One word: Frontloading. Btw: PHB, on ranger FE: "... he gets a +2 bonus on weapon damage rolls against such creatures." Nowhere does it say it's precision damage. In 3.5, undead/ elementals/ oozes/ constructs/ plants ARE subject to FE bonus damage.

FR realms ranger substitution levels play the "other card" I am afraid - either you get so-so abilities, or you're one of Mystra's boys (as mostly ;) ), going for Shooting Star (sending 1/day, increased caster level, bonus spells/day, word of recall on your spell list) - thus, not that interesting.

Since in real-world theory, a baby/very young leopard is not much of a challenge & unable to survive without its mother, i'd say cat is allrigt (with some limits on racial bonuses - the baby has yet to learn them, after all). A newborn leopard will not be much over 1 lb. in weight, while even a...

Please observe the books allowed. Exalted Deeds was not on the list. Apart from that, who would waste FoR caster levels with pansy 1/2 progression casting? A level of cleric is mandatory (actually 2+, to net you at least level 6 cleric spells).

At level 9, even your mediocre Wisdom should qualify for a 2nd level spell - Angelskin for DR 5/evil might be a choice, though lasting only 4 rounds for you. Feats-wise, I allways recommend Practiced Spellcaster to get you an acceptable caster level - but with Wis 12, that's maybe not exactly a...

So I don't have the very first edition of it - BOO! Thanx for mentioning this!

Exactly.

That view is very... personal. By the middle 14th century, heavy cavalry began to fail in key engagements of the Hundred-Years War (Crecy 1346, Agincourt 1415), and while still being a very important shock unit, began its decline. At Sempach 1386, the Austrian elite knights were beaten by a...

The CW version is uber-crappy from my not so humble point of view. You'd be better off with the uninspired/bland OA variant that grant a bonus feat per spell level attained.

Hmm, don't like to gainsay this - it's been a long time since last I had my 1st Ed DMG in hands, but would you mind pointing out a reference? I seem to have never really connected the two back in the "old days" - but maybe I was just seeing what I wanted to see? :uhoh: Any push for my brain...

Beg your pardon ? :heh: Not questionable refered to the simple fact that his DM allows this PrC. I thought I had made it quite clear that this PrC was grossly overpowered from my point of view and that the erratum did only make it a "very powerful PrC". As a DM, I would MAYBE allow this in...

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/sp/20040213a Aasimar as a ECL 0 character race. The way Kafkonia describes it sums up to: Just ignore the fact you're an ECL +1 race. Doesn't sound valid to me. Everybody would play an ECL +x race with these rules.

Note that the Dragonlance War Mage has been greatly nerfed. It was the most powerful arcane PrC around. Now it is only very, very powerful. 5 levels to get: +3 untyped bonus damage per die of damage (!!!) Cha bonus to defelection AC for 3 allies 2 Metamagic feats of choice It was simply...

Veering slightly off topic here... do you really think that Call of Cthulhu had to be implemented into D&D?

While the note seems rediculous at first, you could well use a lance two-handed while mounted. Our perception of the European Medieval knight contradicts at first (at least, that's what mine did ;) ) - but history shows us that Middle-Eastern/Persian/Late Roman Cataphractii used their lances...

No, it is not. It is totally overpowered. You basically hand out 5d6 Sneak Attack & 5d6 Skirmish that won't stack. That alone is WAY too good. Since you only have to meet requirements of a Sneak Attack/Skirmish to trigger it, this will work against all targets, even those immune to critical...

Where did you get the necessary spell slots of 12th level from? :confused: Even with a lenient ruling on feats such as Elven Spell Lore, it's still a 9th level spell - and to further improve this, you surely won't build your whole character around the concept of trowing measy 3rd -level spells...

Sorry, and what's uhh...that? :heh: http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org/35/sovelior_sage/unearthedArcana.html Granted, it is not the whole UA material (as noted), that's why I asked whether it was part of the SRD... Well, I'll keep on searching for an UA variant that lets you substitute...

No.

The Unearthed Arcana material is not from 3.5 SRD, right? Or am I missing something? I personally wouldn't give him the second combat style, for that would make it very tempting to use the class as a 2-6 level dip only. At 6th level, you'd have the equivalent of 6 bonus feats (as long as you...
