    Wizard in Melee, step back and shoot? and staff Q.

    Feel the need to check on something that I think is very straightforwardly allowed in 3.5, but my 8 yr old says just doesn't make sense. Barbarian (with normal 5 ft reach) in melee with a wizard. Wizard's turn. 5 ft step back and away from barbarian, so no AoO, and then whispers a few words and...

    Weapons, Wristbands, and Somatic business

    Dear Sages, In our party we have a Dwarven Cleric, who always holds a shield and wields a one-handed Dwarven Waraxe, and we have a Gnome Illusionist Ranger, who lately has been wielding a nice +2 Mace, and in the other hand, holds the party's Hooded Lantern. Thus, both of our spellcasters have...

    Helping with a Grapple

    Legildur: Are you saying then that, an Owlbear with three normal full attacks is limited to just one during grappling? IOW, on its next turn, it can merely make one claw attack against Courana, at -4? Hyp: I see what you're saying, but it does seem strange that STR is discounted in such a move!

    Helping with a Grapple

    Situation: Owlbear has clawed and successfully begun a grapple against a strong, 2nd level Barbarian, Courana. For his two remaining attacks, I had him claw and biteher, she with no Dex bonus, he with a -4 to hit (while grappling)? Correct so far? Courana's friend, Elrond, str 14, dashes up and...

    Wight, Level Loss and Experience Points

    Good Fellows, Alright, a second level female barbarian was smashing her way through the forge of fury when she was unfortunately whacked by a wight. At that moment, she was 2nd level, but had actually accrued enough XP to get to third level, but they simply hadn't been awarded yet (end of...

    Super dwarves and giants...

    heehehheheeh. oh yeah baby, this is one neutered Ettin! Re: 'real Ettins', just so I know, that's 2 attacks normally, not 4 right? So, yes, this is a polymorphed Cleric, who has retained the clerics hitpoints (only 33), and due to one crazed head and one good head, only gets about +4 on the...

    Super dwarves and giants...

    Yes, I forgot he also has a shield. (this is Eberk, coming out of the basic set, well loaded, and going into 2nd level now, having some fun with 'Ettin's Riddle'. Although, the fun is quickly getting boring, as Eberk is having no trouble whatsoever dispatching the Ettin!) I'm sure I"m just...

    Super dwarves and giants...

    The last thing a newb should do is get into a rules kerfuffle....but... NRBH, but isn't the dwarven dodge vs Giants a +4? Thus, an AC of 23 vs that nasty Ettin? (point taken about stacking AC bonuses, but I still think he's in incredible shape, no?)

    Super dwarves and giants...

    Folks, It seems that a first level dwarven fighter, with full plate and mage armor can easily take on an Ettin.... Unless I've made a mistake: if one loses most of the dexterity bonus to AC, for wearing full plate, does a dwarf in the same situation also lose his racial dodge against giants?

    The Official Welcome Thread

    Newbie, and my first question... Here I am, may the world shudder. and here's my first (simple) question, posting here for now: If a dwarf is wearing full-plate, does he still get his full racial dodge bonus to his AC vs. Giants? (ie, is it Dexterity dependent?) If he does get it, I'm...
