Does a Flame Burst weapon deal 1d6 fire damage on each non-critical hit? The text of Flame Burst states that ait functions as a flaming weapon that also explodes with flame upon striking a successful critical hit. We've been playing that a Flame Burst weapon also acts as a flaming, but then why...

Several of the guys I game with and I are trying to determing how familiar a Shifter must be with a creature before he's allowed to change into one. So far there's a pretty big gap in what people think it means. It ranges from seen once, studied for an hour, to studying a creature for several...

Why not an "average" Half-Dragon/Half-Human? Half-Elf/Half-Human are permissable. Sorry, I missed the Sages ruling. Any official errata on the subject? Dwarmaj

Just downloaded it, it works great for weapon wielders. How would I input a creature that uses natural attacks (claw/claw/bite)? Dwarmaj

Bump... :D As long as the Shifter has seen/studied an individual templated creature I don't see what prevents him from assuming a particular form that he has access to within size and type limitations. Thoughts appreciated... Dwarmaj

Say a Druid is 5' from an opponant and wildshapes into a Dire Bear and expands into the opponants space. 1) Would you treat it as a Bull Rushed or Trample? 2) Would the opponant get an AoO? 3) How much damage if any would they take? 4) What if the druid was flying overhead as an owl, shape...

What is the hit dice limit on Multi-Classed Druids? Is it based on Druid caster level or total character Hit Dice? A Druid 2/ Fighter 10, 2 hit dice companion isn't going to last very long if it's based on caster level. Dwarmaj

Can Shifters change into Template creatures? I don't see anything in the description of Greater Wildshape that would prevent it. Looking at the decription of a Half-Dragon in the Monster Manual, it has a type of Large Dragon, which a Shifter can change into. Thoughts... Dwarmaj

I'm trying to figure out how many points I can put into a particular skill. Max Ranks for a class skill is (Level+3) Max Ranks for a cross class skill is (Level+3)/2 For multiclassed characters a skill is a class skill (for determining max rank) if either class has it as a class skill...

Thanks for the quick reply. I was thinking that the Vampires Fast Healing would be a great Ex ability to pick up (if Templates are allowed). Dwarmaj

1) Each use of Greater Wildshape heals the character as if they rested for a day, does this mean that a 10th level Shifter (who can use GW each round) can cure themselves of all damage in a few rounds? 2) I read somewhere that Template creatures can't be used to shapechange into, is that...

Transmuters are nice but... Why not take advantage of the benifits of being an Elemental Savant? The class gives you increased Elemental Focus and Penetration which stacks with Spell Focus/Penetration and Greater Spell Focus/Penetration. Load up on Evocation spells and use your Energy...

1) Does a Slow spell automaticly cancel a haste on a creature or must the Will save fail? 2) Does a Slow spell suppress a haste (become hasted again once the Slow expires) or cancel it? If it's suppressed, can another haste be activated to allow the creature to be hasted again? Dwarmaj

Can spells that require mental control be used through a Wall of Force? Example: A wizard cast flaming shpere and rolls it 20'. A wall of force is then placed 5' away, can the wizard still control the shpere that is on the other side of the wall? Could a wizard cast a spell, like Summon...

It still feels wrong to me... If the Mind Flayer was using a Supernatural or some other magical ability to remove a brain, then I could see them getting around DR. However, the Mind Flayer is physically incappable of getting past 10/+1 DR, how can it use it's tentacles to rip open an...

I agree they can grapple, but... I agree that DR doesn't give immunity to grappling, but how can the Illithid perform the extraction if it can't get through the DR? :( My take on it was that the Illithid used it's tentacles to pry open the skull and remove the brain. Since Illithids don't...

Would an Illithid be able to perform brain extraction if it can't get through Damage Reduction? The tentacles do 1d4+1, would each tentacle have to beat DR or would the combined attached tentacles have to beat the DR? Dwarmaj

I like the Elemental Savant (Air) This will give your character resistance to lightning and increased DCs and Penetration with your lightning spells. The other benifits of the class are well worth it as well immunities (poison, stunning, and criticals) and Darkvision. I went the Sorcerer route...

Ghostform is the way to go... Hehe, I prefer Ghostform + Mirror Image. Raining death from above while flying through solid objects is the only way to go. You still have the 50% miss chance, but get protection from non-magical weapons and many spells. Dwarmaj

For a Cloak of Improved Invisibility I calculated the following costs. Unlimited Imp Invis would be 4*7*2000gp=56,000 4x per day = 44,800 3xper day = 33,600 2xper day = 22,400 1xper day = 11,200 Each use would last 7 minutes. (Should the unlimited version cost a bit more, seems pretty...
