    Need some ideas for low level characters to instantaneously travel long distances...

    Wait, you mean your last character was a psion telepath? Or your new one? I dont understand how a new character will be able to know where the other half of the party is to satisfy teleport's requirements. Also, Has your Dm already said that your new char will insta-showup with the other half...

    Need some ideas for low level characters to instantaneously travel long distances...

    You must have some clear idea of the location and layout of the destination. The clearer your mental image, the more likely the teleportation works. Areas of strong physical or magical energy may make teleportation more hazardous or even impossible. Any DM would probalby say that, No, your...

    Need some ideas for low level characters to instantaneously travel long distances...

    If your session is taken up exclusively by only half of the group in combat, thats just bad DM'ing. No one wants to sit around doing nothing, especially for a whole session. And anyway, what kind of combat takes that long! maybe the part of the group in combat should just retreat to the half of...

    Cartography Skill?

    Profession doesnt seem to be a real good fit for this. While it might be good for synergy bonuses, it seems like a relevant skill for Making a Map would be craft: mapmaking with synergy bonuses for prof: cartographer, survival (Really its like surveying), and probably knowledge: nature for...

    Is Mystic Theurge a balanced P. class?

    So, i've a cleric lvl 3 and was thinking about going for wiz + mystic theuge, but my DM and at least one other player consider this prestige class to be excessively twinkish. Our party has no wizard and this probably won't change. its rogue , barb, monk, ranger, palad, and cleric(me). Is a...

    Use of a Wish spell

    The way you describe it, it sounds like the best thing to do would be to hold onto the wish as a trump card. ie, "Oh no's i'm the last one left alive, wish us all back to our last safe campsite!" How you get the PC to do that is another matter. The wish won't get the hammer immediately, anything...

    Skill checks and Aid Another

    We did something like this in my group once, the paladin had to "seduce" a demon-possessed/transformed/something lady to get her un-demonized, and we all gave him tips on stuff to do(with us all giving tips it was like an extra +10). Stuff like, naughty things to say in abyssal, rope use to make...

    Skill checks and Aid Another

    Probably because he has such a fundamental understanding of magic, that he can figure out the effect of the spell, he might not know its called "KarinsDads Flashing Pop-Crackle Summon-o-Matic!" but he knows whats going to happen. form the V/S components.

    Skill checks and Aid Another

    I would say Hide could benefit from Aid Another. Someone can help you hide, like putting a branch over your head, or saying "hey your foot is sticking out", etc. Also, Why couldnt you aid another with crafting?

    That would indeed be a mightly powerful item. I've not seen anything anywhere for that, um, although I want to say there might be soemthing in the lords of madness book with the abberation feats, but I dont have it with me right now to look.

    Treasure & Magic Items

    In a game I'm playing in now, the DM regulates the pc's wealth very strictly, every few levels we have a "reset" so to speak, where we figure out our gear to be exactly or really close to the DMG chart. Its a pain in some respects in that we'll usually give up potions that we hadn't used to get...

    Deathbringer's CR17 - merited?

    If i dont understand gdm properly, correct me but, couldnt you have counterspelled one of the flamestrikes ? It seems like possibly a better tactic would have been to hit and run with the negative energy burst, trying to keep the warriors out of reach and counterspelling anything thrown at it...

    What would casting Grease on a swarm do?

    Shoot, unless I'm missing something, it seems like you could do the silly thing of even tripping one. "Aha, its on its back! oh no's, the fell on the rogue! Quick quick, untrip, untrip!"

    Deathbringer's CR17 - merited?

    I don't have my MM2 with me but, does it have any DR ? Even if it didnt' , i could see a valid tactic as gdm the lead warriors weapon and then trying to sunder it, assuming it does decent enough damage to destroy your standard sword-type weapon in a full attack. Also it could have used gdm to...
