SA Difficulties are set as follows In the section "Calculating Saving Throw DC's" 10 + 1/2 hd + stat mod + bonuses 10 + 8 + 5 + 2 Insane chicken :)

Using the Monster Advancement rules in the [3.5] Monster Manual the HD goes from 6-8 (small) and 9-15 (medium), to make the Cockatrice Large it would need to be at least 16 hd. So following the progression rules here is what I came up with Cockatrice, Large Magical Beast, CR: 10, HD 16d10+83...

PHB differs from the SRD EMPOWER SPELL [METAMAGIC] Benefit: All variable, numeric effects of an empowered spell are increased by one-half. Saving throws and opposed rolls are not affected, nor are spells without random variables. An empowered spell uses up a spell slot two levels higher than...

Can I empower a dispel magic so the effect would be (d20+ min(caster level,10)) * 1.5 so would be like (d20+10)*1.5 so like a max of 45 instead of 30?

It is good if the party goes from battle to battle, with little in between. Items which perform the action are much more useful now. We have house ruled it to last for 10 mins/level instead. Works alright. Plus you do not get it dispelled the first round of combat either. Having a set value...

So what do you guys think of this beneficial/cursed weapon? Executioner’s Axe: This uniquely crafted weapon, etched with deep runes and grooves radiates strong magic. You feel the axe pulse with power as you handle it. This custom Greataxe has a larger head than normal making it seem unwieldy...

Invisibility and Flanking If an invisibile wizard is attempting to help the rogue flank. Only the Wizard will receive a flanking bonus when attacking. Because the opponent is unable to target the wizard without extrordanary means (scent) etc. they are not considered flanked because it is not...

Suggestions for Enhancing Role Playing Sit down and talk with all the players. Have them write up a history about their character, why and how they became that profession, some events that occured before they started adventuring. If you are dungeon mastering them then start offering...

Under the Animate Dead Spell, the caster automatically has control of the Skeletons and Zombies he creates. He/She is capable of controlling 4 HD / level of those types of undead. Using the Core rules, how does a Wizard/Sorcerer control the greater undead?

Here is a different way to handle it Whenever the customer does one of these "foot in mouth" comments have the character roll a diplomacy / intimidate / charisma check. Just because players are unable to articulate things, does not mean that the characters are not.

Not all wands activate the same, the activation word could be different for each wand of magic missile. Identify (wands) will tell you the spell in the wand, the number of charges, and the activation word.

My Nickname is funny My players call me Slaughter McSlaughter. :) Just because I killed two low level party members. These were second level characters, they had met a bunch of orcs. The cleric cast shockwave and knocked one of the orcs down. The wizard being all smart walked up to the fallen...

How about this? According to the Designing a Trap section in the DMG it is +1 per 7 points of average damage per round so it works out to be around CR 21 Owch. Base Magic Trap: CR 1 Average Damage (Calculates the +CR). 1: 2 +0 2: 5 +1 3: 8 +1 4: 10 +1 5: 13 +2 6: 15 +2 7: 18 +3 8: 20 +3 9: 23...

That conversion does not take into account this bldg Unfortunately that conversion does not take into account that building. Does not have any specs on it. :) I am using some information from that conversion.

I am in the process of Converting Dungeonland from 1st Edition to 3.5. So far it has not been going too poorly, and actually has been quite interesting and helping me build stat blocks for monsters quicker and faster. I have also been beefing up some of the monsters as my characters are all...

That is true The text from the DMG is: If no spells are included in the prerequisites, use the following default guidelines. It does not say that they are requirements :)
