You may not like it, but it's the rules. It is a contaminant in fact, a natural contaminant but still a contaminant.

Senko, if you don't think saltwater is considered poisonous and harmful, try drinking a gallon or more and see what happens.

Senko poison is also in its natural element. So if you were going to decide that only things which were not in their "natural element" could be purified then you might as well get rid of the spell since everything which is unhealthy is "in its natural element". Of course this spell is not...

aren't other thrown weapons technically also buried in you? Whether arrows or javelins.

he can cast spells based on his levels, even if he gets bonus spells he still needs to be at the level where he can actually cast spells of that level before he can add his bonus spells to his total spells per day.

My mistake, I should have clarified. When I said that I meant that if I was designing the game, not after the game has already been designed. I do not intend to houserule and in fact I try to keep houseruling to a minimum for exactly the reason you said, because it wouldn't be D&D, it would be...

Thanks for the help guys.

And of course, I would modify the spells so every character has a chance as opposed to someone using Greater Invis., Fly and lobbing fireballs on the Pally from 300 feet in the air and I would also modify it so that a caster on his own facing a fighter has a fighting chance at any level.

One of the differences in game design between D&D and Diablo is that Diablo classes were first of all designed for independence. When Diablo 2 was being made, the designers asked "is this a character that can successfully face all the challenges and difficulties of the campaign alone?" You will...

Of course, I understand that these two system are completely different and combat is very different also in these two systems since going through the whole Diablo game can be done in a few playing sessions (in multi-player) taking no more than four hours, and combat being calculated by a...

This is interesting because in Diablo, melee characters like the paladin, amazon and barbarian were not dominated by casters like the necromancer and the sorceror while the casters also were very independent and did not require resting for spells and were prepared at any time and at any moment...

yes, sorry if it was confusing. It is a pure ability check and if you make it you can use the class ability again. It is not any sort of skill check such as bluff etc. etc.

I have not been in the world of D&D for a long time, but I would like to ask as this will help me better understand, is the reason some people say that games start to break down at the higher levels because optimization is possible? I have had experiences playing Diablo 2 where heavy...

I was going to be using material from the book Diablo 2: Diablerie and the Amazon requires a charisma check for some of her skils after using them otherwise she can use them for the day.

Nice spell Dandu, I'd xp you but I have to spread.

Yes, it's specifically a charisma check.

I was looking for ways to increase the chance of succeeding on an ability score check. Currently the only thing that comes to mind is casting eagles splendour for a bonus to charisma and having a high charisma to begin with. I am going to have to make a number of these so they can' be expensive...

Just one question Dandu, you included freedom of movement as a broken spell, can you explain what is broken about it? I can understand the others but I couldn't figure out how this would be a broken spell. Thanks.

I was going to post this in the 4th edition forum, but I decided not to because 1, I don't play 4th edition, and 2, I have heard some negative reviews about 4th edition and wanted peoples opinion with why they don't play 4th edition and what exactly they feel to be the problem with it so I felt...

Thanks guys, your posts are of great help. I'd xp you Nifft, but it says I have to spread.
