I was reading the Pathfinder thread in GD, and the forked thread about Perform skills, and I had an idea: maybe we could make Perform skills like language skills. With some modifications, of course, but the basic idea is that you don't really need any measure of proficiency in a perform skill...

I'm not entirely sure. Most of the factors were picked out of a hat, what "felt right", and tweaked a bit as I built spells. Unfortunately, I didn't make any that increased the duration like that, so I can't say which one's better. :p

While I agree that no spell should be extended beyond 1/day level, I disagree with extending the duration of day/level spells. Oh no. No. If it's extended to a flat 24 hours, you shouldn't be able to stack another feat on that to make it level-dependent and thus make the duration ridiculously...

That's what PrCs are for.

Latecomer to the thread. :D The only reason we have ASF in the first place is because wizards have better spells than everyone else... but clerics being able to wear heavy armor makes them one of the most powerful classes in the game. What I did for PP is this: ALL spellcasters must make a...

The core rules are now complete. Project Phoenix has everything from the core rules and the legendary (epic) rules - I finished the monsters this past week, and put the final touches on the legendary spells this weekend. I am now going to take a much-needed break. :D

You don't need to drop the +2. In fact, I think it'd be more useful to keep it - otherwise everyone starts out with all crap saves, instead of at least one good one. Um... BOTH are a boost. Read this; it's an analysis I made of the fractional BAB/save system. I also boosted the low save...

That's what I use for Project Phoenix - fractional BAB/saves, and the +2 applies only once per save. Haven't tried it in play, but it works great on paper.

That would be the one. It's an immensely useful utility - you can add/alter your own spells, change spell progressions, add new classes, generate and print out spell lists...

Wow, cool. I used to use NPC Designer, because I thought it was the best one out there (I used BleedingEdge's Spell Generator for my spells), but I dropped it after I started revising 3.5 - I didn't think it would be any more use. Now that I know I can go in and tweak things, I'm all over it.

Double heh. I've given up asking/pestering about it, myself.

I'm a little burned out, since I finished and posted 4 (!) PrCs earlier today, but I'll post some rough ideas. Maleficus Lamnia is still a working name; I tossed it in as a placeholder for the time being. I changed the focus a little bit - instead of it being strictly mage/assassin, I opened it...

Hmm... we don't really have enough to do subforums (not sure I could anyway) or categories - I'd probably need a forum completely separate from ENWorld for that. It has been pretty dead around here; for my part, I've nearly reached the end of what I wanted to do, though I still pop by on...

Eeugh. Mine was based on an assassin from one of those role-playing, Choose-Your-Own-Adventure books I read when I was teenager. The assassin in question was a cloaked figure that used a cloth garrote; I made up the rest myself. BoVD. WotC's version of "evil". *snicker* I've got some ideas. I...

You missed one detail - they never state a limit on how large/long a scroll can be. It's always long enough to hold as many spells as needed. When I did the magic items for Project Phoenix, I put a couple limits on it: Scrolls are considered to be equal to 10 spellbook pages, but a given...

Slight aside: This request and subsequent thought exercise has stimulated my creative juices again; I went back over some of my unfinished PrCs and started jotting down ideas for those too. I finally finished one that I've been wresting with for awhile, and can close up a couple more this...

297 would've been 3.5... that wasn't too long ago. Anyway, I was thinking about this earlier, and I think we've got two different classes now - one is centered around stealing spells/abilities, and the other is an illusionist type, sort of an uber-Shadowdancer. Both work off the same base -...

Sneak attack goes without saying. :) I was going to toss in SA at 3/6/9, independent of anything else. I hadn't thought about hiding/avoiding damage, but that might be treading on the Shadowdancer's toes too much. Course, we could make this something that requires Shadowdancer and Assassin...

I would've posted this last night, but the servers were pitching a fit. :P Anyway, I spent some time thinking about this at work, and I came up with the following. I know this is duplicating some of what I mentioned earlier, but I'm refining a bit, and tentatively assigning levels now. Death...

I was turning this over in my head a little bit this morning, thinking about the concept. Shade says he wants elements of the assassin, the rogue, and the wizard, so we'll go with that - an arcane assassin who can steal others' abilities to augment his own. Now. Let's figure this thing will be...
