    Brewing potions question

    If you don't like shield, make a potion of Tenser's Transformation and give it to a fighter to drink. That's unbalancing! But nice to imagine...

    Non-spellcasting priests?

    Actually, KDLadage is doing something very similar in his Umbragia setting right now. The non-spellcasting cleric will be called 'Presbyter' and will appear in the book 'Liber Vulgaris', which is to come up just in the next weeks. Umbragia Setting

    Spell Focus? Is it worth it?

    ??? It is exactly 10%. Also in your example. 17 needed <=> P(save) = 20% <=> P(fail) = 80% 19 needed <=> P(save) = 10% <=> P(fail) = 90% 21 needed <=> P(save) = 5% <=> P(fail) = 95% (if 20 always success)

    Feat for Multi-Class casters!

    Hey, that would make a good domain for the extraordinary cleric. The Eat and Drink domain. With 'Culinary Fireball' as a 3rd level spell. With that, one could also include the conjuration of millions of fishes and rolls Jesus once did as a first level spell.

    Spell Focus? Is it worth it?

    Playing Ultimate Frisbee. But now as you say it... :o One should not shrink images without having a deeper look at the result. On the other hand, the name of our Ultimate Frisbee Team is Fabulous Ultimate Club Kaiserslautern. So the abbreviation fits...

    Spell Focus? Is it worth it?

    I'm playing a bard with lots of enchantment spells and my experience that spell focus (enchantment) is definitely one of the best feats to take. The +10% really make a difference, and as you already said, for all the Charms, Dominates, Sleeps and Suggestions there is mostly only one try...

    Feat for Multi-Class casters!

    But to post something reasonable: I have a hard time imagining how this should work technically with one class which prepares their spells (wiz,clr,...) and another one that casts spontaneously (sor,brd,...).

    Intimidate Skill?

    How many rogues have Cha 18 ?! Why would a rogue waste a feat for skill focus intimidate ?! Intimitate is not that useful as a skill, since a person intimidated will not do anything you want it to - conversely, the person will eventually avoid you, while when using the diplomacy skill it would...

    What is the 2nd most important attribute for a cheeseburger

    I voted for Intelligence. The best cheeseburger in definately the May Gyver. The first burger than can escape from its own box. Great!

    What movie is this line from! (Some Movie Spoilers)

    Hey, posting works again! That's from Toystory II. Definitely. And this one is from Warcraft III. Hey, by the way, where are these from: :D "She's a witch. Shall we burn it?" "This is my boomstick." "My favorite color is blue, no yeloooooooooo..." "I never say Nee."

    Spell: Leaf Bombardment

    Hey, posting works again I like the flavor of the spell, but essentially it is yet another damage spell of the type 1d6 resp. 1d8 (maximum y) per caster level. IMHO there are already too much of that type in D&D. Why not having something along these lines for the damage: 10 leaves per 2...

    Whats the 2nd most important attrib for a Bard?

    Whats the 2nd most important attrib for a Bard?

    In my experience bards qualify for two typical types: 1. Social skills: Being spokesman, diplomate, great performer, influence people, having lots of enchantment spells 2. Good archer: Having archer feats (perhaps some fighter levels), having a lot of buffing spells (e.g. expedious retreat...

    Reading a scroll while invisible?

    Noone mentioned the possibility to see the outlines of an invisible creature/object by a good spot check. Depending on how exactly you interpret this to work you could certainly give good arguments why a person could certainly 'see' (in the sense of spot, which has to be defined in more detail)...

    "Keeping" feats?

    Is there any precise ruling if the prerequisites for a feat mean... 1. Only if you fulfill them, you can take the feat or 2. You can take any feat anytime, but it is only active/you can only use it, if you fulfill the prerequisites?

    4 limbed and two handed weapons

    The whole issue depends on how the 4-armed monster looks like precisely. Is that defined somewhere? E.g. I could very well imagine a person that has two front sides, i.e. two faces on each side and two arms on each side. This person could certainly fight with two greatswords without having...

    Charm Person

    Ich the charmer finds clever enough arguments, he could certainly convince his new friend that he should better fight this person, who he thought was his friend before. IMHO a DM should certainly allow this to happen (nice from a role playing position). The main problem with charm person in...
