    WotC recognizes psionics and ki are the same

    Nor would I. I've considered in the past allowing Monks to take Psionic feats. Certainly feats like Up the Walls and Psionic Fist seem appropriate to the Monk . . . . It would also help make more sense of the Monk having Concentration as a class skill (ie: for psionic focus). From the same...

    If a weapon were enchanted as per animate rope... (old thread)

    A spiked chain, perhaps? Or perhaps a dagger-whip (as I think it is called)?

    More upcoming titles has been released at the WotC site

    This is what I am worried might occur: an explanation of the Mourning or some of the other mysteries of Eberron. On the one hand, it would be interesting to know the official reason, but on the other hand, it would destroy the ability of the DMs to use their own reasonings and hooks in regards...

    More upcoming titles has been released at the WotC site

    I haven't seen a post about this yet, so I guess I'll start this one. A link to the schedule of releases for 2007 has appeared on the WotC site: April Eyes of the Lich Queen [Eberron, Adventure] by Stephen Schubert, Tim Hitchcock, and Nicolas Logue This super-adventure is for levels 5-10...

    Ever want to pull a "Dawn of the Dead?"

    I recently watched "Dawn of the Dead" with my brother and father. The more recent of the two movies of that name. The undead in the first one - and in many zombie horror flicks - shamble, but the ones in that one charged, jumped, etc. If anything, I think it made them more frightening than their...

    Is RAISE DEAD (etc.) too readily available in most D&D campaigns?

    :blink: Wow, I guess it has been a while since I last had to read that spell description. And I wasn't thinking of Resurrection or True Resurrection. Those also require dust (albeit in greater quantity). Maybe I was thinking of 3e Raise Dead? . . . . Okay, I just checked. In 3e you required...

    Ever want to pull a "Dawn of the Dead?"

    How about these? I made these a bit tougher than I previously suggested, so that they might last a bit longer against a typical mid-level party and more fully horrify a low(er) level party. There is nothing quite like seeing your attack have little or no effect against a relentless foe. Their hp...

    Magic Item Compendium: The Diablo II gems have made their way to D&D!

    Like the Rod of Seven Parts, perhaps? (from what I've heard of it only; I have not played the module). Personally, I'm more curious about their reasoning for one of the more odd rules involved with these new crystals: Creating a +3 rapier and a +1 flaming keen rapier cost the same, but for...

    Is RAISE DEAD (etc.) too readily available in most D&D campaigns?

    I voted yes, but it really depends on the DM. As I recall, Raise Dead is supposed to require a what? 5000 gp diamond? Presuming a gp is somewhat akin to a gold shilling in middle ages England, then the coin would be worth about $90-$100 (based on typical purity and weight, albeit using modern...

    Ever want to pull a "Dawn of the Dead?"

    I've had a couple DMs - each with a very different style of DMing - pull this on me. The first DM was a story-telling type. We eventually realized we were in fact travelling back and forth in time. Same town - just the present time and the days before its destruction. We ended up succeeding in...

    What is your icon?

    You had two different posts on the same page - each with a different cat avatar. Just changing your avatar later would not do that - both would change to the new avatar's appearance. So I presumed you had more than one account and each had a cat avatar. I guess I'm wrong? :heh:

    What is your icon?

    But, is it alive, dead, or half-and-half - in a quantum manner, of course . . . . :lol: Just how many accounts do you have on ENWorld?

    Stat yourself... Off topic?? dunno.

    See my sig . . . I've tied those tests before, been stat'ed a few times as well. Usually it ends up more or less the same: Str penalty (-1 or -2, odd considering I can carry 50+ lbs on my shoulder a hundred paces with no effort, drag 100+ lb containers / boxes a few dozen paces before needing...

    The Archivist in Play? How Good is it?

    I'm still wondering what a party with an Archivist, Bard, Dragon Shaman, and Marshal would be like . . . . :uhoh: :lol: :cool: Would buffing even be necessary for such a party, considering every single one either has an aura or a vocal means of enhancing everyone around them - including...

    What is your icon?

    A scene I found a while back on the net. I chose it because, cut as it is, it appears as if a path leading to a natural portal of branches, etc, the shades of color in the center almost seeming to hint at a building in the distance (and, no, there was no building in the original pic, nor was it...

    DM's: How many PC's getting raise-dead'/resurrections in your campaigns?

    I didn't vote, as the answer depends too greatly upon the nature of the campaign. A high level campaign with a strong religious connection will have perhaps a few, but otherwise the answer is rare (maybe once) or none at all. I raised the level of Raise Dead, Resurrect, Reincarnate two...

    A Warlock-Like Psionicist

    You said that the Psilock's TK strike is less potent than the warlock's similar eldritch blast. What if the Psilock's TK strike dealt damage more readily to objects than a warlock's strike? Perhaps a Least or Lesser Talent might allow it to ignore hardness equal to the Psilock's class level? Or...

    Dungeonscape Answers

    Suddenly I have this vision of a chiwawa sized hydra. :D Or how about a similarly sized pit fiend pretending to be an imp? (Or should that be a balor pretending to be an imp? I forget imp's ethical alignment at the moment.)

    Which is REALLY the best alignment?

    NN (almost chose NG) I almost chose NG, but in the end chose NN. In part this was because of a DM I had years ago. In his opinion, one's stated alignment on their character sheet was what the character *thought* s/he was. The DM kept track of the actions of the character and adjusted it as...

    [Competition] Vote for your favourite map!

    I considered choosing tovokas, but the additions he added to the original map (lakes, new rivers, etc) caused me to pass it by. I nearly chose Rick Hershey, but the lettering seemed too wide, not readily read at a glance. I considered choosing PBartender, but the use of numbers and the...
