    Silly question I'm embarrased to ask.

    This should clear up some of this sneak attack confusion: Rules of the Game: Sneak Attacks

    Greater True Strike

    IMC I see true strike cast about once every three sessions and nearly always for a ray spell. Most casters IMC don't multiclass though. I don't think my players would ever take quickened true strike though. too expensive (a feat and a 5th level spell). Plus, at the level which you have 5th...

    Need Help: PC vs. PC campaign

    Chaldfont, those ideas are great. I'll be using most of them too. Now to figure out how to make the surprise PC mole.....

    Harper Agent vs. Harper Scout

    It was certainly done for balance. The way it was before - why wouldn't you take it? You'd be foolish not too, unless you were an enemy of the Harpers of course.

    Why Randomized Healing?

    Would you allow a caster to heal only a certain amount if they wanted to? Suppose a cleric casts a cure light wounds healing spell but only wants heal 5 points plus mods. Would you make the person roll and on a die roll of 1 to 4, they heal less than what they wanted - too bad, so sad. A...

    Races of Stone--What do we know about it?

    They do in my campaign. But when they want to impress someone, they'll shave off their stubble. :\

    Min/maxing a human barbarian

    Great suggestions. I did most of those myself when I played my barbarian although I took a warhammer and javalin to have the ablity to dish out different types of damage to counter DR. Granted, not many low CR creatures have DR but hey - And yes, swap dex with con. You'll need the HPs...

    Min/maxing a human barbarian

    A crit from a greatsword averages 14 points of damage while a greataxe critical averages 19.5. A greatsword statically crits twice as often as a greataxe too but remember that not just the weapon's base damage is doubled or tripled. A +1 greatsword will do an average of 8 or 16 while a +1...

    Why Randomized Healing?

    I couldn't imagine how one could spend hours to heal just forty points of damage. IMC we can heal over 100 points of damage between 5 characters in around 5 minutes. Fighter to Cleric: “I’m wounded pretty badly. Can you heal me?” Cleric to Fighter: “Ya. I want to save my spells so I’m...

    Casting from Scrolls

    A rogue/wizard wizard or a rogue/sorcerer would only need to use "Use Magic Device" if attempting to use a divine scroll or an arcane spell not on the spell list of the wizard or sorcerer. An example would be a rogue/wizard trying to use an arcane scroll of cure light wounds which was...

    Barbarian build for taking damage

    I would like some suggestions for building a barbarian that can take a lot of punishment. I’m currently forth level half-orc barbarian and my stats are Str 20 (which was bumped at forth level), Dex 15, Con 18, Int 7, Wis 12, Chr 12. I have power attack and cleave and my skill points are dumped...

    Pesky little Balor

    Tell us the results!! Did the stones weaken him enough or did you end up rolling out a few new characters? How willing was the DM to allow for you to find druids with the ability to summon the elementals and make alliances with celestial beings?

    Pesky little Balor

    It doesn't matter whether you initiate the grapple or not. Once someone has made a successful grapple check, both parties are grappled. Afraid so, you take the fire damage.

    Teleport & Inertia

    I think you should keep the inertia and momentum and allow the caster to make a spellcraft check to slow down/stop if he wants to. If he wasn't the one to cast the teleport spell, as in the case of the teleporting falling trap, he doesn't get the chance and is at the mercy of the trap. Same...

    Homunculi Weight

    I couldn’t imagine shadowy material weighing much so I’d say it would weight a pound at most, if anything at all. My shadow is usually around 5’ long and it doesn’t seem to slow me down one bit. :lol: I’m not very familiar with homunculis or "raw shadowstuff from the Plane of Shadow" though.

    Need Help: PC vs. PC campaign

    See above for my previous ideas. I am trying to think of a reason why the evil group who hangs out in the cave/lair cannot simply exit it to make elaborate ambushes themselves against the good party. When I got to thinking, if I allowed the evil party to make the ambushes against the good...
