    What kind of player are you

    1. Supercoolness 2. Brilliant Planning 4. Story 3. Kicking Butt Brilliant Planning almost won out, but it is still just more gratifying when my character does something awesome spur of the moment, than when I do something awesome, just as planned. I also have to give a nod to Story. It's what...

    Slow fall . . . with wings?

    Well, if you fall down a 5X5ft shaft, you won't have room to use your wings, but should have plenty of surface against which to slow fall. So there you go.

    Clerics: Essential Class or Sacred Cow?

    The campaign in which I play has a Magiocracy that assassinated all the gods 700 years ago. It wasn't a big deal to us, being the rebels who were attempting to resurrect the gods, and having a druid play healer during the interim. However, the DM ran some side games where we play low level...

    What mini-bosses do you love sending at the players?

    Based on that, I'd have to say Monk. Barbarians are great for one fight, they'll be a real problem, but I don't see barbarians running away to come back and harass again. A monk on the other hand, hard to hit, even with touch attacks, mobility to separate the party, stuns to take out the...

    Slashing Fury - PHB II

    I actually spent a lot (I mean A LOT) of time considering this for my 18 level feat. I had already created 4 excel spreadsheets to figure out the best Power Attack amount to use for each individual AC based on my total attack bonus, depending on certain modifiers. I created 4 more to check the...

    Reverse Gravity - Indoors

    Recently a situation came up in our game, and it seemed a little odd to me. We were in a 30 ft wide, 30 ft tall corridor. Stone golems were approaching, the druid cast reverse gravity, capturing 3 of them in the effect. The stone golems were huge. According to the MM, they are 18 ft tall. The...

    Invisibility and Intimidation

    I totally agree, but setting precedent can mean a DM's nightmare.

    Invisibility and Intimidation

    I don't know. The invisible opponent is trapped. The PCs intimidate him. Invisibility is mechanically just a spell that gives certain bonuses. Would you give the same NPC a bonus if he had Mage Armor cast on him? Stone Skin? Mirror Image? The NPC knows each of these spells give him an...

    Squires: What if your armor carried itself around?

    This seems like a highly valuable effect, to me at least. Speaking as a fighter who was ambushed while he was sleeping, supposedly safe in his demiplane, the decision to take 10 minutes to suit up in full plate or join battle ASAP was easy to make but hard to live with. Having a...

    Advice on tactics

    Movement is primary. Getting to or away from your opponent can decide victory and survival. Prepare. Do your homework and plan accordingly. Divine if possible, spy if necessary. Be ready for the unexpected. Know your strengths, exploit their weaknesses. You should have a good idea what your...

    OotS 464

    sadly, she can still be raised, either to life, or unlife. It seems too early for this to be the last of Miko.

    Help twink a Goliath smasher

    I've used Combat Brute from Complete Warrior to great effect with my damage machine. Charge, then next round Power Attack for 5+ and get PAx3 with 2 handed weapons. Sunder an opponent's weapon and get a cleave attack on the wielder. Bull Rush, then next round gain a +1 to attack and damage for...

    Racial Paragon Beyond 3rd level?

    Simply put, how would you expand Racial Paragon beyond 3rd level? Would you go another 3 levels max, or would you go to 9 or 10? Adding spell level progression in the same vein as the first 3 levels seems obvious. BAB, saves and Hit Die should remain consistent as well. But what about the...

    How to end the world?

    I personally liked the season finale of Angel. (The Spin-off of Buffy the Vampire slayer) After taking out the Lieutenants of the horrible demons from another dimension, some of the crew are dead, most are at least wounded. They gather together to prepare for the inevitable retaliation. As...

    Creative Use of Low-level Magic.

    I've used Dancing Lights in concert with Intimidate checks to scare away attackers, less they be destroyed by my "Spectral Guard". I imagine a bluff check could also work.
