    Rakshasa Duskblade and Practiced Spellcaster

    Practiced spellcaster is one of those feats thats way better for monsters with caster levels than it is for PCs. Can't believe someone actually said a dragon doesen't benefit much from this feat....Only if they are young. Actually paladins and rangers benefit well from it too, since it...

    Animal Companion feats

    Wow, I can't believe I missed that...Could have sworn natural spell was one of the feats you can take early, but gain no benefit until you qualify for it. OK so... 1st Beast totem, Skill Focus(handle animal) 3rd Companion Spellbound 6th Totem Companion 9th Natural Spell Of course then I have...

    Enhancement penalty vs. stat damage

    Are your players doing something thats causing you to want to punish them for letting themselves get fatigued/exhausted? Seems like an odd way to power up necromancers even more than they already are....Waves of exhaustion anyone Kapow take some con damage while you're at it.

    Animal Companion feats

    Not trying to hijack the OPs thread, I'm just currently making a druid who is also focuses on animal companions. So I'll add my ideas in and see what others think. I'm about to start a ebberon setting druid, for the age of wyrms campaign. So please no spoilers. I originally designed a...

    Races With Wisdom Bonus And No LA - Possible?

    Do you intend for them to be wise but dull and clumsy? Doesen't strike me as very efficient for a race to evolve into something thats naturally clumsy and slow and happens to have a favored class(maybe at least) that specializes in archery? I'd say make it +2wis -2Int -2cha, to represent their...

    Natural Spell Nerf Options

    I agree this seems like an strange nerf....especially if you already had the feat and have been utilizing it up until he decided to nerf it. Were you doing something nasty or something? Did the DM give you any reasoning? I mean if you can cast a buff spell on yourself, why on earth couldnt...

    Healing Feats

    My interpretation is that any conjuration(healing) spell you cast, except for cantrips, qualifies for the bonus healing....no healing seems analoguous with 0 healing in this case....My line of thinking is when I cast a healing spell I think 'Ok, heres 2pts of healing per level and I add it to...

    Desperately Seeking Feat

    There is the Incantatrix prestige class that gets a similar ability.... Also there is an epic feat that simply reduces the level of a metamagiced spell by 1(only once, not once per metamagic feat) Any other ways that I know of are limited by very specific paramaters, like a particular spell...

    Healing Feats

    Can't wait till my radiant servant hits lvl 9 and will be able to cast a mass cure light wounds for about 45pts of healing per person once per day, or more times with action pts. 1d8(maximized with armband of healing)+ 10augment, +9CL, +1healing domain, +2sacred healing. =30x1.5 for the...

    Healing Feats

    Augment healing: Add +2 points per spell level to the amount of damage healed by any Conjuration(healing) spell that you cast. The amount healed by mass lesser vigor when it is cast is 0, +6 for it being a 3rd level conjuration(healing) spell. Seems like a fairly solid interpretation to me...

    Questions about wielding a double weapon

    First part sounds right...Primary attack with 1 side, 1 bonus attack with the other side. Both attacks, including iteratives you may have all suffer the -2 penalty. You dont HAVE to fight with both sides of a double weapon. You can designate 1 side to be used for a round, and you don't have...

    List your problematic spells here

    Orb spells... The orb spells are fine....as long as they are bumped up to 6th level spells. I mean seriously, wizards would STILL take them as 6th level spells. Magic missile gets put on the same level as scorching ray? 5d4+5 vs 8d6 at 9th level? No thanks....plus what other ranged...

    Animal companion + Fox's cunning

    ... It's rules rapeing to say an animal that gets fox's cunning cast on it can understand common? I figured that was a logical extension of the way intillect worked...If I got hit with a feeblemind wouldn't I forget how to understand common? I don't understand calculus very well, but I've...

    Healing Feats

    are there any decent spells..? I'm playing a 5th level cleric, going radiant servant next level. They are about as healer-iffic as you can get. Augment Healing, + Sacred Healing + extra turning= lots of big heals Next level I'll take imbued healing for the bonus HPs... I like to cast Mass...

    Every Ability Score Affects Saving Throws

    Someone who multiclasses in order to get better saves IS sacrificing something in order to get those better saves. If they take a level of monk, they lose a BAB point and the ability to wear armor, if they take hexblade, they are losing out on bonus feat progression. If they take anything...

    Little Known Rules of D&D

    The casting time on the spell Lesser Restoration is 3 rounds...Most games Ive seen treat it as a standard action. The casting time on Sleep is 1 full round. pretty useless when a spellcraft check and a move action can make you immune to it, or the guards can all sound the alarm and charge you...

    Longlasting but cheap darkvision..?

    A single wand of Mass darkvision? 50 charges would cost 21,000. can affect 7 characters per charge, and lasts 7 hours per activation. 2 charges per day for 14 hours sight (You dont need to see in the dark when your sleeping). Would last your whole group for 25 days. Or scrimp with 1...

    Chained Rays ?

    It is a finnicky way of reading it...but I believe that is the correct interpretation. From a logic standpoint I agree that rays are pretty much a 'target 1 creature with a range greater than touch' spells. But for exactly the reason you already pointed out I do not believe the developers...
