    UA Recharge Magic, Years Later (vs Warlock, et. al.)

    I've used Recharge magic from UA before, and we tempered it then by adding in a Vitality aspect, so that eventually my wizard would run out of steam. Does it seem as outlandish as it once did now that classes like the Warlock or whomever with 'At Will' or 'Always On' abilities can "go all day"...

    Same race favored enemy

    I run a human-only campaign, so I do it with a lot of my mooks, who all seem to have Favored Enemy (Human). Fighter1/Ranger1, Fighter2/Ranger1 (since as thog teaches us, Fighter level 3 is dumb level). I still get full BAB, the possible -2 HP doesn't matter much, but I do get that nice +2...

    Swift Concentration (C. Scoundrel), Call Lightning

    One of my players asked me such: Does Swift Concentration from Complete Scoundrel (allowing you to concentrate on a spell as a swift action) apply to the druid spell Call Lightning? The text of Call Lightning says: Concentration on any other spell which requires it is also a standard action...

    What's the Best Fix for Power Attack?

    I'd like to see it switched out with +Xd6 (or whatever) damage for some given ratio of BAB lost, or the static version in the poll above. One, it's more in line with the other "extra damage" mechanics like Sneak Attack. Two, it's easier to turn into a general maneuver that way (a special...

    Alienist (from Complete Arcane) - worth it ?

    The modified Alienist we use eschews toughness (because it's screamingly lame) and instead gets DR 1/- and DR 2/-. Dunno if that helps out any or not, since I never got into melee :) That's only 1/day though. Still better off just casting it yourself. Eh. I'd love to see the Summons reworked...

    Alienist (from Complete Arcane) - worth it ?

    It's good. Our group has a slightly modified version that's been used, and I've both played and am now running one as DM. Cast SM 4 (I think it's 4), gain 1d3 Psuedo Dire Weasels from the SM3 list. They all merge on one target, True Strike to hit, and are now attached. Next round, any...

    What are the top 10 elements of a Conan adventure?

    True. But, as a result it became a part of the genre, so. (and those were more tongue-in-cheek entries than anything else) Yep. Imagine that whatever civilization you're adventuring in/through, it's always inching ever nearer a Roman-style collapse, from within or without. Koewn

    What are the top 10 elements of a Conan adventure?

    Heh. 1) Evil magic 2) Some sort of monster or embodied god 2.5) Power hungry, evil, or just mad humans. 3) Treasure 4) An all or mostly naked woman or women 5) A culture not the barbarian's own 6) An exotic location 7) Sailing a road of blood and slaughter 8) All or mostly naked women. 9)...

    Druid with Spirit Shaman casting

    I've been talking about the Spirit Shaman with a player, and how it fits with his concept. (and the world; the "Spirit" powers don't seem as universally useful at first glance) Assuming that SS Casting == Sorc Casting == Druid Casting, replacing the Druid casting with the Spirit Shaman system...

    Feats to rules

    True, but if you're going to add one, may as well add the other. Quick Draw should also be a "if you have enough BAB" maneuver. An extension of the "draw weapon as a free action as part of a move action with +1 BAB". Koewn

    Feats to rules

    Honestly, and I haven't thought out any implications for it, but Power Attack/Combat Expertise should be a combat option for those with enough BAB. (+5?) Koewn

    [XRP]Holiday Sale!

    Could be. If we go through the list like such (where smaller numbers equate to larger scope) 3) Trade between areas (Silk Road) 2) Running of a kingdom (West. Europe) 1) Building a world (Ecology+Culture) then we could have either: 0) Magical Medieval Society: Cosmology and Legends (religion...

    [XRP]Holiday Sale!

    And that's what I did (ordered before the answer came back). Got here today, just in time for Christmas perusals! Thanks much! Any hint on what's upcoming next in the Magical Medieval line? Koewn

    [XRP]Holiday Sale!

    Silly question - is the Liber included when packing, or should we add it in to the purchasing cart with the rest of the loot?

    Oddest class combination in a party?

    I forgot to say the Wizard class was specialized Enchanter. Yea, he does good. He pals around with a single-class Rogue cohort, and they work together. It wouldn't work in all campaigns, but there's some things going for him that help out: 1) We spend a lot of time talking, when it's not a...

    Oddest class combination in a party?

    Barbarian 8 (going into a modified Elemental Warrior from PlanarHbook, Fire.) Monk 5/Drunken Master 3 (specialized in Diplomacy. He has Profession(Diplomat), even.) And... Fighter 1/Wizard 1/Cleric 3/Rogue 2/Human Paragon 1, a party all unto himself, eventually taking some Mystic Theurge...

    LA +1 Humans, Elves, Dwarves, etc

    I poked around at that some time ago: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=98733 I didn't end up going as far as modifying the 'demi-humans', as I was aiming at a humanocentric world and was only allowing as far as Half-? as PCs. Koewn

    Do characters know what spell levels and HP are?

    I've got a printout of a spreadsheet I used with my barbarian - it shows me, at a glance, what BAB gets me what percentage to hit against a certain AC, from 20 to 40 or so. Knowing my BAB, I pick the spot on the table that I can put some Power Attack on while still keeping my hit percentage at...

    Sub Levels -> Alternate Class Features

    I have a 8th level character in my game - Rogue/Fighter/Wizard/Cleric/Human Paragon. I don't even recall the levels of each class. He's heading towards Mystic Theurge. The Comp. Mage "Armored Mage?" feature will help him out a lot. He's very effective, but it's a good player behind the sheet...

    Replacing Nightmare (5th) effect with other spells

    Whoops, I totally missed Demand, didn't look up to 8th. So, let's do this: Demand (minus) Unlimited Range (add) Range (Short, 25+5/lvl, (in the next hotel room range) (minus) Demand's clause for the target giving a short reply (minus) Demand's clause affecting Int 1-2 (leave at 3) (add)...
