The ECL of that would be +2, considering it is a orc + a little bit. The ECL calculator undervalues attributes. You can have a +50 charisma race with ECL 0.

Roll once for the hiders and once for the spotters and apply individual skill mods. Roll initiative and skip the turn of every spotter who failed to spot anyone during the surprise round. After the surprise round everyone is aware of everyone else. (unless some unspotted hider stays hidden)

Is this limited to just WoTC classes because if you think those were bad, wait till you hear these from Librum Equis: Tainted Warlock Lose 7 caster level progression and gain one permanent negative level to add +2d8 to single target spells on failed save (unless it is disintegrate or slay...

I happened to have a chance to pick up a number of AEG products in a bundle of products. They are typically difficult to find, in fact the only store (online or retail) that I've ever seen carry them is right here in the d20 reviews online store. Its a shame because if this product had more...

Every four levels you get, the horse gets +2 HD, +2 AC and +1 str.

Is the character the symbiote or is the symbiote something you add to your character at creation. Who is gaining the experience, the host or the symbiote?

Nothing says you have to award experience at the end of the session. Nothing says you have to do anything to level up. If during a session you cross the line to the next level, take your hps, skills and BAB and memorize your new spells at the next opportunity. The rule is to stop a 1st level...

The smiting effect makes your smite abilty 4x as good, twice as many at twice the effect. That's probably the best use. Lay on hands isn't too bad if you have a big charisma bonus and a high level. You can vaporize liches etc with a touch (+10 mod x 20 level x 2=400 hp) Turn attempts at +1...

Or bracers of resistance instead of a cloak. Magic items are flexible that way. The vestment is worn over armor while a shirt is worn under. You wouldn't typically wear a robe over full plate but you would over a mithril chain shirt.

Yes, 5 sizes smaller is too small and 2 sizes smaller is too big. 5 sizes is the difference between a fire giant and a fruit fly.

If you want to use the DotF feats like Divine Might and Divine Shield you need a high charisma because those feats grow exponentially in power as your charisma rises. If you have 14 cha you get +2 AC and +2 dam for 2 round, 5x per day, if you have 30 charisma you get +10 AC and/or +10 dam for 10...

There are skill feats, save feats, initiative feats and combinations thereof. 2 skill points = +2 init = +1 save or +2 in a limited circumstance and you get any 2 bonus you like, this is what brought about the idea of the mix/match half feat. About 250 feats fit in this formula which makes the...

These items can be found in the PsiHB, OA, and MotW. They might be found other places and also in the creating magic item guidelines which is where the formulas used for items in WotC products comes from. There is also a 2nd level spell on the wizards.com site that gives +20 competence to a...

You can use bardic music 1x/day for each bard level you have. If you spend some 20 skill points on perform then your one use per day is better than it was but it is hardly worth the cost. One level of bardic knowledge is like having one rank in use magic device. Humans who have 3 or more...

If you enjoy roleplaying a character that can't use contractions or can't think of anything useful that's fine but if I want to act in a more normal fashion that's my perogative as the player. One only suffers from having a low charisma if they happen to be adventuring alone. Even then a low...

There aren't feats to duplicate most class abilities but there are feats superior to class abilities and spells the substitute for class abilities (spells are a class ability of their own.) Someone with divine grace isn't going to fail a fear save, Specialization is +2 damage on every attack...

From the Q-splat books Reckless Attack - Subtract from AC and add to damage an amount no higher than your BAB [str 15, power attack] Change the pre-reqs and you've got your finesse-type feat.

You just completely ignored my point that giving everyone more skill point does not "nerf" the rogue. The rogue has double the max ranks in most skills and still has exclusive skills. If the paladin had 12 skill points per level he would still not be the equal of the rogue in skills. (assuming...

You never want to cross the line between skills and feats though. That eliminates the difference between fighters and rogues. Making class abilities feats is just making a classless d20 system. I like half feats because it makes those lesser feats more viable. There are already some 500 feats...

Are you saying it should be 1st or that it should be lower? Fighter is front loaded. You get a feat of choice for the first level. It is the most universally helpful for any non-spell casting class. Rangers may get 3 feats but if you don't want any of them then it isn't front loaded for you...
