Hey hey, UK! So are you looking primarily for art or writing/stat-blocks? Given the unpredictability of that particular power, I think Divine is the right spot for it. It can go low (vs. high AC opponents) or tremendously high. Best to err on the side of caution. I understand, which is why...

Let's see what you've got. Almost certainly, but I was citing a play-by-numbers scenario. I agree, but this fighter was a dwarven axe specialist with no real tweaking outside of appropriate feat selection. The only feats made ready were those from the SRD and the IHB. It's ability to...

Hey hey, UK! IIRC, Hulking Hurler wasn't "core", per se. It was in a splatbook. Depends on how much of a percentage you're willing to part with. :) Those, half the Divine and the Cosmic+ abilities; the original release was bare-bone... and by that I mean it had a cover and the feats. I...

He wasn't min-maxed anymore than any other fighter that's been played to 30th-level from 1st. If you have anymore derisive comments to make about the scenario, I hope someone quotes you, because you're going back on my ignore list.

:\ It's... "cheating" to use monsters from the ELH? Oh... that's right. You don't use dictionaries.

a) it would take UK about a month to stat up a "Krustyfied" Hec; and that's if he devoted every free moment to it. His rate of speed is disappointingly slow. b) a hero-deity doesn't have to be 15-20 HD, just at least 15 HD; the 30th-level fighter hero-deity is thus not a 'cheat' or a liar, as...

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but UK's epic stuff breaks rather easily... at least it does under practical game-play. I saw a 30th-level hero deity one-round a Hecatoncheires using nothing more than SRD and IHB. The man has good ideas, but under-cooked execution (thanks to insisting that he...

Spell [Effect] You create effects that mimic spells. Benefit: Choose a spell you wish to mimic; you do not need to be able to cast this spell on your own. The effective level of this spell is equal to your divine rank, and targets subjected to it are entitled to a save (DC 10 + spell level +...

Or perhaps those are specifically-phrased exceptions to a largely uncontested rule.

Bonus damage dice are never multiplied. If it were just a flat bonus to damage, then yes.

Hey hey, UK! Well it sounds like you've got your hands full. Was the printer cartridge so expensive due to the age of the model? Good luck with work; I know how scheduling can put a crimp in the best-laid timetables.

So, UK: what's the deal? Can we get a progress report on the book?

True enough, WD.

Also, consider that the resonance transfer is only 1% efficient: 10% of what you have can be imbued in an object, and only 10% of that is granted to the user. I'd suggest the following options: A higher transfer maximum; i.e. you can imbue more than 10% of your QP into an object. A higher...

Hey hey! Oh, you know what? I think that's just about sweet. I mean, right now the divine templates are pretty much that: quasi-deity is a 20th-level template, etc.

There is utterly no reliance on online material. It's all supplemental material. Please understand that, if nothing else. You DO NOT need a computer to play 4th Edition; you need a computer to, as it is now, access online material.

It's true that, unlike the move from 3.0 to 3.5, we don't really know that "levels" are worth in 4th Ed. Very likely the power is relatively the same (possibly stronger in 4E), but we just don't know enough to say anything. What it comes down to for UK is whether or not he wants to finish...

It's a) going to be the standard. If you don't want to play it, no one is forcing you but you will surely be left behind insofar as material support and new product. Ask th 2E dinosaurs how that's been treating them. b) still a pen-and-paper game; no one is forcing you to use the online...

It seems so, yes... perhaps a lean back towards the 3.0 DDG would be in order? While there were no HD limits, really, there were averages. Something like +10 maximum HD per tier (demigods could go to 40th, lesser deities 50th, and so on, with greater deities being able to reach as high as 70th...

Hey hey, UK. Outside of the fact that the Dexterity ability score is not the sole determinant for the concept of one being "skilled"? That alone seems to smack of a problem to me. I'd just rename the portfolio to Agility, since that's what the spells affect the most. After that it's a short...
