I think that Aid Another would be a better choice of feats (from the Oriental Adventures book) It gives +4 bonus when using the Aid Another action. Now that doesn't sound like much but it would make 300 men fighting two-ranked in a fortified mountain pass very hard to beat

That does help, although it still makes for a very powerful defence. Our fighter could endure the dragon's breath and initiative-winning attack at 90% and then adjust to 50% for his own attack What is the source for this rule and the rule that it covers your opponent please? Another question I...

There are certainly interesting options you can do with a sorceror besides fireball For instance if you only cast monster summoning spells it would be a very unusual and quite potent character. More sensibly if you took a wide range of useful spells then you would be very effective. Analyze...

Is it not actually rather better than that? For instance, I approach the dragon shield set to 90%. I can pretty much laugh it's fire breath off (+4 saves and the equivalent of improved evasion from the shield) Next it attacks, my shield still being at 90%, I get a +10 AC bonus just from the...

Spend feats? Bah, I'll stick to my 3rd level Human Cleric then. At least he got Weapon Focus and Longsword for free ;)

Firstly thank you very much Hypersmurf for pointing out the limitations - I had missed those I will however try again, I still think this is an awesome feat :) Round 1 I teleport home Take 13 Cone of Colds (11 doing 15 d6, 2 maximised for 90 cold damage each) DC 30 Your move (achieved...

How about 16 Arms of Nyr, 8 Gauntlets of Ogre Power, Belt of Giant strength and a Hammer of Thunderbolts (which makes Gauntlets and Belt bonuses stack) Be quite a good character for carrying drinks back from the bar in addition to the combat advantages

I'm not terribly convinced by this as a PC concept but I love the idea as an arch-nemesis Poor widdle mind-sucking abomination who nobody loves. I quite seriously love it :) I'm not sure it would be entirely sane. Still I suppose ideally it should be sane and everyone else should be...

Marilith :)

Round 1: I cast Finger of Death, quickened Phantasmal killer, and the 5 delayed Phantasmal Killers go off Your move :) Now just using the PHB and DMG the DCs could be 29 on the Phantasmal Killers (two saves) and 32 on the Finger of Death. (18 stat + 5 book + 6 cloak + 5 level ups + 2 age = 36...

Something else has occurred to me, making the feat even worse As a 4th level Monk, something that you need 16 on the dice roll to hit is almost certainly something you shouldn't be in melee with! You are quite weak relative to an armoured Fighter and an AC 20+ monster is going to almost...

Looking at the maths Circle Kick starts mediocre and quickly becomes obsolete 4th level Monk One attack at +3 Flurry at +1/+1 Circle kick at +3 plus (chance to hit) probability of a second attack at +3 Now usually Flurry is better. Plugging in some numbers: 14 Str, AC 15 Goblin, Weapon focus...

Fireball Yep, I appreciate that they have spell resistance. However a dangerous group of drow (say 10 5th level drow) will be hammered by this spell. The ones that make the SR roll are fine The ones that fail the SR roll will take significant damage, even on a save. Half of 9d6 is brutal and...
