    Beholders & Illithids and their "thralls"; how does that work out?

    Although that may well all be true Wayne, I would think that these alien abberations, namely the mind flayer, would be quite distant and too dispassionate to be involved in what I would call an "intimate relationship" (remember sadism is intimacy on a different tangent). If someone is to be...

    Regarding Reach...

    Regarding Reach...

    remember though...if you attack and move more than 5ft. then you incur attacks of opportunity. So with your tactic, you are trading blow for every blow as both you and your opponent each gets one Aoo against each other.

    Regarding Reach...

    Thanks for clearing that out for me Hyp...you're da new Caliban (meant as a compliment)! I must say reading certain threads and responses therein some board members are still under the same presumption that I *used* to have! Realizing that reach weapons (and no spring attack) only really give...

    Regarding Reach...

    I had always thought that if someone triggers an Aoo from your having a greater reach (say your 10 ft. reach vs his 5 ft.) then stepping back 5 ft. will allow you to have a new Aoo should he close in again. Then I thought: "Wait a minute, doesn't your opponent taking a 5 ft. step to close into...

    summon monster

    ...Maybe you should check out Book of Exalted Deeds...it has many more "good" monsters added for summon monsters...it may give you an insight on "how to expand the list".

    Single Weapon Style

    trainz - you are on the same track of mind as I am. :cool: The following are feats designed for the single weapon fighter that our group playtested (nothing rigorous) over a 2 year period. Single Weapon Focus [General, Fighter]: You are adept in fighting with but a single one-handed weapon...

    Two people dominate a monster; who gets to drive?

    Well...what if the conflicting orders is something that takes more than a round to complete? Such as a malefic wizard magically ordering the ogre to break open the dam (say it takes 3 rounds to do) while the resident sorcerer taking control of the brute to stop his destructive actions?!

    The perfect ambush spot?

    ...Actually many movies I've seen over the years featured bathroom as the place to ambush/assassinate. It is a wonder with my mind in "gutter mode(tm)" while playing D&D, I've never turned into that train of thought.

    Brilliant Energy weapons can bypass shields too?

    It would be dang cool if brilliant energy weapons could ignore force effects...but would that not give it the ability to also shear through wall of force and other such force protected areas? As a DM i would only allow the brilliant energy to ignore armor & shield bonuses (but not epically...

    Brilliant Energy weapons can bypass shields too?

    It says in its description that it bypasses all armor bonuses...as of 3.5e shields now have shield bonus to AC as opposed to armor bonus to AC that it had back in 3.0e. Do you think it is an oversight on the part of 3.5e designers or is it strictly designed to negate only body armor and not...

    Info on Kitsune?

    According to Korean mythos...(and I'm sure the original source of this mythos may well be Chinese in origin)...the Nine-Tails Foxy Ghost(tm) usually take the form of a woman (may well be a mortal woman before her transformation). She was wronged by a man/men in the past and as a vengeful...

    D&D 3E/3.5 [3.5] Can a Bbn/Drd wield a glaive while wildshaped as a dire ape?

    Yea but would they wield it proficiently considering their unwieldy (from a human's perspective) body composition? Even if mentally you'd know how to wield one...if your body does not support your expertise then it's all phooey. It's the one true peril of the body swaping thief (a good idea...

    elven thin blade

    I am as sure as I can be without the mag in front of me.... ...the elven thin blade is an exotic elven weapon that does 1d8 (18-20/x2) points of damage.

    Why I hate Point-Buy (and D&D 3.0 and beyond)!
