    Variant Spellcasting House Rule

    After having read through Arcana unearthed, I am thinking of implementing my own Variant Spellcasting House Rule. I'd like to combine the Daily Spell List system that Andy Collins proposed on page 153 in Unearthed Aracana with the Spell Point Variant: Vitalizing on page 156. This is how it...

    Avoiding AOO after being tripped

    Crawling! i completly missed the rules for crawling, thank you folks for pointing that out. I don't know whether crawling was an option under 3.0, but it surely never came up since standing up from prone used to be move-equivalent without drawing an AOO. I will tell my players about that rule...

    Avoiding AOO after being tripped

    In our last session I pitted my players against Goblin raiders who were mounted on worgs. For the first time we discovered the deadliness of Trip as it provides an AOO if you want to get up. Some of my players came up with the notion to crawl away in order to avoid the AOO. I could think of...

    Question about the new Hold spells

    Hold Spells I think that Andy Collins alluded to the mechanic on his boards as being similar to stabilizing after being dropped below zero hitpoints. That might mean that additional saves against hold spells will be more difficult than the initial save that failed.

    [3.5E] Latest Revision Spotlight: AoOs

    New AoO Finally! My group is convinced that it provokes an AoO if someone enters a threatened area without charging in. (Threatened Area 5 ft.!) The former description was unclear and it did not help that English is not our native language. I tried to convince them that this was not the...

    [FoP] Heartwarden?

    Diplomacy 6 ranks I just talked to the guy and asked him about how he was able to start at 7th level with the Heartwarden. He told me that he struck a deal with our DM, which made Diplomacy a class skill for his sorcerer. Well, you can't argue with a DM decision, so I guess, it's legal as far...

    [FoP] Heartwarden?

    9th level! Thank you for your comments. I think that if you compare the class to Archmage and Red Wizard, it's even moderate, but we've never played with those classes in our group in first place. But I am pretty sure that my fellow gamer started the class earlier than he should have been...

    [FoP] Heartwarden?

    One member of our gaming group took the Heartwarden prestige class from Faith and Pantheons. He interpreted the class as requiring to be only a sorcerer with Sune as patron and is happily gaining Charisma increases, which the prestige class provides, as he is gaining in levels. Though the...

    Quicker than the Eye + Expert Tactician

    But that seems only to preclude attacks on other opponents, but what about the opponent that your facing? According to the Song & Silence FAQs, you get at least two attacks. How many would you get if you were invisible if that was true?

    Quicker than the Eye + Expert Tactician

    That is what started me thinking on the feat and on the advice that the Song & Silence FAQ suggested. I figured that these free attacks would basically be AoO, which limits the amount of attacks to one for each opponent. I agree that it is impossible to use Tumble in that way, but you could...

    Quicker than the Eye + Expert Tactician

    But if that is the case then I don't understand the Song & Silence FAQ who basically allows to use Expert Tactician more than once per round, which is contradictory to the description of the Expert Tactician Feat. The FAQ talk about a free attack which is caused by "whenever a melee opponent is...

    Quicker than the Eye + Expert Tactician

    According to the Song and Silence FAQ, it is possible to use Expert Tactician more than once in combination with Quicker than the Eye, basically whenever the opponent is denied his Dexterity modifier in melee combat. My question is what would happen if I were a rogue and had Improved...
