    AFB's, Magic Item Q's

    Sorry, at work (away from books) and another guy and I are debating over magic item creation rules back in forth in email. 1) can anyone clue me in on or point me to the source that gives the max gold value of magic items? I know the max enchantment is +10 for arms and armor (200K and 100K gp...

    Scrying with a Crystal Ball

    Found an odd situation for me and was looking for advice; I'm going to be DM'ing our group and am running them through a dungeon, using the basic idea of the dungeon being a testing ground that a powerful Drow Mystic Theurge will watch their progress through via Crystal Ball - one with Detect...

    MIC: Steadfast Boots

    I think option 1 is perfectly fine. How often do you think or know someone is about to charge you and actually ready an action for it? These boots offer a quick defense against a charge and one attack at double damage is hardly game breaking. As for the price, well the MIC is already well...

    Ranger ACF Question

    well this ACF doesnt replace your combat feats from ranger so at 11 you'd get your combat style and then still get another feat you qualify for (either another combat style or a misc feat) thats why you have to be careful with this ACF - if you multiclass say Fighter 2/Ranger 4(CotW ACF) you...

    Ranger ACF Question

    Thanks guys! The way it was being read was you could pick a misc feat 'as well as' a combat style feat (as in pick on misc, pick one combat, for total of 2)

    Ranger ACF Question

    In Complete Champion, pg. 50, they have the Champion of the Wild alternate class feature for Rangers. Reading through it we're confused, does taking this ACF grant you 1 or 2 feats at each level it takes effect (4,8,11,14)? It says; You can choose any feat from the following list for which you...

    Lost My Marbles Somewhere...

    Thanks for the replies guys! Dandu; this is what I have seen a lot of forum answers for in my internet search for magic items that have displacer beast in some type of description - however I'm sure I read in the italicized text for some magic item that it specifically stated it was made from...

    Lost My Marbles Somewhere...

    So I recently put a build together that had me looking through many books and pdf's from FR stuff, to Races of the Wild, PHBI/II, DMGI/II, Complete Series, Arms and Armor, Sword and Fist etc. In our session last night we ended up killing 3 of 5 displacer beast that decided our camping party...

    Leveling a Pet?

    Thanks! That's what I was thinking, just looking for confirmation/opinions! Wow, being a animal companion significantly increases stats then.

    Leveling a Pet?

    Alright, so as DM I decided one of my players, a Wood Elf, could have an Elven Hound as a pet; the elf "paid" for it, conducted all his training and handle animal rolls, has 10 ranks in handle animal before ability mod etc - and when he gets his 4th level of ranger next at level 8 he's taking...

    Elven Double Bow

    Yeah, seems like someone had a good idea with it for a ranged type build, but they jacked it up in the restriction on even using it... Was just hoping someone else might have successfully tackled this problem or had a fix for it but I guess not... o'well.

    Elven Double Bow

    No, because after your first shot it takes a move action to nock that second arrow again negating your ability to make more than one attack with it. That's what I'm trying to get around with quick draw or rapid reload - rapid reload lets you fire off a light crossbow at your full base attack...

    Elven Double Bow

    So I initially thought the elven double bow was going to be like two weapon fighting for ranged, but I guess rapid shot does that... kinda. Looking at the double bow, it takes a move action to string a second arrow - is there a way to do this faster? Quick Draw or maybe taking the Rapid...

    Help with an Archer build that doesn't suck...

    Cj: that bow sounds awesome but may be banned by my DM for being over-powered/under-priced (even though it follows the magic item building rules), someone else in the group tried that with a ring which came out super cheap. I've looked at Arcane Archer and just feel that was a wasted PrC - it...

    Help with an Archer build that doesn't suck...

    Ok, so the power that be seem to favor certain weapons (and races) over others. Spiked chain over whips, melee (any) over ranged... 80 types of elves… etc. We're in a 3.5 FR game one of our guys is deploying for a while so we're going to put our group on hold and run some new characters in the...

    Called or returning property on a falchion?

    Couple months late but today I was looking for much the same enchantment - my problem (aside from not wanting to lose my own ancestral weapon) is what if your items are stolen? I am under the impression our group DM is looking at having us kidnapped and stripped of our gear - yes this is...

    Need rogue help

    Hmm, for keeping your SA available, there is a Skill Trick that lets you treat an opponent as flat footed if you can tumble through their space to get behind them. Also the Penetrating Strike alternate class feature (replaces Trap Sense) will let you SA anything - though at half SA dice if not...
