Hello all, I was just curious. If a rogue were to be hasted, and decided to use his partial action to perform a feint. Then, used a full attack on the enemy. How many of the full-attack's attacks would ignore the opponents dex? Reading the bluff skill description for feint, my hunch is that...

IIRC, you remove any racial modifiers that you have to said stats, then add the new racial modifiers. ex: You're an elf: +2 dex, -2 con You are polymorphing into an Ogre: +10 str, -2 dex, +4 con Your stats, as an elf, are: str 10, dex 14, con 8 Remove elven racial modifiers: str 10, dex 12...

Feeblemind I'm one of the fans of Feeblemind. Used on strong fighter-types, it can be quite useful in stopping them from using any tactics. Then there are the obvious uses in disabling opponent spell-casters. Mind fog is also kinda neat as a gateway to lower level spells with a will save (ex...

I like it. I like it, it has a good flavour -- I can just picturing the hovering disks zipping around intercepting attacks, and generally annoying the attacker. A clarification question, though: "You create 2 disks and 1 extra for every 3 caster levels above caster level 3, to a maximum of...

Awakened Donkey Donkey: Ohh, this is gonna be fun. We can stay up late, swappin' manly stories, and in the mornin'... I'm making' waffles! -Eraslin

Dojo Kun It's just as applicable outside of the dojo: -Seek perfection of character. -Be faithful. -Endeavor to excel. -Respect others. -Refrain from violent behaviour. Okay, maybe not that last one so much (in character)... :D -Eraslin

Something you might want to consider if you dislike having to scribe spells at such a high cost. The group that I'm in uses uses a formula of 5 + (SpellLevel)^2 gp per page of a spell. So, instead of costing 100gp to scribe a cantrip (cantrip's are 1 page) it'll cost 5gp. Instead of 200gp for a...

Hello there, You'll have to excuse my ignorance, but what's the matter with the specialist as it is? I've built (& played) a number of specialist wizards, and I've not had a problem with them. The only thing that I can think of which would make them better would be to give them the feat Spell...

Hello there Dr.Midnight, I'm sorry to hear that the night was rather cruddy, to say the least. I'm sure that some people will tell you that you should just forget about her, and I'm sure that some will tell you that you should still try to see her again. I really want to be in the later group...

Hey there Dr.Midnight, Sounds like things are starting to go quite well. I just had one suggestion for you. If she's coming over make certain that your bathroom is spotless. I'm not sure what it is about women and bathrooms, but a lot of the women that I've known (including my girlfriend) are...

Hello there, If you want an encounter which'll likely give them a fair bit of hurt, and you can justify a mid/high level wizard and a few of his buddies wanting the party dead (even if it's just for their items). What you'll need: 1 7 (or 8th) level wizard(conjurer) 4-5 fighters (lvl 4 or...

Hello, I pretty much agree with Pielorinho, it's no fun to be punished. I don't claim to know where your game is going, or exactly why the player is sick of her current character. But, I've had players who have genuinely become tired of the character that they're playing (due to the character...

Hello all, I pointed out this thread to a friend of mine, and he wanted me to post the following. ------------------------------------------------------ Hello. I am the 11-year practitioner Eraslin mentions, and I am not a member so he is posting this for me. Most of what's been said here...

Hello, Indeed this is an interesting discussion. As adndgamer points out, yes a stepping Shotokan punch can be slower than a typical shoulder punch. It's all in the practice though. I, personally, can rifle off a reverse punch or a forward jab much faster, and with far more power, than a...

Karate punches. Hello there! First, I can't stress Enforcer's point more. Make sure that you strike the bag with only your first two knuckles (index & middle), and make sure that the two knuckles form a straight line with your forearm when you strike. I've heard of people breaking their own...

My first character, some 10 years ago now, was an elven wizard named "Merlin" (I was in early highschool) done in AD&D 2nd ed. IIRC, he was started at 3rd level (since that's where the group was), and was abandoned at almost 6th level. I played him when I was actually trying to be clever with...

Hello all, I was just looking at the Mage of the Arcane Order prestige class in Tome & Blood. I've a question, does a Mage of the Arcane Order, who multiclassed from a wizard, gain the usual 2 new spells at level up? Obviously, if the character were to take a wizard level the answer would be in...

I know that Chapters and McNaly Robinson Booksellers have been selling RPG material ever since the initial outbreak of 3e, at the least. I've actually purchased some things from them, as they occationally had things in before the one good game store back in Winnipeg; plus that 10% chapters club...

Congradulations. I wish you, your new son, and your wife all the best. -Eraslin

I know this should probably be in the rules forum, but it's more likely to be answered here quicker. In my game, tonight, I've a character who's going to be multiclassing into the paladin class. In the PHB, the lay on hands ability says that the character may heal a number of hit points equal to...
