Thanks ! How do you get there from ENW main page ?

I've been trying to get to Claudio Pozas site today to no avail. Through ENworld, through Klaus' signature, through Google, nothing. Am I missing something or did something Go Awfully Wrong ? I've been using his awesome pics to illustrate NPC's IMC for years now.

Incidentally, the flames at DA tend to be low nowadays. People get to know each other, and flaming for the sake of flaming has been done to death. We're one happy disfunctional family ! :D

I don't understand where the confusion lies. It's right there in the Player's Handbook, p. 41, Monk: It doesn't outright say that they are natural weapons, but the intent is quite clear that whenever in doubt, the monk chooses if he should be considered as a natural weapon or manufactured...

Rules of the Game, Magic Items, Part 7: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20050118a That's what we do in our campaigns. Whoever benefits from the item pays the full XP and gp cost.

Those 3 spells have different effects (one makes you appear where you're not, one makes you disappear from time to time, one creates many images of you), so I would say yes. NOW... It could be argued that the images themselves aren't affected by the displacement, I don't know about that.

I really like it. What I've found with the complete books, is that with any character I create I end up picking stuff for him from at least two different Complete books. I don't regret buying any one of them. For me, the complete series was a very good thing WotC made. Sure, there are some...

I remember back in the days I was doing Aikido and Kobudo, we practiced doing rolls while weilding a boken (wooden katana) with two hands, in effect using our forearms and shoulders. If it's possible in real life, it's certainly possible in D&D. :D

If you see your friend frozen in place, it's your right as a caster to assume that it is magical. You don't need to know the exact spell that is in effect to dispel it, you can just dispel whatever might be causing the paralysis, targeting whatever magical effect is paralysing your friend, if it...

The Complete Divine has an alternate way of using turning undead: 30' burst, 1d6 damage per cleric level, will save DC=10+cleric level+Cha mod. Add Extra Turning, Empower Turning, and Quicken Turning, and you've got yourself the most powerful undead slayer possible. Basically, your 20th level...

Mmm... what do you think about the various Orb spells from CA ? No save, AND no SR. Which means, they are the perfect golem beater.

And empowered means 3d6+50% ? Meaning from 4 to 27 dex damage, average 15 ? Yeah... but then there are other spells such as Ray of enfeeblement (which affects the critter's attack and damage rolls) and Unluck (CA) that are also very potent, so I wouldn't sweat it.

Wow. Don't you think that's a tad dire ? I mean, out of 20 times, the players WILL roll a 1: by your house rule, they will more or less loose between 1 and 4 magic items when that happens. I guess it's not too bad if there are magic shops in your campaign, but DANG ! If I played in such a...

If they decide to rest IN the dungeon, then quite often (depending on that particular dungeon ecology) they will be bugged during their resting time, maybe to dire levels. If they decide to rest outside, then quite often whoever lives in there will either seek out the PC's outside wherever...

Why do I even BOTHER posting rant threads when I know perfectly well that your are there, lurking around, ready to burst my bubble at a moments notice with your damn rules lawyering... ;)

I realized that after reading your post again. You will note that your reply to me came 4 minutes after I edited my post (the "No, it's not" is gone). :p

Heh. Yeah, I see that as a tool actually. I use my player's reflexes against them. About 10 years ago, I put a kitten in, say, room 4. It was SHAPED like a kitten, but I actually used the stats of a Tyranosaur. As soon as a player approached it going "Kitty kitty !" it jumped on him and...

Well, it's a least invocation. Of course the save DC should be low, like any low level spell from a cleric or wizard. Now, compare it with an Utterdark Blast, and you've got yourself a save DC of 18+cha bonus. Much better.

You didn't read the thread now, did you ? I have NO problem with the fact that you can't mostly use Heal on yourself. I agree with that. It makes sense. Doctors don't operate on themselves. I find it quite nice that the Heal skill is a skill that someone picks to help others. IMC, TWO...
