I don't see where this makes a difference. If you combine Spot and Listen, obviously a character with a flaw such as blindness or deafness would take a penalty to the skill (my top of the head guess is a -6). But such character could still invest skill points and become very well honed at the...

Here's the problem that I have with Spot and Listen as two separate skills. Spot is seeing things, and listen is hearing them. In the PHB, their basic purposes are to defeat hide and move silently. But for non-hiding related spot checks, where are the other senses? Touch? Taste? Smell? (yes...

I was told (and I may be wrong here) that that's not true for most people. Most people take up to 3 months to fully heal, and some don't heal for up to 2 years.

My aunt had Lasik 4 years ago, and my boyfriend had PRK in June. I'll go through the risks/benefits below. LASIK is much less painful than PRK, and the recovery time is theoretically less. However, if you are physically active, LASIK is not right for you. (Hence the reason the military...

Our wizard beefed up the party. The rogue and fighters in the party went up and distracted the big baddies, and then the cleric "locate object"ed the keystone, and "stone shaped" it so that it wouldn't support the weight of the bridge anymore. Everyone then used their pre-planned methods to...

Belen, how many times do I have to tell you that that was a previous clone? And we all know that current clones are not responsible for the actions of previous treasonous clones.

That's right folks. The more drunk you are, the cooler I get. ;)

Wednesday: Getting in at midnight, and still finding the Canadiana to be in full swing. Thursday: True Dungeon (though it started out a bit stressful) was still awesome. Kiznit totally stole the show by solving most of the puzzles immediately. I got to playtest a lot of new games on...

That was a fantastic game. I'd never played Paranoia before, but this has ensured that I will again. Good times, guys. :)

Even worse. :(

I once had my entire MtG and Star Trek CCG collections stolen at church. That's when I learned, if they'll steal at church, they'll steal anywhere. Sorry your friend lost his entire collection. That really sucks.

I lied. This years badges are bigger than last year's because that's all the store had. If you guys want to add your names because of that, feel free, but please do it by 4pm today. That's when they're printing. Thanks.

Out of curiosity, would you allow any of bard, loremaster, or cloistered cleric levels to stack in a character that had all 3, for the purpose of bardic knowledge/lore checks?

What's the difference? Class level + Intelligence still determines the same check which is rolled on the same table. I'm honestly not seeing what you see. Here's what the cloistered cleric has to say about Lore. Lore (Ex): Thanks to long hours of study, a cloistered cleric has a wide range...

Because eventually, you end up with 3 attacks, 9th level wizard spells, and 7th level cleric spells. I guess sucking up the first 14 levels makes it less broken though.

Really? When looking up Lore in the glossary of the PHB, it specifically references Bardic Knowledge (if I remember correctly, I don't have the books). The Cloistered Cleric's lore also (I believe) defines its lore with bardic knowledge. Not only the bonus language, but the loremaster Secret...

I'll be there. :)

Do headbands of intellect and fox's cunning stack? I was under the impression that items which require the spell to create don't stack with that spell. Ie. Bracers of armor don't stack with Mage Armor, and Cat's Grace doesn't stack with Gloves of Dex.

It can be overpowered once you get there, but the first 10 levels are a pain. I've made one conventionally, and it's not too terrible, but I'm working on a variant wizard/cleric entry that's required careful planning since level 4. Rogue 2/ Wizard 5/ Loremaster 2/ Cloistered Cleric 1 /...

For me, it's more of a precautionary measure than something from experience. But this is also my first year coordinating volunteers.
