Its in sword and fist. In my opinion it is quite overpowered: ranged touch attack to trip, chance to grapple. It's an exotic weapon

The rules are a bit silly, do you know what a fortune a 1st lvl wizard has? if he has 16 int, he has 16 lvl 0 spells, thats 16 pages, plus 6 lvl 1 spells, that is 12 pages. Total: 2800 gp in spells. You could make a very good living out of killing apprentice mages. And the best: they can't even...

After the success of the Book of Eldritch Might, a lot of people where awaiting Monte Cook's second book of the series. I also bought the first book, and I was quite content with it. After I looked at the first reviews on the messageboards, I decided to buy it myself. I will give my opinion...

need something to test either

Really nasty tactic: first do some subdual damage. 5 subdual damage, harm, enemy is unconsious. can't do anything anymore. In a game I runned a while ago I gave it a will save, just for statistics, it has never been used. But Malenkirk is right, to balance it with slay living you should either...

Why does everybody forget polymorph? Why not polymorph self? Sometimes you want to do it sneaky, and a dragon form is not my idea of "low-profile".

You can't cast harm within a timestop: it requires an attack, and the description states you can't attack while in timestop.

whoot!!!!!!!

After rereading the text of the lich, I thought of something even better: To kill the lich, the phylactery needs to be located and destroyed. Since the phylactery is lost forever, it cannot be located by definition, and thus whatever happens to phylactery doesn't matter. Ok, you need to take...

Items in a bag of holding get "lost forever" if the bag is pierced. What if a lich puts his Phylactery into a bag of holding and destroys the bag? Does this result into an invulnerable lich, since his Phylactery is forever lost and thus impossible to destroy?

Where comes this rule from? I have never heard of it.

I have almost only played spellcasters, and I have hardly played above lvl 10. It is a very bad choice to multiclass as a spellcaster: you are weakening your only power

I have always imagined potions like small vials, like the shampoo you get at hotels. And I think a steel (or other metal) potion isn't that strange I think. And I think the common potion is not made of glass, since glass is difficult to produce. Glass things were very rare until far after the...

Is that so powerful? If you can sacrifice a lvl 3 lightning bolt, to do 3d8 damage, or cast the lightning bolt, for 10d6 to more creatures, what do you do? Unless you are a wizard with a lot of non combat spells prepared and in the middle of a fight, or a very badly designed sorcerer, I don't...

The price is simple: DMG 242, 500 gp/lbs. That is 7500, plus the normal price of a greatsword. I have never seen any mithril weapons be used, since it doesn't give any bonusses except the weight. Maybe good for someone who can hardly support the weight of his equipment, but most fighter types...

Don't worry. It is good it is possible, like in the example, it is a pitty if an adventure gets stuck on not finding a critical item, and it is strange if you can't find something even while you have the time to completely turn the place around. And don't worry about searching for traps in...

just played 2e for half a year, and a lot of baldurs gate, but I really like the third system. The only good thing about thaco was its pronounciation, it sounds better than "to hit" or BAB

Agree. Everybody is just trying to poll, and eating resources, while the board is almost crashing. How do you mean communicate? Of course we don't, we are a group of deaf, blind and mime players!

This is getting to bad. Is there already an "What is the worst poll" poll? This poll, and that poll itself, should be included ;)

I would be very careful with the improved familiar spell: regeneration or damage reduction are to good for just a little xp. And the steal sleep spell is also good. One of our wizards casts it often on his toad familiar. Toad sleepes in his pocket, and he goes on day and night. Other than these...
