    Well, that was a waste of time.

    PHB2 Weapon Mastery Feats - How to fix?

    I agree with most of the posters above. Two feats for a measly +1 to hit and +2 to damage is a high cost. And 99% of my fighters did not choose to make that payment, instead concentrating on otehr feats that allowed more flashy combat manouvers. But now with Melee Mastery, it is a lot more...

    Heroes of Horror feat "Font of Life" question

    If you will be fighting lots of undead, you might wantto worry about your touch AC a bit. Shield ward from PHBII is a good way to get a better touch AC. ALso the armor featfrom Races of Stone is good. Invenst armor maybe? With that your tank can have touch Ac equal to his normal Ac, and best of...

    Why is archery the prefered combat style?

    Beats me. I have always seen Power Attack as the preferred combat style. Maybe too many Legolas fanboys at WOTC? But I am not totally sure what you mean, for the Ranged style is a Ranger ability, and in that case most Rangers i ahve seen go that route as you can do it more easily, and skip...

    You want a medal of a chest to pin it on? :] Looks intersting though. Might have to steal parts of it for my other game. Good find.

    Surprise Products

    There have been several for me. Mainly Races of Destiny. I found it to be pretty good, though the number of usable feats and prestige classes was definitely below Races of Stone. It's main problem was the Illumians, which i feel are a bit overpowered, and potentially abusable than other LA+0...

    Level Benefits or Class Benefits, which comes first?

    That is what it means. What it does not mean is you can take a class requiring BAB+5 at 5th level.

    Prestige class focusning on Rays

    The problem being that Spellwarp Sniper does not accept Skirmish as a requirement.

    Awakened dire animal characters

    I would tend to agreee to no LA, as massive sub-par hit dice will balance that out. i would generally go with a feat (Scent, pounce) or skill bonuses (+8 or so) being balanced by 3 hd. So a small animal with few hit dice but a lot of bonuses to skills or feat-like abilities may need a LA. In...

    Failed Game?

    I don't think and versions of D&D ahve failed, each had their strong core of people, and even though many moved on to new editions (as will someday probably happen with 3.5) a significant group of fans also stayed with the older version. The fact that all versions of D&D are currently being...

    Increasing Spell Resistance

    I think there is a monsterous feat that gives you +2.

    Quick Unarmed strike question

    No, check the FAQ.

    A commoner Unarmed Strikes are Natural Weapons?

    I do not think Unarmed should be treated as nbatural weapons or manufactured weapons for the purpsoes of enchanting and such. They tried to simplify the strike and really made it a mess. I simplify by banningthe monk, for that among many other reasons. But by the rules, I would say not a...

    Most broken prestige classes?

    I do not likethe Heirophant, as their abilities are on apr with or slightly weaker tahn the wizard's but htey get no new spells. Of course I consider it a grand addition after 20th level, when caster progression is already at 20th and cannot improve more. Getting 5 epic feats in a row cannot be...

    What use is the Beguiler ability "Surprise Casting"?

    If you go up to 6th level in the class and then go Rogue, it is awesome. Free action rolls means full attacks, especially if you can get a bit of two weapon fighting going also.

    [Speculation] Compendium II

    How about the 4E rumor Compendium? That would take up my whole living room by itself. But seriously, now that I have done my required mention of 4E, I don't think we needed the Rules Compendium or any others. Spell Compendium was nice ,and I would probably buy the second if it ever came out. I...

    Being threatened by products you aren't interested in

    Well, I think you are comparing Apples and Oranges. For an Author, there is nothing you can really do to speed them up or push them in one way. Complain away, but they are generally not pused by fan feedback. Plus, most authors follow a yearly schedule, so all you have to do is wait and you will...

    How Much of a Railroader Are You?

    Railroading is such a negative term, and it has really expanded to mean 'The DM makes me doe something I don't want to' or 'The DM is unfair to my character' I think the adventure paths are a prime example of how a game should run. The DM has an overaching plot, and the chractrers basically go...

    Taking 20 Too Often

    Remind your players that the sysyem is d20, as in dice 20, not take 20. Seriously, it is annoying that the rule exists at all in the first place. Take 10 I can agree with, but 20 just makes the d20 redundant for far too many isituations. For my games, I really (ab)use the 'penalty for failure'...
