My friend has come up with a pretty neat (sick) build, the only thing is he needs a creature that will be able to do it. He is looking for a diminutive or the next category bigger monster that has enough intelligence to be a PC, and is a low Level Adjustment. Any ideas? I will post the build...

Thanks for all the responses, I appreciate it. I'm currently at work now but plan on checking out all these suggestions tonight before the game.

I know that the series is a generic campaign, and that we can customize it to any campaign setting that we want. I was wondering though by default are all the clerics in the modules going to be plain generic clerics (not tied to a specific God, just choosing 2 domains). I'm planning on creating...

Well for a long time our view, as well as others I have heard, think the bard is pretty weak compared to the other classes. I am thinking more of a support character but am looking for various types of things that one can do with a Bard from those who have more experience playing one.

I am thinking of playing a bard in my friends next campaign, and was looking for some potential abilities (feats, alternative class features, etc...) that will make the class more interesting to play. He allows pretty much only the Wizards of the Coast main products, so that tosses out 3rd...

One of my friends put it this way. A high armor class is to make the attacks past the first one less likely to hit. You probably will hit with your first attack, but will miss the second/third and so on ones.

I just got the subscription and am currently reading the two guides, I have a quick question. Are there plans on releasing the actual tables (Like in DMG2) for each affiliation the PC's can belong to. Thanks

The new monster manual format is not what i consider fluff. In second edition a monster might have gotten 2-3 pages of material dealing with ecology, combat, description and such. Now it is a stat block with the abilities listed and a very short description.

I admit my thoughts are not necessarily the best scenario for how big of a company WOTC is. I think I would like to see a middle ground. Steady release of fluff and crunch, not one way or the other.

Another thing I noticed Back in 2nd edition I was a Ravenloft DM My friend Steve was Dark Sun My friend Dave was Forgotten Realms We each had all the books for or corresponding settings. We mainly used just the 3 core books plus the alternative rules (if any) of our settings. At that time...

So which do yourself prefer 1. Say the company has 5 totally different worlds supporting the core D&D ruleset. They release products at a reasonable rate to support these worlds (Adventures, campaign info, etc...) The company also releases on a less frequent basis splatbooks that add some new...

oops I edited the last post, two different thoughts there.

Spell, and Magic Item compendiums came out about the time 2.5 (The various power books) came out. We now have the spell compendium out and magic item compendium out in a bit. I wonder if they are going to have a feat and prestige class one as well...

One of the books I was planning on getting was Complete Scoundrel, then I heard about the Tricks being sort of like minor feats using skill points to buy them. So now you have a feat every three levels, and I believe up to 10 tricks (at level 20). I have a feeling my DM will not allow it. This...

I am wondering if WOTC is falling into a sort of problem that TSR did. Back in the 2nd edition version of D&D it was settings. Tons of settings and accessories was very bad for the market. With 3.x currently I am seeing an avalanche of feats, prestige classes, does not look like it is...

What I am talking about is WOTC telling all developers they can not do add the experience table in any product they release because it violates the license agreement when there were many instances of people using the same xp table chart way before WOTC even put it in their PHB. It is sort of...

I was thinking ending up with 6 fighter/14th wizard. If you look at the classes that offer both martial and casting abilities they never get spells in the 8th level or above range anyway. Yes there are many many many alternatives out there with the 3rd party stuff, however I am again just...

you are right, after re-reading it. I would then reword it, basically letting you cast spells with no failure chance 1 category higher than what you could previous do. This way you would have to take it once for light, again for medium, again for heavy. Remember I want to do this with only...

The original thing I was attempting was getting the dragon husk ability from dragon magic. However that won't work, without rebuying light and medium armor. Basically thinking of a unit of fighter/mages or fighter/sorcerers that wear armor made of dragon skin. Don't think Dragon Armor is...
