    Uh....When is the FRCS getting updated? Specifically domains.....

    Thanks Eric. I should mention that my name in RL is Eric, so it's nice to get help from another Eric (and not an Erik or Erick...poor kids have their names spelled wrong). Though I have to say it's surprising that the update won't be until 2004....what's up with that? I think they will lose...

    Uh....When is the FRCS getting updated? Specifically domains.....

    So I'm playing a cleric of Grumbar who has taken the Time domain. At 7th level he gets "Mass Haste" as a domain spell. But Mass Haste no longer exists! Help. Anybody know when they are coming out with an update?

    Open Complaint to Peter Adkison

    You know, it's kinda funny. Getting into the Gen Con can be looked at in a RP sense..... 1. Those who pre-registered can be viewed as a) nobility (ie., the press) b) having a high INT 2. Those who did not pre-register had choices a) leave after x hours passed (smart move) b) attempt to use...

    Spiritual Weapons & AoO's

    Thanks guys! I was also leaning towards "no" after reading the spell description, but I wanted to be sure since the spell didn't specifically say no AoO's.

    Spiritual Weapons & AoO's

    Does a spiritual weapon, as cast by a cleric, get an attack of opportunity?

    Astronomy and the Realms

    Thanks Gregor, for the advice. I've actually done some research on the Elemental Archon class at Sean K. Reynolds website - he discussed the know:nature 8 rank pre-req. with one of the two Eric/k's that authored the F&P book and apparently they screwed up on that pre-req because they thought...

    Shatter spell

    I have to agree with thorimar on this one. I mean, just think of the word....SHATTER. A rope can never be shattered - it can be unwound, torn, burnt, even animated, but not shattered. I would just say apply the word sensibly - if the object can be shattered and fits within the weight limit of...

    Astronomy and the Realms

    So I'm going to be playing a cleric of Grumbar (elemental god of the earth) pretty soon and eventually he may go on to be an Elemental Archon. Well, I anticipate having to make strong RP arguments as to why Earth is the 'dominant' element and I'm wondering what resources, if any, outline...

    Why did they lower spell DCs? (3.5)

    Our group is keeping Spell Focus at +2 but is getting rid of Greater Spell Focus....which I can compromise with but it's regretable that they changed it at all. Two feats for a +2 to saves in one school of magic? I'd rather just take toughness and be done with it.

    How would you play....?

    Keep in mind if you are playing a beautiful female in a party of males you are probably going to be harrassed (in-game) - I just finished playing a priestess of Sune and after being come on to by our half-ogre fighter I had to tell him, "You're too big for me, sweetheart." That got a lot of laughs.

    Wow, Freedom of Movement

    Camarath - I would like to hear what your list of fixes are to date. More specifically, what exactly are you fixing? How does one determine when a spell is 'broken'? Let me present you with a scenario that explains my thoughts on this spell: A 10th level cleric will be able to cast anywhere...

    Wow, Freedom of Movement

    I really don't see what the big problem is. It's a 4th level spell that you have to cast in advance (a cleric that stumbles into a room of angry monks ISN'T going to get the spell off) and clerics, if you've noticed in 3.5e, have been directed more towards defense than offense - hence the...

    The Gaming Ideal

    1. 4 players, 1 DM. 2. Twice a week - one weeknight, one weekend day. 3. 4 hours on weeknight, 8 on weekday with an 1-hour offsite meal (to break it up). 4. 70 crunch/30 fluff (want more fluff? read a novel) 5. More FRCS Deities information.

    How Do You Curb Table Talk?

    There are basically two camps: those that are there to focus and play (which you fall into, as do I) and those that are there to dick around. Figure out who falls into your camp and keep them. Lose everyone else.

    [3.5 Whinge] Diviners still got the shaft!

    I think they should rename the class "gypsy fortune teller" or something a bit more exotic. I envision diviners as being the real money makers in DnD - they don't adventure. They camp out in town and score money off of stupid adventurers by divining for them! Not to mention all the nobles and...

    What is XP?

    Would it, though? I always thought DnD was a nice escape FROM reality...the reality of balancing my checkbook, watching the news or even doing some crunches at the gym (gotta raise that STR!)...sure, it's odd that a person would have a 'quantum leap' in skill overnight instead of a gradual...

    Another alignment question & Animate Dead

    My new PC will be a cleric of neutral alignment (cleric of Grumbar from the FRCS). Clerics of neutral alignment must choose at the beginning of their 'career' whether or not their spells can be converted spontaneously to "cure" or "inflict" spells. Doing so also decides whether or not a cleric...

    [FR] Waterdeep in Ashes

    All I can say is that an event like that would be big news throughout the land and the big wizards like Khelben, Elminster, and the Simbul (who resides in Silverymoon) would be alerted. So would the Harpers and the Purple Knights of Cormyr. A small army from Silverymoon would probably already...

    D&d Minis Hurrayyy!

    The whiners are really getting out of hand. If you need a bunch of orcs then buy some orc mini's from a business that sells orcs in bunches - it's not really that expensive but yes, you will have to take the time to paint them. Just buy one bottle of green paint and bam, your done. OR not. I...
