    weapon speeds

    Just wanted to point out something that may help the OP... the EverQuest Player's Handbook deals with weapon speeds in 3.0... the idea is attack progression is similiar to D&D and a perfectly well balanced weapon can be used in a double attack at a -5 of your BAB however the larger / unweildly...

    Cleric undead-turning. Just how busted is it?

    If that is the case wouldn't it act just like a lesser version of mass heal only better because it doesn't take away from your spells per day? Personally, I have never been a fan of the turning ability. I felt the ability was a bit too convoluted... an outdated mechanic that should have been...

    What makes Undead, Undead? and are all Undead evil?

    I think this is a bit flawed... if the only reason to use or conjure negative energy is to inflict death... then I see it as being evil for it's only intent is to cause harm and warp the natural order of things. Using your example of a gun... a gun is neutral for it can be used to hunt and...

    EoM-R House Rules

    Another House Rule we use in our game is the Infuse/Drain charts are the same... for some reason the Ice and Mist are reversed on the other side. Not a big deal and probably just a typo but worth noting. Thank you for your time, Wm. Holder

    EoM-R House Rules

    I've been tinkering around with this very thing... I used the chart from the Epic Level Handbook for a basis... it was the closest thing to modular spell creation in core rules... one thing that's off is the MP calculation... everything is a bit more expensive using this chart. Area and range...

    EoM-R House Rules

    Primitive Screwhead, ( btw, love the Bantha Skull ) I seem to recall you house ruling area increases to be in diameter and not radius due to a Move (Death) example with Zombie arrow fodder... Our group currently uses an increased mana cost table for Move (Force)... we have also made every...

    So how many of you made the switch?

    Our group switched to 3.5 at release... even though it has taken a while for everyone to finally get their own books... I bought two copies of each... one to have as personal reference complete with my notes and bookmarks... the other set was for the gaming table... I later gave that set to the...

    EoM-R House Rules

    I am personally a fan of the magical skills... it makes spell casting more dynamic and more importantly it works... it effectively does every combination I could think to do with it. Especially the way Overmastering and Dispelling work right out of the box... a great many Mage battles have been...

    Suggestion : Kill your ally.

    Power of Suggestion In our last game we had a green dragon use Suggestion on the dwarven berserker... the dragon very cryptically said, "Your allies will betray you." Moments later the dragon was finished off by the rest of the party and the dwarf spent the rest of the adventure looking over...

    What makes Undead, Undead? and are all Undead evil?

    What is the difference between Spirit and Soul... or did you mean Mind? This is a very interesting approach to the interaction of ability scores and dynamics of a character make up... body, life force, mind, soul... I like it... but something seems to be off... I think it's the separation of...

    Honestly - What is Eragon?

    I found the books enjoyable. Then again I'm a big fan of the Harry Potter books... I don't know how to describe the feel of these type of books other than fresh. The original works of classic fantasy writers paint a master piece filled with political intrigue and systems of how things work...

    EoM-R House Rules

    Thanks a ton, I have been playing around with the mass healing and buffing effects as they are... I think they are a bit too powerful for the level so I have been thinking of increasing the mp cost of all area spells instead of just the beneficial ones... or do you believe the damage spells are...

    What makes Undead, Undead? and are all Undead evil?

    First I would like to thank everyone for their candor and I really appreciate the discussion taking place. Nyeshet, I love the outline of your campaign cosmology... I may end up using something similar... I think you are correct in this. I find the act of binding to be the evil act in...

    What makes Undead, Undead? and are all Undead evil?

    I know this sounds like a very simple question but I am looking for a more in depth explanation. The common answer is anything once living that is now animated through the use of negative energy. That sounds pretty straight forward... until you look at golems. A Flesh Golem is created through...

    True Seeing

    I felt the rules surrounding these skills were a bit convoluted... but necessary to adequately spell out all of the effects one could obtain. I would be very interested on how these rules could be simplified and yet retain all of the versatility and overall usefulness of each skill. Thank you...

    EoM-R House Rules

    I would be most interested if you could post those when you get back... I was reading through and had trouble wrapping my head around how a spell that effects one target for say 4d6 damage can inturn effect over 10 creatures clustered together for one more mana. Just seems to be a large jump in...
