    "Specialist" Sorcerers: How do you balance them?

    Well, I *did* ask if I was crazy :). I dunno. Making it impossible to ever cast Dispel Magic or Haste or Fly or Fireball or Teleport or Disentegrate or any buffing/mass damage spell in general just seems to me to be a huge restriction that goes above and beyond. And he's still a sorcerer...

    "Specialist" Sorcerers: How do you balance them?

    Yeah, because his opponents are going to be saving like crazy against all those Conjuration spells, right? :P

    New feat for Melee Mages

    He doesn't have to be in melee combat. He can be wandering around the battlefield Invisible, casting free Hold Persons on folks. For a non-invisible caster, it'd be more balanced.

    "Specialist" Sorcerers: How do you balance them?

    A guy in my campaign doesn't want to play a wizard, but he also doesn't want to play a run-of-the-mill sorcerer . . . he likes the no-memorization thing, but wants to limit his spells to two schools. (He's picked Conjuration and Divination, not because they are the most powergamey combination to...

    What if every class worked the same way?

    You can also do something like this in Four Color To Fantasy (4CTF), the Superheroes book from Natural 20 Press. They have a "Hero" class for which you get "Hero" points . . . with which you can buy superpowers, movement boosts, feats, skill points, ability increases, hit points, bonuses to...

    New (somewhat cinematic) Feat: Knockback

    Probably not. Not something I'm deeply concerned about, as I don't allow it (or any of the other silly Shield feats) in my campaign; hell, with all of those feats, it's like Shields have become the best weapons in the game -- second only maybe to the greatsword.

    PROOF that Empower Spell should not be allowed to stack with itself!

    Re: Re: Re: PROOF that Empower Spell should not be allowed to stack with itself! Show me an 80th level fighter with only 1000hp, and I'll show you the worst constructed munchkin fighter in the history of the world. An 80th level fighter is going to have a Con of at least 30; probably more...

    Can I use two shields at the same time?

    Re: Bumpity bump... The DnD FAQ/Sage Advice says (mostly for balance reasons, I think) that you can't cast somatic components if one hand is full and there's a buckler on your other arm. Hey, I didn't make the ruling. :p

    New feat for Melee Mages

    I vote for death threats. Expert Tactician was errata'd from partial action to melee attack because it was far, far, far, far too cheaty otherwise. You're basically removing the errata here. If you have this feat, any time a blind kobold walks past you while you're Improved Invis'd, you get...

    What's Up With The Monk?

    Well, throwing pits in to the equation made it even tougher on the party -- not really a fair test in any event. I mean, the terrain wasn't just special, it was uniquely bad for the party. Your ruling was correct, but I probably would have warned the wizard about what was coming. You got him...

    New (somewhat cinematic) Feat: Knockback

    I don't have DoTF handy, and I'm not familiar with the Knockback weapon enchantment or the Battering Ram spell. Can you give a quick descript? I'm aware of Large and In Charge, and it *is* similar to what that feat does, though a little less cinematic. Spindel -- the problem is that if you...

    Some Monkly Feats

    Thought I'd selfishly give this a BUMP. Hell, a thread about a feat that tries to make dwarves waddle less has received 21 posts so far. I figure this thread has to be worth at least that :D.

    New (somewhat cinematic) Feat: Knockback

    I don't think it's Knockback, it's Knockdown. Basically if you hit someone hard enough, you get a free Improved Trip attack against them. So it's a similar effect, except you don't knock them BACK, you just trip them. Very lame. This feat, on the other hand, allows you (or the PCs) to make...

    New (somewhat cinematic) Feat: Knockback

    KNOCKBACK You have problems with people invading your personal space. Prerequisites: Power Attack, Str 20+ You may attempt to knock your opponents away from you with a a bludgeoning weapon, slam, or claw attack. On a successful hit, you make a contested Bull Rush against them, at a size...

    Need a broken test!

    I concur. Touch attacks are no substitute for saving throws, regardless of what some published munchkin designers out there might think. At *least* a 4th level spell, at one round/level. Making someone blind in combat is pretty damn strong -- especially fighter types.

    What Would You Do: The Halfling Problem

    Pat yourself on the back for picking such a rocking name -- that's what you should do :D.

    Would you leave your life behind?

    Whatever . . . just make sure that you come in as a wizard who knows Prestidigitation. No need for toilet paper ever again!

    I've always thought that Bumping threads were incredibly childish. Do you really having nothing better to do with your time?! :D

    TangleWING bag???

    Re: Did someone say Munchkin Rules Monkey? Only a munchkin rules lawyer would bring up the fact that there's only one Tarrasque . . . SUPPOSEDLY. :p My guess is that that's probably correct, though. All the others died of starvation -- I mean, look at his frickin' movement rate. And you can...
