(a) and (b). If a summoned creature moves more than the spell's range from you, the spell ends and the creature disappears (as with all ranged spells).

You have to be able to see your target to select it; with total concealment, you cannot see a target, so you cannot choose it.

Whichever one granted me spells! :)

I have often considered a house rule that Wish simply doesn't require XP if it's duplicating an existing spell (unless the spell you're duplicating costs XP; you'd have to pay that as normal). I can't think of any downside to that rule other than that Wish would actually get cast.

You know, I missed that too. I take back my comment about not having spellcasters. You would, but I agree that most wizards/sorcerers wouldn't want to do it. You might see some sorcerer/monks, but you definately make spellcasting harder. What about just saying flat out, "9th level spells do not...

If I mandated that, I wouldn't have any casters in my game. You'd be a fool to hamper yourself that way. If I may ask, why are you considering this restriction?

Who watches the Watchmen?

The rules for players (PHB) go to 20th level. The DMG provides a method for players to go beyond that, so it's inherantly a DM option. Not to mention the Epic rules are really bad as they are right now (why should a Wiz20/Ftr20 have a much worse BAB than a Ftr20/Wiz20?). I've never seen a good...

Which one of those doesn't break the game, then? Since getting six castings of a spell as full-round action is obviously broken, that cannot have been the designers' intent. Problem solved.

What about the "Check your players, if they're cool, you're fine," option? Seriously, if the DM is comfortable enough to trust his or her players with whatever they want to play, be creative, enjoy it, and be sure the people you're playing with are going to be able to handle those options and...

While this may be the rule, it's a bit wrong. A bow wouldn't function underwater with a soaked string, a firearm certainly wouldn't work, you couldn't swing a sling enough to use it, and only a crossbow with a metal cable (rather than a hemp cord) would work for very long. For ease of play, I'd...

Good point. The writers of the XPH clearly don't think that DR covers "protection against falling."

Change it from one extra bit of info every five points to every two points like feeding extra people with Survival. It hasn't really been a problem in our group as I hand wave the "extra information" anyway.

If you can't afford the ring, cast grease.

The Sage is wrong, as he often is. He really should look at the rules first. Falling damage is not from a weapon or natural attack--the ground doesn't even have to make an attack roll to hit you. It's clear in the description that DR does NOT apply.

But being blinded makes everything invisible. Walls, floors, ceilings, dangerous molds... You have no visual landmarks to discern your location and relative position to other objects/creatures. Being blind really should have a steeper penalty than fighting an invisible creature. I bet if you...

Doh! You're right, I do.

I'll chime in and agree. Versatility > +1 spell per day.

Well, I'd have to disagree that the UA versions are underpowered. I think the core rules versions are slightly underpowered, but it depends on how many encounters per day you have. What I really take issue with is the bolded text above. If you don't care about roleplaying at all, why aren't you...

By the RAW, that rogue takes no damage. Thanks for pointing out another reason I'll never allow the BoED in my games.
