    Help with an Archer build that doesn't suck...

    Well here's some gear ideas. Bow of True Arrows: 4000gp. +1 mighty comp longbow that adds Truestrike to every arrow fired. Its found in Sword and Fist Bow of the Wintermoon is nice too. Found in MIC pg 48 Scout is a good class. Good bonus damage from skirmish. Also look at...

    Trying to motivate myself about planes

    Why not make the home base on the material plane but their adventures take them all over the different planes. They can be simple things like go get this item or complex things like political espionage. Get a copy of the Planar Handbook, Manual of the Planes, Fiendish Codex 1 and 2 and do...

    D&D 3.x Top 20 most broken character builds 3.5

    I'd say for a good DM nope. I can give examples of an "imbalanced" party member and not even give him a class. I can "imbalance" a party with an average stat score of 11 if everyone else has an average of 15 or vice versa and I haven't even picked a class yet. I'm either going to hinder them...

    D&D 3.x Top 20 most broken character builds 3.5

    Broken builds? I'm probably going to be about the only one with this point of view but a build is never broken. Even the example of the three wish thing isn't broken. Any good DM will nerf wishes and look exactly at what the player is asking and usually thwart even the craftiest of players so...

    D&D 3.x AD&D vs 3e?

    While I've only ever played AD&D 2e and 3.x editions I've seen good and bad things about both. AD&D: Campaign settings were abundant from TSR. While its great to create your own world its time consuming and having a pre generated world for you is very nice. So this could easily give the...

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Rapid Shot and two-weapon fighting

    I think maybe I wasn't clear on my last post. I was using the quiver to demonstrate a certain magical effect. Since this magic effect is to create an arrow upon a certain activity being performed, in the case of the quiver an "arrow being pulled from it", what the quiver is effectively doing...

    D&D 3.x Severing limbs in combat - 3.0 & 3.5

    If you want a good premade system for doing severed limbs and whatnot and called shots and all the stuff this discussion is talking about I have a great answer. Torn Asunder: Critical Hits by Steven Creech and Kevin Ruesch. It was published by Bastion Press in 2003 using 3.0 rules. Its...

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Rapid Shot and two-weapon fighting

    For some reason I'm thinking there is a magic quiver that automatically produces arrows for its user whenever they reach for one. Maybe this is from a prestige class? If anyone knows what I'm talking about please point it out. But an alternative if you can pull off all the feats and the...

    D&D 3.x Level Adjustments and Balance in a Solo 3.5 Game

    Also I could have sworn half dragons got their HD boosted by one..d6 increases to d8 for all levels. So that should help out with 2 extra HP/level for some survivability. Also I thought they got a +4 to NA. Assuming he has an 18 in DEX that means he's gettinga +2 bonus from armor? Whats he...

    3.0 Druid Help

    In many of the D&D supplements there are a type of feat called "wild" feats almost specifically designed for druids and their wild shape abiity. They are scattered among a lot of books but I would definetly look into those. I know there's one that lets you cast spells in animal form (it might...

    LA Question

    My two cents worth on it is a +2 and here's why. Based on some of the rules in Savage Species and some of the builds there any regen is almost always a +1 on its own. Then you have a second set of stats that get altered so that is another +1. Just my two cents. My best advice is to ask...

    D&D 3.x [3.5, Tome of Battle] Need Balance & Build Advice on Swordsage

    You don't have to dip into Warblade for the Dragon Heart discipline. You have access to it from the Swordsage along with: Desert Wind, Diamond Mind, Setting Sun, Shadow Hand, and Tiger Claw. So knock yourself (and your foes)out with some Mountain Strikes!

    D&D 3.x [3.5, Tome of Battle] Need Balance & Build Advice on Swordsage

    Well its partly reverse engineering to a degree. At least that's where you start. So you want Time Stands Still (who doesn't...lol) Ok so you need 4 manuevers from Diamond Mind. So pick 4 that you really want to have when your character is completed. Lets say you want Ruby NIghtmare blade...

    Stinky Feats

    Toughness is horrible on its own, but with feats to burn Roll With It from Savage Species becomes a decent reason to take it. DR 2/- and it stacks with itself. So if a fighter has some extra feats to burn its an easy way to get some decent DR.

    Stinky Feats

    It might take some digging and some research but my DM used to have what we call "The Green Book" of feats. It was some file he found online (lord only knows where) that had just about every feat for a d20 game on the books and we used it for boosting our fighters a great deal. But its got...

    D&D 3.x [3.5, Tome of Battle] Need Balance & Build Advice on Swordsage

    A few years ago I played a Warblade (not quite the same but he was a beast in battle). With as many manuevers and stances as you get by the time you are 20th level, don't worry too much about specializing. I tracked my path and was able to "specialize" in 2 different and still almost...

    D&D 3.x Designing 8th-level character [3.5]

    I'm not sure what class would be best for this, but slap the Half Celestial Template from Monster Manual 1 on your guy and for the +1 CR he gets all kinds of bonuses. I'm gonna assume that is a core book. Granted you only get 6 levels of a class but i'd give up one level of anything to get...

    D&D 3.x Help me build this character in 3.5

    Not sure how much healing you want your character to have but the prestige class Radiant Servant of Pelor from Complete Divine will give you some nice healing buffs and meets most of the other requirements. Another idea is the PC monster class Ghaele from Savage Species. While the skills...

    Help me kill my party

    Before I suggest anything, I'd like to think that should the rest of your party do something "chaotic stupid" like attack the queen while giving a speech, your DM would send in the guards which would include the queens man at arms (probably around a 15th level fighter) to stop the assassination...
