You said it yourself: they just have really good rolls.

Yes, well, I didn't argue that it was not "strong" just that it was not "broken" or "too powerful" (the OP's wording.) Another poster has a relevant comment with a slightly different stance that I feel is reasonable: Of course blindness and nausea are not identical, but they are in many...

Avast thar! Scurvy land-lubbers be hornswagglin' amidships!

I second Warblade. It can drastically increase your survivability at those low levels where you need it the most - plus, it opens up fighter/mage PrCs.

Sorry, but I can't see how this is worse than Glitterdust (also a 2nd level spell), which blinds multiple enemies.

While not a class or PrC, masochism (BoVD spell) and items made with the spell boost your damage based on the damage you take.

Rosa bids her comrades farewell, though not without an attempt to change their minds, as she does not particularly relish losing members in the middle of the mission. "Let us meet again," she says as they part. Rosa needs to rest for eight hours, but is happy to take a watch after that if...

My initial response to the OP was, "Does it actually take 15 minutes?" I only find myself messing with point distribution, levels, etc. for named (major) NPCs. For everything else, there's the suboptimal entries in books.

I've never heard of items countering spells as a general principle, unless you're talking about artifacts, which are superior to mortal magic. Magic items have caster levels and the spells they cast have spell levels, and those are consulted.

HRs are going to rely on DM judgment (obviously). I believe there is a thread floating around pointing out the discrepancies in the different feats - some require class levels (ascetic mage) and others do not (ascetic knight.) Also note that each feat advances class features selectively in...

Thank you :D

It's great how Elan places his faith in his fellow Banjoites.

As Trent takes over negotiations with the poison-dusk, Rosa makes one last sweep of the area, checking for anything they missed, and helps pack the loot into bags. She then approaches Fenwick and tries to quickly summarize the deal for him. Search (1d20 11=30) OOC: If everyone starts leaving...

Voidrazor - Magic Circle. Dichotomy - great! Sure, it's possible to craft a large Swordbow. You can also sell back stuff to Hanaav the Artificer as though you were selling to a store (in essence he is your store, as most normal stores probably wouldn't deal with you.) We can say the...

It depends on how the DM interprets the limits of divine spellcasters. In the case of druids, you're dealing with people who can't wear metal due to reverence of nature, which is arguably at least equally stupid, as metal is naturally present in the earth. ;) Common sense is not really a...

Rosa buckles on the belt and invokes it, then steadies herself as poison courses through her veins. Healing from Trent's belt (2d8=14) Fort saves vs. poison with 2 AP spent (1d20 5=14, 1d6=3, 1d20 5=25, 1d6=3) OOC: 17 and 28. I don't suppose Trent could use the Heal skill to aid my saves...

I think Rosa can scout just fine if she gets healed up. Verdin is the only NPC to have spotted her so far, so she has a decent track record. If we hired him it would probably be as an archer and a tracker. That's still dangerous, but no longer wildly dangerous. Regarding the items, Rosa will...

Note that Stand Still is better when part of the classic Hold the Line + Stand Still + Combat Reflexes reach weapon combo. For pre-errata C. Div slime wave is the obscene spell. Kills massive dragons in one shot.

The classic combo is Hold the Line + Stand Still + reach weapon + Combat Reflexes. :D
