    Selling my 3rd edition Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting Book.

    I know my luck with these kind of things isn't usually too good. Though I do hope I manage to get that Monster Manual from there.

    D&D 4E Reconsidering Pathfinder over 4E

    I am going to break the norm here and suggest you try a slightly house-ruled 3.5 game instead of the other two options. Also, instead of starting a flame war, I am going to be say my view as shortly as possible: "Do not blindly follow the words of others. Make a deeper analysis of all choices so...

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    Well...I found the links for the PDFs. The sad news is that they do not work anymore. As for the actual description, it looks like some abilities were missing or then they were hidden with some kind of spoiler tags. Either way, I wonder if using an edited Paladin would require you to tweak the...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Using the Pathfinder RPG Advanced Player's Guide in a v.3.5 campaign?

    I would say that if you have the time and patience to tweak the stats on some of the stuff there to fit 3.5, then you're going to be just fine. If not, then you might as well leave it at that. I myself am slightly biased against Pathfinder, but those are mostly due to personal reasons and due to...

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    I would not say that Dandu was really trolling. I find most, if not all of his points to be either valid or at least making sense in context (though of course, airwalkrr's points and arguments are of equal value here as well). To me it seemed more like a debate over Paladin ability than an...

    Reactions to D&D.

    I would first like to inquire about where you live. Because around here in Finland, nobody (except jocks, maybe) will call you out for being a D&D player, let alone whine to you if you read a D&D book in the library. Heck, the books can't even be borrowed usually because someone else has already...

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    I would have wanted to discuss the Paladin further, but I guess talking about giving fixes to Fighters works just as well. Anybody here familiar with some kind of homebrew stuff called Races of War? It seemed to have somekind of huge upgrade/boost on the Fighter, but no boost to Paladin (unless...

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    Thanks for the tip, but...the link is broken or something. It keeps redirecting me into making a reply on this page.

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    Okay, now you (Alexander123) are just jumping into pointing fingers. And I did not dismiss Dandu's idea. Actually, I like it the most out of all these ideas. And after some thinking, I might as well go with it. And either way, I will say this again...THE FACT THAT WHETHER THINGS IN D&D ARE...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Alignment restrictions. (3.5)

    Look at how Eberron deals with the whole alignment system. They still use alignments, but from what I have heard (I have yet to play in an Eberron campaign, and I have yet to DM one too), it is not as bad as the default settings are.

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    I think you are also de-railing from the point of this thread. So, could you please address the actual issue instead of starting an arugment about adding realism to a game where magic and such things like the Mind Flayer actually exist? Because really, we discussed the Paladin stat-wise, not...

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    I do know of the lack of realism that comes with the alignment system, but even a friend of mine with a similar view says this: "Paladin just IS Lawful Good. It's just how they were made to be played, and even though I would normally not use alignments, I would not change that part of the...

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    I guess I would say it's the feel of playing that holy warrior who happens to be a paragon of virtue and righteousness. I get that only with Lawful Good Crusaders, and even then the fact that they CAN be evil knocks it all down to "Generic Zealot" class instead of "Badass Holy Warrior". But...

    List of Celestial Types

    What I know from my memory just now are Archons, Angels and...what were the third ones again? Eladrin and Guardinals? Sorry, it's some 02:10 am here and I am feeling very tired. Also, are you asking Specific Creatures, or just types and/or sub-types of Celestial beings?

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    Well, the problem with using Pathfinder as a solution for this situation comes here (for my campaigns at least): If I ask for a Pathfinder Paladin, the rest of the group will want Pathfinder versions of their own classes as well, which leads to the Paladin being on square one when it comes to...

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    The only problem is that the Crusader "kinda" lacks the Paladin feel to it. Unless you tweak it a bit, like putting the "Lawful Good only" requirement of a regular Paladin on it and some other cool stuff (maybe?). Otherwise, the Crusader is just a Paladin knockoff with no divine magic who just...

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) The Paladin Sucks? Also, how to fix it?

    Okay, I couldn't help but notice this being said here and there while I surfed around the internet, but I can't keep it out of my head now that I have seen it: The paladins in 3.5 suck, they say. And now I ask: How much do they exactly suck? Are they on the Monk's level of fail? Also, how do...

    [REDACTED]

    Sorry for beating the dead horse back to life, but I couldn't help but notice that nobody bothered to reply here. And what do I have to say? I can see that clearly you have put an effort into making these monster classes fun to play for Players, and balanced them as such. I don't really have...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Vassal of Bahamut and Paladin build (3.5)

    Update with sad news...the DM has called off the game. She doesn't have time to arrange a game thanks to Real Life... (CURSE YOU JOBS AND EDUCATION SYSTEM!!) This basically means 1.) The paladin I had been planning out will probably never be put to play outside some lame RPs on MSN or...

    Munchkin Monk Build

    I actually find that guide to be somewhat helpful (actually not...), and very darn amusing. Of course, not everyone can agree on everything. Also, magic items are something EVERYONE USES. It's almost a fact, with the exception being low-fantasy settings or magic-dead ones. Also, why are you so...
