I think it's worthless. In any game where you're going to be making a lot of charisma based skill checks you're much, much better off putting point in intelligence so you'll have the extra skill points to make those checks with. Unless you do something else with charisma, it's pretty near...

I'd be fine with having them be evocations with no SR. They are higher level, so this particular evocation penetrates SR by 'evoking' the energy so fully that it's more real, less magical... but still it's evocation, summoning energy. If you're going to continue to have this as two schools of...

I have always thought/assumed that indeed the Finesse feat only applied to one weapon. And so. I went to the online SRD on WoTC's site: And Lo! It does indeed appear that now taking this feat once allows you to finesse any and every finesseable weapon. Or, at least, any "light weapon, rapier...

Without reading the exact text to be sure, what you've posted so far does seem to indicate that there is an initial blast with a xd4 no save, followed by a possible save in rounds 2 and 3. Edit: "I compared it to cone of cold and it seems slightly more powerful." Cone of cold is widely...

Yea, I have to vote 3.5 too. For all I think they took a few steps backwards (messed up some things), overall they fixed a lot with 3.5 that did need fixing, and it's the most current, etc.

I agree with this. Of course, I'd leave life and death in the 'necromancy' sphere (rename that at will, of course). Any magic that heals has a great potential for harm. If you know how to grow tissue together you know how to grow it apart. If you can encourage the life-force of a mammal to...

Interesting, and a good attempt to make all the abilities balanced. Personally, I've always left it alone in my games. But I have done some theory on how I personally would change the saves... Well, strength could affect some fort saves by, umm... well, some fort saves are really endurance...

Not free, but if you pay an entire feat for it, sure, I'll let you have the feat "has a necklace of adaptation". You most certainly can! It's discounted, cause it only works part of the time (against paralysis) Well, I'd agree that it's not worth the price to get it. But if for some reason...

In a similiar situation a WF won't bother to make a swim check, He'll just walk (along the bottom, yes). As for weight, yes... as a WF, around 400 lbs, you definitely won't go across that bridge at all, let alone fight or charge across it. But then, well, if for some reason it's necessary in...

But a feat's not really a physical score or ability... Oh, I know where you're coming from, interpreting the above slightly differently gives you "you gain the new form's abilities and the new form's physical ability scores" I can see the mind locked away logic, and I like it (well enough)...

3.0 makes more sense logically to me, and is a better application of real world physics than 3.5. While I admit that physics has a limited viability in a realm where some people cast fireball, it still seems like it should apply to, say, blades. Small creatures are getting a massive hidden...

Interesting. I've seen some interesting white weeny decks... they just didn't cut it in the environment I was playing in.

In a similiar highly modular way. And based not only on analysis, but on similiar analysis ... And I would draw parallels between windows 98 and XP ,,, wait, that's not what you said. Lol. Interesting history bit there kenobi. Now I'd be interested in hearing if Talislanta had "similiar...

Apparently!! :confused:

Interesting arguement... I can see it conceptually. Of course, for balance reasons I would still not let it be any better than leather armor. Specifically for those high-dex builds. Even granting +1 base, nonmagical AC (compared to leather armor) for only 1000K is really a very very generous...

(Re: Magic's similiarity to 3.X) You mean you've never heard it refered to as "Magic: The Dungeoning"? That used to be such a common joke, too. Feat combo's and card combo's are somewhat similiar... and you can't disagree that 1) 3.X came out after MtG 2) WoTC made it big with MtG, then...

Even better. 20 level mage. Telekenisis. Wagonload of arrows. Cheesy, but it will work... and it can do considerably more than 150 arrows in a single round! Not from a bow, I admit. But that wasn't one of the required details!

"How long do games last?" Variable, of course... and depending wildly on the skill of the player/deck-builder (and luck). I've seen a game end in two "turns". I have a friend who built a deck based almost completely on the "This game will take so long you'll cede me the win just so you can move...

I dunno... I find it pretty easy to justify why none of those swings ever hit. Of course, you have to realize that the characters don't percieve time in "rounds", which is relatively difficult to do, since you play them in rounds. At least, as long as I'm justifying that at lower levels you can...
