    Animal companions

    The only other list I know of is the new Sandstorm book. It offers about another 10 new companions to choose from. I don't have the book, I simply recall seeing it when I was thinking of buying it. Also the Master Equipement book has a Climb Dog, and it mentiones how it can be used as an...

    Carrying Capacity of Items

    Hey thanks Patron.

    Material Components

    I concur. A good reason why this is, is it would be too easy to constantly resurrect dead characters. You've got to make it somewhat difficult (and expensive) somehow. Or else, the characters would be effectively immortal (unless the clerics are killed). And yes, I am taking into account the...

    Carrying Capacity of Items

    I could have sworn I saw a table, at least in the PHB 3.0, that listed all the weights of a Backpack, sach, belt pouch, etc. More importantly, it showed how much they could carry (in volume) as well as "full" weights for some items (like a waterskin). However, I now have the 3.5 version of the...

    Advice needed on tactics

    The "problem" may not be with your character or your party. If you are finding yourself almost useless most of the time because the rest of the party destroys every bad guy (or almost everyone) before you get a chance to do anything, it may be because the bad guys the DM is throwing at you are...

    Casting and Fighting

    This is my first attempt at a custom feat. What do you all think: Swordcaster You are skilled at blending your spells with melee attacks Prerequistes: Combat Casting, Base attack 6+, Ability to cast 2nd level spells Benefits: When using a full-attack option, you may cast a spell and...

    D&D 3E/3.5 The bastard sword in 3E

    Well it is a bigger weapon and thus more damage. If any character can wield it, it should do the same base damage, with the exception of Strength. Of course masterswordsmen would be able to use it more effectively, hence the inclusion of Weapon Focus, Weapon specialization, etc. I always had...

    D&D 3E/3.5 The bastard sword in 3E

    Keep in mind any weapon wielded two-handed adds 1.5 times the Strength modifier to damage. So a bastard sword wielded by a Str 18 character would deal 1d10+4 in one hand or 1d10+6 in two-hands. So essentially they thought of that already.

    Shifters and wild shape

    Do you think that the Shifters' abilities are too powerful? The complete adventurer book has in it, the Master of all Forms class, which is an updated version of the shifter. Although the "MoaF" class gains a few things faster than the shifter, it is considerably less powerful. It does not...

    2 quick questions on spells

    1) When looking at a spell with an area effect, such as a fireball, it is generally assumed this works in 3-dimensions? That is, a fireball with a 30 ft radius, also extend 30 upward? Of course, this raises several complexities, since if you treat the fireball as a sphere, it would extend 30 ft...

    Endure Elements

    I would say that they would have to consume a normal quantity of water. And even if they did, if they can cast endure elements, I would hope they cast Create water, which should provide them with plenty of water for a day (of course they need to have something to carry it).

    New animal companions

    Does anyone know a good way a find the minimum level needed to acquire animal companions that are not listed. I tried classifying a dire snake based upon CR, which is 4. By that comparision, it should go into to the 7th+ bracket, yet if you compare its abilities and what it can do to the other...

    Druids and metalls

    Our fix is that according to Forgotten Realms, druids who choose Meilikki as their patron are allowed to use any weapon or armor allowed to rangers. There are also other armor that function like studded leather (same AC bonus) but use other materials. Quintessential Druid has Dire Leather...

    Rogues flanking at range?

    Has anyone considered the prestige class: Order of the Bow Intitiate? She gets a ranged sneak attack ability. But also, she has the ability to shoot her bow at an adjacent target without provoking an AoO. Technically I think she still couldn't flank someone with her bow, even if she is...

    Druid/monk & entangle

    My group generally accepts the fact that entangle could work just about anywhere. If you are underground, there is bound to be tree roots, moss, and other plant material around. The same might apply to a desert environment, of course if you are in a place with nothing but sand, it won't work.

    Spell duration clarification

    I need a quick clarification about a spell's duration. Say you cast a spell that has a duration in number of rounds (lets say 5 rounds for argument sake). Lets also say that you lost initiative and therefore act last in the round. When you cast the spell, per the rules of attacking with spells...

    Multiattack... Am I losing my mind?

    Hey, thanks NexH. The reference to the multiattack as a 9th level druid must have been where I originally read the rule (I can't imagine why I couldn't find it later though).

    Multiattack... Am I losing my mind?

    I could have sworn I read somewhere that if a monster has only 1 attack and takes the Multiattack feat (and yes I AM aware of its prerequistes), that it would instead again an additional attack with its one weapon. I double-checked later (every source I could find) and found that I was wrong...
