    Highest possible ratio of caster level to effective char level?

    You know what they say when they cast blasphemy? "Evil will always triumph.. because good is dumb" :cool:

    Occult Slayer & Spell Turning.

    As someone who was considering an occult slayer, I don't think they were incredibly overpowered. For one, Spell Turning can turn epic spells. Epic spells count as level 10, which is well within the ken of that spell. Also, you can't turn disentigrate because you can't turn rays. Yes its a...

    Protecting against Blasphemy

    He mentioned that the entire group was paralyzed by the Blasphemy meaning that the cambrion cast it as a caster at least 5 levels higher than the group. Since they were all paralyzed, I imagine it was just a matter of the demon performing a coup de grace on each party member. That, and his...

    CR of a permanently polymorphed dragon

    No, you lose (su) and (ex) abilities that are dependent on certain parts of your anatomy that you no longer have. A beholder loses his eye rays if he polymorphs into a human; a snake loses its ability to constrict likewise, the dragon wouldn't have his breath weapon or natural attacks. Come to...

    stun and paralysis

    Yes, actually one of the few spells I've seen that I asked my DM to allow me to add to my cleric spell list.

    Monsters of Rock (New Challenge)!

    Edgecrusher by Fear Factory. For some reason, I just see a big, badass war-machine construct bearing down on some hapless peasants while some deranged priest sits on top screaming break of the.... edgecrusher, break of the.... edgecrusher!!!!

    Karmic Strike: Undefeatable.......?

    One class I remember from FR was the runescarred berserker. One of my players was going to play one, until I found out it was basically a barbarian that could scribe one-shot heals and antimagic auras onto himself. But then, I always hear that FR adventures are hardcore, so the PC classes and...

    Need Help Building a Fighter/Mage

    We've got a char in our group right now who's done the same, but gone sorc/barb/eldrich knight. For fighter-mages, since you have a lot of stats you need high, he took a lot of personal buff spells (stoneskin, heroism, bull's str, and the ultimate, tensor's transformation), and de-buff spells...

    The Mighty Bow... sort of...

    From the srd: only piercing and slashing weapons can bee keen. A longbow is a piercing weapon with a crit range of 20. If you make it keen (which you can, because it's piercing), it deals 1d8 and crits on a 19-20. The listing for the longbow assumes you're using it to shoot arrows.

    Fee Fi Fo Fum, a Fire Giant I've become!!!

    That doesn't seem ridiculously overpowered for a 4th level spell. After all, enlarge person increases your gear, so we're essentially saying that polymorph can enlarge you and give better str, con, and nat armor bonuses than enlarge person, which is fine seeing as how it's higher level. I can...

    CR on a trap

    Well, turns out there was a DC on the plane shift, a DC 27 will save, which our Dwarven Defender made on the nose, so luckily, he's just a perma-wished lemure now. Looks like my cleric will have to take it on the nose and Miracle him out of it (the 5000 exp casting of course). Actually, I...

    D&D 3.x 3.5E Deepwood Sniper??

    It's abilities, as I recall, would carry over over fairly easily into 3.5, except one of it's abilities was to subtract 10% from concealment every 3 levels. You could change that to bonuses vs. cover and eventually into improved precise shot. Just keep in mind that some spells *cough*Hunter's...

    Fee Fi Fo Fum, a Fire Giant I've become!!!

    So when you polymorph (or by extension, shapechange) into anything other than a medium-sized, humanoid creature, all your gear becomes nonfunctional? I mean, a stone giant couldn't wear anything designed to fit a humanoid. Or does the 'resizing' bit about magic items come into play there?

    stun and paralysis

    We've discussed this in my group. Stunning is negated by: 1.)Heal 2.)Freedom 3.)Some spell from the minatures handbook which I can't Remember, but it removes all negative status effects.

    Splatbooks to Beware of?

    Doesn't the -10 once per day only apply to creatures w/equal or less hd than the caster though? So that would disqualify a lot of creatures like dragons or Undead which have HD greater than CR. Of the complete arcane, the class we (my group) liked least was the green star adept. Unless you...

    I'll tear your soul apart - Themed Summoners.....

    That's actually a cool idea. If I remember hellraiser correctly, a cenobite template could be served well by something like this: DR 3-/6-/9- (by HD, like fiendish or celestial) because the they enjoy pain Similar to how pseudonatural has True Strike, give them either: a) Fear spell-like...

    I'll tear your soul apart - Themed Summoners.....

    Well, if I recall, all the demons in hellraiser were vaugly humanoid, and I can see why Kyton reminds you of pinhead, what with his chains. If you're going to run with this themed summon, I might substitute a humanoid with class levels similar to a CR of a creature already on the list. So if...

    CR on a trap

    Still playing our friendly old Nights Below 3.5 conversion, and seeing as how one of our characters just got #*U()&#&$*ed, thought I'd pose this question to the board. What is the CR for a trap that a) Casts Wish upon the victim to permanently transform them into a Lemure, and then Gates them...

    Favorite Race And/Or Template?

    No, there are some PRC's that culminate by adding a template w/o the level adjustment (it's assumed that the benefits of the template are taken into account in the overall power lvl of the PrC. For instance, Dragon Disciple level 10 applies the half-dragon template, but the character isn't...
