Grappling with natural weapons, specifically a werewolverine with natural claw attacks engaged in a grapple. 1. Do they make regular grapple checks to deal real damage with the claw attack? Are they then able to make itinerant claw attacks? If they are not, how do you handle a claw claw bite...

We found Ghostform to be incredibly powerful. We never specifially ruled it overpowering, but it skirts the line remarkably close any which way you look at it. Use with care, and don't be afraid to use it against the PCs too. It's one of the first spells that really forces occasional dispel...

So I'm going to dance the fine line here Gary and ask another of the challenging questions... What changes do you see in Greyhawk now that you don't think fit necessarily with the early view you had of the world? So much discussion has been thrown around about the Greyhawk Wars, From the...

*Laughs* Gez actually the title is archaic, dates years ago when Eric ran the boards, probably more than a few who could claim it from me these days. I've been a forgotten name since the pantheon left. This guy is going to be a fun one or two shot addition to our party, frankly fire magic is...

Well the purpose behind the character is actually that he's going to be a one adventure backup for our party which lacks a wizard. He's our fire support basically, and the DM gave me the go to make him twinky as hell since what we're fighting is going to be tough, and this guy won't be around...

Opinions and any applicable rules wanted. Considering a fire elementalist using Cali:):):):)e Elementalist: Fire (RoF), Bloodline of Fire (FRCS), Genie Lore (RoF), Elemental Savant Fire PrC (T&B), Cali:):):):)e Human Sorcerer, Elemental Substitution Fire (T&B), Greater Spell Focus: Evocation...

At best, this is a poor man's haste, and again at +3 its crap.

Magic of Faerun I believe. 6-7th Tymora spell. Going from pure memory though.

Combat Reflexes [General] Benefit: When foes leave themselves open, the character may make a number of additional attacks of opportunity equal to the character's Dexterity modifier. The character still may only make one attack of opportunity per enemy. The character may also make attacks of...

I think what the Sage meant here was this: a Longspear made for a Noble Salamander is a Huge weapon with a 15' reach, as if you'd made a longspear one size larger, so in the hands of the Salamander it's then 20'. That's an assumption though of what he meant. Another fine batch of logical...

Heh yeah that too Mr. Smarmy pants! :p

We ran Flaming Sphere that it only damages when it first impacts a creature. Although the issue did come up in our group about the damage, our logic was based on the simple fact it had such a long duration and good damage (even though it's reflex none), that the only way to keep it in line with...

If it was a 30ft disk, tilted 45 degrees, with a hole in the center like in my ring analogy, that would explain perfectly why it gives one half cover. If it was one solid mass of blades, it would give full cover, at the very least from any attack attempting to pass through, arrows would be...

IIRC they are considered unproficient with the armor, and therefore take penalties, as well as gain advantages. The skeleton template from the WotC site actually lets them remember and keep some of their proficiencies, so you could probably use that, or make a simliar one for zombies.

Hyp agreed with that, if you move at all, even a 5' step, within the plane of a blade barrier you take damage. If you don't move at all, and took damage the first round in a blade barrier, if you stand stock still successive rounds, you don't take damage after the first round. Any other type...

The cleric in question actually found and wanted to use a Holy Sword, hence asking for him here. Generally speaking I agree, exclusive should be exclusive, but it's still nice to have the option should it ever come up.

There is a prescedence set for the same enchantment not stacking more than once even if it gives an unnamed bonus. If you could stack the same enchantment more than once if it didn't give a bonus, for example Etheralness more than once. But if there were two different enchantments that gave...

Fire damage is not listed as a bonus type either though, it could reasonably assumed that it is an unnamed bonus (fire is an elemental descriptor, not a type of bonus), so it's still up for interpretation.

A hedge mage is the usual stereotype associated with the wizard who only has a few powers and makes trinkets in the local village, very like the concept of the adept. He's basically a backwater mage. It was also a kit from the book of Humanoids in 2e with the same concept, although the term...

Slow counters and dispels haste. Does this mean no save or SR is checked? For example, Cleric with Haste up from a potion. Bard casts slow off a scroll onto Cleric after he's drank the potion and it's activated. Does the cleric get SR? A Save? Does the Slow bypass those two and just dispel...
