    Silence Spell

    Hmmmm - So can someone cast silence on a coin glued to the bottom of a scroll tube and get a "cone of silence" effect - Or, once the tube is opened, "life of effect" is opened and the rest of the tube does not count as a "corner". How thick must a corner be to, er, be a corner? ~D

    D&D 3.x [3.0/3.5] GMW and Sunder

    A quick clarification needed: What is the "plus" in relation to a sunder attempt against a (for example): +1 flaming longsword with GMW +3 cast on it? a) +3 (only GMW) b) +4 (still flaming and +3 GMW) c) +2 (no benefit for GMW) d) +5 (everything stacks! go monty!) (GMW=greater magic weapon)...

    [DnD 3.0] Need to create Ash from Evil Dead

    I am getting ready to play in a 3.0E D&D game - where the world is taken over by undead. Here is the character concept: "Ash was once a happy, (almost) normal guy who had a good job at S-Mart (Housewares) and a pretty girlfriend. But all that changed when he and his girlfriend decided to visit...

    [3.0] Need help creating a fighter of undead

    Thanks Zogg! Had the conversation with the DM - because of particulars, I will not be able to go undead as a PC. Too bad for me. So... When I get something fleshed out, I'll post the options and tradeoffs here. ~D

    [3.0] Need help creating a fighter of undead

    reaper - I like it - better than the foe hunter - but would want to understand any special resistances. That said, as cool as it is, the point may be moot due to being restricted to the aforementioned books. Yep - I had come to this same conclusion. I am really leaning toward some...

    [3.0] Need help creating a fighter of undead

    True. True. Based on the wording, I suppose I must agree. "Juju Zombie" Yeah......... Well, it seems, in this world, the higher level undead (the "bad guys") have the ability to control the lower level undead ("me" - in this case). So - thanks, but I'll keep looking for a career. ~D

    [3.0] Need help creating a fighter of undead

    Found on the web Is this it? (...Travelling w/out books); Seems pretty good - nice flavor. I really like the "always on" nature of the foe hunter's bonus. But, with the right scores (CHA), tactics and feats, one should be able to apply the +6d6 on a fairly regular basis (assuming a few...

    [3.0] Need help creating a fighter of undead

    From the (3.0) SRD It is not clear to me that it protects agains "touch" attacks; However, what other attacks do incorp. creatures have? duh. Any other opinions? References? Exactly. Druids are awesome, but I am not sure I would be optimized in this world/party. You are right - Not a joke...

    [3.0] Need help creating a fighter of undead

    So now I am thinking: Derro Paladin/Forsaker or fighter/forsaker -or- Ghoul Foe Hunter-Ranger (what is the ECL? Can you have a foe of your own type?) If you don't have access to turning, what is the best "fighter-type" to combat undead and keep them off your spell casters? ~D

    [3.0] Need help creating a fighter of undead

    Well, as reapersaurus said, "The Hunter of the Dead PrC is a joke." I tend to agree. I liked to forsaker due to the high fort saves. I suppose I can boost the SR if I throw away a few levels on drow or duergar. The problem is a gaggle of shadows or a high level vampire or two, and it does...

    [3.0] Need help creating a fighter of undead

    Thanks for the input - I can't confirm, but I get the feeling that turning either does not work in this world or has been "nerfed" in some way (something to do with the Sun being "eaten" I suppose). Additionally, I would rather take the risk and mash as many foes as possible before dying...

    [3.0] Need help creating a fighter of undead

    Class: Primary-Fighter-Type (already a cleric and sorcerer in party) Level: 12 Ability Scores: 28 point buy (or thereabouts) Magic: No stated restriction Campaign: Likely a "one-off" Books Allowed: Core, Splat and Savage Species (no outer planar); No Psionics Edition: 3.0 Background: World taken...

    Meta-magic Feats

    Ah hah! I knew it! *writes a nasty, er, clarifying, letter to former DM" ...That said could the sorc use Arcane Prep in the manner above? Thx, ~D

    Meta-magic Feats

    Along this same thread - A quick clarification re: Arcane Preparation feat (dont have the books with me): 1. A sorcerer could prepare a silenced fireball at the start of the day. 2. Then after a battle (perhaps where he used his meta'ed fireball), could said sorcerer then spent a modicum of...

    Revenge from a DM (Help me create a PC for City of the Spider Queen)

    I would reiterate ruleslawyer's point: go for a turning/healing dude. Additionally, it may be just me, but I never leave home without boots of flying. ~D

    True Strike while grappled?

    TS vs Swallow Whole? This got me thinking: Assuming you are facing a nasty creature that can swallow whole, say, your friendly neighborhood lucent worm: turn 1: "that's a funny looking purple worm..." you use your stone turn 2: worm charges and hits, you fail against its...

    Running night-time combat

    My take (sorry for the long post) ENVIRONMENT Uneven terrain (rocky hills); Total Darkness (overcast no moon) (ouch. worst case scenario; you evil, evil, DM.); PRE-COMBAT Rogue hides (or is this assuming too much) and stations himself on watch (centrally? off to one side? the same side as...
