    D&D monks and their lameness :)

    I dont really understand. If you are 'Pure Lawful' under this variant, you're Lawful...but NOT good or evil...OR neutral? How is that possible?

    Golem Immunity

    WHY are Golems immune to magic-not just resistance but immunity to anything that would normally allow resistance? Where did the idea come from? Does it have any folkloric base? Is it something D&D did to be different, or is there design commentary? Or was it always that way? I always...

    Tropes that need to die

    What about the Wizard Kings? There's got to be some of those. And couldnt an 'adventurer' just be a kind of name for a wandering mercenary or 'sellword'? An even in real life, there were treasure hunters, tomb looters, etc. Stoner/Cali-Elves? Where have there ever been those?

    New Dark Sun books - worthwhile for different systems?

    I doubt it, I remember people wondering whether WoTC shut them down on gitp and rpgnet one-two month ago. Seems to be having trouble.

    D&D 3.x Another "Wish" question. 3.5.

    AFAIK temporary increases or from spells, or permanent magic items aren't 'inherent' qualities. I believe by RAW those dont allow to make prerequisites, albeit you could certainly rule that way if you wanted. I personally believe a PC ought to have all the feats/stats/casting requirements/skill...

    Has this ever happened to you? (DM & Surprise Wish Spell)

    How come no one makes Ring of Miracles? In any case, just hope your DM doenst turn out as jackass genie (literal sucks too, but wishes are like that...). http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/JackassGenie As for the sword waving? Hey, gandalf was pretty badass dual wielding shortstaff...

    How to beat the "20 always succeeds" rule

    Um.... As I understand it 1. Most spells do use a standard action to cast. 2. Also, most spells allow a save Now, the spell lasts 1 round/lvl and ANY time the enemy creature takes ANY action they roll TWICE and take the WORST result-attack rolls, saves, damage rolls, grapple checks EVERY...

    Hirelings/Cohorts? Does any every hire them?

    Good, good. But it wouldnt it have been better to attract a cohort/follower/cultist that would be WILLING to become your intelligent undead servant? But hey, whatever works. :devil: Thats what it is to be a colorfully pragmatic free spirit. "Teeth? Why there aren't enough TEETH in that...

    Questions about skeleton

    I agree that maybe they wouldnt know how to use a doornob to circumvent a door-but what about a simple waist high fence or barrier like a toppled bookshelf? Would they know to go OVER the fence or would they just tear apart the fence to the best of their ability?

    What can a wizard do....

    Or a Ring of Freedom of Movement (40Kgp) or any of the command activated teleportation items in MiC. Dimension Stride boots are only 2Kgp for example. Those will work for casters, Ring would probably be better for those that expect themselves to be in melee and at much greater risk.

    D&D 3.x Another "Wish" question. 3.5.

    Could a character WISH for a Feat? (not an extra one, but to change feats) Could a character WISH for a level or experience? Some minor Artifacts like a BoVD, BoED and then the other alignment based books (in EPH I THINK) can allow you to gain a level in a divine or arcane spellcasting class...

    What is arcane magic?

    But the whole cajoling spirits thing sounds more like a Druid Deal by d&d standards, doesnt it?

    How long can you stay level XXX and still have fun

    OVER 900 Hours?! *Scouter explodes* I dunno...PER level? Well, I can recall starting a game at lvl 5 in october, and the party being about 8-9 by the following May (I also went through 3 characters), so about 3-4lvls over the course of 7-8 months/28-32 games? It seems like we played MOST...

    What is arcane magic?

    Well maybe I'm wrong here for taking it into an Anime/Manga example; but in Full Metal Alchemist everything they do with Circles to most common people LOOKS like magic, but they repeatedly remind lay people that it is a science. (Even though it basically is Functional Magic.) Whether using...
