    Vampires and Disintegrate, does it destroy it? + Libris Mortis question

    Hrmm... tough call. I'll give my opinion, though I won't proclaim to be an expert -- so anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. I'd rule that the disintegrate, if it drops a vampire to 0 hp, forces it to revert to gaseous form, and allows the vampire to work normally. As for Improved...

    Psychic Warrior: Worth it?

    I've only tinkered with Psychic Warrior once, with a PbP game here: elan psychic warrior 1/monk 5. Took inertial armor, and between that and all the variants from UA we used (class bonus to defense being the primary contributor), I had an AC in the high 20s when manifesting inertial armor (AC...

    After Swashbuckler . . .

    I'm actually playing a changeling Swashbuckler 3/Beguiler 10 presently as one of several characters, and love him. The synergy of Swashbuckler's insightful strike, coupled with the Int focus of the Beguiler's spellcasting, is such a boon. In fact, I'm of the mind that if you want to play a...

    PHB II Classes -- Epic Progression?

    From looking over the Wizards website, I see nothing in regard to epic-level progressions for any of the PHB II classes (beguiler, dragon shaman, duskblade, and knight). The beguiler in particular interests me the most (though I'm still a ways distant from epic level beguiler), but the others...

    Hideous Blow Question

    Not that it's a real help until epic levels, but the Eldritch Sculptor epic feat for warlocks (there's a .zip file on the WoTC website for it, as well as several other nifty feats for the epic warlock) will be a real boon. You have to have a blast shape essence in least, lesser, greater and...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Noob Help Building 3.5 Scout

    Scout has been far more of an interesting class than I expected. I'm running a Scout (just got level 9 -- skill points already chosen, just need to decide on my feat -- Quick Reconnoiter or Improved Initiative being the primary choice). Yesterday, I took my Scout (who was lvl 8) with a lvl 10...

    Trying to play a warlock...

    I'm actually playing a CG human warlock right now (finally got my hardcore AD&D roomies to give 3.5 a shot, following our ongoing fun with NWN 2). 10th level... two 14s (STR and WIS), three 16s (DEX, CON and INT) and an 18 (put into CHA, and now 20). I'm just waiting for Imbue Item, so that I...

    Crafting Special Materials Takes HOW Long?

    Taking the mithral chainmail example I originally mentioned, I would assume a Craft DC of 20 (which is the DC for the masterwork component in the PHB), rather than the 15 for normal chainmail, since mithral automatically makes any armor it's used in a masterwork armor. I think it should be the...

    Crafting Special Materials Takes HOW Long?

    I know I asked this question several months ago, but I find myself asking again, partially due to my own curiosity as well as my DM's curiosity. From looking at the Craft rules, it takes 4 weeks to make a suit of chainmail (assuming a check result of 25, multiplied by the DC of 15 for crafting...

    Fey'ri ECL?

    Apparently, there doesn't seem to be (or I can't find it on the WoTC errata webpage, anyway) a 3.5 update for the Monster Compendium: Monsters of Faerun. Specifically, I'm looking for the ECL of the fey'ri (asking on behalf of my DM, who's very interested in it to make an NPC, if not a PC). I...

    EYES of the LICH QUEEN: Monstrous Mein (FULL)

    I may be too late to post my interest, since Hanuman47 posted and I'm assuming this is likely first-come, first served. If not, I'm actually thinking drow... though I'm torn between swashbuckler and warlock, but likely warlock. I'll sketch something out tomorrow, if you're interested in...

    Whirling Steel Strike & TWF?

    I was assuming the +15/+15/+15 would be the three hits at the highest BAB that flurry gives you. The first +10 would be the first off-hand attack, then the normal +10 from flurry. The first +5 would be the second off-hand attack from Improved TWF, and the second +5 would come from the final...

    Warlock Feats

    Did Extra Invocation get errata'ed to allow Warlocks to take Dark Invocations once they go epic-level? I haven't checked errata for Complete Arcane or Complete Mage in quite some time, I admit, but if that's the case, I like the decision.

    Whirling Steel Strike & TWF?

    Crazy question, perhaps, and it won't surprise me if it's something that's long since been discussed and pointed out, or errata'ed. At any rate, the questions... Whirling Steel Strike allows a monk to (assuming they have the proficiency) to wield a longsword and retain flurry of blows. For...

    Corporate Defiance (OOC Thread) -- CLOSED

    I really, really want to kick myself for this, especially after having hopes of getting things running again. Alas, the best-laid plans... Unfortunately, I'm going to have to close the game down. Christmas was rough... made far rougher this past nearly two weeks by having been very ill IRL (a...

    Casefiles Reopened: Agents of D.E.L.V.E.

    Speaking for myself, I'd like to keep going if that's possible, though with half the party missing, that makes it far more difficult. And with the holidays, it only seems to get more problematic -- enough so that I've had to tone down on the Star Wars game I've been running for the last month...

    Corporate Defiance (OOC Thread) -- CLOSED

    I hate doing this. I really do, because I do like running this game. But I want everyone's input first before making any decisions. I'm finding myself a bit overwhelmed, mostly due to RL with the holidays. Knowing my luck, it's only going to get worse over the next couple or three weeks, and...

    Corporate Defiance

    Strangely, perhaps, there is nothing on the Gentech rooftop. No cameras, no sensors of any kind. Evidently, Gentech's security isn't as good as what one would expect. Nearly two minutes pass before the ventilation shaft shuts down and Cayla taps a few keys on her system. The syntherope...

    Corporate Defiance

    Again, my apologies, guys. This past week has been almost hellish, and the coming weeks will only be more of the same. Not helping that I think I'm coming down with something. Still, I shall try to push on. Cayla is the last to enter, looking at R.C. for a moment before a fleeting smile...

    Corporate Defiance (OOC Thread) -- CLOSED

    Ion Grenade: 6d6 ion damage, 4 meter range increment, 6-meter radius of effect. No damage to organics unless they have cybernetics (so be careful, if you don't want to lose communications and that sort of thing, with your subcutaneous comlink implants).
