    Should I Ban Tanglefoot Bags?

    Umm, yeah. There's a first level spell that is *much* more effective than a tangle foot bag. Did you ban that spell too? By your reasoning, that 1st level spell would be just as powerful as a 4th level spell.

    pinpointing invisible opponents

    So, wait. I have some questions based on some things said in previous posts. Let's say I'm a diviner who's currently invisible (via the Invisibility spell). Does summoning a creature (knowing it is going to attack the foe nearest to it) dispel my invisibility, or does my invisibility remain...

    Cleave on an AoO?

    If someone in my party is wearing a necklace of fireballs that explodes because of a failed save, and I happen to be in the area of the resulting explosion, is it "right' that I'm made to "pay" for the other party's mistake? No, I'm in the wrong place at the wrong time. Same thing with someone...

    Gelatinous cube tpk

    It's from Babylon 5. The joke is that both of the characters in the conversation are Centauri (an alien race), and therefore, were 'unable to make their Knowledge checks' about ducks or cats.

    How do you determine if a character is diseased?

    A lot of the characters in the party I am in push the light limit for their encumbrance. If they can carry 66 lbs of gear before hitting medium encumbrance, they're carrying 65.5 lbs of stuff. Taking one point of Str damage puts them into medium load which *instantly* drops their movement...

    Cleave on an AoO?

    But wait. The fact is that, with cleave, no matter how 'careful' Target A is (even avoiding AoOs and such), Target A can get cleaved whether or not whether the Cleaver is making a 'normal' attack or attacking on an AoO, as long as Target A is within cleave range when the Cleaver drops someone...

    How do you determine if a character is diseased?

    Well, except when the rogue suddenly notices she's a bit worse at disarming traps or dodging (if dex drops one point from an even number), the fighter feels less hardy (con dropping one point from an even number), or *any* character suddenly can't carry as much as they could (one point of str...

    Cleave on an AoO?

    Because, it doesn't matter what the *target* of the cleave is doing. If the targets were visible, would that make a whole lot more sense for the guy getting smacked? "Oh! Now I see how he's able to whack me all the time." Um, yeah. The target of the cleave is still getting attacked because...

    Can you flank with a non-ally?

    Ranged attacks don't threaten, one reason why someone armed with a ranged weapon cannot make an attack of opportunity.

    Cleave on an AoO?

    Um, if anyone tried the invisible 'dire lemmings', they should be slapped, just like with the 'bag 'o rats'. Just thinking of someone trying that scenario is assinine. But, taking that scenario to an actual 'reasonable' level, If there were a bunch of actual invisible combatants, such as...

    Concerning Power Attack

    The question becomes, then, when exactly do you make it a class feature? Too low, and it becomes another 'one dip'. Too high, and someone who wants to start out with the feat (to get Cleave and Great Cleave asap) gets shafted. Leaving Power Attack as a Feat does seem to be for the best, honestly.

    How to stop Tumblers?

    I honestly don't see a problem with it, especially since it's mostly going to be characters with low HP (rogues and such) who are avoiding AoOs to get in just one attack. If I take tumble with a non-roguely type, it's usually only to get the bonus to full defense and defensive attack that 5...

    Evard's Black Tentacles

    The FAQ added the addendum that once something escapes the grapple it's not re-grappled until it leaves and re-enters the area. It nerfs the spell quite a bit, making it almost useless.

    Lesser Globe of Invulnerability Question

    I'd really like someone who has a good grasp of the rules (Hyp, I'm glancing in your direction :cool: ) help with a Lesser Globe of Invulnerability (LGoI) question. According to the RAW, LGoI 'suppresses magical effects' inside of it. So, lets say I decide to cast Stinking Cloud with it's...

    any help for a winpy wizzard?

    Go for an 'area control' spell set. Invisibility plus lots of summon spells can be good. Also, wall spells or web. Glitterdust can be fun (as it can blind and prevents stuff from being invisible). There are tons of spells that can be cast while invisible that don't break invisibility, yet...

    Why the heck are bags of holding so heavy?

    Except, what I house ruled did have a lot to do with what you brought up.. Your rule, and correct me if I'm wrong, is that the sack weighs as much as a normal sack all the time. If that's the case, it most certainly is broken, for reasons I've already explained, but will reiterate. And, my...
