Has any player used the various Symbol spells? Considering the cost (1,000 gp minimum) of this one shot spell and the limited effect (10 HD max for Sleep, 1d6 rounds for Stunning) it just doesn't seem a very viable spell.

I am not a RAW lawyer... but, I am a believer in a balanced game. The players, as well as the DM, must understand that even if it's allowed by rules interpretation, it may not be good for the game. The Weapon Augmentation infusions are for weapons, not wondrous items. Adding magical effects to...

For myself and those I've played with, the general idea is that if characters establish a base they might as well just burn their gold. Granted, not all DMs destroy bases arbitrarily, but I once had a DM run a tsunami through a city to reduce the party's affluence. No plot, no background, no...

Oh crap, I've never really liked the psionic aspect of the game. Never thought it was a fantasy concept... Are there comparable costs for psionic effects like there are for arcane/ divine? If not, psionics just went to the head of my most hated aspect of d20.

Would you allow the use of synergetic (is that a word?) materials to reduce the costs of crafting magic items? For instance, you slay the huge black dragon. The fighter crafts some masterwork full plate (or hide, that's for another post I guess...). The caster enchants it to +1 and wants to add...

You RAW lawyers crack me up. You're quick to point out how things apply, and in the same breath acknowledge the variances to previous writings. Or to modify writings in a biased way to promote your conditions, usually to stymie the creative thoughts of players that you can't reasonably object...

If this is true, please explain Draco-liches & beholder-liches...

After the "Rich 9th Level Wizards" thread... I wonder what amount of games actually abide by the material component requirements for spells; or does the DM just.."I don't wanna deal with the book keeping headaches, just cast your spells..." Specifically because some spells have exceedingly...

This will probably make all the DM's scream, but... Intelligence being the primary ability, a wizard probably has at least a +2 modifier. So, just putting 4 - 6 skill points in Craft; Armorsmithing and the Fabricate spell would provide you with 250 (Banded mail) to 1500 (Full Plate) each day...

A character "progressing" without BAB, skill or save adjustments doesn't seem like advancement. Sure, by the rules it works, but I'm not a big fan of RAW. After looking through Complete Arcane, once a character is a Necropolitan, its a short hop to Spell-stitched... No ECL adjustment, but...

If its image, get a hat of disguise. You can be in platemail for all anyone else can tell.

I'll admit, the full lich is a terrible thing to face. The fear, the paralytic touch, the DR, the stat and skill bonuses and the ultimate recurring/ undying villain. I love em. ... but As a player, you give up 4 levels compared to your group (if a DM would allow you to play one). That's four...

In the book Libris Mortis the Necropolitan allows a character to gain the "augmented humanoid" as an undead creature. The character must die, be raised (as per Raise Dead thus lose a level) and sacrifice 1000xp. Henceforth, no longer subject to critical hits, sneak attacks, fort saves (unless...

If a wand has a spell with a range of personal does it only affect the wielder? Can a wand of Shield be used by a thief to place the effect on a fighter?

Can followers be classed; fighter, druid, etc...?

I'm trying to keep the DM head-ache level to a minimum. Most books state PC's should not be interested in running a business, they should be adventuring. But........... I took the feat and now have >20 followers. A bit much for running just an inn. I figured I'd build a compound and have...

The warblade gets BAB & saves as a fighter AND 4+ skill points/ level, d12 for hit points, class and a special ability at every other level? Compared to the other martial classes, yea that seems much more powerful.

What do most people do with followers acquired from the Leadership feat? Being the anal-retentive person that I am, I like to know what, where and how they are doing. I thought I would set them up in a pretty good sized village as a "community within a community". They are all npc class'...
