    Portland or Seattle Areas

    Puget Sound beats the Columbia River any day for natural beauty. Sure our property values are higher, but that means more appreciation for you. Plus no State Income Tax (of course we do have sales tax). Also when the Seahawks make the superbowl again this year, you can cheer along with the...

    House-ruled monk class

    One more suggestion: +4 to AC in my opinion is too much to give at first level for free, if you change it to Wis to AC you make the monk work for it, this maybe balances the class a little more , then perhaps do a class based bonus at every 5 levels, this way he gets more than the +4 which is...

    House-ruled monk class

    As a base class you may want to look at the swashbuckler for balance, d10 hitdice, good BAB, 4 skill points dodge bonus to AC instead of heavy armor and a number of class abilities. Big difference is 3 good saves in my opionion, that is a big benefit, that I am not sure is balanced. Usually...

    Barbarian Substitution levels- Berzerker

    Just to address the balance issue on the Crescending Rage, there are a couple of variables that need to be in effect for this to kick in: 1- The Berzerker needs to be raging. This limits the number of rounds that this ability can be used. 2- The berzerker needs to below half hitpoints, so this...

    Barbarian Substitution levels- Berzerker

    Worth noting, that unlike someone who takes the Diehard feat, the character is only under the effects while raging. Which is one encounter a day at early levels.

    The Healer

    In a world with clerics, I think we both see that the cleric wins as the most effective healer in an adventuring party. Without clerics (or similar divine casters) the class is a lot more valuable. Even if clerics are rare this would make a great NPC class. If I was limping back from the...

    Barbarian Substitution levels- Berzerker

    Wow, making comments that attack and then making judgements about me and not what I wrote isn't quite the feedback I was looking for. I do appreciate your comments that you think it is unbalanced, I was leaning towards that as well. I will dispute Diehard vs. Fast movement. Diehard is worth...

    Why would you want to play *that*??

    Playing purely for the statistics is often done even with the core four. How many people shudder to take an LA or a PrC when playing a spell caster because they don't want to lose out on one caster level. Regarding the OP, some people look to milk every advantage they can, others want...

    The Healer

    At a quick glance it doesn't appear broken. However as an honest statement, as a player, I don't see the allure of playing one. Rumor is despite their other abilities, few want to play the cleric or "walking bandaid". I have played a few clerics and have enjoyed it, and even enjoy the healing...

    Core Class- Empathetic Healer

    I was thinking the same thing today about NA and Fast heal, after reviewing the class after a year. The Steal life ability should be the main way the character revives, that or transferring the wounds. I suggest the following changes, keep the fast heal at 1 per hour (maybe push it back to 6th...

    Core Class- Empathetic Healer

    I would rule they can absorb some of it. I could definitely see the allure of making a move action to get to the target of the transfer. I would think somewhere around 9th level would be a good place for this.

    What's your favorite PHB spell?

    How about Mage Armor, as it is one of those spells that is much needed at early levels, yet it doesn't scale well at high levels. The creator of this spell would have had to been high enough level to not need the spell, so why did he create it?
