    Can you go home again?

    I don't think I could get taht feeling by going back to any earlier version of D&D. The mystery ,and excitement can only be had from a new game system, I fear. Not knowing what you are doing, and trying stuff because it 'should' work, was the best fun of my early D&D games. When i started to...

    Help with Feats for a Cleric

    Hmm, feats for a cleric.... A few of my faves below Divine Vigor: Arguably the best of all the Divine feats. At least one divine feat as you neeed something to do with unused Turning attempts. Spontaneous Domain. A great way to increase your versatility in spellcasting. Another set of spells...

    Preferred Non-Dragon Flying Mount?

    Very thoretical for me. I rarely have my characters on horses, even. But I would go with Roc. Always liked the things. Anything that can take an elephant home for supper has my vote.

    Improving Your Touch AC

    One spell my dragons love is Sncintillating Scales or some such form spell Compendium. Makes their mnatural ac a deflection bonus, which helps with touch attacks and really screws mages targeting them with touch spells.

    Better: Duskblade or Duskblade/Wizard/Ultimate Magus?

    You cannot target the same target more than once with an ability or spell. That is a basic rule of targeting.

    Better: Duskblade or Duskblade/Wizard/Ultimate Magus?

    That is how I understand it also. Good and powerful, but being able to do such 3 touch attacks against one target would be too powerful.

    Is Iron Will an Untyped Bonus?

    Wow, what a sub-optimal build that would be, taking Improved Spell Focus/Weapon focus for every single feat you get in the whole game! BTW, how do you get infinite feats, except for playing Pun-pun? A bit of a ridiculous example. I can actually think of few feats that woud be broken even if...

    Is a kobold a suitable PC race ?

    They work fine for casters, and decently for rogues. I've never had one in my party, as my party tends to stay with PHB races, but I might allow them. Races of the Dragon can beef them up quite a bit. thye can be eve mroe powerful with Venerable age and some cheese.

    We need a cool new name for character optimizers...

    Can you really call 99.9%a subsection? :)

    How do you store your Dungeon Tiles?

    I sorted them into sizes and arranged all of them with boring side (normal squares) down, and then sub-sorted each size into general catagories of pictures, msotly dark or colorful. After rubber-banding each set, I puthem all into a clear plactic folder aboutan inch high and the size of a...

    Improving Your Touch AC

    The psionic feats is Invest armor, which requires Heavy Armor Optimization, whcih requires 4 BAB. And only works in heavy armor. The scary thing is with Shield ward and that feat, you can end up with a touch AC equal to your normal Ac as magical bonuses count also. Nice against touch spells...

    Wow, someone else is bing super competent at the moment, isn't he?

    Poll: Would you ever take this feat as a PC?

    No, never. Once in my lifetime? Feats are too valuable for that, and it only takes you to -9. If it healed me totally, I might take it, or at least consider it. That would be more balanced. And I would not allow anyone to retrain it away after using it, either :)

    What I Learnt From Last Night's Session

    Yes, that would be good. Horses are scary tough at low levels, but by level 5 they are a joke. Great cleave fodder for a fighter.

    Plane Hopping Creatures (no LA)?

    To help balance their plane shifting ability, make sure they can never choose that plane they are going to. And make a table something like 1-30 Elemental plane of fire 31-60 Negative Energy plane 61-90 Positive Energy Plane 91-99 Plane msot opposed to your alignment(or if neutral, the plane of...

    Game vs. Story

    Agian, the poll is probably a bit simplistic. But to answer the question, I mainly play a game, and the story is part of that game, but subserviant to it, its lapdog. The players and characters come first, and their actions have a srong effect on the story, though the story has a life of its...

    Favored Soul/Battle Sorcerer

    The problem being that both FS and BS have to choose their spells. And can still only castthem once per day. Arcane Disciple works far better with a class that knows their entire list likea beguiler, for example. If I only ahve 2 3rd level spells known, choosing CSW (Which I can cast once per...

    Better: Duskblade or Duskblade/Wizard/Ultimate Magus?

    I would see a Duskblade vs a Duskblade/Wizard/UM as totally different cats. A duskblade's eal strength is not in spells but in hit points, armor allowed, and BAB. All of which an UM does not grant. Perhaps DB/W/UM is strong for the first couple of levels, get Duskblade, then go wizard and then...

    Standard Array Warblade: Where do you put the 10?

    In wisdom of course. Or Charisma, natch. Doesn't really matter one way or the other.

    Item that raises spellcraft?

    Maybe in FR. But I cannot recall any items that do so.
