Greetings all, I've a quick question about psions and the bonus power points table. This is probably a stupid question, but I'll ask it anyways. Does an increase to your primary stat retroactively increase your bonus power points? For example, a 1st level Egoist/6th level fighter with a...

Greetings all, I'm trying to find programs/tools for PalmOS to make my gaming life a tad easier. Specifically, I'm looking for a good die roller and a good D&D 3e character sheet/manager. Ideally, I'd like the character manager to have a facility for managing a spellbook and spells...

It's a neat idea, but I personally don't really like it. Solely for the reason of area effect damage spells. With a common HP pool if the familiar and mage are nearby then any, and all, area effect spells will do double damage. High damage area effect spells are nasty enough when playing a...

How about Reach Spell? Being able to spontaneously cast a 30' range Cure spell might just be too useful to pass up. Especially if you're the only one to have never died -- those 30' cure spells may be able to save a front-line fighter or two from certian death while keeping you nice and safe in...

0th level spells are considered level 0.5 for the purposes of item creation. So, spell level x caster level x 25 gp = 0.5 x 1 x 25gp = 12.5gp market value. But, it costs half of that to create the item. So, 6.25gp + 1xp to create a 0th level scroll with a caster level of 1. -Eraslin

I'm presently playing a 3.0 transmuter, and my favourite's a toss up between extend and chain. Extend is awsome for buff spells (the animal buffs, GMW, keen edge, etc). Chain spell is very useful in a utilitarian manner. Chained enlarges, reduces (chain reduce + teleport is very nice)...

Do the bonuses from dodge/mobility and total defense not stack? I was assuming that they did, but I don't have my books nearby to check. -Eraslin

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but a character with mobility and/or dodge still has quite an advantage over someone without the feats. The character with the feats could still have up to an additional +5 to his/her AC when moving through threatened areas on the defensive. Could be quite the...

Nice list of spells. Though, this one seems one level too high in my opinion. Granted, I don't recall the duration of "Blur", but this seems like a weaker version of the blur spell. -Eraslin

Very nicely written. I'm rather surprised that the dragon didn't teleport, or dimension door, away when the battle started getting ugly. Being a 20th level sorcerer, and all.... -Eraslin

Indeed, very nice list. Some corrections, though. -You have the change for "Burning Hands" that it was originally 2nd level. It's always been 1st level, it just used to be transmutation. -You have 3.0 Bestow Curse listed as "changed to transmutation", but it was changed to necromancy. - 3.5...

Oh yes, sorry. The L1 version is the only one with a 1/2 die progression. The L2+ versions are the listed damage dice per caster level. So, a 10th level caster would do 5d3 with the first level spell, 10d3 with the second level spell, 10d4 with the third, 10d4+10 with the fourth, and 10d6 with...

Good thoughts, I hadn't even considered that the damage listed is untyped. We don't tend to encounter very many creatures with any sort of energy damage reduction, so I tend to forget that it exists. ;) As for flavour, the point of the spells is to be a line of damaging transmutation spells...

Hi all, I'm trying to come up with a new line of single-target damage spells for the transmutation school. Here's what I've come up with . I'm pretty comfortable with the damage levels for the level 1 through level 3 versions of the spell, but I'm unsure on the damages for the level 4 and 5...

Yah, I don't know what I was thinking. I guess I was just trying to justify the neato image of five magic missiles blasting into someone then another 5xmin{Clvl,#targets} weaker missiles firing off to strike other targets within range. Think I might just have to research another version of magic...

Greetings all, I'm trying to determine whether the chain spell feat from T&B can be used on the magic missile spell. I'm thinking that it can, but the chained magic missile cannot have it's missiles split amongst multiple primary targets. That is, for the chained magic missile all N of the...

Greetings, I'm in a game at this very moment, and we're trying to figure out how one would go about casting a spell with a verbal component while underwater -- without the use of metamagic. Our first guess was to utilize the water breathing spell, but said spell only confers the ability to...

I'm not 'from' Edmonton but, I presently live there. -Eraslin

I just looked up Rope Trick in the 3.5 SRD. It contains this note at the end:

I can't imagine that it would make a difference whether the bag of holding was opened or not. For instance, if you put a bag of holding inside another bag of holding then the world dies; or something like that. Regardless of whether the one inside is open. Simply placing one extradimensional...
