    Item saving throws

    A line in the description of the spell disjunction says the following: "An item in a creature’s possession uses its own Will save bonus or its possessor’s Will save bonus, whichever is higher." In what book do you find items' saving throws? I don't have access to any of my books, so I...

    Bad House Rules

    I've made a lousy house rule every now and then, mostly because I like to tinker with the rules. Most work very well, but i've thrown out a clunker. My worst, by far, was... you could trade 12 skill points for a feat or vice versa. You could also save up skill points to buy feats later on...

    Ever gotten 'emotional' over a game event?

    wow Dude, you must role-play way better than I could ever dream of! My usual performces of a situations like that would usually end in mockery by my players, which would completely justified considering my acting skills! So, to answer your question, definately not, though I think it pretty...

    Advice on handling a large, hostile army

    Howdy all, I'm an experienced DM, but I'm going to be dealing with a situation that I'm never dealt with before and would love to get some advice from DM"s who have had to deal with similar situations. To summarize, I have a party of 13-16th level charcaters (VERY powerful 13th-16th level...

    New Homebrew... Thoughts?

    Sounds fun. I like the epic scope of the campaign. My advice would to get one of the scrolls whose alignment corresponds to the party's alignment in the hands of theplayers. I would make this a chance encounter to increase the "fate" factor involved. The best way I think is that the PC's see...

    Tips and experience running a city campaign

    Great advice above...but here's one more: Always write down NPC's: what they do a dominant characteristic about them how that NPC interracted with the PC's. I use index cards for this info and keep it in alphabetical order. I guarantee that info will be useful later on. I also tend to...

    does anyone think sunder is too easy?

    Just for all the evil DM's out there: A frost giant with the sunder feat and an antimagic field around them goes together VERY well. I just tried it out two weeks ago. Oh, the misery! :eek:

    A question about magic item creation?

    And that's why I posted here. I figured the good people here had more experience with this kind of request, as my own is virtually nil. I'll give you a ruling one way or another soon, and then I'm going to kick your butt for making me think so hard about the stupid things. :mad: <--- You...

    A question about magic item creation?

    You're right Saeviomagy, it is perfectly legal. I didn't/forgot to mention that we don't allow the epic level handbook(because I don't have access to it) in to the campaign and he was trying to bring in a feat from a banned book. That why I thought it was funny. My players are always pushing...

    A question about magic item creation?

    I'd like to introduce Azzadar Kasul .. an evoker/red wizard of undisputable power and a blatant munc...ooops...min/maxer of the first order. He really is one of my favorites. He cracks me up to no end with this stuff.

    A question about magic item creation?

    As a response to Saeviomagy - it really is a matter of game style. Some players want powerful characters and they make the numbers match the concept. Some players focus in on a charcater concept and try to make the numbers match that. Most of my players are of the first school. I am of the...

    A question about magic item creation?

    Actually, based on the number everyone is throwing around, the PC's never have that kind of resources available to them in the first place. My style as a dm is to never really say "no" to the players, but to let them have something they want as a goal for the future. I feel the same way about...

    A question about magic item creation?

    thanks for all of the great replies and input. I need to do a thorough review of eveything that has been said. The campaign is high magic and high powered, since most of my players are munchkins. I don't really mind though. THey usually just crack me up with the ridiculous things they try...

    A question about magic item creation?

    Hi all. A player of mine is a very high level caster (Nearly epic) and wants to create two unbelivably high-powered magic items during the "down time" our gaming group is going to soon have. I'm having trouble determining what the price and other requirements to make something akin to...
