Yea, I know a druid could do it. But I'd prefer to run a cleric for several reasons. I just emailed my DM my question and it's up to her. I'm crossing my fingers.

The point is moot and tangential at best. In order words, your telekinesis example is a whole other ball of wax and does not help illustrate your belief about how using boots of flying is a mere mental command. I would argue that properly using boots of flying - in addition to simple mental...

So I rolled some fat numbers for a backup character for a campaign I'm in and I was thinking about running a cleric of Kossuth that would eventually become and elemental archon. I checked out Faith and Pantheons (haven't bought it yet) and it looks like a great prestige class. Then, I found this...

I've got to put a vote in for Faiths & Pantheons. I mean...HELLO! I'm all about deities (despite being an athiest in real life - funny, huh?) and Faith and Pantheons has really got it's shiz together.

I will definitely take a look. I loved Hero Quest but I don't want another game exactly like it. Hopefully players can customize their PCs to an extent - and hopefully the learning curve isn't too steep. I too have friends that like to play DnD but don't have the time for campaigns. This board...

I would definitely dock him for arguing against your DC - he should hold those kind of comments till the end of the game and his rules-lawyering ruins the game for other players that want to keep up the role-playing atmosphere. In the future, illustrate your displeasure by increasing the DC in...

I'll put in a vote that a held person with boots of flying cannot continue to fly. Essentially he stops where he is and hovers there until the spell ends or he is killed like the low-wisdom dumbass that he is.

I'm going to have to put in a vote for this version: 2) Begin casting Charm Person Target BBEG I become visible because targetting the BBEG counts as an attack. BBEG sees me pop out of thin air, and thinks I am a threat. BBEG rolls save (and succeeds because he now gets +5) Personally I agree...

I said 5 rounds. Pretty amazing how quickly people can kill each other, huh - just 30 seconds!

Re: Re: Re: craft times brooop?:D Nice sound effects. Seriously, you have a point. But that still doesn't solve the problem of it being a story killer. I view crafting jaunts by PCs as intermissions that are unnecessary - I mean, why does the PC have to craft this thing? Are there not...

Re: craft times My problem with this is that I don't play PCs in DnD that forever live to make a profit. My adventurers like to do just that - adventure. If someone wants to sit in town for months and make something cool - even if it turns around a 200% profit, then bah-bye. I can understand...

pawned79 - great story, and I really mean that. But your main character - translated into DnD - would basically be a fighter or a rogue with ranks in the "profession (blacksmith)" skill. I mean, your main character didn't actually do any crafting...which is really what my beef is with. I don't...

I hope they increase the number of spells known as well as the speed of the progression. I have a problem with the bard only knowing 4 1st-level spells until he is like level 16 or something. It would be nice if he could know 5 a little sooner.

Fair enough, Kahuna. All I can say is that I am currently adventuring with one such "travelling, adventuring craftsman" and it's pretty irritating. We almost never go more than a day's worth away from the capitol city of this particular region (and you can fault this in part on the DM, though...

Uh....I'm all about the storytelling aspect of the adventure. But as for the 'story' that involves a craftsman....what's to tell? "I, Melgor, am a craftsman from the trade district of Waterdeep. I've grown under the tutelage of Balgor my father, who learned the trade from his father before...

Disagreement to follow..... If ANYthing, the craft skills are too user-friendly. Magic weapons, armor, wands, rods, etc. etc. do NOT grow on trees. In reality they take a LOT of energy, money and time to create - and they should. Some craftsmen are a) lucky to make even 1 magic item in their...

I just want to put my vote in for your actions being OK by me. The situation you presented did NOT exclude anyone. It excluded the use of ARMOR. Your real life "friends" that got mad need to be reminded that they are PLAYER CHARACTERS not PLAYER ARMORS. They also need to stop coveting their...

I'm just wondering. Every person that puts out there character and is like: look at this! usually takes a level of sorc/wiz so they can get the toad familar (+2 CON). I mean that is just lame. And realistically, toads wouldn't be very good familiars. They need to be wet most of the time, they...

So I'm a new tabletop gamer - played many PC Dnd RPGs (there's some acronyms for ya) from the Gold Box games up to Icewind Dale 2. Good times. Anyway, from what I can tell my DM allows the PCs (us) to purchase pretty much anything in the DMG - though I should mention we are currently and often...

Can't only HUMANS take Luck of Heroes? I'm pretty sure that's a fact.
