    AoO against people out of reach?

    Ok, using Trip, Disarm or Sunder without the relevant "Improved..." feat provokes AoO from the target. But what if you are using a reach weapon? If your opponent doesn't have a reach weapon, it would seem impossible for him to strike at you. Striking the weapon would seem possible though, so...

    Tilted "dungeon"... side-effects???

    I had a portion of tilted dungeon one time that had a low pool of water in the bottom end. Any failed balence check and the charactersslid on down the floor to the pool. It became quite threatening when they discovered the green slime living in the pool though, and making your balance checks...

    Can you change your mind?

    If your action is intereupted somehow before it is completed, can you change your action? For example, if a paladin was charging a monk with a spiked chain, and the monk used his AoO (from the paladin leaving his threatened space at 10') to disarm the paladin of his trusty greatsword, the...

    whoa

    So you can just put a shrunken item into a small container and have the spell duration continue forever?

    Question on Shrink Item spell

    Multiple castings? Just a technical point here, but Shrink Item clearly states "you are able to shrink ONE nonmagical item". I think this does a lot of good to limit the offensive uses of the spell. If you want to drop boulders on someone's head, and you choose to use up SEVERAL 3rd level...

    Is thi prestige class ok, if not...what should I change?

    ok..it doesn't like my charts I guess? Ok,I chose to keep most of the chart the same and just mess with the special. So in level order these become Spirit of the Dragon, White Dragon's tail Grace of the Brass Dragon Strength of the Black Dragon Senses of the Dragon Improved Spirit of the...

    Is thi prestige class ok, if not...what should I change?

    Version 2.0 OK I bumped up the requirements, got rid of most of the Monk abilities and downplayed a few of the granted abilities. I'm still not sure it's balanced, but it's definately closer. What do you guys think I should do? Disciple of Io D&D 3.5 Prestige Class Much as a Five Animals...

    A Mirror Image Question

    but taking it to the extreme If the NPC who hit the correct image can tell that he did not hit an image (because it didn't evaporate) obviouslly everyone else who can see the situation can tell as well...it's not like a mage vanishing into thin air is subtle. If the NPC can tell which is the...

    The COMPLETE? alter self list

    Makes sense I should have figured that out... guess there was more sleep in me than I thought. I'm kinda sad there's no humanoid under 5hd that's large. The closest thing is an Asabi Stingtail, and he's 7hd. As far as I can tell, the fours you'd use are Avariel for flight, the Locathah for...

    The COMPLETE? alter self list

    Ok...I was insomniac... So I went through and found every "humanoid" you can Alter self into from every book I could get my hands on. Including EVERYTHING that you'd gain as a bonus. If anyone has any additions to this, let me know so I can update my list.

    All kinds of new smackiness in the Miniatures Handbook

    yeah...about that "sidestep" feat? Since the "sidestep" 5' step doesn't have any restriction as to the direction of travel, AoOs interupt the action that provoked them, and you take the 5' step immdeiately after the AoO.... If someone charged a combat reflex enabled, reach weaponed fighter...

    Any Excel or Word spell lists out there?

    Any one know where a guy can find a good excel or word version of spells out there? I'm tired of having to tote around all my books and leaf through every one every time I want to "reference" (read: explain/debate) a spell use to my DM. I thought a "spellbook" of spells my character knows would...

    Death from above, an unorthadox strategy

    I thought about that too. Range increments would make it almost impossible to aim except for the fact that you are aiming straight downwards. Seeing how gravity pulls straight down, and air resistance isn't going to change the path of something as dense as a rock in only 600' significantly...

    Death from above, an unorthadox strategy

    I thought about the accuracy as well... And true, once you let go of the rock, it pretty much just plumets and hits whatever spot it's over. But lets GM this "realistically". You're a nasty evil frost giant. You've been fighting a group of little people and one of them picks up a rock and...

    Death from above, an unorthadox strategy

    crap...broke my own thread! ok, just checked the DMs. seems the limit on falling objects is 20d6. (20-120) Guess they feel that this is terminal velocity. (at a height of 200' up?) Oh well, I guess I could always see if I could bring up 2 150 lb rocks instead? They only do 1d6/20', but with...

    Death from above, an unorthadox strategy

    Ok, a thought experiment. Consider a 12th level monk with a strength of 18 and ring of feather falling. During combat, he picks up a huge rock (300lb) and lifts it over his head. He then dissappears, leaving no trace. Unbenownst to all, he has used his abundent step feature to dimension door...

    Can you cast while prone?

    I can't seem to find anything on this in the core rules. On one hand, I can't see why you wouldn't be able to get off a spell while you were lying down, but on the other, you do experience a lack of mobility that I could see impeding your ablity. (on spells with somatic components, obviously...

    Achilles Heels?

    Ok, I'm wondering if anyone has got any good ideas about PC Classes (or Monsters) achilles heels? For example, we all know that the average wizard's fort and ref saves are comparable to the average 11 year old child, (yes, it's an exageration). And if you use disarm to take away a cleric's holy...

    Ok, need some stra-ta-gy!

    I think he may be buffed BEYOND the max. His "owner" has recently taken over (from me) as GM of our game. Since then, he's (the character) been complaining of headaches, shown a viscious temperment, and gotten progressively more feral. I thought we might be up against a lycanthrope, but I...
