I agree, but we didn't take time last night to look for an answer. Nail made a ruling and we went with it to speed up play. BTW, billd91, good options, but we were fighting in a forest with lots of undergrowth that impeded movement, so charging and running were both out, and I don't remember...

Hehe, funny! :p Seriously, the -4 to Strength is a very significant penalty. Not as much to a Sorcerer, but is still going to play a part in any campaign that keeps track of encumbrance. Still, +10' base speed and Darkvision are very excellent benefits, IMO. I think they easily balance out...

Thanks, Crothian. Anyone else wanna weigh in on this one? IOW, **BUMP**! :)

Tome & Blood lists quite a bit more potentially being shared telepathically over the Empathic Link, but the 3.5 rules keep it pretty limited. If the familiar is away from the player (but within 1 mile), either watching an area (like the party's base camp) or following someone the party is...

Looking over Kobold racial traits, here's what they get: -4 Strength, +2 Dexterity, –2 Constitution. Small size: +1 bonus to Armor Class, +1 bonus on attack rolls, +4 bonus on Hide checks, –4 penalty on grapple checks, lifting and carrying limits 3/4 those of Medium characters. A kobold’s base...

This is correct, but to give a little more background: The 3.5 Revision team decided that a Familiar bonus should be the equivalent of a no prereq feat, thus any familiar that improves a skill grants +3 just like the Skill Focus feat, and the infamous 3.0 Toad that used to give a +2 bonus to...

<sigh> I miss math! :( I really enjoyed doing stuff like this in undergrad, when I was actually using it near daily and could put that part of my brain to good use. Now it's only engaged once a month for doing bills (yes, that part of my brain is now lazy & stupid! :p) Those are...

Glad to have you, Isida, and welcome to the party. I just noticed your location is listed as Iowa. Given that I'm in the Iowa City/North Liberty area, I'm curious where you're at. Enjoying the recent weather? ;)

Kalythar, Litorian MageBlade Sitting down with the others, Kalythar first scans the tavern, trying to gauge whether any of the patrons are too drunk to keep themselves in line, or paying Master Mollen too much attention. He's probably known as a caravan merchant in this place, which is...

I don't think so. That book does weigh only a single pound but it has 1,000 pages (according to Sovelior's 3.5 SRD) and I was thinking the Traveling version only had 50 or so (much fewer than the standard spellbook, which has 100 pages). Thanks though. :) DrSpunj

I didn't really play much 2e, so I don't know/remember how they used to be, but right now it's important because of the weight. 3 lbs is pushing me right up to and nearly over that Light to Medium encumbrance boundary. While I can always ditch some other things I thought I had come across a 3.X...

I thought I read about a traveling spellbook somewhere at one time. Has fewer pages than the PHB's standard spellbook and therefore can hold fewer spells, but weighs significantly less as well. I just skimmed through Tome & Blood, Arms & Equipment Guide and Magic of Faerun. Did I miss it? Is it...

Thanks, Hyp; that makes a lot of sense. Thought my post was invisible there for awhile given the way everyone was scrambling to answer it. :p Thanks. DrSpunj

I spotted the thread, skimmed the first several posts, then decided to post myself. I have a B&W G3, 350MHz with...ummm...>512MB of memory (can't remember specifics, it's been so long since I upgraded that :)) with a second hard drive (and yes, it's a revision A box meaning I had to get an...

I apologize for the small sidetrack here, but does anyone have any problems with the prone character using Tumble and a Move Action to maneuver into a non-threatened square, and then stand up with their other Move Action? Wouldn't that allow you avoid all AoOs (assuming you beat the Tumble...

Nice update, PS. Thanks! I wanted you to know, though, that the PC Level cells were locked when I first opened the file. Thankfully there wasn't a password on the sheet protection and I was able to use it just fine after unlocking the sheet. Still, might throw some others off. Thanks again...

I'm right there with the both of you. Here's what we're doing IMC: --------------------------------- Hero Points: At the beginning of every session each PC will receive a number of Hero Points equal to their ChaMod (minimum 1). Any Hero Points not used at the end of the session disappear. Hero...

Because he's a DM, and one of his players (that's me ;)) does have an archer. Furthermore, I believe he designed a mid-level 3.5 Ranger Archer for a one-shot months ago, and got to experience archery firsthand. He can, of course, answer you far better on specifics, but I believe his lasting...

Hope that helps. DrSpunj

Hey, thanks for modifying the sheet that way. I thought about doing that as well, splitting the Archer column into both with and without IRS going. That's good to know. The other thing I thought of as I drove into work this morning is that I check for a natural 1 always failing at lower ACs...
