Seven copies here, so far, exactly an hour apart since 8:10 PM my time (it's currently about 10 to 3 in the morning).

Well, I do need a little more than "I try to use Persuasion on him!", which players have tried on me from time to time. What are you trying to persuade this person of? But that's no different from how I run any other skill, it's just that the question seems to arise a lot more often with social...

I just grabbed a generic-ish CR 20 warrior type stat block, because the staging for that fight says that's his CR, and ad libbed minor spellcasting abilities because it mentioned him having a wand. That's a problem with a LOT of encounters at that stage, he's almost the least of them. How...

... seems to be missing from the Complete Campaign book. Running the end of adventure 11 RIGHT NOW and I could have sworn I had at least a rough idea of it, but right now I cannot find it anywhere.

Okay, what the heck is a "huhoad"? I take it it's some sort of extraplanar monster, but that's about it. I ask because one shows up without explanation, as though the reader is supposed to already know what it is, near the beginning of adventure 11 (3.5 version). Even Google doesn't turn up...

(ignore this post, missed a response to a similar question earlier in the thread)

It may be weak in a straight up fight but it also gets Cure Wounds as a ritual from second level, which is absolutely broken and the first thing that jumped out at me. I'm amazed no-one else has pointed this out, and for that matter that it wasn't caught in editing. Not a good first impression...

There's some spam posts in General about something called votofel cream or something like that. I reported one of them but there seem to be at least three.

What are "CoreRPG", "MoreCore" (I assume those two are related?), and "AD"?

Avellone's involvement is an excellent sign. I wonder if they'll even try to implement the hexcrawling aspect, or for that matter the rulership side. Any links to anything that addresses that?

Okay, found the rule. So if passive checks are normally "taking 10", on a passive check with disadvantage you're "taking 5" and with advantage, "taking 15". Kind of interesting actually. I withdraw that part of what I said, though the last paragraph is still true regardless.

I'm certain this one is wrong as stated. What would "disadvantage on passive Perception" even mean? Disadvantage is a specific way of using dice, and passive checks do not involve dice rolling. If you're rolling dice, it's not a passive check. Actually, that would make a good addition to your...

Okay, according to that thread it's not meant for PCs, but for NPCs going up against PCs much higher level than themselves. That's the piece I was missing and I do indeed see how there might be some point to that now. I still think I'll either omit this one or modify it in some way, but at least...

I'm converting over the 3.5 WotBS feats for my (Pathfinder) players, and I just got to Volley Shot and can't work out what possible point there is in its existence. First of all, the flavour text and rules description make no sense together. The flavour text says it lets you make an area...

In other words, the rules are silent on how you choose your character's gender. The correct conclusion to draw from this is that they mean the obvious common-sensical thing, i.e. that you get to choose your character's gender, not that they mean something completely bizarre that you made up...

Do you mean Mists of Akuma?

The Inkarnate link literally tries to put "http://inkarnate is in beta sign up/" into your address bar (only with the spaces replaced by %20s).

There's an actual published TSR adventure that throws 75 gibberlings at you at one point...

...huh. For a few hours this afternoon, none of them worked, but they seem fine now. Looking forward to reading the adventure now that I can!

Just FYI, the link that's supposed to download the free adventure "Into the Feywild" from the EN5ider Patreon page doesn't currently work. (Perhaps a side-effect of the recent database troubles?) It presently just goes to a completely blank greenish-grey page. I tried this in both Vivaldi and...
