Yeah, there's also mystic wanderer that gives cha to AC, and contemplative with the mysticism domain that gives cha to saves, and witch hunter that gives cha to saves, etc. etc....but I was looking more for the feat ;-) But okay, thanks, now that I have a name perhaps I will have an easier time...

A friend of mine remembers seeing an epic feat in one of the Dragon magazines around the time that the ELH came out that gave Cha to AC, attack, saves, or some combination of those 3, and had some really high prerequisites indicating that the feat was intended for use by bards. Does anyone have...

The problem with the colossus is that a character must virtually be designed to kill it, and otherwise nearly any character will be utterly destroyed unless they're much higher level or very very lucky. Remember that the antimagic field goes out 100 feet, so digging holes beneath it is a no-no...

I don't believe you're listening ;-) Read the class description. Under the forsake magic ability, it states that if a forsaker is tricked into using a magic item or using a spell ability of theirs, they lose their class abilities for a week. Furthermore, if they deliberately use said magic...

Ooh, I get to prove caliban wrong :-D A forsaker would, in fact, not benefit from being 'tricked' into using a magic item by an ally, because regardless of whether they are tricked or not, if they ever benefit from magic, whether wilfully or not, they will lose all of their class abilities for...

For a noncombat (that includes one that doesnt want to turn indead) cleric, it is a pretty excellent prc. The immunities and prestige domains are very nice. Also, (I think) it is the only prc that grants your choice of prestige domain at 1st level. This will of course help a cleric, but where...

There is no interpretation involved in this. They stack, as specifically stated in the description of the forsaker. Until errata is issued for Masters of the Wild (which the FAQ isn't), then this is the way it is.

Actually, although there is nothing mentioned about having a chance of hitting the wrong person in the grapple section, I believe that somewhere in the rules there is a mention of accidentally hitting the wrong person if you're aiming at a square occupied by multiple people. Since you are...

If it were indeed a charisma check, you'd have to have a charisma score of about 90 or so in order to be able to reliably change someone's attitude from hostile to helpful. For reference, that is approximately twice the charisma score of the various goddesses of love that are covered in deities...

Well, the rules already cover how much a "drink" is...I believe (and im not looking at the book right now) that it is defined as "however much you can drink with one move-equivalent action." So really, you shouldn't be able to concentrate the alcohol in order to get the benefit of multiple...

Yikes, I'm surprised I'm the only one here who seems to know this... Even though I've never played a true monk before, and I don't actually have S&F, I'm pretty sure the rule is that if you use both hands to disarm you can treat your hands as a weapon of your size category. So a human gets to...

Grappling works just as Shalewind says it does. To add a little more clarification... "Pinning" doesn't actually mean pinning them to the ground or anything. Visualize it more as a bearhug-type maneuver, where you restrain their limbs and hold them such that they can't do anything but try to...

Monks have the ability to use kamas, etc. for a reason. This reason is significant DR. The monk is mostly a melee class, and yet they have the advantage of not needing to have magical weapons to keep up (their base damage goes up, they get lots of attacks, they can overcome some DR...)...

For some "real life" information on sleep deprivation: http://www.psychiatrictimes.com/p980301b.html I would by no means make people start taking penalties simply for not getting 8 hours in one night. It would have to add up over a few days of not getting 8 full hours. There are also...

There are also sniping rules in Song and Silence, and some other clarifications of hide and such. You might want to check that out.

Actually, I don't think that the monk's AC bonus is ever given a name, I would just classify the DD's AC bonus as 'miscellaneous' that always applies, or as a dodge if someone absolutely needed a type.

They ought to get it. I say this because 'AC Bonus' is a pretty easy heading to comprehend, and doesn't really need much more explaining than that. This is also the case with the monk, where the AC bonus really isn't mentioned a whole lot in the description, and isn't listed as a specific...

There is no way that another attack roll should slow down combat. I notice in my own games that a lot of the time, people do take a long time to make attack rolls, etc. (we have one person who will stand there and recite exactly what he's doing several times, and seriously will take about 30...

It wasn't so much an insult as an observation...it's perfectly reasonable for someone not to know a lot about thievery, and I myself don't claim to know everything, but since I play a lot of thieves and I am interested in confidence schemes and such in real life, I like to think I know a little...

It seems to me that there is very little knowledge about thievery among the posters in this particular thread... First off, There are plenty of people, both now and in the past, who "work" like this, picking pockets and running street scams, for years without getting caught. The fact is that...
