Well, allow me to jump in and get flamed Someone, the problem I see with yoru argument is that you are looking at whatthe calss gets when compared to a straight archtypical charcter of the same general abilities. Radiant Servant--CLeric etc. While that is one way to compare, I think you need to...

Allowing Practiced Spellcaster to offset voluntary penalties, especially those sued for balance, is a bad idea in my opinion. Multiclassing, yes, but Wild Mage, no.

If there is a harder Prestige class to qualify for thean Arcane Heirpophant, i don't know what it is. I would probably not allow it if I was starting at high level, jsut like i would be leery of Mystic Theurge or any otehr class that has a really painful few levels. I doubt many would tkae...

The thing that bothers me about Improved Skirmish is how many levels of improvement it grants. +2d6 damage and +2AC is 8 levels of improvement Druid's animal companion fea grants +3 Practiced Spellcaster grants +4 Craven grants +4 levels (I think, I don't have the book) Anmd so on. It is a...

One point with a fighter/rogue is that a rogue has nearly the BAB of a fighter. Over 4 levels, youonly lose one BAB, and gain a lot of nice skills to make your fighter much more than a sword swinger. Add in some fighter feats, and a few levels of d10 hit points, plus having a good con, and it...

Umm some practice in stating your arguments in a polite manner?

I really have to agree. Either way you do it, they will be very very useful for anyone who can afford them. I don't think I wantthem in my games, especially if each one has a bunch of spells, but I do agree that this is what rods and staffs should have been since the beginning. I would like...

Well said. Well said

Let me say I agree totally about Radiant Servant. It is about the best cleric prestige class out there, and its main power vs undead is good, and may even make turning undead viable. It sucks to be a 12th level cleric who cannot turn a 15 HD zombie. Pretty humiliating, especially for those of us...

Hmm, is he a selling point, or an actually needed character? I fear the first.

Well, I have a daugher 15 and a son 10 right now. In my experience, write off the first three months, unless you like online gaming like yahoogroups where you can post any time of the day and night. (And believe me, you will be up at any time of the day and night.) The first three months ar the...

On my copy of MM, on page 144 it says, "Once a month, a covey that does not have a hag eye can create one...." That seems to me to be clear they can only have one, if they cannot create a second. The SRD has the same line. http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/hag.htm Edit: WOTC is allowed...

Wow, what a feud about the Radiant's powers...... Moving up about 20 posts or so, I am a bit leery of Sacred Fist, especially as you can qualify for it with a level of Monk and then four levels of Ranger, to keep your BAB as high as possible. Sure, you do not get the Improved Flurry, but with a...

If you are thinking of a published setting, by all means look at Eberron. It is a pretty broad world, and has a lot of odd thiings going on behind the scenes and in odd corners of the world. But it is just not for me. I don't like steampunk or magicpunk. I prefer more classical fantasy, sans...

I'm kinda suprrised how many games are out there. I live in Japan, and never get to browse the FLGS. Good to hear.

I don't actually fold any skills together, but I do allow similar ones to affect each other. Mainly for psionics. Use Magic Device can use psionic devices at a -2 penalty Use Psionic device vice versa Spellcraft can analyze psionics at a -2 penalty Psicraft is vice-versa for arcane and divine...

I think a party has to be built togetehr for optimal adventuring. In my face to face, we have a 3 player game, and use gestalt, so someone has to be of each archetype (though we skip arcane sometiems) so we end up negotiating one half of the gestalt, and hten when that is decided the otehr half...

I personally have no idea. It seem intersting, and a decent fighter/paladin crossbreed, but broken, I think no way!!1

For me it was the best club my elementary school had to offer. (A catholic school, to boot?) We did not do much there actually, but that caused me to ask a freind who did more, and then start learning with my little brother. Started DMing then, and have never really stopped.

Drizzit in the books was fine. I always thought him a bit uninspired, and I would have expected a bit more of his previous nature surfacing in his current life, but there was not much of that. Then again, it was a D&D novel, which tend to the simplistic anyway. Seond, he is an elf and I really...
