The SRD doesn't strictly say it, but I always interpreted it as "If the human shares two highest-level classes, choose one to determine the favored class"

That article explains it all. Thanks alot, Mystern!

Thanks for your responses. This thought might have come from Blink indeed. But.. trying to sneak attack while blinking will pose problems on itself, if you ask me. For one, wouldn't blinking count as others having concealment vs you (since you have the miss chance), or is that just some unnamed...

I could swear that when you have concealment vs someone, you can make sneak attacks to that someone. Searching through the books, I can't find any rules to back that up though. Can somebody please tell me where to find this rule? Or prove me wrong about this, of course :) Thanks!

Hi all, I'm wondering about the possibilities of casting spells with a verbal while you're underwater (we'll leave the the possibility of fumbling wet spellcomponents outside of this for now). To quote the SRD: "To cast a spell, you must be able to speak". While the incantation might be able to...

Understood. Thanks Hyp, your explanation is very clear and imaginative!

The spell Darkness: With this spell it might not be a big problem, but with spells like Deeper Darkness and Utterdark (source: Book of Vile Darkness), the radius of the darkness gets bigger and I can't find any reference to how dark it is exactly. The DMG isn't much help, it focuses on persons...

I don't like the action either... never used it. There's one situation I could imagine it being used though; if your friend the spellcaster is being bashed to bits by a BBEG, you can bull rush the BBEG away from him.

May I ask what the paragon template does and what book I can find it in? Thanks.

Thanks! Just what I needed.

I'm looking for a table with huge weapons. A conversion table if dice damage with scaling weapons would do as well. I can't find any on de SRD :( Anyone?

Thanks all for your responses!

English is not my mother language and I have no idea what an abberation is. I've seen some in the MM, but can't find the common features that makes it an abberation. The dictionary doesn't help either, so I'm asking you: What defines an abberation? Thanks

I'm not trying to accomplish such a thing as you're suggesting, I'm merely trying to look for a good, balanced way to create more prestige classes. Every time when I create a new character, I look through the prestige classes in numerous books (I guess that's what alot of people do nowadays...
