Well, AFAIK, the feat description says, that the character needs DEX 18 to qualify ITW. It doesn't say anything about how DEX 18 is gained. So, using the gloves would be fine. But if the guy loses them, he can't use ITW unless his DEX reaches 18 somehow...

A friend has a 2d6...yep, it is a larger plexi d6 with a smaller d6 inside, quite funny. He has also a d100 (golfball size) and a gumball with a d20 inside...not so good as a dice, but bounces around if thrown ;) d3 are quite known, but I'm the only one in the group who owns a d3 (a d6 with two...

Hm, IIRC, it needs some time to get a group into that extradimensional place (at least in 2e). Meanwhile, the opponents may foil an organized escape. Teleport is just easier to use for escape, get quickly from A to B, spoil a setting or adventure hook... Surely you can block it with...

Yep, I think 1e and 2e rules were good in balancing teleport by adding a dangerous component to the spell which couldn't be removed. Ending up in rock is quite final, unless you're an earth elemental or a ghost (or become a ghost after a bad mishap ;) ). The party wizard always used teleport...

Sometimes I'm considering to use the old AD&D Teleport...It is a good escape spell to get home, but it is very risky to go to a barely explored place. And that's why wizards live in towers: they teleport onto the roof to avoid ending up in solid rock... One campaign I'm in has no wizard and no...

;) Somehow I have the feeling that the party may need a rogue character in the coming sessions (They'll enter an undead-infested dungeon soon...and I'm a VERY evil DM...and the party consists of a cleric, a paladin, a druid and two wizards... :] ). Same for me, but sometimes the players want...

System: Depends on the group...Now I'm DMing a 3.5 high-level FRCS group and allow nearly everything that is fine with the rules (3.5 core rules, 3.0 splat books, FRCS, PGtF, MoF, MM 2, Monsters of Faerûn, ELH). We don't have the psi handbook, so psi powers are not a big deal (except for...

Yeah, Hide Life is quite a mess. It is now rewritten in my group, so that it is not that overpowered anymore. Still, it hasn't been used yet... Holy Word can be a problem if not every character in a party is of good alignment. Time Regression: Hehe, there was a similar spell in good ol' Tome...

Take an elven ranger/deepwood sniper with dragons as favored enemies. Take archer feats, of course. Buff him with haste, true strike, prayer, and very important: hunter's mercy. Give him a +5 icy burst and acid burst oathbow. Roll damage... :]

The dungeon with its traps has two purposes: first, to hinder and harm the party before the group faces the rulers of the dungeon. Second, it shows the weaknesses of each party member and forces them to work together, or fail if they are not able to help each other. Normally, you would expect...

Hi folks, some days ago, I was planning some dungeon crawl stuff for the group I'm DMing. The dungeon is complete along with most of its undead inhabitants, the four BBEG are ready to do evil (one 21st level alhoon sorcerer (member of the Twisted Rune), a 29 level wizard lich (the senior of the...

Yep, Ball Lightning for example: they've posted the old version, it seems. Does it now override the BL version in Unapproachable East? :lol:

The Hathran PrC has seen a lot of changes: no automatic cohort, no fear and greater command ability, instead speak with spirit subtype creatures at will (IIRC, there are spirit descriptions in the Unapproachable East), other Rashemi have some penalties when fighting a hathran, 8 spells are added...

Yeah, by the Sage, IIRC. And that ruling is complete nonsense, it ignores the PHB rules and causes some trouble in recalculating hp, when a druid WS into a creature not capable of wearing bracers of health, for example. /end of rant

Ok, here is it, my little druid smack down: Type: damage to a single target We need: Druid 18, barbarian 2 Feats: Natural Spell, Power Attack, Multiattack, Improved Natural Attack (Claw), Improved Natural Attack (Bite), Improved Critical (Claw) Equipment: 2x Ioun Stone of Spell Storing, Ring...

But it will not "lose" an age category if it spends all its XP? Hm, on the basis of the Draconomicon rules, it is quite unlikely that a dragon (who casts spells as a sorcerer) ever choses Wish or Permanency as spells... Ok, Wish is it not really worth to be taken, IMHO...Gate on the other hand...

I'm just a bit curious about the rules here: What happens if a monster like a great wyrm dragon (without any classes) casts a spell like Gate, Permanency, Wish or Miracle (or any other spell that needs XP as a component)? Will it become younger? Or must it contribute a costly material...

Why not? The halfling had low Str, the crossbow she used was +2 ranged seeking and could fire three bolts per day of light that do additional damage to undead. The ftr/pal/rgr was a very good rider, as well as the assassin and the halfing. IIRC, she had a pony. Those with fly/teleport spells...

Sorry, but I wasn't at home when I wrote the first posts about the encounter. When I was back, I checked my old D&D stuff and found the wizard and combat sheet, so I clarified some points. Hmm, obviously it was overpowered. But from the point of CR, it was not: ECL 12 (wiz11 + 1 of difficulty...

The group was unaware that some mighty guys were quite unpleased about the party's actions. IIRC, the adventueres believed that they had won the battle against a troll king and his army and his ally, a very powerful gythianky psychic warrior. Both the troll king and the gythianky were killed by...
