    So Ryan What about Incantations in E6?

    I meant 6th level + magic should be quest-worthy. But like, enforced quest-worthy, not "5000k diamond" quest-worthy.

    So Ryan What about Incantations in E6?

    By the time you complete your ritual mass bull strength I hope someone asks "Why didn't we just make a couple-dozen potions?"

    So Ryan What about Incantations in E6?

    i.e. Ritual Magic? I have a hard time thinking of a spell past level 5 that I'd really want to put in that category - and I'd definitely always want the components for those rituals to be quest-worthy.

    E6: The Game Inside D&D

    I actually would re-boot the thread again, maybe in a different subforum. But I'd want to do a rewrite of the E6 .pdf first, and before I could do that I'd want to be sure that I could get good layout for it. I'm not sure J.A.Dettman has the time anymore (I sent him an e-mail to query, though.)

    E6: The Game Inside D&D

    If you decide to go Pathfinder E8, I would recommend that you slow down the 7th and 8th level advancement, and make those levels more rare in the NPC world. Those are definitely big levels.

    E6: The Game Inside D&D

    E8 has a couple of problematic spells, like Evard's Black Tentacles, which can completely neutralize a character. 8th level in 3.5 was the very beginning of the magic-item arms race, as I saw it. But I don't know Pathfinder well enough to comment. E8 may well be a better fit for Pathfinder.

    My suggestion would be 1. Get a decent SRD together 2. Write some mind-blowing setting material 3. Get art

    E6 SRD - community project

    One thing: I'd prefer if the simplest 3.5-SRD-trimmed-down should be the one called the "E6 SRD" The Pathfinder+Other Mods can be given your own cool name, like the "Axalon SRD" which lists E6 (or E6 + the E6 SRD) in its Section 15. Unrelated note: I think cursed items / artifacts /...

    I agree that LA is B0rk3n - always was. My Point buy thing worked for my group.

    E6 SRD - community project

    I'd love to do a read-through towards the end of February if something is available by then. I've trimmed individual SRD files for what-would-have-been this project a half dozen times. As I said on e-mail to another interested party, I'm big on keeping exactly to the baseline ruleset (in this...

    What the World needs: E6 in Book Format

    I love the dedication to the E6 idea but for required reading, nah. Get your campaign idea first, then choose rules that serve you and your players. Don't feel constrained by the existence of a monster in the SRD - do what works for your table/world/game.

    What the World needs: E6 in Book Format

    I find it helpful to move away from the abstract argument In terms of an E6 book, think about page count - GMs would find the Umber Hulk stats helpful than, say, the Tarrasque. So I'd edit accordingly. If you are making a REALLY HEAVY E6 book, then include an appendix of Demon Lords and...

    What the World needs: E6 in Book Format

    One other thing: if E6 jus means you structure a game better where the game goes only to level 6 - i.e. If some table enjoys An epic 6 level awesome game rather than a game that peters off at level 8 because the "important stuff" was set for level 15. Then for the following night, I am...

    What the World needs: E6 in Book Format

    What I'm saying is that I'd put capstones as an appendix. Is what I'm saying. So that way people get whatever flavor they want. Agreed about keeping out monsters whose spell lists cause them to be "too high" - give them another appendix.
