    Cool, but I kinda want hexes :) I remember someone posting it a couple of years ago... :( Rav

    4 classes, no multi-classing

    Unearthed Arcana basic classes: 2x warrior, 2x spellcaster. Have the party take into account their own skills and feat selection, so the rogue functions are divided up. Rav

    Which books does your group use while gaming?

    Pretty much 3.5 core books only, with Unearthed Arcana on hand to check some of teh variants we are using at the moment. FRCS to look up the deities in a solo game I'm DMing (the baldur's gate storyline - he really likes it). Rav

    When Hook Horrors Attack!

    When I played a radiant servant of Pelor, I usually did not even draw my mace. Buffing the group and/or fighter, dispelling nasty stuff (such as enemy haste), and healing took up most of my rounds. When a friend of mine plays a cleric it is always a good melee combatant. I'd say it's personal...

    We Had a Great Game Last Night (Update: Riddles by Request)

    It's good to see positive things like this posted. By nature, messageboards tend to have posts that detail problems and negativity. Good for you! Rav

    [GRIM TALES] armor restricting defense bonus?

    I am unsure about the FDH variant (I have yet to get my hands on a copy of Grim Tales), but in Unearthed Arcana there is a variant where Armour adds to DR and Defense (basically 50/50). If you then say it doesn't stack, but it doesn't restrict each otehr either, you pretty much will see a few...

    Switching from D&D 3.0 to 3.5 -- need advice

    The switch is not that big, so I suggest you get the PHB (because of the spell descriptions, mostly), and the XPH, if you use psionics. When you look at the XPH, you understand that 3.0 psionics had left a lot of room for improvement. You could get Complete warrior I suppose. Complete...

    [POLL] Do you stat out every little detail?

    Beware of the blurts and the head-laugh! :D Rav

    Anyone else find it annoying to figure out skills for NPCs?

    House rule: All skills are class skills for everyone. (edit: I find that) This is only unbalanced if you allow prestige classes with strange skill requirements. I don't allow any prestige classes at all, so I don't have that problem. Rav

    How long have you played D&D?

    8 years or 9 for me. My first attack roll was with a dwarven fighter, wielding a mace. It was a natural 20 on an aggressive black bear! The DM described it as "skin flying around in all directions". It was cool.

    D&D 4E How could 4E be more elegant?

    Indeed. Also remov things that work "sometimes". Like the conditional synergy modifiers. Though I think I'd rather see synergy modifiers gone altogether. Mantra for 4.0 Everything should fit nicely on a 1 page character sheet (barring equipment and spells known/prepared). Fitting nicely with...

    [POLL] Do you stat out every little detail?

    Yeah, that would have been the last option. I had a more accurate description, but I got the "no more than 100 characters" error. WHat I meant with "die" was an attack roll, saving throw etc. "I roll a 16... I guess my guy saved, because I have no idea what his reflex save actually is." Rav

    You're a 3.5 Conjurer. What are your opposed schools?

    Play (True) Neutral. :) Rav, who knows how to min-max alignment.

    Hexes or Squares?

    Of course they would flank! Let's just make the hexes disappear. What do we have? Three people backed against a wall as far as they can! So the middle one has one to the left of him, and the other to the right of him, doesn't get much clearer than that: flanked! To avoid this "problem", I use...

    Anyone else find it annoying to figure out skills for NPCs?

    So I take it you roll in the open then? I have only started rolling in the open recently. Actually, I started rolling in the open since when I didn't stat out everything fully anymore (no fully statted creatures to hide behind the DM screen anymore, hence, no need for the screen). Rav

    [POLL] Do you stat out every little detail?

    That would have been a better way to phrase it... Quite a few results already though... Most fall in the middle three catgories... which is to be expected I suppose... Rav

    Is a DM supposed to ensure level appropriate encounters, by the RAW?

    Uh, I've been away from the site for a year and suddenly there's new jargon... For Freya's sake, what does RAW mean. Last I checked it was a capitalization error of "not cooked". Rav
