    Reincarnating as a Pixie

    Hehe, that happened to my druid after being disintegrated while he was fighting a wizard as a giant squid in an underwater encounter (unfortunately he has lost ALL equipment). A friendly druid brought him back to life with a True Reincarnate. I rolled for an owl and a centaur...well, my choice...

    Reincarnating as a Pixie

    By the wording of the spell, the PC would gain ALL powers and abilities of the new form, so, yes that would include SR 16 (which is quite low, especially in high-level campaigns), natural invisibility can be foiled quite easily (See Invisibility is a standard spell for mid to high-level mages...

    Shifter munchkininess

    Yep, agreed. But are you sure about the Fang Dragon? IIRC, a shifter can take only the standard dragons in MM (but not a wyvern, dragon turtle,...). We're using a HD limit, too (maximum is HD of the shifter character). Works fine. Aye, grappling with a remorhaz or delivering a touch spell on...

    Shifter munchkininess

    Not bad, Hand of Vecna, me likes it. Hmm, perhaps a bonus feat at 14th level and very four levels thereafter (see the Epic Druid)? I'd replace the text of Improved Dragon Shape with this: Advanced / Improved Dragon Shape Prerequesites: Dragon Shape, Beast Shape, Wis 35, Knowledge Nature 40...

    Sequester problem

    One player (and future DM) in my group came up with an interesting question about Sequester and Symbol. Well, here's the spell from the SRD: While the spell is quite harmless as a creature protection, it becomes a problem when used with traps, especially with a Symbol of death. If I...

    Shifter munchkininess

    As a DM, I won't allow that "TricK". It's debalanced if you compare an arcane and a druidic shifter. And it's munchkinism, too.

    Killer DMs and you

    Perhaps I'm a Killer DM (well, I'm quite sure that the players would vote for that). In one campaign, 8 PCs died, mostly because of stupidity, heroism (yes, it sometimes happens ;)) or because they didn't get the hint to flee a lost fight... The other campaign, ToE, has seen six dead PCs so...

    Shifter munchkininess

    SR is (Ex), DR is (Su). The shifter can take only forms he has fought or studied for a day. After all, it depends on the DM how powerful a shifter will be. An additional problem is a possible DR of certain opponents, which is difficult for a shifter to overcome. 3.5 will lessen but not remove...

    New haste on WotC website!

    Indeed. But should that happen, the party (level 15) will rest in pieces after that encounter :( (if Quicken Spell is not to be changed and the group is not blasted into oblivion in RttToEE - the next session will see victory or final defeat in the CRM...)

    oozes, acid and magic items...help needed

    Thanks for the input. I hope that my party will finish off the pudding before it reaches melee combat distance...Unfortunately, they have never encountered oozes so far. Hmm, we will see ;)

    New haste on WotC website!

    That was what I meant (but english is not my native language...). Thanks for clearing the mess up ;)

    New haste on WotC website!

    The new version is perfectly fine, IMHO (and it's close to our homebrewed version in most points). Ah, no insane wizards dropping a Greater Dispelling followed by a maximized Fireball on the party anymore... Hmm, wonder what happens to Slow since the partial actions are about to be removed...

    oozes, acid and magic items...help needed

    Hi, recently I worked out an encounter for ToE involving a black pudding and I stumbled over some problems... First: Why are the oozes from MM not immune to acid although they deal acid damage? Or did I miss the erratum? Second: A pudding's acidic touch deals 50 points of damage to wooden and...

    What level is your party at right now?

    My oldest group (now about 5 (?) years without PC change), the SADES, are - still - at level 15 and still fighting in the CRM of RttToEE...*sigh* :( The second group, Rose and Sword, is at level 16 and has entered the CotSQ recently, slaughtering drow, duergar and demons without mercy :D The...

    Salamander Attack Routines

    Following Jeremy's interpretation (and I would rule it similarily) the salamander can use both weapons during its attack routine. I don't have the MM at work, so I quoted the SRD, so, the komma might be a mistake...;) OTOH, the natural (secondary) attack is at +18, which seems to be consistent...

    Wow, that's a VERY though creature...hmmm, better the PCs complete the orb, or the demon will beat them into bits ;) Thanks for your answer BOZ !

    In search for monster stats (Münster/Haltern players: STAY OUT !)

    In search for monster stats (Münster/Haltern players: STAY OUT !) Hi folks, my group has recently defeated the high priests of the Temple of Elemental Evil and will (hopefully) proceed to the elemental nodes to search the missing gems of the Orb of Golden Death. I'm searching the stats of...

    New epic wild shape feats

    Indeed, there is a Dragon Shape feat, but it allows only the standard chromatic and metallic dragons from MM. So I thought up an upgrade for the other dragons (brown, shadow, song, irbrandlin, wyvern, hellfire, topaz, linnorm,.... As The Pope mentioned, plus some other: Ocean Strider (MM2)...
