My DM treats stunts as being about equal to what you could get from an at will power. The first time they try something new then give them the advantage, if they abuse an idea then make modifications. If what they try to do has more effect then an at will then they should get penalties as well...

You can have a lot of fun as a duo, as long as your characters work well together you can be very effective. If you can cover the bases, able to heal, able to do damage, able to spot and disarm traps/locks. Just make sure both of you have a way to get the other up if they fall down. As long as...

Hmm, i would not risk a guess on MitD's AC, it does not seem to be actively trying to defend itself so could well be flat footed. With that in mind i would also put my money on high DR. So from the info supplied i would either go for a pseudonatual solar or my first choice... An abomination...

To echo what others have said, i would definately run your idea past the DM first, otherwise you run the risk of alienating them and possibly the other players. I agree with On Puget Sound as to how they might react, here are a couple of possible responses: Run away to get reinforcements and...

You could try spectral hand and then use touch of idiocy(no save) on the main spellcasters. Might be lucky and lower it enough so they cant use high level spells. Not sure if it would work but you could try shatter to potentially destroy their potions.

I tried something in a recent gaming session that might work well for you and i think rogurrouge already mentioned it. Lesser Planer Ally to call a hound archon, this gives you several options. Cast a mage armour on it and with its damage reduction you have a good tank to help on the front...

I would go for limited selection as well, consider how long it takes to make stuff and what it costs and who can make it. Large cities would have adventurer shops stocking useful items but not many, there might be a network of traders that would communicate with each other and so know where...

The only reason someone saved him was that in this attack all the minions were represented with mini dime bars. Hence everyone using there area effect dailies against the swarm rather then the tougher kobolds, Aran got to test his new lightning dagger which proved great for harvesting chocy goodness

Hello all, my paladin character is probably about to encounter some demon types which got me wondering about the following: What subtype is the warhorse? I am guessing that from the description that is does not have the [celestial] template (and is instead seen as a [magical beast] and not an...

The con artist could say he was playing with some magic cards (deck of many things) and drew the throne card. Alternately he could just be one person in a large organisation so if he is uncovered the party might end up on the hit list of a very large guild with lots of diplomatic ties.

This is Aran's Tavern Tale (Tale 4) which he told upon arriving at Fallcrest The Blueflame Orb was packed to the rafters and the owner Par Breenan was rushed off his feet trying to serve the buoyant crowd. He did not mind as it was indeed a joyous occasion, for working at his side wearing an...

Assuming it was not just a 5ft step; the movement after the failed casting should provoke an Opportunity attack, this i would judge is seperate from the Opportunity attack you would get if the target had not cast defencively. However from your description they might be using their version as a...

Well ive finally finished reading OotS and can now give my opinion on V's actions.... Epic Evil, with a good dose of stupid. I cant see Tiamat taking kindly to someone doing that to her children, i suspect the oracle will be passing on a few messages at the very least. If V had done this in...

Evil temples could try to cut corners... Dress someone up and get them to pose then flesh to stone them.

I was worried how the two Halflings would get on as Ryam seemed the serious type, luckily with this fight they worked together and Team Halfling was formed. As a side note i found the wight drain effect to be nasty, i think i was out of surges at the end of that fight which could have got bad if...

Our last gaming weekend (about 40 roleplayers) had a definate winner with board games. The FFG Battlestar Galactica game was very popular and at times we had two games going at once, works best with 6 players but seemed interesting involving for everyone not just on their turn.

Easiest way is to keep the XP the same, one thing you could try would be that instead of 'auto' level up they have to train. You could end up with two linked parties (therefore both would be balanced) one which trains and guards the base while the other adventures. Several openings for plot...

Not sure if this is what you want but one of the best games of all time (imo) was Star Control 2. It is very old but has been redone by fans who have upgraded the graphics, added voice to all text and made it compatable with modern operating systems. The Ur-Quan Masters - News BTW you can...

A very enjoyable read Nebulous, the use of pictures helped to visualize it and if was interesting to see how your group reacted to different situations. My group just finished it ourselves (Matthew Freeman's story hour) and it seems that the main hero is... Splug, seriously i think WotC did good...

When my party fought against her she definately teleported around, the only way to stand a chance is to catch her in a confined space. Has the party thought of the rope trick themselves or are you planning on feeding them this idea? If they do the rope trick then then Ashunna will spot the...
