    Mandating multiclassing for spellcasters

    Id say if you and players want to play low magic 1/2 is not the way. Try different restrictions like cleric 1/2 max, sorcs/mages 3/4 max or something like that. Maybe mages forced to go ek/spellsword/similar routes would be restricting enought to encourage low magic. As pointed out mages suffer...

    Coup de Gras question.

    Yeah its the point of CdG but it is still unbalancing to let one with PA to kill anything regardless of HPs with 95% chance compared to one without PA, saves are little more possible to roll. Specially at low levels when base damage doesn't go so high up. I think its not too easy to behead one...

    Coup de Gras question.

    For me it sounds stupid that fighter can whack a ton of damage with attack roll + power attack but then suddenly when opponent is very vulnerable he cant SMASH it with all the might (s)he has. Specially if you consider weapon that does give just 2* crit. Might be unbalancing though because that...

    Building A ECL of 5

    Sounds like it would be good idea to have monsterous HDs in addition to that 1 class lvl. But lets forget that. Half dragon template (adj+3) class 1 Any race with +1 adj (aasimar, thiefling) or Wererat (adj 3, natural hd 1) class lvl 1 - Dracandross

    Orcs vs. Commoner Humans

    Well, thats right. But even then average changes should go from 8 to 12 (with -2 penalty woulda be 6 to 10). But INT doesnt mean a thing in this. Even then they are warriors and shoulda be thought like having some skills in combat&warfare tactics. Like profession(combat) or so. Hey, come on...

    Optimizing my offbeat barbarian

    Im not sure, but at least I would roule that with able learner Literacy would cost only 1 point. (2 points normally because it's not class skill) Additionally i wouldnt even take it as you get it for free when taking non barbarian level. Another skillpoint saved! If you really want to get more...

    Search, Spot, Listen

    Conan D20 system had one great idea. It allows INT bonus points to be used as 'class' points, ie when using them skill counts as class skill for those points only. Makes easier to make different chars, but of course in DD version some preqs for prestige classes might be messed. Makes INT also...

    Handling a Gray Ooze

    I think if ooze hits with slam it can as free action make grapple check. Then on next round if you are grappled it may constrict you. But on round it slams it cant also deal constrict damage. Constricting is attack and therefore needs action to do, which on grapple round ooze doesnt have...
