    ability tomes + wish?

    Not necessarily. The bottom of the wish description says: As a DM, I'd allow a carefully worded wish to double the inherent bonus of a tome. Of course, he has to get a trustworthy wizard to cast the spell for him. I'd roleplay that VERY carefully. :D "Ok, uhm, I'll pay you 1500gp to cast...

    A paladin's Lay On Hands could be used on more than one person in a round.

    Help planning generalist fighter

    I have a similar concept for my Dwarven Fighter. I also wanted a generalist who could pick up and wield any weapon without prejudice, so I took no weapon specific feats. He's currently 7th, here are his feats: Blind-Fighting Dodge Expertise Improved Initiative Iron Will Lightning Reflexes...

    Readied Actions and Timing

    The rules back your judgement. From the SRD: For the rest of the fight, the combatant's initiative result is the count on which the combatant took the readied action, and the combatant acts immediately ahead of the combatant whose action triggered the readied action. Pretty cut 'n dry. :cool:

    Keen Vorpal

    "Sword of Kas"? Where is that in the DMG?

    Keen Vorpal

    Has this been ruled on before? Can you have a Keen Vorpal weapon? (The obvious being Scimitar. :D)

    Can't sneak attack in dungeons?

    Wow, he's right. This is quoted from the SRD: The rogue must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach a vital spot. The rogue cannot sneak attack while striking a creature with concealment or striking the limbs of a creature whose vitals are...

    Level drain, XP loss, oh my

    If you accumulated 39000xp (going back from 4th to 10th) and are restored, then you are put back to 10th level and get 39000xp on top of that.

    Concentration Question

    Hehe, I've had players try to use that, and my response is, "If you can't be bothered to remember your character's tactics, then neither should I." Come on, you can't expect the DM to know and run 12+ NPCs during combat (spells, abilities, tactics, intentions, plots, etc.) as well as YOUR...

    Quickdraw Feat=Useless

    I play a dwarven fighter who has quickdraw. I actually wind up using it often, but here are two (semi-common) situations where it payed for itself: * The party snuck into a stronghold and ambushed a pack of guards. All went down except for one that was sprinting for an alarm bell. It was my...

    Concealment and Reach

    Re: Re: Concealment and Reach Sorry, I meant someone moving a normal move through the fog, not a 5-foot step. Does the 100% concealment in the 10ft square prevent the monster with reach from making an AOO when they take that last step into the 5ft square.

    Grappling Question

    Suppose you want to initiate a grapple against an opponent. According to PHB p137, the steps for grappling are: 1. AOO 2. Grab 3. Hold 4. Move In Then it says: 5. You and your opponent are now grappling. Do you then go to the "If You're Grappling" section and take one of those actions...

    Concealment and Reach

    If a large creature with reach is in a Fog Cloud (100% concealment 10ft away, 50% concealment 5ft away), do they still get attacks of opportunity against opponents that move from the 10ft square to the 5ft square?

    Sundering items

    Hrmph. It seems an oversight that WotC wouldn't account for damaging natural weapons. A warrior can have his shield sundered and his sword disarmed (hehe, can you tell I play a fighter?), but a 100hp monster can have 99hp hacked away, and yet still take a full attack action to attack with all...

    Sundering items

    Is there ANY way to disable a monster's natural weapon? Suppose you're fighting a monstrous scorpion and the first thing you want to do is make SURE it doesn't sting you, then you can worry about hacking it down. Is there no way to whack off the stinger by itself? That's actually a classic...

    Can you sunder the natural weapons of a monster?

    What 2nd level spell to pick for a sorcerer at 4th level?

    Oh yeah! Endurance is the Wizard's/Sorcerer's heal spell. ;)

    Specialists & Cantrips

    Well, specialists can't cast 0th level spells of their opposition school. If they suffer that penalty, I don't see why they shouldn't get a bonus 0th level spell to compensate.

    What 2nd level spell to pick for a sorcerer at 4th level?

    Easy. Pick Eagle's Splendor. The DC bonus from E.S. stacks with your Spell Focus, so your DC's will be insane.

    Quickdraw and Offhand

    Ah, my bad. I thought for sure I had read somewhere that you could hold something in your shield hand, you just didn't get the shield bonus for the duration that you're holding the item. Oh well. At least I can still put the battleaxe away as a MEA, quickdraw the throwing axe as a freebie...
