    Magic Item Compendium: The Diablo II gems have made their way to D&D!

    Yeah, a +1 Undead Bane Weapon with a lesser Truedeath Crystal for only 10.315 gp gives you a Ghost Touch +3 Longsword with +3d6 vs, Undead. In the olden times it would have been a +1 (+3vs Undead) Undead Bane Ghost Touch for 18.315 gp. Without the additional +1d6. The saved 8.000 gp can be...

    Piratecat ruined my D&D game

    Yes, there are about 13 Player Deaths...in (contacts) Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil campaign (not the WOC adventure by Monte Cook but a homebrew). But if you read the follow-up campaign (with the surviving PCs): The Liberation of Tenh , you see that you can have an epic story and...

    How Important Is Rules Knowledge In Being A Good D&D DM?

    Rules knowledge Some time ago I read an Interview with Monte Cook. He admitted that he often has to look up modifiers and such things in the rulebooks. If one of the Designers of the 3rd Ed. has to look up rules, nobody has to be ashamed if he does not know all the stuff. What can help though...

    Has Enworld made you better?

    EN world greatly inspired me. I compare EN world to the Acashic Record of D&D roleplaying. I log in and dive into the sea and somewhere in a thread there is the answer/inspiration I seek. :D

    Best "jack of all trades" class or combo?

    Jack of all Trades The Akashic from Arcana Unearthed/Evolved by Monte Cook is the best Jack of all Trades Class that you can use 1 on 1 with Core D&D The Jack of all Trades from the Black Company Campaign Setting by Green Ronin is a very good all rounder but you might have to tweak this Class...

    Finally got the new Ravenloft.

    Hmm, I wonder if John Cooper will write a review and give the stats a look over. One of the things that bother me to no end with WOTC products is the bad stat blocks.

    Ptolus Centaur's.

    Even if the Centaur is incredibly strong, there is a difference between a Human in Full Plate trying to climb a vertical Wall, using both arms and legs and a quadrupedal using arms and hoves. A Centaur weights about 2.100 pounds. Subtract 300 pounds for the weight a very big Human and apply the...

    Ptolus Centaur's.

    A Centaur has many disadvantages: 1) He is large and uses more space. In small dungeons he has to squeeze himself through constantly 2) Try to climb a wall 3) Try to get decent armor... sorry barding. Has to be custom made and will be expensive. 4) Centaurs are regarded as little mor than...

    What are your thought on the Mystic Theurge?

    As a sidenote: In his Book of Hallowed Might I, Monte Cook presented the Hallowd Mage Prestige Class. A Prestige Class that combine arcane and divine Spellcaster. This Prestige Class had a Spell list, staring with 4th lvl. Spells that combined Spells from Cleric and Sorc./Wiz. Spellists. He got...

    It's a beautiful baby +2 Vorpal Sword!

    Just to give my 2cent: Bithing large Items might not be a problem, if they grow after birth. A small +2 Greataxe is just the immature version of the large +2 Greataxe. Reading this thread , and thinking about the "Potions" post I had another Idea: What abou a sorcerer with avery special...

    What is Ptolus anyway?

    Without giving too much away: The History of Ptolus is tied to a very specific cosmology. The VBVBVEGs (very Big, very Bad etc) of this cosmology are Chtuluesque beings. You could use your run of the mill core gods or homebrew pantheon without any problems, but you should have a way to implant...

    Wow Mythusmage, you are as deep in love with the big book as I am. That description of Ptolus was the best I have read so far.

    Tell me about Warhammer Fantasy, please

    Skaven do NOT exist! You are a heretic and will burn on the stake! You are probably a Mutant and Chaos worshipper too. Neca eos omnes. Sigmar suos agnoset.
