    Can you Quickdraw in the middle of an Attack?

    OK.... So, in the example below 1__2 _X ___3 I am a super-buff character X, as in the original post. Instead of the armory of swords, axes, and daggers he carries, I wield only a double-bladed sword (with which I am proficient, Focused, etc). I drop #1 off my first attack, then whirl around...

    Starting gold

    It's not listed in the book, and WOTC has no errata posted yet. TWO OPTIONS: Figure out where the "Complete Divine" Errata thread went, see if it's there, or use values for other classes. My recommendations: Shugenja - 3d4 x 10 (from OA book), Spirit Shaman - 4d4 x 10 (from Shaman listing in...

    Where have I seen this exotic weapon before?

    I think the bow in question was in the 2nd Edition Handbook of Elves, or some such. The red faux-leather print softcover had a lot of woodland-type equipment in there. Either there or the Arms and Equipment guide (2nd edition) with the blue cover.

    Can you Quickdraw in the middle of an Attack?

    RIGHT - So you can't use Cleave to hit somebody with your off-hand weapon without getting the off-hand weapon penalty. BUT, if you are going to tackle the whole munchkinland "they didn't specifically say you can't so I can" Cleave and Great Cleave thing, then since Great Cleave doesn't...

    Can you Quickdraw in the middle of an Attack?

    OK. So, as far as I can see, we have about three different discussions here. 1) Do Cleave and Great Cleave "stack"; and as a side-note: 2) The definition of immediate as it relates to game-actions; and starting it all, 3) Cleave, Great Cleave, free actions, and iterative attacks. RE: Item 1 and...

    Profession skill and the use there of.

    Yeah, What they said. A Profession skill is a much more specific set of information than a Knowledge skill, and usually includes hands-on skills, but more general knowledge than a single Craft covers. As such, any of the three can (and should) give each other synergy bonuses. Generally, I...

    A Good Non-orc Orc/Minion Race...

    An urban setting? Light rail? Man, you gotta go with self-replicating constructs! Take the stats for a kobold, give 'em d10 hit die and no Con stat, and whammo, you have a new race. Give them a pair of feats, and advance them as per monster manual rules to fit in anywhere! They can do all the...

    Clarke's principle on its head

    I agree completely! That's the main reason I don't run my campaign in the Forgotten Realms - it's just too easy for someone with money (read: PC's) to get anything they need. After a few levels getting rich (compared to a commoner), you really have to wonder why anyone would continue to...

    Player Problem, need advice

    Methinks the Bard hath got it right. I have had similar problems in the past, with a pair of UBER-Power gamers (each in a different campaign) who just REEKED of min/maxing. They broke up party unity, (one assassinated one of the other players), and generally made matching the challenges to the...
