Stupid to how much of the table? Generally, gms are outnumbered. Plus, if it's really stupid, the character with high int or wis would likely realise that IC, or is thinking entirely on the heads of the players? Also, there are people who don't play for the ever-present impending doom and...

It seems like you are saying that fluff doesn't matter at all. Which, in a particular light is true, but... In my experience, I've not ever ran across someone playing dnd who's there entirely for the mechanical idea. I've never seen the player who'd be fine with their character being a large...

Or, if you really want to lock it down, steal shamelessly the Lunar Exalted method of it. Make the druid ritually kill a given animal to be able to assume their shape at a later date. That way, they would have to actually encounter whatever animal form you don't want them to have.

He does, as dual implement spellcaster has the same prereq. However, two weapon fighting is a prereq, so extra feat again.

Huh, requires offhand to not hold a weapon or a shield. Nothing about an implement. Go bladesingers with a spear and orb! Chaaaaaaaarge~

What sort of implement chease is the player trying to pull? If not using staff fighting with a rod of ruin, he can use rhythm blade parrying dagger to get the offhand shield bonus, cept better then light sheild. Needs 2 feats, prof parrying dagger and arcane implement prof light blades though...

In the game I'm in a within level + or - 1 damage dealer using new damage math can knock 1/4 to 1/3 of a player's hp off if they are squishy class hp. (we are level 5) I do say that it's actually a fairly common occurrence assuming 3-4 monsters can sidestep the defender. In my experience...

Auto violate palidin mark. With certain pali's, that means weakened as well as damage, plus they might hit themselfs too. There are several builds that make violating marks a really bad idea, being able to make an enemy standing next to the fighter do it with an at will with no further setup...

Are all controllers supposed to be not targeted? It's infrequent at heroic levels that a single defender can stop the traditional 5 or 6 enemies all the time from getting to whoever they feel like in say an outdoors encounter. Or a large cave. Or pretty much anything without a convenient choke...

Where, if anywhere, does it say that you can or can not hit yourself with a melee basic attack. Same with a targeted burst? This comes up occasionally with the dominate status, the hypnotism power and similar.

Not true. Second wind plus heal back to full from being dropped is 5 surges. 6 if you got a cleric heal as well. Extremely likely if you are a squishy that gets surrounded. Unless you squishes never get surrounded or dropped. Also, I guess if you have the healing surge moving ritual, but that...

Thing is, generally speaking the gm gets to play other gendered people. If not, that leads to some interesting world-building gender roles. Really, that particular thing is just silly, as it tends to mean just 'I prefer that guys play guys' as people tend to be more uncomfortable that a girl is...

If you don't mind brain-hurtingly bad, the BoEF has stuff like that.

Cold Steel: On the tactical and raw effectiveness of sub-zero weaponry for combat distraction and additive grievous harm.

After a few levels, main plait enchantment -1 summoned plate becomes nightwear. Bam. Minor action and -1 to ac only. Since it's a level 6/11/16/21/26 armor, it's as cheap as you can get the enhancement bonus anyway. Also, enhancement bonus is necessary for game math, remove it without...

A few of them are 'good' for a given build. But the same can be said of quite a few normal feats. Remove the "Also gives you a glowing mystical prophecy tattoo" property and they are just feats. It's a home game, fluff isn't fixed. Evaluate whatever is being tried, and if it's obnoxious to your...

If nothing else, they were working together too well and should be killed for being communists.

And, as a cha user and a healer, they can eaisly 'also vampire' plus 'also blackguard' or some divine class to get 'also ignores daylight/radiant vulrn'. More hilarity ensues if you have encounters from more than one power source to use the 'you can get a healing surge with your encounter'...

You'd be more effective with expertiese, with all of one base assumption: are we talking about a warlord that swings and are we talking at upper heroic or higher? There are things better then +1 to hit, not terribly many, but there are, when it gets to +2, there really isn't better. +3 is right...

5% aboslute. If you are hitting 50% of the time, 5% more is 10% of what you have. Also, at epic its 15% absolute. Same 50% normally, it's 30% more hit. Assume you 'need' it to hit half the time in epic, you have a base 35%. That's 42.8ish percent of you base that you get added for a feat...
