"thought that what he was saying was that he was in combat, and then hid. When you do that, your opponent still has an initiative, and is still acting in combat, therefore isn't flat-footed. They are quite taken aback by you jumping from the shadows and stabbing them in the neck, but are not...

Ok in 3.0 assume that you are flanking etc, your foe is denied dex. when I use a wand and hit with a ray i get my sneak attack damage of the same type as the wand damage. What about touch attacks and ability damage? is there a spell that would give em the ability to do ability damage to a foe...

further to that question 3.0 my dm rules that the extra attack on the opponant that was denied his dex given by combat expertise is NOT a sneak attack if I attacked out of the shadows. eg I have HIPS i hit the opponant on my 1st attack from the shadow. after this point all my attacks are...

ha I snorted my coffee back into my cup on that one myself. I know someone called Brian. wonder if its the same one. I think Jack Villenuef (pardon my spelling) plays too. fantasy stuffs not such a big deal nowadays. I mean You can get trip to NZ on bottles of brown sauce these days cos...

Try Cleric/rogue/shadowdancer/contemplative? mix make sure you get the celerity domain. Put a load of points in hide and move silently and 1 point in each other rogue skill at least. then you can "buff "your skills by 10 with the spell Wieldskill duration 1 min per level. take the...

1) Ian, London UK, 36 2) It is an escape from reality, provides the freedom to use one's imagination there is also a feeling of sucess when you complete an adventure,quest, thing. 3) Fav character was Maddenus a 16th level human Duelist from Dragon magazine wayyyyy back. 4) best memory in a...

SOmetimes we give our dm a hard time. if we do he rule zeros. He is running the game. may make him sound like an ass but he isnt. given the way we are all individuals in this game and teamwork revolves mostly around not harming the other player as opposed to getting together and moving...

"The reason I am asking is the rogue is my wife and thing can get a bit nasty." Just say yes dear. then after you have had your night of passion say sorry I just read this ;)

wow I really can't be bothered to read all of that. Why are people even talking about closing their eyes in a fight. If you do that you get beaten up. You cannot "actively" ignore someone. You have to be aware of them. You cannot choose to ignore someone. its not the same as not taking...

err yes I do play it that night is simply the shadow created by the earth, its just a jolly big shadow. very very big big shadow. err spotting the shadow in the wrong place hmm good point. err for gameplay reasons I'll not mention that to my DM :) hang on a sec I know. That is why the...

The ruling on HIPS in the game I play in was argued quite heatedly. There was no way my shadowdancer was going to lose his HIPS ability. Shadows are the absence of light in our game, in varing degrees. so if you are in a dark room with no light then you are in 100% shadow, the sun can be...

The other thing is even if you work for a publishing company getting your stuff across is a pain if you work in the wrong area. :em/ goes off looking for a drink.

Well an earlier character I had took it because the blasted dwarf clerics we were with were so slow that it took days to travel between towns instead of hours. but then those bridge building buaskits made themselves flying masks.

game arena counts too " I think I still prefer Point Blank Shot and eventually picking up Rapid Shot. It still helps to keep the rogue alive, since there is a range factor involved and using a missle weapon helps when attempting sneak attacks on huge plus size creatures where a normal melee...
