Well, considering this was originally designed for the low LA's I can see there is flaws. (Then again, what system doesn't?) My DM was never considering people going past the 2 or 3 mark max for most of his campaigns. But as noted above, the % xp eventually gets pretty over the top and stacks...

@Patryn of Elvenshae Well as a general rule, unlike most humanoids; lizardfolk only get along with lizardfolk. Even if they were to use such a disguise outside sch an environment they would be treated as monsters or with very harsh eyes on any sort of other humanoid settlement. Which is where...

That was essentially why he went for the Snatch feats as the ability says it 'acts like Improved Grab' so he could utilize the use of the ability easier. But we have no idea if all creatures technically already have 'Swallow Whole' (like an unnamed rule) or if creatures somehow gain progression...

Well for this particular instance we are only dealing with +1's. So at this time its not an issue. My thoughts on a higher LA is either extending the duration of the XP penalty or just increasing the rate per LA. like 10% was for +1s. a +5 would be 50% until it payed off I suppose. (Just a...

@kahn_bloodbane Aye, this is the typical normal situation most people with LA's have to deal with. Which in the long run, eventually starts to hurt the PC with the adjustment. We like to keep our parties balanced on both spectrum's, for normal PC's or monsters. They get a small nice bonus at...

Okay, so got quite the oddball case here. Hoping to get a few answers about it. We got a (natural) Wereserpent Monk that is trying a rather 'interesting' build from what we've seen. We already clarified about the natural weapons vs monk strikes and he seems fine with that. (Preferring monk...

@Patryn of Elvenshae What if additional restrictions were to apply? Like for instance the caster can only stick to that build or look of lizardfolk once decided and each time they cast they would retain that specific look rather than a different one. Or have some sort of restriction about...

If I was a mean DM, the beginning of the game would probably go like this: *Takes sheets.* Hm, thanks for NPC's they will come quite in handy. Now about your characters... I think cursed and afflicted goblins will be a good challenge for you veterans.

With the addition of the tail, would they benefit from having such or is it a purely magical aesthetic addition? Which could affect the potency of the spell. Overall the specifics limitation is a notable restriction (but provides enough variations to still be a suitable disguise) something...

Yes, but the benefit matter's little. If defense is needed, I use my Improved Combat Expertise, if attack is needed, I'll use True Strike for a +20. (Thanks to SotAO). The increased caster level would only affect my paladin spells and not the ones from SotAO. (It notes that caster levels for...

As its one of the Paladin's weakest saves, I think its fine. As the tank avoiding nasty Will saves is something useful to benefit in most dire situations. As useful as Law Devotion is; already have several options to increase AC that isn't restricted to alignment. DM removed Leadership and...

Thanks guys. Think this sums up all I was asking. Now I have to figure out how to buff my paladin caster level now. XD

Hrm, well the whole purpose of the feat was to boost my Will. I see it as equivalent as a construct/undead taking a feat that fatigues you, even though they know they are immune. I'm just taking advantage of the rare instance of where a fear effect doesn't work, to provide a benefit. (After all...

So there's been a few issues that have come up about my Paladin character that has unfortunately halted us mostly due to game balance. 1. I've decided to become a Mystic Fire Knight (deity Mystra), and take all the substitute options and have reached level 4. The extra bonus spells were...

Mostly the point of, if dragons and other beasts were 'people' why are you unable to use Handle Animal on humanoids or such? Why are those kinds an exception? They are smart beings are they not? Handle Animal should be useless in any way shape or form just like it would be trying to use it on a...

I think this is what I make of it; Rogue's can emulate features that require a prerequisite for example: "Chalic of Healing; To use, a player must have turn undead as a class ability; use Cure serious wounds 3x per day." Something like that would work, since the Rogue can emulate having Turn...

Personally, punishing a new DM who is only trying to understand how to play won't benefit any of you. If the DM becomes frustrated he will either quit (once again your DMless, good job) or he will 'cheat' to deal with you guys doing so unless he is a very experienced DM than what is claimed to...

Seems all the links are dead. Damn google. Ah well, no worries. I'll see if I can find another source for the material mentioned. Thanks though. :)

404 unfortunately. ^..^;; Damn was hoping for an interesting read.

The DM does it kinda half and half. Party XP for monster encounters or group instances and separate XP for special or solo instances (not involving large fights) such as acting in character or such. But I haven't heard of the Frank&K's version. (Unless it goes by a different name.) The current...
