Yea, ever see a bunch of regular humans try to fight something big and nasty? They use longspears or bows. Only idiot heroes (Mad Mardigan comes to mind lol) would attack a large creature with a sword! ;)

Didn't someone calculate the to-hit vs damage ratio for power attack at higher levels (past 6th, where damage starts ramping up considerably) that showed that a minimum use of power attack was the best use of it (damage per round output)? Or something like that, since high power attacks would...

Reading over the Warmage, there wouldn't be anything from restricting them from doing this. Taking the feat Extra Spell would allow a warmage access to additional spells beyond the evocation school by the looks of it. Yikes, it would take feat expenditure, but now all of those important...

Opens up an even better prestige class idea I suppose, the Weapon Master PrC? I like it!

This info is from a dragon mag article all about illithids that explained how illithids "spawned" so-to-speak. Dang, wish I could remember which Mag that was in, anyone got it?

As the DM, with responsibility to your own group and the game you run for them, it is ultimately up to the game group. Tell the ex-soldier (btw I love the "names" for everyone lol) that you'd like to put things on hold but that the decision ultimately resides with that of your players. Tell them...

OMG moogle, that's just plain awesome!! :D

Wow, nice revision there Ismaul. Mind if I snag this class (and lorethief is a very good name btw) and make it a PrC for my games? Hope you don't mind, thanks!

Sounds like the perfect way to make a Swashbuckler! So if one sneak attack die is worth a feat, does this mean a character could select a feat like Extra Sneak Attack? Requires sneak attack ability and may be selected multiple times, each time selected sneak attack damage cannot exceed normal...

Not to mention that lower level characters receive more XP than their higher level party members. There's your extra pool of XP right there! Not only do you get to make items, you're wealthy enough to buy your own barony, but you ultimately get *more* XP than your fellow PCs. Yea, being an...

Doesn't the blindness only last as long as the duration of the spell? The Blindness/Deafness spell has a duration of permanent, so it's not as good as Blinding someone permanently (or until it gets dispelled at least). The Will save to negate blindness is nice though, compared to B/D's Fort save...

That's Improved Invisibility + Glitterdust I hope heh. :p

Thanks guys!

I'd use a special feat for wearing a shield on your back and be able to retain a shield bonus. There should be a few prereqs for the feat and with at least a +11 BAB requirement, Shield Proficiency, and some other feats that might go with the style. I'd almost require Whirlwind Attack, as that...

As the title, do they?

For a situation such as this I'd have asked the DM for two jump checks in order to jump to the first branch (10 feet high). The first to jump off the ground and hit the trunk of the tree (say 5ft jump) and the second to jump from the trunk to the branch (another 5ft jump). I imagine the 2nd jump...

Ah, must just be the alternate Paladin feature Turn Outsider that I'm thinking of. So exactly how different are the PrC's in Dragon from UA? For censure outsider, you have to look in the Complete Warrior, the Knights of the Chalice PrC IIRC.

Exactly what makes the skill so silly, especially if a character has never been to a place before. If a DM rules they can't use the skill when they've never been there before, what's the point of taking the skill in the first place? Yup, broken down into regional locales, the Knowledge (Local)...

Ah, an old dragon mag then. Gotcha. To be on topic though, I don't use CG paladins but I do makes use of a similar turn outsider class feature that I like alot. Though I think the version of the ability in UA was too powerful and I ended up using a similar mechanic to censure outsider...

That CG avenger sounds alot like what we saw in Unearthed Arcana, don't tell me they reprinted it again in Dragon??
