You'd probably run into the 'If it quacks like a duck...' argument there. If the comparable item is a ring, then the item should cost as much as the ring, and probably require Forge Ring.

I'd be scared to death of using 'Realism' as an excuse for any ruling. It just opens up too many options for powergaming "...but the actual force exerted on him should be __, therefor I do an extra 52 points of damage!"

It's interesting: Ghidora managed to get off a couple double breath weapon attacks on me (the mage), but they came quite close enough to not finish me off. The breath weapons, at 24d8, average to 108 points of damage a piece, double that and it's 216 points of damage. The caster has 237 hp. He'd...

Try multiplying hitpoints by 0.75, it could be a whole lot simpler. The increased damage from weapons would suddenly make magic weaker, and there are all sorts of balance issues with enchantments... the list goes on. If things are harder to kill, and there's a massive damage rule. Also, try...

Please, whatever you do, DO NOT GIVE HIM ANY MORE IDEAS. He's evil and nefarious enough already, I don't think demiurge needs any more help.

Nifty.

Oh, ok. Just wanted to make sure, double check and all that ;)

If you have a high enough Use Magic Device, have the spider use a Wand of Silence (4500gp), then attack the characters as they sleep. A sleeping character is always considered flat footed, and if the area is Silenced, the spider has another round or to finish him the character off without threat...

I was using your username, unless you want me to start giving out your personal info online. I'm more than happy to help out any enterprising stalkers wishing your death ;) Also: The level drain induced by a Souldrinker is a spell-like ability (Energy Drain, as specifically mentioned in the...

Sounds good to me. Celestial makes no mention of a specific material, but rather an enchantment on the armor, so mithril sounds good.

I've always wondered why the monk class used size as a determinant in damage dealt, speed etc. The minor benifits (+ 1 or 2 to AC and attack) of small size are a hit that is static, meaning that as a character increases in level, those benifits soon become marginalized. However, for monks, the...

Not a rematch against an undead though. He got raised, and if he was undead that would mean my shadow storms and soul sucks wouldn't work :(

Well, yes and no. You forgot to roar, and even though I had 3 quickened silences memorized (plus 2 more), I forgot to cast them. And with my actual caster level of 42 (not bloody 36. I forgot my spell power +1, +2 and +3 adding to caster level), most of them would have gotten through. Ghidorah...

Hmm... I've heard of all of these, except the polearm twink. How in the heck does that one work (setting against a charge, perhaps?)

Problem: Unless you're 21st level, you can't take epic feats (to my knowledge).

If you've got OA... Take a level of samurai. That allows you to directly sacrifice magic items to your Ancestral Katana (aka a bastard sword). Effectively, you're cutting the cost of upgrades in half (because you don't have to sell weapons to get gold to upgrade). To make that sword as good as...

Well, I would have taken Jin, but that name was already taken (I believe). You didn't kill him (Though you sure as hell tried. Intentionally blowing yourself into the astral plane sure can be handy when you've got Putrification cast on you, and only seconds to live.) Anyways, Arc was a shared...

Yep... that SR 53 is going to hurt. I don't look forward to it, but I don't think I'm supposed to :)

Here's where I get confused about fireballs: If you cast one into a 10x10 tunnel, does that mean it goes 330 feet? The whole 'expanding gases' idea would have that work, but that seems a bit iffy.

Hmmm... there are plenty of 'not quites' in our group, but a few major plot items and epic actoins that were passing ideas that we threw around, and ended up actually doing. Biggest: The half-orc fighter asked my arcane archer mercenary if he would be interested in working as a merc in the...
