Skill points, no. Cleric has 2, wizard has 2, fighter has 2, so sorcerer has 2. Yes to Use magic device, no to diplomacy. Maybe to sense motive. Don't care for this one. Happen to like this. Think that this is should be how eschew material should be done. No to all. Let them buy them as...

I like the idea of each missle having a reflex saving throw. But that means that rogues aren't going to be hit that much. How about the monk catch one with each +1 enhancement consideration? And I like fireball potions. 5' range mod. 50' max range 20' radius Dangerous but fun. More later...

Shouldn't drawing arrows from your quiver be a 'drawing a weapon' move equivelent action? Thought of it recently. More later, Vahktang

Tales of areas of untouched high tech(magic). Everybody talking about how 'the good old days' were better than now. Ananchronisms. A cargo ship in the middle of the desert. Remember big beasts need a hot world. Deeply buried undead who want to destroy the world to remake it. Ancient...

Use the tables. It is not teleport without error, after all. Anybody can roll a 00. And have some interesting similiar areas when they do come in ready. If someone teleports into my house uninvited, I'm going to be pissed. So, I chase them down. Look, new enemies! And the 'very familiar' is...

Had a thought: If there's a dragon cult and the dragon knows about the prophecy (so the cult does too,) and since the cult knows about the weapons: Big fighters with big weapons and sunder! Want to take a weapon away _and_ have an adventure? Pop one of these bad boys in. Large weapon (two...

Don't think anyone addressed this one. Spiked chain. Gives you reach and is finessable. As an added bonus, you can trip with it, disarm with it, and hit adjascents with it. Only thing you can't do is set against charge. Only thing I can think of. Does that work for you? And sword and shield...

Been to Vegas lately? :) More later, Vahktang

I know the feeling. I had Formians invading the land in my campaign yesterday. The big baddie had it all set up. Teleport without error away. Nearby formian workers to do a cure serious after cure serious. Teleport back. Hack into party. Two of the PC's had cursed items making them vulnerable...

Ask the players. If they want to do this sort of campaign, then what you are doing is fine. Yes, these intelligent magic items are way over powered for first level. If I was bandit/brigand/noble/gnoll and heard about them, I'd bring about a force, slay the party and grab the stuff. But...

Aaawww. That's nice. And that's Kewl. My parents never really questioned me about it. I was kind of a latchkey kid by then. But my buddy burned his books. And we were all going "If you want to get rid of them, give them to us!" More later, Vahktang

I GM but I have a world GM who's world we play in. He has pages of house rules/campaign stuff (common is a pidgin language, all races are varients of humans with 'traits', etc). But some are quite useful and important: Death is not -10 HP, but -10 + CON bonus Just makes more sense to me...

Not the spell, they can't. But otherwise, yes. Evil Eeeevil. I like them. Low level favorite: Obscuring mist. I have an Osyluth (demon) that the party met in mid levels that is still troubling them at high level. He does invisibility then a 5' 'step' straight up. Nobody has yet thought to go...

Amen, brother. Me, too, but different systems, different ways. But that's just me. I hope you make that roll before you make all the others. I'd hate to do the entire character, then find out it died before play. Well, you could try role playing your character. Not just the stats. That sounds...

D20 discourages dice roles. Some spells are a straight bonus, instead of rolling a die. That is against the basic tenant of much of gaming. More later, Vahktang

_MY_ wizard traveled with stuff. Had the platform (mentioned above) built with a lip so it wouldn't tilt off. Held all the party extra rations, extra arrows, firewood, pavilions (not just two man tents for us), etc, etc. And when we found 200 lbs of silver, we didn't have to leave it behind...

Well,sure, but then _the heroes_ could take advantage of -6 to wisdom. Big, world conquering (smart) bad guys wouldn't give them that advantage if they could help it, I feel. More later, Vahktang

That was always my understanding. The variable on a cure light wounds is not D8, it's D8+x. So an empowered cure light wounds would be (D8+5*1.5 = 9-19) And a maximized, empowed cure light wounds would be 19 points. But isn't that like a 9th level spell? Wouldn't there be a better use for the...

Thank you all. As I thought. But it is nice to be confirmed by such intelligent, erudite people. Who have a sense of humor. More later, Vahktang
