How does the evil druid who somehow worships 2 powers and despises any and all arcane magicks justify traveling with a PC wizard? and 1-2 other characters who will likely be using UMD to activate arcane scrolls etc....Ashbound are hard-core anti-arcane. If the DM allows a feat like greenbound...

I've been toying with the idea of playing a arcane heirophant, with the Beast totem chain from the Ebberron books. That way he can have a Displacer beast animal companion/familiar. The Monster manual says only that displacer beasts are -usually- evil, meaning your DM 'should' allow you to find...

I think the BoVD had an improved version of Death Knell....I think it was called Consumptive Field? I'm going from memory and its been a long time since I cracked the spine on that book.... I think it was a 4th level spell that lasted rounds per level and automatically hit anyone who dropped...

I know they have to follow orders, but have you ever seen how evil creatures are so good at twisting around the intent of a 'contract'... It seems strange to me that they can even gate in other balors in the first place...I can just imagine a war on a battlefield someplace in a lower plane...

I have trouble with my suspension of disbelief that one balor would cooperate with another balor to kill off some mere mortals...In fact it makes more sense if the summoned balor were to try and HELP the PCs since if the gated balor dies then he is dead dead....less competition for the next...

A psion could hit it with an augmented Ego Whip ....Take several d4s charisma damage....save for half....thank you, come again :) If they are 11th+ and dont have heroes feast up every day something is wrong. If they dont have that buff, then the poison could very likely TPK the party. With a...

It sounds to me like you want your PCs to experience a TPK? Even if that is not the case, it sounds kind of anti-climactic to go all the way to Hell and not really get to experience anything...If they are all exalted and are basically hard-wired to attack anything they meet there, that makes it...

The requirements to qualify for both Tempest and Dervish are extensive...spring attack tree, and two-wep tree. Dodge, mobility, spring attack, two wep fighting, imp 2 wep fighting, combat expertise, weapon focus. Thats 7 feats! So a human scout would have to be 9th level and spend all their...

High strength... Cleric 20, Wizard 20, Druid 20, all have access to shapechange, or other broken spells to make them uber strong. If you want to go fancy, you could go with a druid with 1 lvl of barbarian, then go frenzied berzerker and bear warrior. Bear form + Rage + frenzy = huge...

Yet said caster only requires a 12 intelligence to cast the empowered scorching ray, since metamagic increases the spell slot required but not the effective spell level. Also, the saving throw for a spell modified with metamagic still operates as the original spell level, with the exception of...

I would ask your DM to allow you to take the song of the Heart feat from Ebberon, and the Inspirational boost spell from the spell compendium(a 1st level bard spell). Both the feat and the spell give you a +1 bonus on your inspire courage ability...Bardic music is basically a bards largest...

As a player, I would seriously cry foul at multi-poisonings. Especially given the general double standard nature of poisons...ie poison almost exclusively being used by NPCs and monsters, and PCs having alignment issues if they use it regularly. I think its fair to raise the save DC a bit if...

It's pretty clear that after you charge an opponent, you get 1 attack....with pounce you charge the opponent and then get a full attack instead of a single attack. The wording even says 'instead'. If it is not referring to the single attack you get after a charge, then what other single attack...

Poisons typically require 2 saves. Once for the initial damage, and again for the secondary damage. Making the first save makes no difference. Of course, not all poisons work exactly alike. If you are DMing, you have the right to make things a little more interesting. I've played in games...

Can a warforged with monk levels use any of the monk abilities that require them to be unarmored? The composite plating racial ability of warforged hinders them as if it were armor, takes up the armor slot, has an armor check and spell failure chance associated with it. I ask because in my age...

I'm playing a warblade currently going through the Age of Worms storyline adapted for Ebberon. We just hit 6th level and sofar he is a lot of fun. He definitely hits harder than anyone else in the group, but he is behind on the defensive front. He's also got a neat twist as he's inherited the...

I thought the goal of the skill challenge = get in and save the woman? Not skill challenge a. get through door. B. get up the stairs to her room. c get her back out etc.... That's the point of having the 4 success before 2 failures, I think. If you get 4 successes before failing twice...

Expansion is the easiest way. Couple levels of monk then the rest in psionic warrior, possibly with levels in Slayer or Warmind depending on your tastes. Monastic Training + Tashalatora = Amazingly good. Expansion can make you Huge, Imp Natural attack makes your natural weapon Gargantuan...

What exactly did the druid use to shape in the first place? If he was standing on a wooden floor, then the wood was most likely either too small (wooden boards) to use in that manner, or too large (big logs) to be effected by the spell. A 14th level caster could affect 24 cubic feet of...

Battlefield mobility, stackable effective monk levels, +1 or +2 stackable ac as long as you aren't flat footed. Yet ANOTHER dice increase for monk unarmed damage....which equates to several d8s worth of damage at high level. It can't be sundered, disarmed, or stolen. It makes a monk better at...
