Hello? Bump?

Try this - when enchanting a weapon, 20 arrows count as 1 weapon. When buying equipment, arrows are sold in lots of 20. Have this quiver produce 20 arrows, up to 3 times a day. That should lower your cost significantly. The other option is just make a variant of Heward's Handy Haversack...

Another solution would be to trade in the lower-level guys somehow. So, instead of 30 1st level, 3 2nd level, 1 3rd, and 1 4th level followers, you could figure out an equitable number of minimum ECL 3 critters. I'm shooting from the hip here, but I'd say 30 1st level creatures might be the...

It doesn't bother me that they flank - it just came up as an interesting question. After all, does the flanked creature *know* that someone can't hurt it? Do you want to open that can of worms? It was a philosophical discussion, rather than a rule argument. Thanks, though!

Hi all, We had an interesting question come up in our game last night, and I'm curious what people thought. We squared off against some shadows, and one of the PCs had the misfortune to not have a magical sword. So, he couldn't hurt the critters, so he started offering a flank. Can someone...

Shall I consider myself prodded? :p Just sent you an email ...

Hey all, I was taking the time to look through my Monster Manual IV again, to see what would be good critters for summon monster lists. Up to this point, I've followed the WOTC discussions how allowing infinitely expanding creatures to summon monster lists is unbalancing. To that end, I've...

Hey Eric, are you following me around the various boards? :D I only thought it sounded like a retcon because I hadn't recalled hearing *anything* about Bahamut previously. Everything I had recalled about Tiamat involved the Untheric pantheon. But if there was previous mention, that's cool...

Thanks BM! I read Dragons of Faerun, and it all sounded like a big retcon. I'm wondering if there was any real mention of Bahamut prior to Dragons of Faerun? As for Kauth, Sharpfang, and the dracoliches, I was looking more for semi-divine or extraplanar dragons. I figure Dragonfire Adepts...

If you are looking at enhancement items, look at the Belt of Glory (or some such thing) in the Miniatures Handbook. It grants a bonus to all stats, and it only takes up one slot.

Hey guys! There was a great article waaay back in dragon that outlined the CR's of the summonable creatures, and variants based on their spell-like abilities. I highly recommend it! We tried the UA variant of a custom list built 1 critter per character level, but it ended up with too narrow a...

Hey all, I'm looking at what to incorporate from Dragon Magic into my Forgotten Realms Campaign, and I have a couple of questions. I can see using the Dragonfire Adept, which is really a variant of the Warlock, being descended from divine or semi-divine dragons. So, since I'm running an...

I agree some of the classes should have been feat chains - but my players are pushing to try these classes, so I'm coming up with a rough idea where I'd want these classes from, and we'll give it a try. As long as they won't break the game. Something I'm noticing is the Warlock isn't broken...

Hi all, After much anguish over allowing more base classes (see my thread http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=173876) I've decided to allow more base classes in my Forgotten Realms campaign. Hexblades are probably people who follow the heritage of the Raumathauri battle mages. Samurai are...

I've never played anything higher than 18th level, so take my advice with a grain of salt ... - opt to take a 35th level cleric with magic item creation feats, and nearly double your wealth limit. - Leadership/Epic Leadership! With only a limited number of rounds in combat, taking a Cohort...

Ew! Good point! Ah well, it never happened, and that campaign came to a close when I had just taken 2 levels of Bonded Summoner, so it's moot, but thanks for the warning!

Good question! I was playing a Sorcerer/Bonded Summoner, and I looked at what would happen if I became an Elemental - it's not all sunshine and lollypops ... although no longer having to sleep, eat, or breathe is pretty cool. === Elemental Traits: An elemental possesses the following traits...

Hiya! My group plays every week on Thursdays. I'd say we have all the toys for playing (big game room, bar fridge for drinks, tact-tiles, alea tools magnets, pretty much all the WOTC books on hand, lotsa D&D minis). We tend to use a small handful of house rules (UA XP system, Action Points, a...

It's in the PHBII, I think.

Hey all! Don't forget an enemy spellcaster has a chance to identify the spell being cast if they witness it (Spellcraft DC 15 + spell level?). The point that Silence is an illusion (glamer) spell is a very good one - I've fired off an email to Sage Advice asking if people in the area are...
