    Improving monsters...a little help?

    You should read the ImprovingMonster.rtf file of the 3.5 SRD, you get everything in there. Also, the info probably is in the Monster Manual (in the beginning)... that's where it was in the old MM (don't have 3.5) Slim

    Protection from getting stoned

    Freedom (level 9), Prismatic wall (level 8), protect from petrification. Apart from that... you're better off protecting yourself from the attack that actually causes the petrification (avoiding the gaze, resistance against magic, etc) Slim

    wall of stone, was: Will I survive?

    Wouldn't that be if the fireball exploded on the wrong side of the wall? I remember that a lightning bolt needs at least a 1'-square to pass through, don't know if that means anything... Slim

    wall of stone, was: Will I survive?

    Hm. The spell description says nothing about a dome. It talks about a ramp, a bridge, but not a hemisphere. This said, the description of the spell implies that if you want to do something else than a wall with it, you'll get a reduced area. So, I'd probably let it happen (a dome). As for the...

    Up close and personal with polearms

    I'd say it requires somewhat of an "exotic" feat, pretty much like for the spiked chain. The feat would probably be for all polearms. The mechanic, in my mind, would be that the wielder would grasp the polearm nearer to the blade or spike to make close quarters attacks. I would rule that in...

    Claws of the vampire

    Thanks. My answer would be: claw plus strength plus other bonuses(luck, morale... etc) Slim

    Would immunity to poison protect you from unbreathable air?

    Warning this post contributes in nothing to the topic at hand. ie Cow Farts. I think you'd burn (seriously), no? Slim

    general blueprint needed: a disarming mage

    Hm. You still have to guess which square to hit, right? Slim

    Would immunity to poison protect you from unbreathable air?

    But is there actual oxygen to breathe in, say, a "normal" cloud of poisonous gas? Slim

    Stat Method vs. How long you've played

    Rolling for stats is a real fun moment for me, and when I DM, I try to make sure that everyone's in the same range, so whatever method I'll use, the guy that got pityful stats gets to reroll / adjust. With 2e and a particularly killer DM, we decided that in order to survive, we needed better...

    Rapid Shot and haste

    OK I did the math again. I would seem that the less you have iterative attacks, the more beneficial Rapid shot is to you. The following tables represent the Expected average damage for a full round action (for an arrow that does an average of 4,5 points of damage when it hits). We have 2...

    Improved Trip maneuvers

    I wouldn't mind allowing it. Spending a feat on quickdraw to pull of this meneuvre is pretty much the same thing as spending a feat on Spiked Chain and not having to change weapons between the trip and the free attack. Hm. Is the melee touch attack that comes with casting a touch attack spell...

    Improved Trip maneuvers

    1: As Elvinis pointed out, the attack doesn't occur immediately after the trip attempt. IMO, it wouldn't work from 10' away (unless you had a reach weapon). 2: The spell is discharged with the melee touch needed to initiate the trip attempt, unless you cast Inflict on your right hand and trip...

    Dragon Disciple - a viable option?

    Has anyone played Dragon Disciples? How was it? What was your build? What would be an effective build (if that is at all possible)? To me, the PrC doesn't seem to offer much in terms of power (of course that's not all I'm interested in, but it's nice to hold your own in combat)... Thanks in...

    Avoiding AOO after being tripped

    Would that work, seriously? Would that be the way to get out of harm's way when prone? Slim

    Rapid Shot and haste

    Well I did do it for every chance of hitting (0% to 100%), but I didn't check with iterative attacks. I'd assume that there would be less of a difference the more attacks there were, since the extra rapid shot attack would represent a smaller portion of the attacks made... I guess I'll have to...
