    immediate and Swift actions

    From the Rules Compendium: SWIFT ACTION A swift action consumes a very small amount of time, but it represents a larger expenditure of effort than a free action. You can take a swift action any time during your turn, but you can perform only one swift action per turn. IMMEDIATE ACTION An...

    immediate and Swift actions

    Just catching up on this thread and I do have a hard copy and PDF of the Rules Compendium. Just a quick copy and paste: Introduction The book you hold in your hands is the defi nitive guide for how to play the 3.5 revision of the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Roleplaying Game. Years in the making, it...

    Pun Pun--- does it work?

    So, after reading about this build in various places, I finally decided to read up on it myself. (here is the build I looked at: http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Pun-Pun_(3.5e_Optimized_Character_Build ) After reading through it myself and going back to track the abilities, I have come across...

    A Death that is not explained

    Time travel is tricky and can really muck up a game if not done right. I am not sure I quite understand how you have this set up. But, this is what I see. The victim, in the present, has recruited the party to go with them. That night, he is somehow transported into the past, killed, then the...

    Giant Ravens

    In real life, most birds can carry up to about 1/4 of their weight and still remain air born. I saw something about eagles and other birds of prey the other night.

    Fighting the gods - ideas, tweaks?

    I disagree on the Gods being able to avoid a fight forever. When I deal with 'future' things in my games, it takes one of two forms. The first are flexible things...things that can change. Then there are fixed things. Those are things that will happen regardless of what you do. A lot of it...

    Absurd AoO.... what can be done?

    I ended up changing some of the NPCs that had multiple attacks and similar skill sets. Except the epic rogue build where all his AoOs are sneak attacks. He's still running RG and Double Hit.

    Being immune to something

    Actually, this question is more about being immune to effects and the golem references were simple, quick examples. But, you are saying that being immune to something only protects you from things that you would have a spell resistance against. Thus, if there was something that dealt fire...

    Being immune to something

    Had an interesting conversation this weekend after playing and wanted to share/get some input. Does being immune to something allow you to ignore the effects of a spell? Example- Can a Golem just walk though a wall of force or does a shield made of fire impede attacks made by someone immune to...

    Absurd AoO.... what can be done?

    A move action is a single action and if you move though multiple squares that someone threatens, do you not generate multiple AoOs?

    Looking for a type of golem....

    Thank you! I greatly appreciate it. That too makes sense where I am sending them to. :) I need to really sit down and read the epic level handbook, since the group is reaching those levels.

    Looking for a type of golem....

    I'll have to up it a bit (characters are 18-20th level), but it's a good starting point.

    Looking for a type of golem....

    I want Quicksilver (Mercury) Golems for the next step in the adventure I am running my group through. I've looked through MM I-V and searched online a little and haven't found anything. Has anyone come across something like this before? Or have ideas on how to implement this?

    Absurd AoO.... what can be done?

    Unfortunately, this one player likes to think it's a competition. Part of me is to the point of just removing him from the group period, but I am worried that would cause friction in the group.

    Absurd AoO.... what can be done?

    The main abuser is a wild shaping druid that I've mentioned here before. I already have several things special set aside for him. Honestly, I was thinking more of something to help the players. I just finished up making a couple of Drow warriors that are truly over the top- especially with AoO...

    Absurd AoO.... what can be done?

    In my next game, that will probably be the case.

    Absurd AoO.... what can be done?

    Example- Robillard's Gambit + Double Hit and Improved Combat Reflexes. I already have the idea of lowering the dex to less than the requirement for ICR.... was just wondering if there were other ideas/things to do.
