    Exotic WP w/o martial WP

    Heh, I suppose it does say that it is a martial weapon when used 2-handed. And as a cleric you are not profficient with martial weapons. That is just silly though. I think any sane DM would rule that your EWP:Bastard Sword lets you use it both one handed and two handed. That bit above is no...

    Starting gold for a 2nd level Character?

    Sorry for the waste of bandwidth but this info is not in the SRD. >:( . I am making a 2nd level character and need to know what the suggested amount of starting gold is for such a person (half-orc druid if that matters).

    Deepwood sniper summary?

    I don't think that Spotting something is quite the same as seeing them unless 3rd Edition is trying to simulate one of those bad MMORPGs where the whole world turns to fog 100ft out. :) If someone were trying to Hide from you half a mile away, then yes it would be nearly impossible to spot...

    Mosters stepping during a full attack

    I believe that the gist of the argument was that then Spring Attack would be useless. (Not saying I agree, just trying to answer your question.) But to summarize the argument that I could not think of in the middle of battle late last night, I guess I should have told them: "You cannot attack...

    Mosters stepping during a full attack

    So it is clear that 6th level fighter could attack, step, and attack. I also believe that a 3rd level ranger with two weapons could make his primary attack, step, and then make his off-hand attack. But could a gargoyle do his claw, his other claw, then step and do his bite and gore? I'm...

    "Erratta'ed Shield Spell"

    So it's my understanding that they meant to erratta the sheild spell but just didn't get around to it. If they had, what were they going to erratta it to? Was it 1)"Provides a +7 Cover bonus to AC" (but no actual cover) or 2)"Provides a +7 Cover bonus to AC and +3 on reflex saves" (but no...

    Does poison damage stack?

    Wow, thanks for the fast answers! And it even makes sense too :D

    Silly druids

    A druid can hurl stones from a sling without penalty. But if he throws one using his hand, he loses all his druidic abilities for a day? He can swing a club just fine, and can swing it in two hands just fine; but he can't use a great club without breaking his vows (profficiency penalties...

    Does poison damage stack?

    It seems to me that poisons do damage to a stat, rather than applying some sort of "Poison Penalty". Therefore they should "stack" just like hit point damage does right? On a similar topic, doesn't the "Bestow Curse" spell also stack since it causes a "-6 effective decrease to an ability score...

    Running away

    Some folks can also Tumble away. It's DC15 to make 20ft of your move AoO-proof. A final option is to make your opponent unable to threaten you, by disarming, tripping(?), blinding, stunning, or other such methods. That could give you a window of opportunity to flee. Really though, the...

    The Singh Rager and Haste???

    The book says "a singh rager can make a full attack at the end of a charge". Your question is then, "Can he do this at the end of a partial charge?" Hmmm, good question. My opinion would be yes; but not with a lot of confidence.

    Blindsight plus darkness -- unsalvageably broken?

    Darkness: Darkness is level 2. Continual Flame is level 3. Continue Flame is a spell of type Evocation [light] Therefore, Continual Flame is not affected by darkness.

    Blindsight plus darkness -- unsalvageably broken?

    Continual Flame costs 50gp, lasts forever, and cancels out Darkness (it has been errated to be a [light] spell). Seems like these would be very common light sources for wealthy (or caster) bad guys. If the whole dungeon isn't lit with everburning torches, at least have the NPCs carry a locket or...

    Madness Prestige Domain too powerful?

    You might want to keep in mind that the character is also, deliberately, going insane. Have him throw some of those spells at the opponents he thinks are attacking. Or maybe, in the heat of battle, he gets a little confused eh? And Rage? Not that big of a deal. Bolts of Madness and the other...

    Knockback and AoOs

    Hehe, imagine 4 ogres in a line, each with the Great Throw feat. The first one grabs the charging fighter and throws him back towards the second. The second uses the AoO thus generated and thows him to the third. Ditto from the third to the fourth. And then the fourth ogre tosses him off the...

    Knockback and AoOs

    Well, if all these work, then I'm guessing that Great Throw (which lets you forcibly move the victim from one square to antoher) would also provide AoO to those nearby right?

    Making Skeletons unturnable

    "Bolster" them with an NPC (or worn item?) and have the area Unhallowed. There are also various MoF spells that make Undead tougher (Iron Bones and the like). And as mentioned above, check out the Bane Guard from Monster of Faerun. They look like normal skeletons but are much more interesting...

    How much subdual can YOU do ?

    In general, extra subdual damage does not convert to real damage. It should also be noted that a person knocked out by subdual damage has a 10% chance each minute of waking up. Also, they heal their level in subdual hit points each hour. You would usually only need to track extra subdual damage...

    Can druid shield bash?

    Sounds good. A wooden shield, with some Brambles or Spikes, would be a nice off-hand weapon then.
