    Magic Item Compendium - DMG Magic Item Prices

    They are also the wrong affinity slot for physical enhancement. A Belt of Mighty Fists would be cheaper, due to being a proper affinity. But then, I ignore item affinities. They are just fluff nonsense.

    Has the wave crested? (Bo9S)

    While the Crusader mentions 'flashes of divine insight', the first stance you can get that heals says "this healing represents the vigor, drive, and toughness you inspire in others. your connection to the divine causes such inspiration to have a real, tangible effect on your allies' health."...

    Casting From A Scroll In Combat - Walk Me Through It

    Yeah, that FAQ really screwed over everyone that likes scrolls. We had scry-and-die scrolls, for when the enemy teleported away, which worked exactly once the whole campaign. And wands of Lesser Restoration came in handy. Even had a cleric with a Caster's Shield with Close Wounds scribed on...

    Goliath Monk: Which Unarmed Damage?

    While it doesn't look that bad to allow it, wait until he acquires a Monk's Belt, takes Improved Natural Attack, and Superior Unarmed Strike. +2 size categories and +8 effective Monk levels adds up to one hell of a pimp slap. Like 4d8 by 9th level, and that's not even pushing it. You know...

    Silver Standard?

    I kinda like shifting coins down one step. Longsword = 15sp, Meals = 1cp etc. Dunno how realistic it is, but it's different, though not enough so to have to change everything in the book.

    Hide and Move Silently in Actual Play

    It's only a problem if you let it be. It is still your skill vs their senses. If you change something around one or more skills, then obviously you'd have to change the bonuses and penalties associated with those skills.

    Warblade maneuvers

    Just saying, the wizard/warblade encounter isn't so cut and dried. There are so many variants that go against the "warblade wins 'cuz he's uber" argument. The Warblade is fun to play, the fighter only is if you like math..and that's pretty much as far as that class goes. And the Frenzied...

    Warblade maneuvers

    A Master Transmogrifer at lvl 20 can cast Quickened Polymorph and full attack the Warblade too. I watched a Wizard/MT shrug off a Mordenkainen's Disjunction, cast Quickened Polymorph and belt out 300+ damage on a full attack. He pretty much did 75% of the damage against Kyuss in AOW, in an 8...

    Hide and Move Silently in Actual Play

    Well, if spot/listen are combined and move silent/hide are combined, then you're obviously going to hear an invisible opponent before you're going to see them. And ditto the opposite for a silenced opponent.

    Has the wave crested? (Bo9S)

    My swordsage in AOW was doing maybe 75 damage on a single strike, or about 140 on a full attack, if the target wasn't really hard to hit. Meanwhile, the Ranger/Monk dip was hammering out 250 on a full attack with his bare hands, and the Wizard/Master Transmogrifer, using the examples straight...

    Do You Have An Ioun Stone?

    I use them all the time. But I just put them on a chain and call it a slotless amulet. The whole flying around your head thing is just dumb.

    DR Evil .vs. Evil Characters

    Actually, a creature with DR can overcome that DR with its natural weapons. The reference source and page number seems to elude me right now though.

    Hide and Move Silently in Actual Play

    uhh, I'd say +20 higher than if they weren't invisible. ;)

    Has the wave crested? (Bo9S)

    Playing my lvl 2 Crusader is more complex than any caster class I've leveled up, except my epic Bladesinger/Conjurer gish. I have a stack of maneuver/stance cards to shuffle and manage in up to 4 piles, and 3 sets of hit points to keep track of. Then there's the tactical aspect and attack roll...

    Cheap sneak attack items?

    A Ninja's Ghost step. Effectively Greater Invisibility for one round, according to the FAQ.

    Hide and Move Silently in Actual Play

    Powerful? I think in all the years I've been playing, maybe twice has a sneaky PC been able to creep up and do the Navy SEALS thing on an enemy. It always goes one of 3 ways: DM: "ok, roll Hide and Move Silently to sneak up on the Warrior1 Hobgoblin guard." PC: "*S#@t, he saw me" PC: "S#@t...

    Much the same as any group of PCs. ;)

    Spelljammer...just wow

    Maybe someone needs to pitch Spelljammer to the new Iron Heroes owners. ;) Dump all the 'let's tie all the worlds together theory', keep the far out fantasy physics, and throw in some of the updated 3rd edition stuff floating around out there. Pun sort of intended. :p A few little tweaks...
