I don't really have any reference for the Daemons you are talking about for Book of Fiends. But I don't see why that should make Green Ronin's outsiders to be any different than Pathfinder is from 3.5's cosmology. Daemons in PF are about death? Who knew. I knew that the four horsemen are in PF's...

With whom/which?

In the system I've been working (for the past year and a half or so) has very similar consolidations. Part of the issue I'm still grappling with is the names of certain types (like your "aberrants") but I'll gladly share my thoughts on this subject. This kind of came and went a little while...

Your link to the Illujans didn't work for me, and I can't find any links or pictures of them online. Also, the Nagaji has the word ophidian in the first sentence of their description. So clearly you are looking for something else. What about the descriptions for Illujans and Ophidians do you...

Well, yeah I knew that devas (pre-4e) were angels. Where can I find the reference to "FR calls these new devas aasimars?" Because that seems to be the issue. Either way, I don't really see the problem - you addressed only 1 of my 5 points about devas as aasimars.

As far as the article goes: I don't like the write up for Cambion. It seems to lose a lot in translation. Like if I were to say all elves were "tree hugging hippies, who sat around in large grassy huts in the forest and did dances on the solstices." That would seem to ignore all the other...

Mike could have saved some time. He could have gone back to the first two 5e L+L articles (early January of last year I believe) to garner these tidbits of "insight" into the playtest community. Personally, I'm seeing a lot of repeats with similar wording in this recent article compared to the...

I agree with the inconsistent feel for helmed horror. I think that has to do with them taking a pre-existing creature, stripping away much of the fluff and purpose that relates to it, then repackaging it as something we've already seen. Why aren't helmed horrors just weaker golems or maybe the...

I agree. I've been saying this for a year and a half (perhaps longer?). Healing, magical or natural, is issue 1. You should not seriously expect to build everything else and ignore healing. With that said, they have a pretty definite direction in mind. And unless you brought a sizable...

Attack: ( 15/10/5* + 15** + 15/10/5** ) + ( -2*** ) + ( 6***** ) + ( 4****** ) + ( 1******* ) = 24/19/14 + 24 + 24/19/14 * Full BAB for lvl 15 Barbarian ** Speed Weapon *** Full TWF tree **** Minimum penalty, using light weapons ***** DEX bonus ****** +4 Weapon ******* +1 on attacks for being a...

So, let me get this straight. In 5e in your mind the monster creation rules should be 4e's model but the character creation rules should be 3e. And the problem with making monster-PCs is that they would have to follow 3e's model to make that possible? Wow. Yeah, I disagree with you too. Also...

The 80% stat is as fictional now as it was when Hussar said it back then. I repeatedly asked for stats, then went and found the ones that he was using and showed that he was using them wrong. Again, 44% are saying to scrap it. 44% is NOT 80%. You can hope that others agree with you enough to...

Mithril chain is probably the best bet for a DEX based character like 90% of the time. It is a great armor and easily upgradeable. Some things that would help us are; (a) What books you are limited to, (b) things about your personality as opposed to stats. If you want a better offense then you...

Yes. At the same time it is both easier and harder to get to that kingdom over the mountains. News from that kingdom affects this one in vastly different ways than news from elysium. Basically I would boil this down to asking: "Are outsiders/immortals different in some way from "random human...

I hadn't realized the results were out.. but they are. For the most "offending" category: 5) How important is it to you that players can make truly monstrous characters, such as gold dragons, water nagas, and green slaads? I can’t run my campaign or play my favorite PC without rules for...

The only way to get "probably don't object to one occasional monstrous PC" you have to have the option of "party consisting of a werewolf monk, an iron golem embermage, and an incubus paladin". Just as it would be if: It is fine to have a party with a necromancer, what bothers people is if...

Outsider Type An outsider is at least partially composed of the essence (but not necessarily the material) of some plane other than the Material Plane. Some creatures start out as some other type and become outsiders when they attain a higher (or lower) state of spiritual existence...

So? It is no more different than if you wanted to make an Outsider (Demons) into an aberration in 4e. It is NOT at all what the topic of this conversation is, at least to my knowledge. If we want to talk about how monsters are made then we can do that, but that has nothing to do with the right...

Actually, no I can't give examples. As I understand it I'm not allowed to quote sections from 4e to post to boards like these. Plus it is hard to prove the breadth of such things without counting literally every instance in the books. Further proof of what I'm saying probably relates more to...

We've really REALLY got to stop doing this. But .. here we go again. When I last checked (after reading your previous post and before doing my own) I couldn't find any stats on that poll anymore. It didn't work. We'll probably have to wait until sometime this week coming up to see the full...
