    AoO for Unanticipated Movement?

    Do so many people really think that being moved when its not your turn counts as 'moving'? The implication also means that if you are bull rushed, or telekinesised, or awesome blowed, or make a save against a wall spell, or whatever else that you also are subsequently denied your 5-foot step...

    Am I an unfair GM?

    You said you prefer a different style of play to being critical of each other, but then a few sentences later call someone a bad player? I think a few posts up you used the term 'idiocy'. Did I lose the plot? Also, you said the other players are fairly 'militant' and that they are always...

    Do you allow Bluff/Sense Motive (and others) between PCs?

    If a player has his character steal from his allies, then he deserves the same reprisal that any other thug would get if the PCs caught him stealing form them. In most games, that at the very least should mean getting the crap kicked out of him and having most of his stuff taken away, with the...

    AoO for Unanticipated Movement?

    I agree with Jeff. Frank's got the right idea, just the wrong mechanical explanation. Moving provokes AoOs, not BEING moved.

    Suggest a feat for a witch hunter

    Sorry for not being clear. I didn't really thin you were doing anything wrong. It just reminded me of some of the good ones I remember who were doing things wrong. Although I think its obvious metagame cheeze to try to play a spell-caster with 'anti-magic' feats. The mage hunter feats in...

    Am I an unfair GM?

    Knowlege:Arcana check to know the spell wouldnt work as he intended...before he cast the spell. Or you could have just told him "You dont know those guys are there, I expect you to act like it and do something else." Force cage is a good example of spells people don't often understand...

    Insightful strike as a feat

    It's still way too powerful for a basic feat...It should be capped. Basically as is, a warblade could take this and with a 1 lv dip in swordsage at level 6 end up adding 1.5xstrength +1x dex +2xint mod and have reach and combat expertise with a spiked chain. Total of 6 feats. Exotic...

    Suggest a feat for a witch hunter

    This reminds me of old times....back when people wanted to play 1E barbarians and then completely ignore the RP restriction that they hated all magic. Totally gloss over the fact that they'd rather use the wizards skull as an ashtray then sit down and eat dinner next to him. Or more recently...

    Insightful strike as a feat

    That's sorta my point....you can already manage to stack ability bonuses...So anything you want to do to get the ability another way should cost AT LEAST that much. So you take 3 levels of swashbuckler, and a level of swordsage...That drastically changes the nature of a person who wants the...

    Druid Wild Shape items nonfunctional?

    Ask your DM to let you spend some extra cash on some of your magic items so that they reshape to fit your forms when you wild shape. Wilding clasps already exist, so its not as if they meant for it to be impossible(just expensive). Or possibly research a spell that keeps some of your magic...

    Insightful strike as a feat

    completely bent as a feat. Since almost anyone interested in this feat would already have a high dex and weapon finesse, the prerequisites are basically invisible. Maybe if it REPLACED your strength modifier to damage, as WELL as specifically not stacking with abilities that add OTHER stats...

    Running a dragon encounter

    I've been in this encounter before....same scenario, except with a white dragon. Basically everyone on board was massacred and the PCs had to totally focus on saving their own lives by running away and leave most of the other NPCs to their fates. Fortunately, there was at least some land...

    Question about a Cleric and a Succubus?

    If it's established in your game world that creatures commonly do not match their inherent racial alignments then I can see something like this happening. If red dragons have saved villages from the ravages of tyrranical golds, and demons patrol the roads to keep travelers safe from the evil...

    Questions: Charging and obtaining True Strike

    If you already have a +4(I think) weapon, then you should already be in the mid level range... +4 weapon requires a 12th level crafter, or you'd need 32k gold to buy one. At that level you're probably better off with other mounted combat feats, or trying to abuse the Leap attack/combat brute...

    What should the CR of this Be? (Players or DMs of Epic Games)

    I don't much like the way this guy is laid out...He's like a giant tank with 9th level wizard spells. Round 1...quicked CoC, Time stop...Black tentacles around the casters, Force Cage the melee, Illusion of walls boxing in anyone left over, maybe even a Summoned ally in the midst of the...

    Defeating a Great Wyrm Force Dragon

    If he was a ranger 30/temptest 10 instead that could be interesting... 2 x dread bane(dragon) wounding speed scimitars, a belt of battle and the thousand cuts ability....How many attacks does that actually make?

    Defeating a Great Wyrm Force Dragon

    Whatever wealth and resources a 40th level group of PCs has...It should pale in comparison to the amount in comparison to a great wyrm dragon of CR 59. I've never played an epic game though, so I make a lot of assumptions. I also find it quite unlikely that a group of PCs would 'pick a...

    Monster and Practiced Spellcaster feat

    I think they technically qualify for it...but it's kinda a slippery slope depending on the monster. A lot of monsters are balanced on the strength of their spell casting abilities....especially mid level monsters with lots of HD but low caster levels. Especially dragons and demons. I think...

    Weapon damage scaling

    If I were a player and a DM gave NPCs one of these weapons and used it against us, I'd force the group to save them and retire my character and bring in a Psionic warrior with an exotic weapon prof....If the NPCs can do it so can the PCs....if not, you need a reason that can't be overcome by a...

    Defeating a Great Wyrm Force Dragon

    For that matter, how does a mage hit a touch AC of 36? Asking if a remotely normal group of lv 40s could beat one of these is like asking if a lv1 character could beat a CR20 monster. Notice how the only useful suggestions were broken orb spell, broken shivering touch, and broken ego...
