    How to punish a metagamer?

    My issues with this: Charm Person: as has been said, realizing you were charmed would ruin charm, so a failed saving throw would mean you are charmed and do not realize it. Now, if someone later said "that guy controlled you" that is another story Loot: they were pipes, and the fighter would...

    Monks and sleep/meditation

    8 hours meditation = 8 hours rest for a monk (probally not anyone else) other wise you have 16 hours a day of inactive charracter, which would be no fun at all, worse then the 15 minute adventuring day i feel there is also that or in there between rest and meditation, meaning you could just...

    Barbarian's Knockdown and Charge

    RAW, no Charge only bonuses a bull rush (and a normal attack) and knockdown is a trip attempt. This means the barbarian would get a bonus fro things like improved trip but not from improved bull rush The DM could house rule it to work together in favor of flavor though

    How not to metagame as a dm?

    how are you metagaming to their actions they are planning their actions, and if they were not meta gaming themselves, they would be communicating this to each other in game and an observing enemy could figure out "hey, that cleric was just told to heal the fighter, quick, kill the fighter...

    Does anyone grow their characters organically anymore?

    I do a bit of both currently I am creating an alchemist who is "going" feral in essence, he is going wild, and his mutagen already represent that (feral mutagen discovery) I know that he will eventually be spending more time in mutagen form then out of it, and I need the master chemist to...

    My Path to Arcane Archer

    if you get the chance to do this again (another LPF game or another game) I recommend you take magus all the way through you would need 8 levels of magus then your 9th would be AA as for your current idea, I would say ranger 6. you can gain weapon specialization via EK and then PBM

    Best use of Reach Weapons

    while yes, you would get an attack if someone came to attack you, 5ft steps get around that. the best uses of reach weapons are attacking over a buddy, mounted combat and greater cleaving is a massive horde. they are good when mounted because you can reach around your mount and hit enemy...

    Gaining a level, stay rogue or multiclass into monk.

    actually, a common level dip for a rouge is druid for a flanking buddy (velociraptor is best) monk with a dip for rogue is not a bad idea. but the other way around is so so. (Hungery Ghost Archtype works well) Fighter or Ranger are good for a 1 level dip, but only if you need new weapon...

    Which Rogue talent to take first?

    first off, the only arcane spell caster without mage hand is the witch secondly, detect magic is somewhat more useful as you can use it to find magical traps. Also, vanish is better as a major magic choice. Invisible for up to 5 rounds. thirdly, he will need to multiclass to get the required...

    Dual Shield Ranger build help

    First, Not trying to rain on your parade cause I like the idea. Second, it kinda is so outlandish irl. Think how many times you have seen someone clobbered with 2 shield? in movies? in shows? Only time I can think of anyone using 2 shields in a show I watched was when Samurai Jack used 2...

    Full Ranger Animal Companion list

    RAW in the bestiary 1: By this, I would take it to mean any animal in this book with stats for an animal companion are available to both a druid and a ranger (along with any one else who can get a companion, should more people be able to do that down the line)

    Archery Character - Ranger or Fighter?

    for sheer "shot the fly out from between it's wings" the fighter wins. More feats means more bonuses faster. If you wanna do anything else and archery, ranger wins, especially in the wild where they can get food for the party Gravity Bow also helps with leveling between ranger and fighter (my...

    Building a good wizard?

    well, for stats, on a 20 point buy, I would go something like this STR: 8 DEX: 14 CON: 14 INT: 16 WIS: 10 CHA: 12 if you go elf, just add on top of those stats, for a human, add to INT. Same for half elf and half orc Gnome: Cha 10+2(racial) Con 12+2(racial) Str 8-2(racial) Dex 16 reverse con...

    Mounted Grapple

    A 1) I do not see any rules saying your mount can not grapple while you are mounted. That said, unless you have an exotic military saddle, I would imagine you would find penalties to anything you try to do (Concentration, attacks, skills...) A 1.1) While I would say you do not need a check to...

    Suggestions for a new DM?

    while I have never played at epic level, It feels like, at level 20, there is nothing to challange you on this plane (material) Planar travel seems like a good way to challange the PC, exchange the orc tribe in Paradox's example for say, a demon horde, and maybe the battle is a bit harder...

    Building a good wizard?

    I never use divination (except detect magic, and that is a 0 level, you get 5 max of those.... your choice there) As for Illusion, invisibility (and its bigger and little brothers) live there. Nice spells but not *needed* for a good blaster. but it can be a bit of a pain when you get ambushed...
