So the listed is how they usually advance right? What about natural armor, ability scores, etc? Do they go up if something goes from 4 to 8 or so?

Well, I dislike creatures larger then large. I don't like huge and above and non-humanoids are usually bigger when they get stronger rather then tougher.

Can most monsters gain levels? I was looking at formian workers and for advancement it just says 2HD, large. Can it also gain classes?

I looked at it like the wild west days. Your average trapper/cowboy, etc had MUCH better equipment then your average private in the army. Why? Because he was likely to get into a fight with native americans, angry grizzly bears, bandits, etc a LOT more then your average army soldier was...

Well, I'm the only party member with martial weapon prof - so I plan on finding a decent weapon. I also don't want to specialize. I read the arguement on that thread - I think it's available right away. 1pt per hit - whee!! Not any more overpowered then a rgr1/fgt5 using a wand of cure light...

Okay, he's currently a Dwarven bbn2/fgt3 and he level up to 6th and I'll probably take another fighter level. I rolled almost max on hp, which is almost my only defense. Feats: I have unerring strike, Sprint, extra rage, and improved initiative. 17 str 16 dex 18 con 10 int 8 wis 6 cha I...

On a chase we break it off of combat rules and use RP supported by judgement. Two people with even speeds will make opposed dex checks to edge out an advantage of 5-10ft or so during the run. If they win twice in a row they can try to stop or attack the other person. Con checks if they do it...

Blah, company filter blocked the site. Can someone paste the text into here?

There are merits to just not taking that path. But the question was put before us - how do I deal with this situation? Obviously not going that route is one, but it doesn't add to his question. If the barbarian likes them he could just not say that command word, another option is to say it in...

In the DMG, but not the PHB, there were bracers that locked together like handcuffs when a command word was spoken. In the cursed items section I think. Very useful items for him to be contained with. He'll still bite your leg off or maybe bleed on you, but it should stop his greataxe. Also...

It grapples creatures or objects and ignores OBJECTS smaller then medium sized. So it won't grapple your torch or a sword, but it will grapple the table, bench, or huge rack of alchemist fires perched precariously on the edge... :) It says nothing about ignoring creatures smaller then medium...

Why wouldn't it attack you? It says that it grapples nearby creatures or objects but ignores objects smaller then a medium sized person. It doesn't ignore any creatures smaller then medium.

Mine isn't nearly as fun. I've always wanted to play, but I never had any friends that did. I finally started playing when I was 24 and I've been hooked for a year and a half. I friend at work was telling me about his halfling being almost eaten by a giant spider ( I was big into fantasy...

Is that the 3rd book in the war of souls? With Gerard, etc? I read #2 months ago and I'm looking forward to it, I wasn't aware it was out yet.

I believe there has been comments regarding this. Creatures with DR can sunder, etc. What it cannot do is count as +1 weapons, etc for attack/damage.

SRD is all I have at work. They probably wouldn't appreciate me bringing in my gaming bag. And a player new to D&D (hasn't played in 10yrs anyways) is borrowing my PHB.

Dang, I lent out my PHB and the SRD doesn't make any mention of slow. Why do they edit spells like that? So a PC with the travel domain would be unaffected by slow for x rounds, but slow could still dispel haste right?

Travel domain and freedom of movement allow you to act normally when you're impeeded. Would the slow spell count for that? I tend to think it's for things like swinging swords underwater, web spells, hold person. Yet slow impeeds your movement as well by giving you only partial actions.

It depends on if you looted the backup weapon or if you want to buy one. If you loot it you're better off with keeping it. If you're buying then a scroll might be best.

We're getting conflicting opinions here but I'm pretty sure that it dispels it without needing to make a save.
