    Playing a wizard at low levels

    A lower level wizard is what a wizard should be, squishy. A couple hits and your down, draw too much attention and your out of the fight. But I think that its one of the best ways for people to become better players overall. You have to learn to use your brain instead of your character's...

    The Opposite of Railroading...

    I don't know, I've had troubles with my players pulling stunts. I make my campaigns usually as a combination of a handful of smaller pre-made and personally modified modules which I tie in to a larger, overreaching campaign that is the main. This format has served me well for the last year or...

    Saying Goodbye to Dungeon/Dragon - Our Thoughts

    More random rod of wonder

    One of my players recently got a rod of wonder, rolled up randomly. He expected to have a blast but found his fun to be somewhat less enjoyable due to the lack of effects. After a couple sessions it was all old hat. So, I've come up with a project, I want to make a new rod of wonder but I'm...

    A more free ended magic system?

    I was recently reading through the Elminster series and I noticed something that got me thinking. In the book, during his training (or at this point her training), he/she learns to modify certain spells. In many styles of fantasy you can modify aspects of a certain spell in very unique and...

    How is the warlock not overpowered?

    Okay, I have noticed a lot of warlock love. I personally like the class for its flair and the simplistic way it captured darker and more demonic magic. I also remember reading the class and thinking "What a game breaker" due to its sheer power. It can do effective sneak attack damage once per...

    No AoO?

    My group really doesn't bother with AoO's unless somebody has a build that uses them or if somebody does something that would obviously leave them open (turn tail and run in the middle of battle) It works fine. We also adopt the nat. 1 is a failure, nat. 20 is success in all circumstance. We...

    Need help with a cursed item

    In my game I'm planning on putting a dagger in. This will be a cursed object that will return to the wielder even if they get rid of it, etc. The party is around ECL 5, 4 people. I am planning on having it so that under identify it reads as a dagger which steals the life force from an...

    Reusable identify item?

    I remember in bladur's gate 2 there was an item that could cast identify 3/day. Is there anything like that? Maybe something that could cast identify 1/day or something like that? And if not, how much would something like that cost?

    What happened to the Vasharans?

    A homebrew. The DM played AD&D even through 3.x (and still does). Though he had looked through the other books. We never got a name, but that was the only thing I could find that fit the description, perfectly actually. I was researching demon lords on wikipedia when I ran across the...

    Can gnomes talk to rats?

    I'd definately allow it, as stated previously burrowing creatures are hard to find. Also, rats are just lazy burrowers, they CAN burrow, they just prefer to use ones already made. Reminds me of humans

    Best Archer?

    I've always been a fighter honestly. You get more health and lots of feats. Though OotBI is good. For a archer concept point of view ranger/fighter is usually what I go for though, it feels strange to have an archer in plate.
