    Valenar Elves (Eberron)

    Do you have Races of Eberron? It gives Valenar elves proficiency with the shortbow, scimitar, and Valenar double scimitar instead of the normal elf weapon proficiencies.

    If an "archer" is a bow specialist, what's a crossbow specialist?

    I would agree with you if the sorcerer in my current Drow War campaign wasn't wasting everything she goes up against with her blasted crossbow. :eek: She has cast 3 spells in 3 game sessions, but has fired 5 - 8 bolts and caused more damage then either of the knight and the hexblade. Between...

    Is WOTC falling into a problem like the old TSR did

    Don't forget that TSR also had to deal with Magic: The Gathering bursting onto the scene right around that time, too.

    Look in the section on the feats, the legacy feats define what levels they unlock at. Also, in the section on designing your own Legacy items tells this info. Least is from 5th to 10th, inclusive. Lesser is from 11th to 16th, inclusive. Greater is from 17th to 20th, inclusive.

    Spell/weapon clarification

    The "Weapon-like Spells" rule first came out in the 3.0 book Tome and Blood. Complete Arcane reprinted it with some great clarifications.

    How bad does the bard suck?

    I'm not Darklone, but . . . He said Celestial Chainmail, not Chain Shirt. Celestial Chainmail is a mithral chainmail (ie medium armor that counts as light.). Bards can wear any medium armor as long as it is made from mithral, thus making it light armor as per WotC. All stats can be dump...

    OotS 393!

    Dashing Swordsman is a 10 level class according to Elan's mentor (can't remember his name). Looks good otherwise, but I want Rich to post his version. :D

    Stormwrack question - ship damage

    A reef would stop the ship when it hit. There are rules for that (I don't have my book handy). I ude it for when my group dropped a Huge water elemental in front of a ship and had it grab the ship. Ouch. :eek:

    Should prestige classes be better than base classes?

    I did say "in the main". :D Overall, I can't find any major fault with any of the PrCs that WotC has put out. Some do not fit my homebrew world (Blood Magus, I'm looking at you. :lol: ), and WotC needs (needed) to own up to their errors better (BAB less Halfling Outrider, anyone?). I would...

    Should prestige classes be better than base classes?

    Definitely not. If they are "better" as you describe, then no one will stay in a base class once they can get into a prestige class. Now, if the base classes were like the ones in D20 Modern (ie Fast Hero, Smart Hero, so on), then I think that the prestige classes would have to be "better" to...

    Moo! Err... Bovines in D&D

    Actually, the minotaur was the offspring of a sacrifical bull and the Queen of Crete. The refused to sacrifice the bull, so Zeus decided to teach him a lesson and got Aphrodite to make the Queen fall in love with it. Kinky, huh? :lol:

    How much profanity in your game?

    Since I retired from the Navy, my games have gotten cleaner in that area. My new campaign is at my FLGS, so I expect that one to be the cleanest yet.

    Would the sabre be unbalanced?

    Based on the stats in the FRCS, it has a crit mult of x2. D20 Modern does not use crit mults. Otherwise it is the same as the longsword.

    Weapons of legacy, when do you need which feat?

    As per the prerequisites for the feats (page 14): Least Legacy - 5th to 10th Lesser Legacy - 11th to 16th Greater Legacy - 17th to 20th Also, read the section on creating legacy items in chapter 4 (page 179). Pages 182 & 183 really help clear things up. I wish they had put this together in a...

    Feat every level...

    FYI, a human fighter at 20th level gaining a feat every level + his normal fighter bonus + racial bonus feats will have 32 feats. The human wizard would have 26 (and 5 of them are metamagic or item creation). In the past, I gave out a feat at every odd level. It worked fine with no problems. In...

    With which race do you identify?

    I seem to end up in the weird seats today. Human for me, but not the core standard human. I seem to be drawn to the strange human subbreeds like azurins, illumians, dvati, and so forth.

    Tome of Battle Monk class?

    Swordsage is the monk, as far as I am concerned. The Diamond Mind style is what the monk tries to be. Why not just use it that way?
