    Invisibility question

    I would tend to agree with your DM's revised opinion that the dropping of the coin would in fact render you visible. I think in some ways, and maybe im being presumptuous based on my own campaign, playing with this grey area of when you become visible or not really opens up the flood gates to...

    energy drain question

    yeah its automatic with no save, but for clarity sake, you dont go and adjust everything instantly. The DMG basically says -1 to all checks, saves, attacks etc.. and 24 hours later if you fail the save, then you go and make permenant adjustments. a recent character in my group lost five levels...

    Best FR Paperback Novel?

    I for one enjoyed the Icewind Dale trilogy and pretty much all of Salvatore's books on Drizzt and company. Although I have not caught all the way up to publication, I am thoroughly enjoying the War of the Spider Queen books. I was delighted to read someone mentioned Raven's Bluff by Baker. I...

    your homebrew campaign - generic setting or single campaign?

    I run a homebrew campaign loosely based on the George Martin Westeros concept with a wall in the north and wildlings. It is principally a low-magoc campaign, but im slowly inserting material in that will expand magic. I have eliminated wizards and made clerics a non-playable class. I have...

    Leveling speed

    I agree with Corthian as well. The DM controlls the pace at which the party advances. I have had players in my group on both sides of the arguements. Many of them were echoing the arguements of the first poster on here, namely that they have abilities and feats that they are not even aware of...

    Can you tumble while charging?

    I wouldn't allow it simply because charging is a full-round action. I feel the info in the SRD about taking the penalty to tumble at full speed is intended to speed up your movement and get farther into, out of, or around hte room. Regardless of that penalty, I have told my players, charging...

    Prohibited magic spell schools?

    I actually prefer to play the necromancer so I was surprised to see it as tied early on as the one people most often ban. I usually ban enchantment schools. No particular reason, although I have to admit id be surprised to see just how many people ban evocation spells just because of the...

    burst weapons

    good point gabe, thats what i argued with him. it only applies to rrare occasions, and i think since the weapon is not intellegent, it does not know when doing that critical damage would hurt or help

    burst weapons

    thanks, I kinda interpreted it that way. Perhaps the weapon is so powerful (effective +3) that on a critical you cant control the amount of damage it does. The player and I were having a discussion about this because he thought, what if you didnt want to do the extra damage (perhaps you were...

    burst weapons

    when a pc uses a flaming burst or any burst weapon for that matter it says that it can be activated and deactivated with a command. Then it says that on a critical hit, it always deals the extra 1d10 (i think) for the burst. Does that mean that on a critical hit, even if the player has chosen...

    character sheets

    I was wondering what people use for character sheets in the gaming.... I think back to my youth, playing on pieces of notebook paper torn from my history notebook, jagged edges and all, with stats and junk penciled on. I currently use Steve Mulhern(?)'s spreadsheet that basically autocalculates...
