Mona posting a history of the various stages/versions the World of Greyhawk had gone through. Does anyone have acopy of that post? Thanks

I was told by a friend that Sense Motive and Bluff were going to become class skills for Rangers in 3.5. Does any one know if there is any basis for this rumour? Thanks

I think it may be. We face creatures all the time which can kill a non-fighter PC in a single attack sequence. So even with a very high AC eventually my rogue would be paste just by the law of averages if he lets himself stay in melee.
