The store is in Abington and has an awesome community of gamers, many of which are constantly looking for a new game or group to get involved in. The link to...

    Bane - Bows and Arrows

    Just quickly skimmed through the thread. so forgive me if i mis-read anything. If the current debate is whether or not an Outsider (lawful) Bane Longbow firing an Outsider (evil) Bane Arrow deals an additional 4d6 i think the answer is yes. I do not think these are "like" bonuses. I view it...

    Identify the Major Damage-Dealing Prestige Classes

    Incantatrix is a pretty nice damage dealer (amoung other things), especially at 15th and beyond. If you rule Arcane Thesis to reduce each metamagic by 1 level (minimum of +0, none of this +-1 BS) you can set up some seriously painful orbs or whatever else you want.

    Defeating a Balor

    I was under the impretion that the 3.5 Blasphemy didnt need to be heard in order to take effect? Doesnt it just need to be said? I guess if the Balor is actually inside a silenced area it would work.

    How do you tell a fellow player he can't pick a particular feat for his PC?

    Bingo. This thread is kind of interesting though. Has D&D really evolved into a game where players and/or parties HAVE to make combat effective choices with their characters at all times? Having no room for players to take the "flavor" feats is kind of sad and really takes away from the RP...

    Casting Time: 1 round vrs. full round action?

    I mis-read this the first time. It definetly does clear it up. You have an increidbly good point there that i have overlooked. 1 round casting time means the ENTIRE round!! Full round means your entire turn. Duh!!

    Casting Time: 1 round vrs. full round action?

    The reason this came up is two-fold. First, Channeled Pryoburst from the PHBII pg. 106 has an option for "full-round action" Heres the text: Can the full-round version be cast as a full round action, just like a sorcerer would cast a metamagic spell, or is it cast as a 1 round action? Even...

    Casting Time: 1 round vrs. full round action?

    Several spells have casting times of "1 round" and others have the casting time of "full round action." Are they the same or different? At first i thought they were indeed different, then i changed my mind, and now ive changed it back again. Reason for my confusion: In Chapter 8: Combat...

    Cookie Cutter Melee "Beat Stick" Builds

    Thanks for the help so far. Those suggestions are great. I am actually looking for PC builds. Im aware that theres all kinds of crazy multiclassing divine gish type builds, but thats ust not my style. I like a much more vanilla character and i rarely see builds are that more or less...

    Starting Shackled City AP and need advice

    A charisma Paladin would fit nicely, although its a pretty melee heavy group at that point. A wizard would be a solid addition too. You could even build one that can heal. If the sorcerer is going to be the blasty type, a healing, buffing generalist wizard is a really good idea.

    Should Psionics be part of the core in 4th edition?

    Nope. Give them their own rulebook please.

    Cookie Cutter Melee "Beat Stick" Builds

    Im looking to get a collection of some "standard" melee fighter-type builds that have their focus around dealing lots of damage. The more vanilla the better. Specifically, I'd like to focus on characters that wield two-handed weapons and do not make massive use of Prestige Classes. I would...

    Balance and Rules

    I consider balance, but I also consider other factors. Characters and character development is a very large factor. Like another poster said, our group is much more likely to allow things if there is an in game reason for wanting it, and a good one at that. Many of the things we have decided...

    Persistant Spell Feat

    To ban an entire book over the 1 or 2 poorly written/tested feats, powers, spells, abilites, classes, or whatever is a bit much. Saying, "I have to either allow it all, or ban it all" seems ludicrous to me. Where a given thing comes from has zero impact on the rest of the stuff from the same...

    Do you use psionics in your games?

    No psionics in our home game. The DM and players have experienced psionics ruin games, and very much disagree how the current pisonic rule system (and several of the most popular powers) fits into the world. It simplely lacks the same flavor it used to have in the past. We do agree there...

    Best Archer Build?

    Korak, is that build within the budget for a lvl 12 guy? (honest question) Edit: Im extremely picky about archer builds, but i really like this one. Its the first one ive seen that i can say that about. Also, what would you recommend trading the level in EMW for if you dont like the flavor...
