    Stacking Flaming and Shocking?

    Haste doesn't allow an extra step because you only get a single 5' step per round, and then only if you don't move at all otherwise. Once you took the 2nd 5' step, you've moved 10'. Its not a step anymore if you will. As far as the FRA/Partial. You can take a full round action to attack at...

    Is using poison an evil act?

    I don't see Evil as a descriptor on the Poison spell, so I'd say its not evil in and of itself. In your situation its definately ok by any means. Poisoning humaniod beings might be construed as being evil, and its certainly dishonorable, but it really depends on the situation. Poisoning an...

    Polymorphing your familiar

    Personally I wouldn't want to make my familiar, which has only 1/2 my hps and does terrible things to me when it dies, a large creature everyones going to attack and try to kill. Call me crazy, but this one seems to balance itself fairly well in most respects.

    Stacking Flaming and Shocking?

    Not in the rules per say (as in there currently aren't any items that do such a thing), but it falls under the domain of Crafting Magic Items. "I want to make a scabbard that would let me keep my flaming sword activated while it was sheathed so I don't have to use a standard action to light it...

    Rogue/Barbarian sneak attack while raging?

    The Sage does not errata. At the time that was the BAB progression for the Outrider (until people pointed out it was a really stupid idea). So they then errata'd it. Skip doesn't chaneg existing rules. At the time his comment was correct, even by the account of the person that made the PrC. He...

    D&D 3.x potion of LONGEVITY (3e)

    Re: Re: Re: Hehehe... Well most suicide bombers (homicide bombers?) have that as an incentive. The family gets roughly $10k for them blowing themselves and some innocent Isrealis up.

    Stacking Flaming and Shocking?

    By this rule a torch wont burn either. Or a log. Are you going to tell me wood doesn't burn? Those rules handle instant effects well, but not ongoing effects (like say setting a piece of wood on fire). The scabbard might not be destroyed instantly, but rest assured that a piece of wood left in...

    "Too Precise" Spell Effects

    Personally I just make them pick an intersection and go with it. If they've calculated it all out before hand, good for them for paying attention. What I don't allow anymore is a 5-10 minute graphing section where they seek to maximize the effect of the spell to hit as many opponents as possible...

    spell power +1

    Personally I just take Create Wonderous Item, start with a +2, build it up to +4, and then one day get to +6. No item is that hard to have with the right feats and a high level character. Not to mention the ones that can be slowly "built" over the course of your career.

    Magical Sneak Attack Q

    Everything overrides the SRD. Usually its pretty right on, but the actual books (even the crappy ones) always take precidence over the SRD.

    Pulling out someone elses weapon.

    Its also angled so the fighter can get it out easy, meaning its higher than the goblin's and angled wrong. Not to mention all the fighter has to do is turn his body and the sword wont come out of the sheath easily. I'd personally think a grapple check isn't too far out of line, but then again...

    ECL+1 and 0 level classes

    Seems like a good idea to me. I'd also considered doing the same thing. Its perfectly reasonable and they don't really get much of a gain, and once you hit 2nd level its all back to normal.

    Double Move and Hide

    The guard can probably figure where hes at. If you stab me and then try to hide behind a bush, you can bet I'll go over to the bush and kill him. It really depends on the situation, in most cases its nearly impossible to hide again after being spotted (unless your a Shadowdancer). As far as the...

    Flea vs Dragon 1-0

    Wish can't kill. Miracle can't kill. Imprisonment allows SR. Power Word Kill allows SR, would require several hundred hp of damage to bring down a dragon, assuming you beat its SR. Temporal Statis allows SR, can be dispelled with dispel magic. None are instant-kills. They all allow SR if...

    Stacking Races

    Fey'ri should be at least +4ECL, but if your DMs playing that kind of game, I don't think it will matter. Anything with the potential for natural DR, dimension door and Enervation should be pretty high ECL. Not to mention all the other great abilities(natural flight, alternate form at will...

    Would you allow 'Craft Magic Arms & Armors' and the Psionic version to interact?

    Psionics and Magic are different even if they are "the same". Most psionic items require powers to make(or PP to use). You could replace them with spells I suppose, but it doesn't always work (and vice versa). How would you handle a PsiBane weapon? Would it do +2d6 to anything that casts...

    ghost's horrific appearance ability...

    Under CR'd at low levels, but about right at higher levels. Ever the problem with templates.

    armed/unarmed switch

    No matter how it works out, you can't get free attacks without some sort of penalty. By the rules you can't really get any other attacks if you are using a two handed weapon (no "off-hand" attacks that is).

    Mirror Image verses Blindsight

    I'd say the dragon is immune to the Mirror Image. If the players don't like it the dragon can close his eyes and become immune (the spell description actually say that counters it). From what I recall Blur and Displacement are also countered by Blindsight (for obvious reasons). Though one could...
