    Why does nobody complain about the monk?

    Did you miss my post earlier... or are you just up to your old tricks? :] Pathfinder monks get full BAB + TWF when flurrying. That's what flurry is in Pathfinder.

    Why does nobody complain about the monk?

    If indeed they do (I haven't seen what they do, but I'm betting "treated as a weapon, your unarmed strikes are now lethal"), they're the stupidest item ever. If they thought monks should be able enhance their fists at the same cost as normal weapons, they should've just let monks enhance their...

    Why does nobody complain about the monk?

    Hey, Ron! :) How's things? The Pathfinder monk effectively has good BAB when flurrying (and two-weapon fighting feats). My quick and dirty fix for 3.5: make the additional flurry attacks usable at all times, regardless of whether the monk is moving, full attacking, attacking with a non-monk...

    Essentials: Magic Item Rarity Explained, it's actually good!

    The article opens up with the observation that "there will always be better and worse items within a specific level. Sometimes that difference comes down to a character’s needs. Other times, players simply value one type of item over another, like one that deals extra damage." The better items...

    Alternative: Girls (females) in D&D/ Roleplaying

    And referencing Twilight provides a counterexample even for that.

    Alternative: Girls (females) in D&D/ Roleplaying

    Seoni is human, isn't she? And if she isn't (she might be a half-elf?) the black female plate-clad paladin who grow up as a poor orphan certainly is. Of course, you could say that this only shows that Paizo thinks black women are all butch low-class beggars, so eh. Two out of three ain't bad...

    Kingdom improvement limits in Kingmaker

    Are the building limits in the Improvements per Month table applied globally or per city? I.e. does building a new city let you build more buildings throughout the kingdom (one in each city per turn) or is the whole kingdom limited to the one building per city? If the limits are kingdom-wide...

    Aura of Resolve

    I disagree that outright immunity to an attack that targets what is likely your weakest save and results in a fate worse than death is lame, lame, lame, lame.

    When status effects annoy the players

    Casting remove fear still feels like a more active choice than taking Iron Will. It's also easier to learn and adapt; you can take a beating from fear effects, retreat, and return with remove fear ready. If you should've taken Iron Will, but didn't, even if you retreat, you won't be in a much...

    D&D 5E Would you consider 5th edition?

    I've come to dislike 4E, but I'm not completely happy with 3E anymore (or any of the available alternatives that I've tried), so sure, I'll try.

    When status effects annoy the players

    The rudest 4E condition I've seen was "you cannot use encounter and daily powers" (courtesy of this girl). Stunned or dominated is definitely worse tactically, but this takes the cake for just plain frustrating. In my experience, hindering conditions have proven more frustrating for the...

    Pathfinder 1E Disenchanted with Pathfinder

    ECL 2, but with the BAB and HD of a 3rd-level fighter, flight, invisibility at will, immunities, resistances, fast healing, flight... Does that truly seem fair to you?

    Withdraw Action

    Can you shift-run in a single round? Don't both of your move actions have to be the same (shift-shift, move-move, &c.)? If the enemy is as fast as you, they can keep running after you and taking an AoO at -3 each round (+2 for your granting combat advantage, -5 for their own run), and you'll...

    If so, I apologize for reopening it. I hadn't seen the original thread. Do you have a link to it handy? Edit: Never mind, found it.

    The Truth About 4th Edition: an interview

    Are you saying that you've already seen one of the big name designers like Andy Collins saying that they made 4E more similar to WoW or similar computer games as a purposeful, strategic choice? I haven't, so it was new to me.

    The platinum/pink/shaved one? Or are you talking about another one? I don't think they care much about the rules. Have you seen their character sheets? :D
