    Does a (Greater)Magic Weapon on Arrow AND Bow STACK?

    oops I didn't realize that I had gone to the last page and was browsing the postings from two years ago. Guess I need to watch what my mouse is doing from now on.

    damage reduction for armor?

    There is a variant in UA but when my group tried it, it became very cumbersome. Player’s have a tendency to roll out multiple attacks and then add the values together (assuming both hit). Since DR applies to each strike, you have to get them to announce each damage separately and in doing so...

    damage reduction for armor?

    Historically crossbows were fired at much greater force than bows which allowed them to pierce armor at short ranges affectively which is why as crossbows caught on the use of heavy armor declined. However they typically were not as accurate as a trained bowman due to the quality of the...

    Herbalism and Alchemy

    I've always liked the idea of using herbs in games. But to make sure that potions are made useless, I usually assign 80% of herbs to have some sort of hindrance. For instance, tea leaves that when eaten or used in tea, they put an individual into a dreamless sleep (for those characters that...

    Feat: First Strike

    I think this feat is too good. What warrior or rogue wouldn't take this feat? Regardless of one’s dexterity, who doesn’t want to get to attack first regardless of initiative, regardless of being surprised, or the opponent taking feats (spring attack)? Even if I had a fighter with a Dex of...

    Feat: First Strike

    The Withdraw action allows the user to treat the square he or she is currently standing in as if it was NOT threatented by visible opponents. Unless the character with this feat has a reach weapon, their opponent can escape without provoking. But, unless he or she can outrun the fighter, the...

    Help my 12 hp wizard (lvl 4)

    Hmmm. Since our party's wizard just got smited by the DM, I guess I get to pick up his loot. Sweet. Better weapons and armor, hear I come.

    Help a DM w/ Character Creation

    You are clearly going to be playing a campaign with power gamers. I too had many experiences with players rolling up characters and someone rolls badly. Feeling sympathetic for them, I allow them to reroll and they get better than one of the original players. Now that player wants to reroll...

    UA: Whirling Frenzy worth it?

    One only gets the extra attack when taking a full attack. Same goes for weapons of speed or haste.

    Sneak Attack With a Thrown Weapon

    I was mixing this: Volley Type Attacks Sometimes, you make multiple attacks with the same attack roll, such as when you use the Manyshot feat, or you make multiple attack rolls as part of the same attack, such as with the scorching ray spell. When you do so, only the first attack in the volley...

    Rogues and the Alarm Spell

    I'll go with the idea of a rogue having the capability of moving in such a fashion to not set off the spell similar to narrowly avoiding “abjuration lazers” for lack of a better phrase. I’m still not certain I would allow a rogue to disable it but I would allow a rogue to walk through the...

    UA: Whirling Frenzy worth it?

    I love having the whirling frenzy. Gives me an extra attack to make it easier to kill things when they get in my face. If I think I really need to hit a given creature, I just won't use the extra attack so I don't have a penalty. My problem with the barbarian is the low AC. I was at the...

    Dodge feat while mounted

    In the Sword and Fist handbook there is an example of mounted combat on pages 65 to 67. It starts off with two opposing persons on horseback flinging arrows and javalins at each other before engaging in melee combat. One of the people has the dodge feat and he gets to use it. It's a WotC...
