    Epic Damage Reduction Feat

    Is there a feat that lets you bypass an epic creature's epic DR ?

    My Thoughts During RotS [SPOILERS]

    Apology accepted, Dagger75. ;) See ? I told you there were quite obvious inconsistencies. This one I caught immediately too. We could assume that when they wiped C3P0, the tech on Alderaan said "Hey boss, did senator Organa wanted that astromech wiped too ?" to which the chief tech could...

    My Thoughts During RotS [SPOILERS]

    Yeah... weird. Cause they ain't clone troopers ? Every individual clone trooper is a replica of the greatest bounty hunter in the galaxy (who by himself manages to off a Jedi in Ep. 2), whereas storm troopers are little more than brainwashed grunts. There are much bigger inconsistencies in...

    Episode III Rocked!!!

    I gave it an 8. Really cool flick. Anakin's look in his eyes as the Vader helmet descended upon his face gave me shivers. And the first breath. Damn. I was discussing this with my wife. I was disturbed too at that, but then I said 'this is not simply the case of a human being committing evil...

    Epic effects: pondering...

    Indeed. An experienced epic band has mostly only melee damage and spell damage to worry about.

    Epic effects: pondering...

    One thing that I observed while DMing epic games is that a bunch of epic critters have fear or poison attacks. Heroe's feast completely negates this. Unless a critter dispels the heroe's feast, the PC's aren't threatened by the fear or poison attacks. This seems like bad design of epic...

    Epic Challenges

    Very insightful indeed. I do many epic games. At first, it was little more than hack and slash, but as I made more games, I learned stuff, created rules, and understood things to make epic games better. One thing that I did learn, is that it's ridiculous to hit your players with random...

    Melf's Acid Arrow and Point Blank Shot

    Are you talking about sneak attacks ? That's 6 rounds the target is actually sneak-attackable. Most targets aren't. Ranged sneak attacks only work within 30 feet, not 500. That is, if I understood your example correctly. Somehow, I'm feeling I'm missing something. Warmage, same level, does...

    Warmage Edge

    Warmage Edge is actually you Int bonus to all your damage spells, plus there's a feat that cranks this even more (depending on level, up to 4 or 5 more IIRC). I agree that a straight +2 damage is a waste of a feat.

    Cooperative Dungeon IV: Update

    A... what ? ... Let me take this occasion to thank Tarchon for the awesome work he's doing. He is knocking down a lot of work, and does it in a very efficient and professional way. Thanks mate. :)

    Magic Item Creation-extra turning

    Eesh... like Staffan, I would rather have an item grant a flat-out feat then with 50 charges. With 50 turn attempts, it potentially allows a PC to use them all up in the course of a single day of dungeon delving. Depending on what rules you use for turning in your campaign and how you interpret...

    Magic Item Creation-extra turning

    Of course not. A stick created with the craft wand feat can only store spells of level 1-4. I was just saying...

    Cooperative Dungeon IV: Update

    We are hard at work on CD4 and it should be released soon (a few weeks to two months maybe).

    Magic Item Creation-extra turning

    Still, what's to prevent someone from making a Wondrous Item that takes the form of a 10 inch long stick that must be held in order to have it's magic functioning ? Granted, the craft wand feat can't build such an item. But I gave to my players in the past items such as staves that give some...

    Complete Arcane: Superior Invisibility

    Yeah... I'd still like to have Hyp consider it more when he has a chance to get to his books... Yeah, I've noticed :) Yig from this board is also from Montreal... and plays in my game. :D

    Complete Arcane: Superior Invisibility

    Sooo.... ... can the wizard cast verbal spells if he is under the effect of a superior invisibility ?

    Complete Arcane: Superior Invisibility

    If a wizard casts the spell Superior Invisibility from Complete Arcane p. 125, can he still cast spells with verbal components ? The spell mentions that it prevents sound...

    I killed Tarrasque and all I got was this lousy t-shirt!

    Well actually it was 2850 xp PER PLAYER and the cohorts got 2550 each, for a total party XP gain of 16200 xp. Only one character lost 5000 xp from the wish, so it's still a gain of 11200 xp overall. But I agree, it's kind of anticlimatic after killing what is supposed to be an uber-unique...

    I killed Tarrasque and all I got was this lousy t-shirt!

    (I'm the DM...) It was at the end of the gaming session, and I estimated that with their spells and weapons they could actually pull it off, so in order to move things along what would possibly boring and tedious, I just assumed they achieved it. That said, in a campaign a few years back I was...

    Protecting against Blasphemy

    Blasphemy as an "at-will" ability is a huge mistake that the game designers introduced. It forbids the DM to use the critter at all, until the players are actually higher level than it, in which case it becomes a cakewalk: all or nothing. Here's what you can do to fix Blasphemy as an "at-will"...
