So, Mal, Incen... you're looking to play Final Fantasy X as an actual role-playing game is what you're saying?

In order to make leather armor you have to hunt and kill an animal with thick skin. The skin, filthy with gore, is soaked in water to clean it. Then it's pounded and scoured to remove any remaining flesh and fat. Then the hide is either coated with a caustic or allowed to rot for several...

You attack with your main hand weapon and do 2[W] for it, then you attack with the other and do 2[W] if you hit, then you attack with your main hand weapon... lather, rinse, repeat.

It has 1400 HP, what more do you want? Five characters hitting it with their most awesome powers and expending their action points won't even bloody it!

Once per encounter, one or the other, like Channel Divinity.

Of course, if the DM were doing his job, 121 Lich Vestiges (highest level minion I could find) wouldn't be bunched into the smallest possible space. However, 121 Lich Vestiges goes a little over the XP budge for even a level thirty encounter. So you'd be facing 121 Angel of Valor Legionnaires...

He gets +5 to his save because vgcats is awesome.

Hmm... I'm not sure what to do, there. Is it a play by post forum?

The whole second paragraph is me just making stuff up. You did notice that I said that leather would turn into a badger, yes?

Nice, loisel, very nice! Okay, put the gate 2 squares behind the dude and use the ram to include moving through the portal as one square of the push. Now anchor the portal to a ceiling, wall, or cliff face.

I think the solution to the problem of Int as a dumpstat is quite simple and easy: make Int give a bonus to Initiative, just like Dex does. Other than that, it just seems to be a matter of skills (far more are affected by Int than Dex) and feats (there are some that require decent intelligence...

Yeah, essentially, once you get to level 16 you stop finding regular old enchanted leather. You just find feyleather. Similarly, you start finding starleather at 26. If you wanted to make +4 leather... you can't! Because you have to infuse the material with magical energy, and regular...

Simple, make it an opposed check, Perception vs Nature.

As if to prove I have too much time on my hands, I've gone ahead and put all seven characters into an excel file. I'm not responsible for any inaccuracies except in Darjin, and even then I plead fatigue and simple error. Also, this file is nowhere NEAR printer friendly. Edit: Le sigh, and...

I remember a very memorable 2e fight against a five-headed hydra. Two third level fighters, third level bard, second/fourth level mage/thief, and a second/third level mage/cleric. The fighters (specialized) went up and walloped the big snakey bastard. The bard unleashed a magic missile. The...

Actually, weapon damage doesn't get bumped, either. They give an example of a 12 level paladin with a longsword and a power that does 2[W]. The total is 2d8+7, +2 from weapon focus, +3 from strength, and +2 from her magic weapon. So you don't add half your level to damage. You do get the 1/2...

So when a power or ability or what have you says "+ [stat] modifier" then they mean just the straight mod, before level, yes? And when it refers to the stat alone, then it's the stat mod + 1/2 level?

Do you gain an additional healing surge every other level? Under "gaining levels" in chapter one of the PHB, it says "Also, if you increased your Constitution score to an even number, increase your number of healing surges by one", which implies that your healing surges are more or less fixed...

I just went back through the thread, and we've got seven level thirty characters here. A dwarven fighter, a half-elf warlock, a human fighter/wizard, an elven rogue, a tiefling wizard, an elven cleric, and a dragonborn rogue. Time to see what some destiny-fulling combats look like, I think.
