    Which PrCl would you never want in your game? (part 1 - DMG)

    It's not worth it. Trust me. I ruined a perfectly good character by picking up that PrC.

    Treasure Quests

    I picked it up for $5 at the Motor City Comic Con. Even if I hate the content, I can always throw it at my cat to get my moneys worth.

    D&D should go point based!

    The thought of it causes my head to hurt. I like the way D&D is now. I don't see it becoming a point based game. It would be throwing out many years worth of blood, sweat, and tears that the industries best have poured themselves into. And I, for one, would never accept it and would simply stop...

    Youre favorite style of Elf

    No cold medicine this time guys! Oh, and I would like to thank you all for your concern about me being sick. Or lack of... ;) I just don't like how... lame the elves look in the PHB. Or how they looked in the 80's and early 90's. Back then they looked like Vulcans with Jerry-curls. Ewwwww. But...

    Youre favorite style of Elf

    First off, please forgive me for any mistakes in this post. I have taken some cold medicine and it makes my head all fuzzy-like. In many RPG's elves have different looks. Never seems to be a consensus on what style is preferred. So the style I like the best is the one shown in the Warcraft RPG...

    What Does it Take to be a D&D DM?

    I think what is most needed to be a good DM is the desire to DM. Without it you are just going through the motions, and every one else will notice. For the most part, I am my groups primary DM, even though I havn't sat in that seat for almost a year. But I am planing to take up the mantle once...

    Dragon Disciple... Worth it?

    You just get bonus spells as if it was from a high stat. If it was at half progression, it would be worth it. Although it might be worth it if you were a Hexblade. But in that case, I would be more inclined to take the Dragon Samurai from the Miniatures Handbook.

    Dragon Disciple... Worth it?

    NO! I made a sorcerer who ended up a dragon deciple and it turned out to be a horrible choice. I lost seven levels worth of spell casting for nothing worth mentioning. If you do feel compelled to pick it up here is a suggestion: Take up ranks in Craft (firearms), make a flintlock pistol, put it...

    Settings you want to like

    For me it' always been FR. I've read the books, I know the setting, and I like it. But as a player it's just never clicked. My group is slpit in half on which is a better setting to play in DL or FR. Since I'm a DL nut I go for that first. But as a player I find both not very player friendly. FR...

    Incursion Help

    I plan on using The Greyhawk setting. The main reason, I am from Michigan and according to the Living Greyhawk book it puts me at groung 0, or as I call it Furyondy. The second, and please don't flame me, the whole Greyhawk setting always seemed too generic for me so i don't mind tearing it...

    Incursion Help

    I am starting a group of new charactors in the Incursion campaign (as listed in Dragon #309 and Dungeon #100) and was wondering if anbody ran this or had any suggestions. The reason why I ask is that, as a DM, I have never attempted anything this grand and massive in scale. To be honest, I am a...

    Do you miss old D&D class names?

    What's in a name? I liked the titles, but they were a little before my time. They just seemed to add a little more... Colour to the game. I am not too fond of the fact that leveling up is just a number and not an aquired title. Of course how you get these titles is beyond me. Was their a...

    How to Explain Evasion?

    Two words: Matrix Evasion . You just pull some Matrix type crap and take no damage. It's not any more of a stretch then a spell-flinging elf. Or is it? :\

    Music in your sessions?

    For the most part we don't use background music, but when we do it's Midnight Syndicate. Another reason why we don't listen to too much music while playing is because our group is always bouncing from place to place. None of us wants to bring a cd player along with a mountain of books. You got...

    Magic Jar and the Tarrasque

    I say meet them half way on the SR issue. The Big T does not have the grey matter or the desire to turn off it's own SR. The Wizard in the Big T's body has the smarts, but doesn't automatically know how to turn off the SR. Make the Wizard take an INT, WIS, or appropriate skill check to see if...

    Encountering anti-D&D sentiment

    A gay Christian tried telling me I was going to Hell. Oh the irony. Too bad this guy was cool anyways, so I did't go on an anti-Cristian Cult rant. But hes dead now, so I guess he is keeping a place saved for me in Hell. It will be nice to go back there and see the old gang again...

    What traditional fantasy conventions are you tired of?

    I really don't care about women PC stat adjustments. It was never an issue for me. If you want to put that kind of flavor in your world be my guest. Well, you don't need my permission. But like I said, I recall a 2ed product covering that topic. So I figure that if your going to do it, use...

    What traditional fantasy conventions are you tired of?

    Well, every one seems to be tossing in their two-cents. So heres mine adressing some of the topics brought up on this thread. Hobbits: I hate hobbits. No I really, really, REALLY hate hobbits. Back in 2nd ed I never touched halflings because they looked like hobbits. Every time I see a hobbit...

    Useless arcane or divine spells

    Here are some useless spells I found: Cloud Shape: You can shape any nonmagical cloud Devlins Barb: You create an arrow, bolt or sling-stone. It disappears after use Pirates Booty: Causes up to 100hd of creatures to forget about the pirates booty. This can include the caster. Sum Up: You can...

    Useless arcane or divine spells

    Ok, I have been gaming since I was seven and playing D&D since I was fourteen (I am twenty-two now) and I was wondering, what is the most useless spell you have ever seen? I have seen some pretty bad ones, like one that lets the caster read faster. What I consider useless is a spell that would...
