All new characters receive 4 ranks to distribute in any combo of Craft, Knowledge, Profession or Perform. They also receive 4 ranks to distribute however they like in any Str or Dex based skill(s). In addition, they get a bonus feat such as Alertness, etc. (one of the +2/+2 skill feats).

I say give it a shot. Seven isn't that many more. The largest amount of players I've run for 3E is 11. With this many you really have to enforce quick turns (a timer becomes necessary). Its helpful at times to stay in initiative outside of combat when multiple people try to act. Have people...

In the current (gestalt) campaign I'm running one of the players plays a Knight / Marshall. The combination seems to be working out for him so far and he's enjoying it. Alone, the Marshall is a bit on the weak side but, as the others have said, he makes a real good right hand man for the big...

Its easy to get people to agree with you when you don't tell them the whole story and sprinkle lies in for good measure. I'm glad you decided not to play. That should speed up the sessions for the other players. For those of you saying "bad DM!" you should really experience a game firsthand...

This could work, but you'd have to use a fair amount of traps and puzzles or other interesting pseudo-encounters. You could use varied, highly-detailed rooms/tunnels, perhaps with frequent secret doors, to make up for the lack of encounters as well. PCs can spend alot of time in huge rooms...

the bottom line... If you're not having fun, I'd suggest another game.

Despite lack of knowledge and generally not being very savvy, they ventured over 50 miles from a big city into the wilderness. They're basically wandering around with nfc. Why they're not sticking close to town, you'd have to ask them. Its certainly not for lack of things to do. As to why...

If you were the DM, would you let him reroll like it says in the PH, or force him to live with it? I would not allow a reroll as it seems he clearly indicated the rolling process. If you got stuck with those stats, what would you do? STR 11 DEX 13 CON 8 INT 13 WIS 6 CHA 8 For...

Maybe, maybe not. It really depends on what I feel like playing. Coward goblin rogue? no min-max. Mighty paladin? yes! min-max. Hard to say really. I can have fun playing anything.

I'm the DM! First of all, I told you when you started (and numerous times after that, including every session and at the end of your last session) your group of two would be "wooshed" to the other party's location as soon as the two different adventure groups could make the same day. Everyone...

I run a gestalt campaign. We use a special point buy: 80 points (1 for 1, starting at 0, minimum stat is 3, max before race adjustments is 18)

Harold, Paragon Quickling Monk (Grandmaster of Flowers)

I'm running a gestalt campaign and I award half experience, but I'm running it in the Wilderlands and that's what they recommend.

I give up Enchantment and Illusion. It is way to easy to be immune to those entire schools. Evocation would be another easy one to give up. I would never give up Abjuration or Necromancy. nevah!

What is everyone else playing in this campaign?

Radiant Servant of Pelor - great for healing and vs. undead Sacred Exorcist - extra turning and permanent consecrate aura The cleric class is so customizable its hard to say what is best. You can definitely find an option for anything you're trying to do though. Good luck.

What are some good feat choices for a Warlock (especially one gestalted with Dread Necromancer)? Any WotC book is fine, other sources need to be approved by the DM. Thanks!

Odd ability scores do have weight... -Feat prereqs -Ability drain/damage That said, I don't see a problem with what you're suggesting, other than possible confusion with some players (they all can't be as brilliant as DMs :] )

I give every class more abilities, in fact, something at every level. Some of the highlights for Fighters: Combat Weaponry (Ex): At 3rd level or higher, a fighter may use weapons with which he is not proficient at a -2 penalty on attack rolls (instead of the usual -4). He may also throw...

So far, in the latest campaign I'm running... Dwarf Ranger/Dragon Shaman Human Barbarian/Dragon Shaman Human Warlock/Dread Necromancer Human Wizard/Artificer There are still 5 more people making characters.
