Haven't done any updating for awhile, due to my World of Warcraft addiction, but something interesting happened to me the other day when my cable was out. I got out some graph paper (and no, I cannot draw well to save my own soul) and started messing around. I did (a first) an outline of a...

There's a class in the Dragonlance book, called the Mystic (I think), that is pretty much the sorcerer version of a cleric. They only get 1 domain if I remember right (the book's all the way across the room and it's 6 am, so I'm lazy) and cast spontaneously like sorcerers. Their 'known' spell...

Alrighty, I'm going to have my first Eberron game in a few weeks, and I shocked my friends by saying I was going to play a cleric. They still see cleric'n as just a heal-bot bandaid kinda thing. They don't read ENworld like I do muahaha. So.. (I don't know too much about Eberron yet) can you...

I think the people that voted monk are just screwing with you guys.

I voted Bard. No one in any of my games ever uses a Bard. I don't run just hack/slash games, either. My players often find themselves embroiled in politics/social scenarios. Still, in the end, it all comes back to dungeon crawling and they all want to be useful in combat. (I also blame it...

My group is pretty much all for Need before Greed, but they have a good way of selecting loot. I'll give this example (it's a little far-fetched example of loot, but it helps you get the picture.) I the party, there's a Wizard, a Fighter, a Paladin, a Cleric, a Rogue, and a Bard. They just...

With Oversided Two Handed, Exotic Weapon: Bastard Sword, and all of the other feats required for the Tempest prestige class (complete adventurer), can you weild a bastard sword in each hand? I don't see a rule saying you can't, but it seems kinda munchkinish to me. However, a friend of mine...

I was thinking of a symbiotic character for my DnD game, but I was going in a different direction. I was heading more toward the Goa'uld/Tok'ra type in Stargate. I was thinking of an organization that harvests these little things and implants them. I was also thinking along the lines of a PrC...

Where do I DL this from?

I often have 2 PCs and what I do is make a number of NPCs and let them choose 2. I'll never play more than 2 NPCs in the party and I make that clear. Hirling/cannon fodders are different. I often come up with different lines for the NPCs (according to their alignment and int/wis scores) for...

Have the characters retire and start a new game. They can live on as heroes of legend or somesuch.

That's what's so frustrating about it, as they already have the -2str anyway. Just to keep going down in damage really stinks. A medium race's damage output is higher, which to me would be another reason not to play one.

Did any of you just ignore the weapon changes to size? When 3.5 came out, we never had another Gnome or Halfling in our game again(except for one Gnomish wizard heh). Halfling rogues have great racial abilities that go well with rogue, but now that their longsword is like a short sword and...

I don't even know, yet. We're planning a game for mid-Oct, so I'm thinking on it all now. These are some awesome suggestions and good insight for someone like myself who'd never paid the cleric much mind. Perhaps a CG cleric who's intollerant of evil, always trying to convert others, and anal...

A shield can deffinately be considered a weapon. My friend and I did this little 'skit' for halloween about 6 years ago for trick-or-treaters.. we'd get a groupd of about 5-10 and they would be led to the backyard where we were fighting with those hard-foam type weapons. Well, my friend used...

I'd never been a real fan of playing a cleric, and in most groups, we pretty much hired an NPC cleric as a healbot. Reading over the boards, however, I've read that the cleric is pretty uber. plate armor, decent weaponry, d8 hd, good fort+will saves.. yeah, that all looks nice. What 'really'...

Being a huge fan of psionics, I'd played more psion than psychic warrior. Reading this post made me think more about the warmind, so I made a character sheet of what I would do in a campaign. I made it a several levels, so I could see the changes. In the end, I came out with psychic warrior...

Being that I'm not a hardcore-poster, wtf is a 'troll'? When gear is a factor with overpowering, it's easy to get rid of. I had a group 'think outside the box' once and make a ton of money for their level. Well, they buy a bunch of upgrades, and were doing better against encounters for their...

Well, I got my comp back, and it was still royally screwed... and I mean without the lube. So, they gave me another 'loaner' and it only has 256 sd ram. That means that when I play, it's like the end of an action movie where everything is in slow motion. So, I'll be back when I get another...

I've had only 3 characters retire in all of my time playing... My 2e Bard, Narik Gestare, took his enormous wealth and built "Narik's Palace of Pleasure" a hundred or so miles NE of Waterdeep. It was a building that connected several towers, which were used for an odd assortment of things...
