    (Another) Samurai Core Class

    I like this re-work, especially since I'm a fan of low-magic and OA. I also like the spear/polearm addition since it is more historical. I do have some questions... I would have to do the math, but is focused strike worth it once BAb is high enough to get multiple attacks? My guess is that it...

    Negative level/energy drain house rule & death too

    I guess it would be noce to know why the extra umph to level drain... is it not bad enough already? That is, why would you house-rule these? Also, what about undead that drainn levels? They don't have Con scores.

    Dead Levels for non-Core

    Did you read the page I linked to? Wiz's also get new spells every level but they get DL benefits. yes, balance counts. If not, everyone would just get a feat at a DL. The benefits are supposed to be neat "extras", not amazing new abilities. I'm fine either way with that. I just threw...

    Psychoblast

    I don't know if you are trying to mix psionics with the warlock, but warlocks by themselves aren't psionic. If you are thinking a charcater is both psionic (iie thru a nother class), then one of the preprequisites should be that the character can become psionically focussed (have 1+ pp). Also...

    Dead Levels for non-Core

    I just saw the Dead Levels page over at Wizards and thought it a neat idea. I always felt 7th level was one of the most boring for most classes, but this page covers all DLs. So... I was wondering if anyone had ideas for non-core base classes like psion, hexblade (arguably only 18th)...

    Brutal Hit

    I like this version of the feats, but I'm not sure why this last bit is in there. Characters don't have to declare when they're using Weapon Focus, Specialization, etc. The effect is just factored into the play.

    Biosoph Class - Archivist of Nature

    I like this a lot. OK if I use it in my campaign? It's a world where the gods have died and so the only divine magic available is in scrolls and prayerbooks. This is a perfect complement to the archivist. The only suggestion I have is to change the name... I'm a biologist (in the real...

    Half swording

    Which trades AB for damage. How's it the same?

    Half swording

    On further consideration, I think widening the scope of the feat would be more in line with standard feats unless you really like weapon-specific feats with "detail." That is, make it the exact opposite of Combat Expertise (tade AC for attack bonus, but AC --> AB instead of the other way). I'd...

    Half swording

    From what I understand, having a hand on the blade wasn't such an exotic use of the sword in medieval Europe. See here (http://www.thearma.org/essays/knightvs.htm) if curious. Game-wise, why just a -1 AC balanced by a +2 attack? Maybe that's OK, since this is a feat and you have to "pay"...

    A One-Handed Wizard in Combat Needs Your Help!

    I played a one-armed elven fighter/wizard for a while and appreciated what I learned in teh process. For what it's worth maybe your player's character could pull wands more easily if he took Quick Draw (I'd allow it to be applied to non-weapons like this).

    The 9 God world

    This is awesome and why I love D&D so much -- in what other activity can a person make a world as they see fit (answer: as American president)? But seriously, I love the imaginative part. When I read through your world, I did have questions like where do magic items come from, but you always...

    Help! I can't see my feat! (Bluff as ME action)

    So many moons ago I think I saw a feat somewhere that allows a bluff an a move equivalent action, but now I can't find it. Looked in PHB (3.5e), Song and Silence, Complete Warr, etc etc. Any ideas?

    Post Your House Rules

    I'm still getting the hang of 3.5e, and so some of these may not be pertinent. I use some flavor feats for my OA setting: Tea Master [General]You have discovered not only calmness but purpose in the way of serving tea. Prerequisites: 4 or more ranks in Craft (Tea Ceremony) Benefit: You gain +2...

    Freedom's Wrath - the Mace of Mandal (new inteligent item)

    I like it, though the only question I have is why does it have such great abilities with only a +1 enchantment... they seem incongruous. But if that's ok with you, then that's fine, of coyrse.

    Charismatic Corpses?

    Fuel on the fire... so how is Wisdom different from Charisma? Why not make Will saves cith the Cha mod? If someone tries to Charm you, why not make a Cha-based save since it's your personality theyre assaulting? I understand Wis also accounts for insight and maybe introspection which Cha may...

    Wealth feat?

    I think Nifft or Scion have the right idea because their feat ideas are useful to you even at higher levels I I took a one-shot wealth feat at level 1, it woud be nearly useless to me at level 5, say (I wasted a feat on just 500gp?! :( ). So, feats that give and keep on giving are probably...
