    Monk unarmed damage question

    Well thanks all for your posts. It seems that the general consensus is that the more mass the object has (ogre fist compared to halfling fist) the more base damage it will do regardless of actual strength. I guess I can accept that. Still doesn't make a huge amount of sense though. But hey, it's...

    Monk unarmed damage question

    Forgive me if this has been asked before but, does anyone know the reason why smaller monks deal less damage than medium monks and larger monks deal more damage then medium monks? Is it based on strength? Well then what about the halfling with a 16 strength and the human with a 12 strength. Is...

    Lamest character deaths ever!

    Well our whole party got TPKed by the animated rug in The Forge of Fury. Up until that point we had always sent one PC in to scout any room before the whole party would go in. This time though, it was getting late and we (the players) were all getting a little tired. The DM described a room that...

    First Time Paladin

    I am currently playing a paladin of Torm in an FR game. My two companions are a LN elven monk and a N human cleric of Kossuth. The background of the PCs are that my paladin and the monk have known each other for a while and the cleric is a new addition to our group. And as Torm is the god of...

    Game Bloopers and Quotes

    Some very funny stuff so far. Here's mine. I was DMing a 2nd edition game set in Krynn. There were 3 players: a human ranger, a human Knight, and an elven wizard. After a few game sessions, all the PCs had horses and were attempting to track down an ancient artifact. They had just met an NPC...

    Why aren't paladins liked?

    Well I thought I would chime in with my .02. I have played only 2 paladins in my gaming years. One was in 3rd edition and one is now, in 3.5. I never wanted to play one in 1st or 2nd edition because I was too hung up on half-elven fighters (thank you Tanis Half-elven). My first paladin lasted...

    Any gamers in Orlando, Florida?

    sithramir, we have a regular game going right now. We play Forgotten Realms using 3.5 and have only 3 players and a DM. We would love a fourth to round out the group. If interested, send me an email. It is in my profile. Look forward to hearing from you.

    Which module in WotC's Adventure Path Series is the deadliest?

    I posted in another thread that my party just got TPKed in Forge of Fury (which is the one I voted for). Of course I have only played through Sunless Citadel and Forge of Fury so far. But I am now on my third character in Forge of Fury. My ranger, who made it through Sunless Citadel without...

    Forge of Fury: Deathtrap? (spoilers)

    LOL. Sorry, didn't mean for to have to make a Will save like that. :lol: (Though I secretly knew what I was typing when I did it ;))

    Forge of Fury: Deathtrap? (spoilers)

    I am actually playing through Forge of Fury right now. And I haven't read many of the posts in this thread either for fear of spoiling anything. I just wanted to say that our party suffered a TPK 2 sessions ago. Now I already know about the roper as our DM removed it and we actually didn't even...

    Divine Champion from FR - is it worth it?

    Well I ended up picking up the Players Guide to Faerun over the weekend and after looking over the updated Divine Champion, decided against it. I am just going to stay with paladin which is cool. Also, WCrawford in FR, when playing a paladin, depending on your god, you can actually multiclass...

    A variant fighter?

    Well I am glad my little post spawned off quite a discussion of the issue. I had thought I was the only one who thought the fighter needed something else. I realize that not everyone does and that is okay too. For my game though, it works perfectly for 2 reasons. One, we think it keeps the...

    A variant fighter?

    DrSpunj And this is exactly why we came up with the idea of a bonus feat every level. And the funny thing is, the last fighter I played took the Education feat (from FRCS) at 1st level and thus gained all Knowledge skills as class skills. His INT was his best attribute along with his DEX and...

    Thanks for the info. I appreciate it.

    Divine Champion from FR - is it worth it?

    D'oh! Wrong place to post this. Sorry. If a mod could move it to the General Discussion that would be great. Thanks.

    Divine Champion from FR - is it worth it?

    Right now I am playing a paladin of Torm in a FR campaign. I was thinking of multiclassing into Divine Champion at 8th level. Since I have never actually used this PrC before (either as player or DM), I was wondering if it is worth it. I have read the class abilities and I believe I understand...

    A variant fighter?

    Actually no offense was taken at all. And you are right about it working for some and not others. Our group has never been a huge multiclassing party. It does seem ironic that one of the best innovations of 3.0 was the muticlassing rules, and we rarely find ourselves doing it. As an example, the...

    A variant fighter?

    I guess it really all depends on the players, the DM, and the campaign. I would say that as a group we like to keep things balanced and usually do not institute house rules willy-nilly. First they are discussed between the group and then if everyone agrees they are instituted on a trial basis...

    A variant fighter?

    Duplicate post. Sorry.

    A variant fighter?

    Well Prothall it actually works and yes, I would agree that the fighter does have a little bit of extra power in the first few levels but it definitely does even out with evryone else by about 7th or 8th level. I actually played a fighter to 14th level before the campaign ended and I was using a...
