    I need to give "dap" to the CD2 team

    I'm very glad that you're enjoying the adventure so much. Props to all ENworlders who made it into a very diverse, suspenseful, and challenging module. We are currently in the final editing stages of CD3, so expect it soon !

    Rules of the Game: Making Magic Items

    I wasn't aware of the x2500. Can you give an example ?

    What's the point of Exotic Weapon Master?

    Which begs fo the following question: would a race that considers a given exotic weapon a martial weapon be barred from taking the Exotic Weapon Master PrC ? :p Kidding aside, I totally agree. The only time I see this PrC picked by a PC is when he fights with a spiked chain and only takes one...

    Rules of the Game: Making Magic Items

    Another thing... Is it just me, or is a ring of AC +5 more useful than an amulet of natural armor +5 ? The ring is ALWAYS in your AC whatever the circumstances, but the amulet doesn't work against touch attacks and incorporeal attacks. The amulet should cost less, or the ring more, or...

    ROFL ! Yeah... that would work also.

    Rules of the Game: Making Magic Items

    You have an excellent point. A complimentary bonus should cost more. Your formula is wrong though... it's not x2500, but x2000. Ring +5: 5x5x2000=50000. Thus, a ring that enhances your to-hit by, say, +5 (to remain in the non-epic scale), should be bonus squared x 4000 (twice as much as a...

    [Magic item] Sorceror's Hand?

    I don't know about it, but if no one can find it, I feel that's a pretty minor item. The formula for a magic weapon is bonus squared x 2000. Given that it doesn't boost damage, only to hit, I'd price it at bonus squared x 1000. Craft Wondrous Item, takes up the glove slot, true strike, caster...

    Rules of the Game: Making Magic Items

    There has been some discussion about that 7 part article, but I feel that we could have discussed it much more, given that it pertains to a very important but quirky aspect of the game. http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20050118a The one thing that has got me thinking is the...

    Improved monk attack

    It's not: You skipped a word there, that totally changes the meaning of my phrase. Really, I am quite content that someone would not accept INW in their campaign. Some have been debating that the RULES preclude it. I said that they don't. In the end, as long as your game is fun, that's all...

    Where are all the good TANK fighter PrC's??

    I would also say that the Barbarian is close to the perfect Tank. d12 hp, constitution boosting rage, damage reduction... hard to beat. Epic-wise, a fighter is the best damage taking option. If you pile up on the damage reduction feat, you can soon shrug off many attacks. By 30th level, the...

    Improved monk attack

    *lurking back...* Oh... hum... yes. There's that. Huh... yyeeeess... maybe, but... Hum... I don't care in this case. He's wrong I'm right. Nah.

    Improved monk attack

    Still, why can't you admit my interpretation might be the right one ? I've made my case, half the peeps in this thread agree (Hyp and Darkness might be mods, it doesn't make their opinion more solid than any other well spoken rules lawyer :p). Basically, any take you choose is an house rule at...

    [META]Alright! Take it outside!

    Which part ? D&D or Santa ?

    [META]Alright! Take it outside!

    Which is a bad idea. If you go there only when you need to randomly bash something, you won't enjoy your experience. I personally go there when I want to talk about something else than D&D, that's all. There IS life outside of D&D people. And Santa doesn't exist. :p

    Omniscient Gods annoy me. (Long)

    Alas, I also recall such a thing, but in a very vague way. What one COULD do... Remember in the Star Wars books ? The emperor's essence linguered near Endor. You could say that when a god is destroyed, shards of him remain where he was slain, so a band of powerful epic evil dudes could go to...

    Improved monk attack

    Well, they DO support my opinion on this ruling, so even if they do indeed have a less than stellar reputation, I obviously think that they ruled right this time. It's a desperate man who denies even a ruling that comes from the makers of the game. :D

    Improved monk attack

    Well, that certainly validates my take on the situation. Thanks. :D

    Is this a cheese? Draconic feats from Complete Arcane

    I don't beleive this is so. It might need clarification by WotC, but I feel the intent is that as long as you keep casting each round, you're aloft, or otherwise the feat would be much less of use (considering that it takes TWO feats to get there, one of which MUST be taken at 1st level). I...

    Is this a cheese? Draconic feats from Complete Arcane

    I'm currently playing a sorceror with that feat. Oh yes, it is quite good. Things to consider: -You don't always have an active fly spell on you. A random encounter while trekking for days for example. -As long as you cast a spell every round, you stay in the air. Some times, if the fight...

    Improved monk attack

    Unless the mighty wizard that lives by the sea claims otherwise, there is nothing in the rules that prevents a Monk from taking the feat. Intent. When someone tries to clear something up, one must consider intent. It what's seperates rules-lawyers from good refereeing GM's. We have two hints...
