    Epic Spellcasting

    I would imagine that works for a mystic theurge as well.

    Undead and Enervation

    After reading the enervation thread, I began to wonder. If an undead uses enervation to gain temporary hps, how many can it get? The spell states that undead gain 1d4*5 hps for one hour. Since the spell stacks, how many temporary hps could a vampire for example receive, given enough warning?

    Debuffing saves without Necromancy?

    I am not sure of what other spells besides enervation are out there. I have a character who is pursuing the Red Wizard path and has chosen conjuration, enchantment and necromancy as prohibited schools. So she has access very few spells that offer no save. Instead I have invested in feats that...

    Can monks get improved natural attack?

    I agree. At the same time the wording of the monk's unarmed attack has given DMs reason to feel it is not suitable for monks. So if your DM says no to the feat he has a reason why he feels that way. Either way DMs can disallow whatever feat or class they wish to.

    Wildshape and permanent greater magic fang

    I would say the spell would work on either form dependent on what it was cast on. If you cast it on the dragon's claw this would be comparable to a person's hand. Conversely if you cast it on their bite attack, a human does not have a bite so it would not work. I would avoid grappling with...

    No love for the ranger?

    I agree that dealing with favored enemies can be difficult. A DM must keep a record of your favored enemies so he can apply the additional damage or adjust your skills accordingly. My DM often uses monsters from d20 books and we have no idea what classification they fall into. Often after a...

    Druid's Trackless Step

    Those are good spells. I believe the spell from SC that you are speaking of is implacable pursuer. Which would work but is a 4th level spell. So one would need to be a 14th level ranger to have it. A blackguard or assassin would have to be 12th level. A bit much to overcome a 1st level...

    The best non-monk unarmed combatant

    There is a class in Dragon callled the Pugilist. I am not sure what month it was in thought. Magic items can help greatly such as merciful gauntlets (slippers of kicking) or the Fist (p.142 Magic of Faerun).

    Druid's Trackless Step

    A question regarding the topic. Is there a feat or spell anywhere that is similar to the ability of the bloodhound (p.30 Complete Adventurer) to track the trackless? I have always found trouble with absolutes in DnD. 2nd edition had the cloak of poisonous or something result put it on-no...

    Master thrower questions?

    I am thinking of pursuing the master thrower prestige class (p.58 Complete Warrior) I was wondering if some of their abilities are usable with sneak attack damage. The two with one blow ability and the weak spot ability are in question, it would seem as if they do. Then again I could see...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Are 3.5 Warlocks unbalancing?

    Well, that damage is without a save. But my damage number is wrong. The damage would be 42. Thanks for the info about the 1/2 damage for secondary targets. Can a warlock only gain SLA or can he get the regular maximize feat and apply it to his eldritch blast?

    D&D 3E/3.5 Are 3.5 Warlocks unbalancing?

    I have not checked the errata but isn't the damage still dependent on the level of the warlock? The only change would be the DC, correct.

    D&D 3E/3.5 Are 3.5 Warlocks unbalancing?

    To edit my previous post. I just saw that the eldritch blast was changed in the errata to be at caster level 1 or the level of the invocation. This allows for metamagic but at the same time, the mazimized eldritch chain can be cast at 14th level and would do 84 points of damage to 3 opponents...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Are 3.5 Warlocks unbalancing?

    I think it would be good to look at the advantages and disadvantages in full. With so many different choices it can be very difficult to see these. So I would like anyone who sees something I missed to please chime in. To start with the basic warlock class advantages and disadvantages. d6...

    wishing for a permanent skill modifier

    How would you regard a wish "to regenerate as a troll, without suffering and mental or physical changes?" We had this happen in our campaign and the DM granted the ability and assigned a LA adjustment. Could not the same happen with the wish for swim speed. Give a +1 LA.

    Bard tactics

    I would imagine a satyr bard to not want to face a large group in combat. He would try to annoy them and then come back at night and use his low-light vision to cast spells on the watch. If there are only 2 or 3 people awake he could chase them off with a fear spell. I would say the best...

    Looking for more artificer infusions

    I am playing an artificer in a homebrewed campaign. I don't have access to dragonshards and we don't use action points. I only have access to the infusions in Eberron Campaign Setting and Magic of Eberron. I am looking for spells to add to his infusion list; such as rusting grasp or minor...

    Help Twinking Out a 12th Level Monk

    I like the idea of your monk being from somewhere else. You should have a great deal of fun encountering the Scarlet Brotherhood, Splintered Mind and Baklunish monks. Enjoy.

    What is cheating?

    To weigh in on the cheating issue. I have seen quite a bit. There are usually action-reaction responses. So figuring out why a player or DM would cheat is the answer to stopping it. Here are some I have seen. Changing a character's stats- hp, ability scores, etc. Often I have seen this...

    Hordes of the Abyss: Q&A

    Although not a big issue but one that could help people who are advancing Demon Lords, should spell resistance be increased an equal amount as HD, rather than have a flat CR +13? For example all of the demon lords have a SR=CR+11 except Orcus and Pazuzu, who are SR=CR+13. Unless this is a...
