    Psionics: Balance and Integration

    As the Psi 14 (shaper) in question, I didn't fare so well against those faceless animated statues.. *grumble*.. though I think I should have used Crystalstorm.. I *think* that would have worked.. still, I wasn't that high on PP at that point..

    Behold! Yet Another Broken Psionic Power

    It's worth saying that even if you're not a shaper, you can get the power by burning a feat (Expanded Knowledge), so for a non-shaper, level 7 for the non-mass version, and level 15 for the mass version. The same as a Wizard actually..

    Eaglesford Campaign: "Strange Lights"

    Some stuff happened.. poor Torsten is feeling like a ping-pong ball.. but I won't spoil the surprise.. it's a long way (mentally) from the farm where he grew up though, let me tell you.. :)

    Actual Snake Oil?

    How odd.. I don't use oil anywhere on MY snake, and it stays supple enough.. ;)

    Heh! Torsten's *actual* quote was: "I thought it smelled bad.. on the outside! *laughs*

    Eaglesford Campaign: "Strange Lights"

    Torsten thinks back on his recent past.. the events which had so changed his life and caused him to end up the company of this diverse group of folk.. They had come with overwhelming force, in the middle of the night, using their huge greatswords like threshing scythes, cutting down groggy...

    Any gamers in the Cedar Rapids area?

    Thanks! :) If you and the others hadn't had those teleports last session, that dragon woulda had some "snacks".. heh heh.. (and, y'know, Dragonomicon DOES have some neat stuff in it!!!) Heh, you'll see just how rusty you are when you DM next session, now that I've converted my psion to...

    Any gamers in the Cedar Rapids area?

    Heya! I'm in Cedar Rapids, and while I'm already in a weekly game here (well, actually two twice-per-month games), and would be amenable to joining an additional game.. If people want to try and figure out something, send me an email at greggm2000 at yahoo dot com, and perhaps something can be...

    DrSpunj's Class Balance Spreadsheet

    While it is the way it is in AU, I'm not sure that dividing weapons into all those groups really makes sense. I think in a lot of ways there's far too many categories making things needlessly complex, so perhaps you could combine some of those categories. I do think also that the "basic"...

    Can Web be cast amongst trees?

    *laughs* Ok, ok.. you've persuaded me.. I'm still not sure that given the description of the spell that there'd be enough webs in any particular square to impede movement, when cast in a forest.. but I'm willing to allow it given your persuasive arguments.. 'course, fair game for your...

    Can Web be cast amongst trees?

    Problem was, we/I didn't really get that specific.. partly because it was a random wilderness encounter, and I hadn't thought such details through (but this thread helps!).. basically, we just were treating the terrain as a flat plain, even though there were technically trees around.. I think I...

    Can Web be cast amongst trees?

    Sure, I can see a vertical section of web between two trees of almost any width of tree, but a cube 40' on a side? I think not without a lot of thickly packed trees.. (which would impede movement and seriously limit viewable distance through said trees, neither of which applied).. ttyl, Videssian

    Can Web be cast amongst trees?

    Aww, thanks!.. :) Being the DM in question, my take on it is based on the following excerpt from the spell description: ".. these masses must be anchored by two or more solid and diametrically opposed points - floor and cieling, opposite walls, or the like.." What I see here from the examples...

    Expanded Psionics Handbook: Is it good?

    I agree.. it's a great book.. definitely worth the purchase, even if I couldn't wait for amazon and so paid extra for it! :) (Now, the trick is trying to figure out how to convince my current psionics-averse main DM and my soon to be varient D&D DM that psions really are just sorcerers the...

    DrSpunj's Class Balance Spreadsheet

    If you mean would I be willing to generate a character using the values/spreadsheet that you've created as a basis for it, and play it in a game that you're running, sure! (otherwise I'm misunderstanding what you mean) The values seem reasonable to me.. ttyl, Videssian

    DrSpunj's Class Balance Spreadsheet

    Some miscellaneous thoughts: Are you planning on incorporating Psionics at all in your campaign? If so, I'd like to see entries in your spreadsheet for the classes in the Expanded Psionics Handbook (when you have it in your hands; mine's on order).. Are you planning on incorporating anything...
