thats the reason i'd cap the max +dmg pretty low you can only draw a bow back so far the other option is a mechanic for spending more time per attack (thus fewer attacks per round) to aim for vital areas

cool flavor, poorly defined mechanics how many pinches are in a body? what if i eat 40 pinches at once? how many memories does the dm have to create in order to randomly select one? maybe a premade table would help

what about charging and AoOs (provoking and threatening)? --- i'd cap a power shot feat and only a few +dmg alternatively maybe an archer could skip shots to expand their crit range

Dear Dragon Magazine Forum, I never thought anything like this would ever happen to me...

you answered your own question daggers are covert (concealable before and after the hit) daggers are spooky, greataxes are scary try getting a greataxe anywhere near an important target, its not going to happen (unless you're a Chaser in Austrialia)

the main 3.5 FAQ covers detect magic and supernatural abilties

and more hitpoints too!

somewhere around here theres rules for opposing tumble checks, to make tumbling past experienced combatants harder than tumbling past novices. has anyone applied that idea to concentration checks to casting defensively? (have i brought this up before? i'm feeling all deja vu 'y)

Strength Requirement: this sparked my memory that i had seen a pdf about all bows/xbows being built for a specific strength and each strength had its own damage and range increment. Discussion of Bows (linking to other communities is okay, right?) possibly useful to Yair also useful would be the...

could this line support ending the move in the opponents space?

did someone cast Resurrect Thread on this one? all classes use the 5ft step to avoid AoOs equally?

this is where D&D dmg reduction gets complicated "Splint Mail - DR1/bashing or piercing" means that 1 damage is subtracted from attacks that arent "bashing or piercing" (ie. slashing) and if i'm right, "Full-Plate - DR2/bashing AND piercing" would mean 2 damage is subtracted from attacks that...

recently PBS re-airred an episode of NOVA, Secrets of Lost Empires: Medieval Siege, i which the effectiveness and range of trebuchets (in Britian, used against Welsh castles) was tested. At the beginning of the program they decided that trebuchets needed to be outside the range of a Welsh...

hah, i was reading this thread and was surprised to read a post by myself (from a year ago) anyway did your players actually multiclass? did anyone multiclass into fighter? i'm guessing you've erased the 2(4) level fighter dip a feat a level sounds like a cool idea for balancing fewer magic...

just got to look at the PHB II and the duskblade class the spell Whirling Blade from Complete Arcane isnt on their spell list, but seems very appropriate (the spell throws a sword, attacking all in a line) should i expect problems if i give Duskblades access to it?

thanks for the replies Sanctuary seems like a decent way to escape a grapple does anyone have anything else to add?

after a long break, i'm back playing again felt real rusty on rules In our first adventure back an owlbear was grappling the barbarian, and after a couple rounds of him failing escape grapple checks, the cleric cast Sanctuary on him. I wasnt sure what to do, and ended up letting him escape the...

the problem i see with bonuses for favored classes is they make classes even more tightly associated with a specific race say you want to play a barbarian. choosing halforc would be that much more attractive than it already was compared to choosing elf or halfing. favored classes are already...
