    D&D 3.x What is the "physical" advantage of being a good aligned character? (3.0e or 3.5e)

    Different base stats for skills.

    Knowledge (Wisdom) just like Knowledge (Enterprise) -- trade -- and Knowledge (Governance) -- ruling, laws, etc. -- are based off Wis. The first one is due to the people who would commonly use it (clerics, druids) the second two is due to the fact that knowledge in these is not so much a...

    Sundering "Unarmed Weapons"

    That's a bad argument... the guy who took a Weapon Proficiency feat has also wasted a feat if his weapon is broken and he's killed. Also, the monk can get his hands regen'ed as the fighter can go replace his weapon. But no, no sundering... though called shots never hurt......... ciaran

    Monster ability adjustments

    Anyone else try to get Monster Ability Adjustments from their entries in the monster manuals? I have seen an official suggestion as to "subtract 10 from all the even scores" and "subtract 11 from all the odd ones"... doing this to the Bladeling from Monster Manual II gives me +2 Dex only...

    D&D 3.x v4: Challenge Ratings pdf (3.5 compatible)

    And epic spells? What prevents a Balor with wizard levels from getting feats as well? A higher caster level is integral to success as an epic caster, isn't it? ciaran

    D&D 3.x List of Problem 3.5e spells? Where?

    From an Efreet? Is that a house rule? No. I'm just playing his alignment. Also, look at rule 0. And the "standard" are you talking about... A) Anything said can be perverted B) Player characters don't know the concept of a Player's Handbook, much less the Spell section of it, or even English. I...

    Wondering the opinion of the board on this matter....

    Wait. For those of you using attack rolls to counter: why doesn't the spellcaster's own attack roll count in it? Doesn't his BAB explain SOME of his combat-savviness? I'm still thinking about the Balor: it's totally ridiculous to expect moving the guy's skill points around even though he's a...

    Wondering the opinion of the board on this matter....

    Uh, the 15th level fighter is standing around because he doesn't bother READYING an action. Concentration isn't broken, your tactics are. Think about this as a DM. You really want your Balors (or WORSE, your Dragons) losing their spells because of some steep Concentration check you're now...

    Grabbing Your Players' Attenion and Keeping It- How to do it?

    Change locations! Someplace less distracting? Also, my addition... if your players aren't interested, it's not that the players are total jerks, or that the DM needs more experience... usually it's a bit of both. Maybe find a DM and go play in a game yourself? ciaran

    How would you react to the 'ole bait and switch?

    I like the matrix and all, but the ole "and you wake up" or "this was all a dream" dream sequence just makes me mad. Think of something else! ciaran

    D&D 3.x List of Problem 3.5e spells? Where?

    Also, any DM worth his salt will make sure that any wish from an efreeti is NOT worth 1,000 or even 1,000,000 XP. I would *totally* grant the wish. My players would be smart enough never to ask. ciaran
