    How to stop player whining? Drama!

    I'm totally using the checkers reference if he "gets screwed" again.

    How to stop player whining? Drama!

    @ Janx: Exactly. That is a really good explanation of RPGs. I just may print what you said and share it with the player.

    How many RPGs do you play?

    I only play in two right now. A Western Steampunk game that's 3/4 D&D 3.5 and 1/4 home brew rules. I also play a solo D&D 3.5 game. I used to DM 3.x D&D forever, and have also played BESM (best system ever for making original characters), and a little World of Darkness. I tried Champions once...

    Most AWESOME character moment EVER!

    Well I could easily separate this into combat, role-playing, one-liner, amazing skill check, ect. But I'll just keep it to one. Mine would be finding the lost dwarven city of Goldenforge, in order to remake a powerful magic sword on their rune-forge. I flew a flying ship into the Northern...

    How to stop player whining? Drama!

    Update! Another player and I sat down and talked with him over some wings. We asked what the deal was last time we played, and if everything was cool, what can we do to fix the problem. Basically he didn't think he was complaining, and his feelings were hurt that I said he was. He's used to...

    How to stop player whining? Drama!

    Thanks for all the advice so far guys. Good stuff, really helpful. I really like what Mesh Kong said about the Dm giving him more direction, because our DM IS extra open ended, so that should help with NPC interaction. To answer a few questions: I am NOT the DM, but I am the most experienced...

    How to stop player whining? Drama!

    I guess I should've mentioned, what's weird is that he IS enjoying himself. (Before the last incident I guess). The game is really fun, the last session was just super awkward.

    How to stop player whining? Drama!

    Alright here's the deal: I'm playing in a Western Steampunk game using for the most part 3.5 D&d rules. Really fun game. One issue we have though is a player who complains constantly about anything that happens to him. The player is a really good guy, one of my best friends. An EXCELLENT...

    Most powerful feat ever?

    Most powerful feat ever?

    In your opinion, what is the strongest, most overpowered, broken feat out there? Or just the best feat ever. Or feat combos. I think Greenbound Summoning takes the cake. Just on the fact that your summoned creatures can cast wall of thorns. PLUS all the sick bonuses they get? I don't know how...

    This can't be right.

    No, those comments are helpful. I think a watered down greenbound is in order. I knew it would be bad, but not this ridiculous. It really starts to show once you get the d4 animals in a cast. Combined with Ashbound, that's a lot of critters that are around for a while. In my defense, the DM...

    This can't be right.

    Thanks all for the support, I knew I'd get it. As for the whole character deal, yep, Greenbound Summoning. Ashbound and augment summon as well. The character is a monster to deal with just becuase I summon tons of tough greenbound, and just overwhelm with numbers. We have some pretty...

    This can't be right.

    So my DM has a lot of strange house rules that work against us. It sucks, but it's not too big of a deal, and it's a fun game. And, well, he's the DM, and what he says goes. (To his credit he also has some houseruled stuff that helps us a lot as well.) But this time I think he's gone too far...

    Augment Summon with wands?

    So I have a druid summoner character with the Augment Summon and Greenbound Summoning feats. I also have a wand of Summon Nature's Ally I. Now I thought that if I summon something with my wand, it should get the benefits of Augment Summon and Greenbound Summoning, but my DM says they shouldn't...

    RHoD Problem: Koth got away

    And thanks Merlin, those are some good ideas. Much obliged.

    RHoD Problem: Koth got away

    Yeah, I was pretty shocked as well. THe minotaur did a lot to one PC, and they were worn down a LITTLE, but still. He just flew around where they couldn't hit him, firing away lightning bolts (that I rolled REALLY high damage for). Those CMW potions were put to good use. And our party is a...

    RHoD Problem: Koth got away

    Yep, he escaped with the maps. The party had an incredibly easy time time with the manticore and scrubs, and the party samurai almost one-hit the minotaur, but Koth beat the living HELL out of them. 2 deaths, 1 pc in negatives, and the two survivors just hanging on. And that's with a lot of...

    Why is there no dwarf-hate?

    Because Dwarves are just @!^#%*$!ing awesome, that's why!

    Need 1st level adventure recommendation

    Can't go wrong with "A Dark and Stormy Knight", free on the wizards site. Really cool way of getting the party together.

    Tell me about your best (and worst) campaign endings

    I've never had any particularly memorable ending to a campaign, good or bad. We've always just stopped at the end of an adventure once we've grown bored of the campaign, or we just can't do it anymore due to other reasons. However, THIS has to be the coolest ending I've ever heard of...
