    Questionalbe Home-Brew Feat - Opinions Please.

    Here's a suggestion: Instead of removing spells from the list, specify which spells are okay. The problem is that if you just remove the from the list, the player will be able to show up with the newest 3rd party book and pick the equivalent cantrip. If you limit it to specified 0-level...

    Bashing Shield

    Vorpal's not the important part, it was just the fastest way to an item with a total +20 Enhancement bonus. --G

    He's dead, Jim!

    Ooh, ooh, or an elven archer cleric! Why not play a psion/psy war/wilder? --G

    Bashing Shield

    So here's my question: How does the normal +10 max bonus apply to shields? Does it permit a +5 (attack and damage)/+5 Shield Bonus Large Metal Shield or does it permit a +5 Vorpal Bashing Arrow Catching Shield of Moderate Fortification +5. That hurts my brain. --G

    Combat expertise and power attack

    In case you missed it, you can use both feats, but the penalties stack. --G

    Brilliant Energy Weapons - Ignore Shields?

    Except of course that force, of course, is not matter. --G

    Net Question

    I have no net answers, only gross ones. :D That said, you should be able to destroy the net by use of a slashing or piercing weapon doing more damage than it has hitpoints. Nets aren't the most useful weapons in D&D. --G

    Ebberlance

    I sure hope that's not true since Keith is busy writing his Eberron novel! I'd hope that his first novel will be excellent. --G

    Gestalt Characters from a DM point of View

    How about a Ranger/Druid? One of my players is really interested in going this route. --G

    Update: Malhavoc PDFs no longer available at RPGnow (merged)

    While I agree with your point that intellectual property is still property and that the theft of it is wrong, your analogy is fundamentally flawed. When you have your TV set in your home, the manufacturer no longer has possession and control of it. When I break in and steal it, you no longer...

    Do you USE/HATE DM Management Software?

    I love E-tools. It's incredibly easy to use and now (after the 1.5 patch) has 90% of the functionality I want. I have yet to find a program that does everything I'd like, and I'm okay with that. I use E-tools and word before every game and it makes monster creation go incredibly smoothly. --G

    I need help BADD

    Unfortunately, my build above won't work. Dragons no longer have blindsight, only blindsense. However, there's no reason the tactics above won't work. Instead of using darkness, strike improved unarmed strike and stunning fist from its feats and give it leadership and maximize breath...

    I need help BADD

    Here's some quick advice before work: Dragons are natural sorcerors. Make sure yours has True Strike. Also, make sure your dragon has power attack. Few things let a wizard know you care like a true-striking, power attacking, dragon bite for 2d8+26. Take the time to roll up the dragon like...

    What's the deal with half-orcs?

    Would that be a dwork? Unless you're playing in a party with a half-orc monk (brother), a tiefling sorceror (brother), and an aasimar paladin (sister). Dad got around a whole lot! --G

    Flat-Footed and Dex Penalty ?!?

    I remember reading an answer to this a long time ago. I can't remember my source, so, for all intents and purposes you're just going to have to take my word on it. The rule says you don't add your dex bonus to your AC when flat-footed. If you have a low dex, you don't have a dex bonus, you...

    Which was your favorite setting from TSR/WotC?

    You forgot Ghostwalk, one of the coolest and most underrated settings ever. Due to your oversight, I was forced to vote for planescape. --G

    Piratecat's Official Drink???

    Actually, Skeleteens sodas have been around for quite a while. I remember drinking Brainwash as a lowly freshman in college. That stuff was like jet fuel! A bottle or two and finals were easy because the need for sleep was eliminated. They specialized in highly caffinated herbal sodas, and...

    Voluntary Failing of a Saving Throw [BobRoe Stay OUT!]

    Another alternative was recently discussed on the Wizard's Website. Check this link for an article on "double-agent weaponry." http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/re/20040301a Here's how it works. Send a moderately competent assassin after the party. Arm said assassin with a decently...
