    Readied Actions

    About "counterspelling" with Silence... Is the opposing caster screwed, or can he move (if he hasn't taken his move action yet) and then cast? Since the readied action takes place before the action that triggers it, I guess that'd be possible, right? Slim

    How many spells/scroll?

    Let's say that a scroll with multiple spells on it is considered a single item in terms of Magic Item Creation (per LokiDR) and that the scriber of the scroll need not have the spell memorized, but that another caster can provide said spell (per Hypersmurf). As an exercise (albeit a very silly...

    How many spells/scroll?

    I was talking about the other way around. One scriber, and a bunch of people who provide the CLW's. You have the master cleric with the Scribe Scroll feat, and all his followers provide him with the spell... Slim

    D&D 3e & 3.5e Is Not Really An RPG

    no problem... as for post count, I just realized I'd be on cool page 7 if I hadn't switched nicks twice... Blockader: Some people do tend to "cry troll" a little too early, I'll admit it. As for your initial hypothesis, as someone said, the three core books are moslty rules and do not contain...

    How to tell if it is time to leave

    The problem seems to be more with the game that you're playing than anything else. Why not give a go at DMing and trying to run a game like you'd like to play? Nothing's better than setting the example! Slim

    criticals-is 19-20/x3 better than 18-20/x2?

    Think of it as an area: You start out with a 1 inch². If you widen the square by 1 inch, you get 2 inches² (1X2). If you lengthen the square by 1 inch, you also get 2 inches² (2X1). If you widen AND lenghten the square, you now have 4 inches² :) Slim

    How many spells/scroll?

    I'm sorry, but IMO, the specific rules of Scroll Scribing override the general rules of magic item creation. That's why i think LokiDR's quote means that the caster who scribes the scroll has to be the one that has memorized the spell. Your Shield of Faith example is, IMO, quite silly. How...

    How many spells/scroll?

    Sorry, don't own 3.5... is the table you speak of the "treasure" table? I know you can find a scroll with multiple spells on it. This, for me, doesn't necessarily confirm that such items may be created. What I mean is why didn't they simply state, in the Magic Item Creation section, Scribing...

    How would you use a Spiked Helm?

    For headbutts, treating it like spiked armor is fine. If the player wants to charge foes to skewer them in the abdomen, you could give it double damage on the charge, but the charge will provoke AoO's (since the dwarf is looking at the floor). Slim

    Darkness + natural sunlight + vampires = ?

    Stop making my brain explode please. It's funny to imagine that Darkness doesn't create shadow, or darkness, or whatever, but simply a peculiar lighting condition. Slim

    criticals-is 19-20/x3 better than 18-20/x2?

    A crit of 19-20/X3 IS better than 18-20/X2. The difference is not big, though... a mere 4% extra damage per hit. As to why the kukri is 18-20 and not X3, my guess is that they assumed that a curved weapon (scimitar, falchion) will have more chances of getting a crit, I guess, even though the...
