If you are pinned the only option (137PH) is to make an opposed Grapple check...to ESCAPE the pin. That is it. If you are being grappled (but not pinned) you may "attack and do other things" (137-8 PH). When they say you are not 'Helpless' they are saying that you can't CDG him. Oh! Back to...

I am going to be playing a Sorcerer Rogue in an upcoming campaign. I plan on going into Arcane Trickster. I have not played a caster in 3E and I am worried about choosing a wrong spell with the Sorcerer. (You can't 'forget' a spell correct?) I need help with spell selection. What spells...

I am going to play a Rogue/Sorcerer in an upcoming game. I plan on going into Arcane Trickster later on. I have not played a caster in 3E. I am wary of the Sorcerers limited access to spells and the permanent nature of learning a spell. I do like the freedom of choosing what spell to cast...

I carry a Bow just for those occasions. ;) I used a Kama and a Staff when I first started, but have not used a weapon in ages. I do a d12 with my hands, there is no reason to use a weapon under normal circumstances. I just had a staff made from the bones of a Shadow Dragon, but it is going in...

Yes. Once you pick up a non-monk weapon, you are no longer fighting 'Unarmed' and loose all of the Monk abilities associated with fighting unarmed. If you are planning on going this route, I would suggest dropping Monk after a couple of levels (4?) and going Fighter. You would be doing a nice...

There is NO reason for Craft Ring to be a 12th level feat. As I pointed out in another thread, you can do the same thing with a Cloak of Invisibility or a Sword of Invisibility. The balance of a Command Activated/Use Activated item vs a Spell Completion item is figured into the cost. If I am...

Look at 'Burn' under the Fire Elementals description. There is no need to 'rule' anything. The details are already there. Magic Fang and Greater Magic Fang will function as well as weapon enhancements. SnF has a Ring of Magic Fang and Amulets of Mighty Fist with these spells in them. They...

My DM said 'No.' to an Amulet of Greater Magic Fang when we only had CWI as a feat. A few months later SnF comes out and looky there: Amulet of Mighty Fists with CWI the only feat needed. The more books (from WotC even) that come out the more the line is going to blur. <shrug> Astlin

Re: Re: A few questions that have came up.. (Quicken, Darkvision, Command) Um, not sure about you but that is going to take me longer than a round. :p Astlin

My take on Command. If told to Run you will start moving at 4x your base move. You may perform any free action that does not keep you from running. You may run in any direction. If told to Stop you will stop whatever action you have been doing. If you are attacking, you will not be able to...

This has had to have been asked before but: Why? Craft Wondrous Item can be taken at 3rd, Forge Ring can't be taken until 12th. What is it about rings that make them impossible for a 3rd level character to make? Ring of Feather Fall? That is craftable by a first level caster but requires a...

It could get really expensive enhancing both heads of a double weapon, especially if you're giving each head different enhancments. Yep and it is also really expensive to enchant 2 weapons. ;) Astlin

No. You select the AoE target (space) just as you would a MMs target (person). What you do not have complete control over is how it gets there. Thus the roll to hit in the instance quoted. That was fun though! What I really miss are the bouncy lightning bolts. LB pool was one of my...

Several more options. Shunted (see blink): You are forced to the nearest space able to fit you. You take 1d6 damage per 5' traveled. If the nearest space is above your opponents you take the damage for the movement. If you are now 3+ sizes more than your opponents you do a Crush attack (see...

Yep, hard to read and close to useless. I also found that the errors from the core books are still in the SRD. :rolleyes: Astlin:

Hmm, the good old Antimagic Field will do the trick. As incorporeal undead they will 'wink out' in an antimagic field and reappear once the field goes away. PH pg175 Astlin

Don't forget about gear I mean treasure. :cool: A CR25 Dragon has a minimum of 18 magic items in its horde (pg171 DMG). :D Hmm, isn't a CR25 Red Dragon going to have 100HD? 1CR=50% increase, 5CR=250% or is there some other rule for this? If it is 100HD then: 1,650HP (remember neg energy...
