DMing is really just telling a story, and (if you remember english class at all) there are important parts of a story Hook Rising Action Climax Descending Action using those 4 steps you can simply and improve the hook why are the adventurers on this deadly trek? that depends on the group you...

The mind creates the dungeon The heart masters it

Tarik, Human (then half-elven, long story about that, just don't make orcus mad)(then human again) Paladin (who went epic and killed Orcus) the main reason he is easily remembered is not because he killed orcus, but because during an adventure we were attacked by a dracolich (beyond our level...

54. Dragon Bait 55. Trogdor slayer (after all, what did you do to become an epic level commoner in the first place?) 56. Reporter to the princess that her 'prince' has decided she isn't the one 57. an actual historical bard 58. sitting on a forum thinking of 101 things you can do in your spare...

there are "base defense bonus' stuff in unearthed arcana, that could be a good way to gauge the defender, like he rolls a d20 and if his defense is less than the attacker's attack then he is considered flat-footed something like that but that would make hitting some monsters to easy...

It does make sense, but as stated before it would end in long standoffs that don't really help the game however... retreating from a battle does not immediatly mean getting an AoO in my groups house rules, only when using an attack option to flee (we have movement intiative and combat...

I'd say the net is something different, since the warrior isn't 1. in control 2. wanting it there and 3. its a net but with this thought in mind last night my cleric was going to plainshift a spinosaurus away (most likely to a plane of fire or something, somewhere not nice) but he grappled...

I guess it call kinda worked out in the end the player that pushed hard for 4e decided to become, for lack of a better word and hopefully no one gets upset with this word, a dick he had been a problem player before and now it seems like cutting him out would not only be best for the...

I just need to clarify one thing with powers when it says 1[w] or 3[w] does that mean that number of attacks or that number of damage?

we found someone willing to play a wizard, and knowing him he'll want damage but I still feel like the minion control got shafted, I had the same thing with a druid who (at one battle) had a few bears grapple the enemies and hold them down while other summons attacked, as well as the...

yeah, all we have is a dragonborn fighter, an eladrin ranger and a tiefling wizard biggest trouble right now is explaing the difference between eladrin and elves, the player still thinks they are the same and took a feat for an elf and an ability, when he had everything else of an Eladrin...

So I played 4e for the first time today what happened to fighters being better at fighting than wizards? and magic item lists would be nice, so I can roll randomly since the little adventure was 100% on the spot oh, and the healing surges DO NOT replace a cleric, learned that the hard way...

well played sir, well played and I will most likely go to the encounters night this wensday, hopefully I can get down there, my game store isn't too far, but with school and life, we really can't plan as for the week of party building, my group REALLY wants to play ASAP and yeah....im...

if its no more than 4 levels higher than the average party's level...then there is like no monsters out there for 1st levels, Drow are lvl 11, it just seems like low levels fight goblins, kobolds and zombies the entire time and i need to be familiar by next weekend and don't have money to burn...

Let me start this off by saying I have been playing D&D since 1999, not that long but considering I was born in 1993, it means over half my life I have been a gamer I have DMed before, but for 3e I started a group with some friends who really liked it and want to play more, and...just...

they both taste the same...

So I am writing an RPG and the main concept is taking classes out of it, leaving totaly up to the player as to what they want to do with what abilities so what are your favorite abilities from other games?

in order for a weapon to be 'epic' it has to be more than +5 in either special abilities (such as flaming) or the overall +X a +6 longsword would overcome it but a +1 transmuting weapon is not equal to that and thus could not, epic is not an ability you add to a weapon, it becomes...

well....my DM is nice enough to let me use a generic class (if you have unearthed arcana, enter here) which lets me choose my skills but the idea is there, isnt that what matters?
