    Gary Gygax has passed. RIP beloved father of RPG's. (merged)

    Thank you for helping create a way for awkward teens to get together. You were a good man. You will be missed.

    Is Mystic Theurge a balanced P. class?

    Gee, I lost my "beating the dead horse" animated GIF in a computer reformat... Too bad. Just to toss my 2c in... I was another who thought the Mystic Theurge (MT) was overpowered. It's not. In fact, in a campaign that goes to epic levels, it's vastly underpowered. It's only "powerful" from...

    Gilligan's Island Syndrome and authors

    Started? Dude, they've been the same story every time... I used to love the Sword of Truth books. Each book introduces a new Wizards' rule, keeping with the theme of the first book (this is a good "repetition," IMO). However, the rest... Every book, Richard gets captured, neutralized, and/or...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Deflect Arrows feat (3.5)

    Thanks! I've been away for a while. I'll have a look

    D&D 3E/3.5 Deflect Arrows feat (3.5)

    That's what it looked like to me and that's how my DM's running it. It just seemed over the top. I'm playing a defense-focused monk, so most enemies can't hit me more than 1-2 times per round. I'll take it, though. It's not like I have a surplus of hit points to absorb damage. Thanks!

    D&D 3E/3.5 Deflect Arrows feat (3.5)

    It appears the requirement to roll a reflex save has been removed from Deflect Arrows in 3.5. Just wanted to check to see if this is really a change (it is in both the SRD and PHB 3.5). It's how my GM has been playing it, but I kind of thing the design team just forgot to add a line to it. If...

    D&D 3E/3.5 What 3.5'isms do you use you swore you wouldn't?

    Stat boost nerf, bah My primary issue is with the debuff of the buff-spells. The only way they were "ba-roken" is if you multi-empowered them. They would've been just fine with the clarification (which is already in 3.5) that you can't use the same metamagic feat on a spell multiple times...

    Cleric domain variant

    I have been considering allowing clerics to add their domain spells to their regular spell list in my campaign. Would this be unbalancing? Which domains would pose a particular problem? Maybe I could tone them down a bit. I hear all the time about how powerful clerics are, but they still aren't...

    AU - first impressions?

    lol. I just find this quote ironic, as I was trying to convince someone that the 3.0 monk isn't hideously overpowered just a few weeks ago. He is convinced that a monk is worth any 2 other characters of equivalent level. I, obviously, disagree. The 3.5 monk looks pretty tough. Picking up AU...

    Order of the Bow Initiate is INCREDIBLY broken.

    Lame. Do all your PCs carry a weapon golf-bag while adventuring to replace all their broken weapons during a session? I'm not really into critical failures. D&D isn't really set up for it. The worst I do is on a 1, they have to roll another attack to confirm the fumble (like confirming a...

    Revised DR

    Hey, just getting back into the whole 3e online gig. Where do you find these 3e revised rules? Thanks

    Thanks, guys, you've ruined Haste for the rest of us.

    Actually, I think Haste would be fine if it had a 1-round startup time. Not a full-round cast, but have it take until your next action to take full effect.
