    Retcon Character question

    Ah, I wish I could XP you Greenfield. "The Bard is Me" twist just made me laugh. Well played, sir, a very "6th sense" conclusion. And congrats on choosing the harder right over the easier wrong. You just climbed a couple more rungs on the respect ladder in my book. :)

    Retcon Character question

    If "some" = Greenfield, then by all means, disallow it. If "some" does not = Greenfield, then consider allowing it. You know your player's intentions better than any of us.....

    Retcon Character question

    This is exactly how I feel about it.

    How a ****ing cantrip exterminates an entire school of magic. NO MORE OF THAT!

    <<Shrug>> I said "for whatever it's worth." If you deem it to be worth nothing, than that is certainly your prerogative. When there is ambiguity in the rules, I find the FAQ to sometimes be a useful clarification. Sometimes it's not worth the paper it's written on. All depends. Of course...

    How a ****ing cantrip exterminates an entire school of magic. NO MORE OF THAT!

    This was addressed in the FAQ, for whatever that's worth. Spending three rounds to pinpoint an invisible creature while hoping that he doesn't move isn't a very efficient strategy, so IMHO there is still plenty of need for the See Invisibility spell (or better yet, glitterdust).

    Looking for an adventure.

    If you decide that Paladin in Hell is to your liking, someone on the Paizo boards did yeoman's work with a conversion to pathfinder rules. It almost looks like a professional product. This could save you a ton of work with the conversion.....again, if this is what you are looking for. Link

    Arcane Necromancy is not Inferior?(The Cleric vs. the Death Master)

    Ironically, this IS a thread on necromancy.

    Bow of True Arrows question

    I had to look it up when I read it in that other thread as well, and had the exact same WTF initial reaction that you did. But I also came to the same conclusion as you, that the casting of the spell would limit you to firing every other round (in the absence extra standard actions), so might...

    Take 20 on Aid Another?

    If the conditions were right (no penalty for failure and all the time in the world), would anyone here really make both characters roll the dice 400 times to give them the success? My god that would suck. I hope you have a lot of cold beer around your table to keep folks occupied.

    Help with an Archer build that doesn't suck...

    And I'm not very good with uber-builds, but maybe consider this for a 6th level start: Scout 3 (take this first to get the skill points), and then either Ranger3 or Ranger2/Cloistered Cleric 1. Either way you use your 5th level feat to grab swift hunter feat. If you go the CC route, try...

    Help with an Archer build that doesn't suck...

    I second swift hunter. I've probably recommended it 10 times on these boards for archer builds. I just find it fun. I will also recommend against OoBI. I understand your point that the precision damage can be useful because scout skirmish damage is limited to the times when you move more...

    Pounce for standard actions?

    Pounce = Charge; Charge = full round action. It seems pretty clear to me too.

    lvl 13 pala = 350 dmg/charge lance

    If you haven't already seen it, take a look at the WoTC website where they still have a functioning index for 3.5 feats and PrCs. I find it invaluable for checking which books certain feats/prcs come from, and I use those bookmarks a lot.

    stop sleight of hand pickpocketing?

    China's surveillance system gives the state a +40 spot check. Better be a lot more skilled than those guys to pull it off.....

    lvl 13 pala = 350 dmg/charge lance

    4x for each. SRD has a good rules breakdown here: multiplying "Sometimes a rule makes you multiply a number or a die roll. As long as you’re applying a single multiplier, multiply the number normally. When two or more multipliers apply to any abstract value (such as a modifier or a die...

    stop sleight of hand pickpocketing?

    First of all, allowing PCs to steal from other PCs is a huge mistake IMHO. It just tends to piss everyone off, and happens to be a pet peeve of mine. Your DM should SERIOUSLY reconsider this policy. In the absence of reconsidering, there should absolutely be a no-tolerance policy among the...

    Make up of Elven Border Patrol

    Completely agree: swift hunters are a thematically and functionally cool combination. Check your math however, since I'm pretty sure that you need to be a minimum Level 5 Character before you can qualify for the feat that makes the combination work (Scout4/Rng1 with Swift Hunter selected as the...

    So I've never Power gamed before.

    Have you considered a Swift Hunter? Pretty good skills and a cool mobility/archer build. If not, here's some more good Archer and Ranger Archer advice.
