    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder: Fixing the TWF Ranger

    Ranger is a class that will always be more successful in an appropriate campaign. Campaigns set mostly in wilderness environments or involving a high percentage of your favored enemies can make a Ranger the star of the group. Making a successful Ranger is also dependent upon rolling good...

    actual statistics and marketing data for the rpg industry

    This is the internet--it is a series of tubes, not a collection of facts. You will never see my face therefore nothing I say has to be based on anything other than my own conjecture or whimsy. In answer to your question, yes, I have detailed info on RPG markets in general and WoTC's...

    What SHOULD FLGS do?

    There are already lots of good ideas here, but I thought I would add my own. 1. Used books at reasonable prices. RPG books can be really expensive and I often can't justify spending $40 on one book. I will, however, happily spend that on two or three books over the course of a month or two...

    The Failure of Gleemax

    I used to visit the WoTC boards from time to time but stopped shortly after the Gleemax transformation started. I didn't like the Gleemax changes but that is not why I stopped going there. The real reason I hate those boards is because they are filled with jerks. It is difficult to have a...

    How Long Can A Bard Sing For?

    I agree. I am a musician and have played in several "jam bands" so I know that it is possible to play for hours without taking a break or stopping, really. That requires great concentration, but not nearly as much as the pianist playing a concerto that can last 45 mins. Many classical pieces...

    Items that give bonus to Leadership score?

    Why not just treat it as a +1 bonus to an ability score. Of course it takes +2 to Charisma to raise your Leadership score by 1. However, +1 to Leadership isn't nearly as useful as +2 to Charisma. If give the +1 to Leadership item the same price as a +1 to Charisma item, the cost would be...

    What have you done to Drow in your world?

    I've always liked the idea of placing all elves in a huge forest with trees that are like half a mile tall. The regular elves live in cities at the tops of the trees, where the sun shines. Long ago, a group of elves broke off and moved to the forest floor where only the dimmest light reaches...

    Rogue/Bard Prc?

    Fochlucan Lyricist is commonly suggested as a PrC on these boards. In fact, when I saw the title of this thread I though, "Fochlucan Lyricist!" However, it has such ridiculous prereqs that it extremely impractical to make one. Has anyone ever played one? It seems like the perfect class for a...

    Mellubb's Xen'drik Heroes

    Wanderer, feeling confident that Dreth will attempt to avoid violence by talking with the kobold, scans the area of movement or to see if more creatures are hiding nearby.

    Mellubb's Xen'drik Heroes

    Is the game just stalled out? Can we expect an update soon? If the game is not going to continue I would like to know. Thanks.

    Mellubb's Xen'drik Heroes

    With everyone up and moving about, Wanderer quickly casts spells to help fight whatever is approaching. (Bull's Strength on Honor and Brambles on Wanderer's quarterstaff.)

    Mellubb's Xen'drik Heroes

    Hearing the grunts coming from all around, Wanderer decides that two friends are not enough. He says to Siroc, "Something is approaching. Help me wake the others." Wanderer whispers to Honor, "We must wake the group, they are approach from two directions."

    Mellubb's Xen'drik Heroes

    "Yes. Siroc seems trustworthy and strong. And I will wake Bones as well. He will likely be much more effective than us at investigating. It would not be wise to announce our presence too quickly." Wanderer quietly goes over to Bones and shakes him gently..."Shhhh...quietly now. There is a...

    Mellubb's Xen'drik Heroes

    OOC: How far in the distance are these grunts? Is Wanderer able to identify the grunts at all?

    "A fire will serve our purposes fine," Wanderer says as he goes to collect firewood.

    Mellubb's Xen'drik Heroes

    "Indeed, I will stand guard with Honor. If any of you have clothing or gear that need mending I will do this as well. There is really no need for any others to take a watch with us. We will certainly awaken you if there should be any danger. Please, get your rest and prepare for the dangers...

    Mellubb's Xen'drik Heroes

    Wanderer rides back over to Honor and nods subtly to him. He looks at the others hunched over the orc's body and says quietly "Their attachment to material possessions is sometimes difficult to comprehend. Do you think it is because their bodies are so frail and need constant upkeep? If they...

    Psionic Swordsage

    Slaved, I like your idea, but this is going to be a one-off game and that seems like an awful lot of work for one evening of playing. Blargney, I like the idea of Psionic Meditation instead of Sudden Recovery to get around the 3 times/day issue. Another question: expending psionic focus is a...

    Psionic Swordsage

    I am working on a level 10 character and am really intrigued by the Swordsage class and its potential synergy with Psychic Warrior and psionic feats. I am not sure, though, whether I should go straight Swordsage or if I should take levels in other classes. Any help here would be appreciated...

    Mellubb's Xen'drik Heroes

    Wanderer is on his horse, ready to move, but is waiting for the others to do what they will.
