A Cleric casts Divine Power A Cleric casts Spiritual Weapon Does the Spiritual Weapon use the Cleric's normal base attack bonus or Divine Power's improved BAB?

When a Character uses the feat "Manyshot" does the player roll one die only? Would you allow a character who fired a shot from a bow with his/her last action to have the requisite free hand needed to use snatch arrows?

"By the Book", would a Druid need Armor Proficiency: Heavy to wear Dragonhide Plate?

DMG page 298 "A creatrue with resistance to energy has the ability...to ignore some damage of a certain type...each round." AND "A janni can ignore the first 10 points of fire damage it takes each attack " These conflict, don't they? The first quote is correct, isn't it? Please direct me...

Thank you for your replies. KaeYoss and gfunk, regarding the spell Align Weapon and carrying Holy Weapons - that is what annoys my Cleric (and, well, me), he doesn't want to cast good spells or carry around holy magic weapons. Through 3.0, he has nevercast a good spell, such as protection...

If a Demon is Chaotic Evil, and from my understanding of Planescape and such settings, aren't Demons just as chaotic as they are evil? If so (and even if not so), shouldn't Demons have damage reduction x / good or lawful ? And thus good or chaotic for Devils? I think this choice by the...

Slow, Errata The full description of SLOW reads, "-1 penalty on attack rolls, AC and Reflex saves." The Summary at the beginning of the spells chapter reads, "-2 to AC, -2 on attack rolls." This is the kind of error that is going to make converting to 3.5 more painful than I had hoped. Sorry...

Does Holy Word, Dictum et al. work when the caster is not on his/her home plane? Does Holy Word, Dictum et al. affect animals? The words in the description would indicate yes, but this seems a little funny. I would be especially concerned about the effects on the friendly Druid's animal...

No way I would let a character use multiple wilding clasps. Anything that seems as abusive as this, probably is. I wouldn't let a character where a periapt of wisdom and an amulet of natural armor, why allow two wilding clasps it's all the same thing. Allowing a wilding claps and another...

I player in the last campaign I played in played a Kobold Paladin, with no ECL adjustment vs. other human and Elfish characters. His character was pretty terrible, but he enjoyed playing the little fellow though. Don't get tied up in good/bad meaning the same as powerful/awful. If the player...

Does a PC/NPC with improved unarmed strike incur attacks of opportunity when starting a grapple? If no, has anyone had a problem with a monk or high strength warrior type just squeezing the life out of many enemies? In this week's game, my bull's strengthed, raging 4th level barbarian did...

Your Dad's Not That Tough I started to think along the lines of ultimate survivor – thus I thought about the Dwarven Defender and copied the natural armor rate of increase and did a modified version of the damage reduction (this class is available one level lower than DD). I also used two of...

I'm told that Dungeon Magazine had a list of ECL's (equivalent character levels) for the Monsters in the Monster Manual. What was the ECL 'bonus' for werebears? Also, if anyone stats werecreature PC's or NPC's differently than the Monster Manual describes, I would be interested in your...
