    Staple 1st-level spells for wizards

    I agree with the other posters regarding Mage Armour NOT being all that good. If you really need the AC buy a wand and use pre-combat, otherwise Mirror image-Obscuring Mist-Levitate are better defensive options IMO.

    Has anyone here got E-Z tiles sets? Are they any good? Are they all .pdf or actual paper/card Would you recommend them?

    Standing up and 5 foot step

    Seconded, a 5ft. step can be made before, during or after an action. Standing up is a "Move Action" 5ft. step is a "No Action" Attacking is a "Standard Action" I think the confusion comes from the Movement part. You can't move and take a 5ft. step in the same round. However, if the Movement...

    I had a IT wizard check out my PC after Tiscali told me it was a problem with the Wizards web site (based on the fact I couldn't "ping" the boards-- even though they're internal and therefore unlikely to be "pingable") I contacted Tiscali again and told them to sort it out and they are now...

    Is there a way to access other Servers? I tried going through the main Wizards site to the general message boards but even that didn't work. I can't access any forum, for any game. However I can access every other part of the Wizards site. It's doin' me 'ead in !

    Any idea when the Wizards messageboards are coming back online ? They seem to have been down for ages, does anyone know what going on?

    Why do YOU hate specialization?

    I like the Domain Wizard from Unearthed Arcana, no prohibited schools but one additional spell/level. Although this extra spell has to be from the Domain, the listed Arcane Domain spells are, IMO, better than the hit and miss Divine Domain spell lists.

    Sorcerer with Domain Access (Complete Champion) -- how does this work?

    I think thats a little black and white! If the Domain granted ability is good AND the spells on the Domain list are good (why else would you choose that Domain??) then it could be a very good trade-off. Ususally though, with Domains, some of the spells are better than others but at least for...

    Factotum and bonus spells for high int?

    Yes you are correct! They are not spell casters and therefore do not have a spell list.

    Complex underpowered magic items in Magic Item Compendium

    So the gripe is that you don't like ALL the items....nothing new there then, the DMG has loads of stuff I'd never buy in a million years. MIC is bigger, better and contains new ideas, all of which I wholeheartedly applaud. But be realistic, there will always be chaff and wheat, and items that...

    Why are hit points generated randomly?

    Yeah, we use this system (one over half, as it's refered to), although you can choose to roll if you want. Needless to say D4's, D6's and D8's never roll ! To be fair though, you should use the same system on the monster's hit die too !!

    Alignment - is it any good?

    I think most alignment issues are the DM's fault more than the player's. For example, I was playing a Chaotic Neutral PC in a game where my PC killed a guy the group had captured because before capture he had done some bad things to my character's best friend. My DM noted that my act was...

    Fireball vs Orb - Demonweb Pits Data (no spoilers)

    ...interesting... I think too many people assume the Orbs are broken before they have (as you have done) tested them out. Did you take into accout the +4 to AC that shooting into combat would cause? Or are you assuming Point Blank Shot and Precise Shot were taken and the combat was always...

    Must have 3.5 supplements. . .

    I'd like to throw these into the ring.... Heroes of Horror Sandstorm Frostbite Unearth Arcana Magic Item Compendium Dungeonscape PHB2 is more classes, Feats and info about PC background. Not sure this fits your criteria.
