    How is the Wizard vs Warrior Balance Problem Handled in Fantasy Literature?

    No they don't violate the laws of physics. An Action films physics work differently than real world physics. (Though often there are mook rules in place so the protagonist is superhuman compared to mooks) In a fantasy world there are completely different "physics" at work. In 3.5 there are no...

    How is the Wizard vs Warrior Balance Problem Handled in Fantasy Literature?

    Ah you're interpreting hitpoints wrong. A hit in D&D != a dead on hit. Hitpoints do not represent wound points. from D20srd.org from Hit Points And You Jonathan Drain’s D20 Source: Dungeons & Dragons Blog What you are talking about should be compared to a Fighter using the wound/vitality...

    How is the Wizard vs Warrior Balance Problem Handled in Fantasy Literature?

    I think you define "get hit" differently for the real SEAL and the fantasy Fighter. Hitpoints != wound points Also how about comparing the fantasy fighter to Bruce Willis in Die Hard ? The main difference between realistic real world characters and fantasy characters is that the fantasy...

    How is the Wizard vs Warrior Balance Problem Handled in Fantasy Literature?

    Huh? When did this thread derail into an NPC vs PC thread? The different rules have very different takes on this. If you run 1E or 2E you have those 0-level people which to me do not make much sense. 4E has reintroduced them via the mooks rules. In effect when you need an NPCs to have an...

    Some questions about PF from a non-PF player.

    Also the online SRDs are darn handy, and paizo added the material from APG very quickly, and the d20pfsrd contains even more open content from many different books.

    Giant Owl Familiar

    I see 2 possibilities: 1. Improved Familiar feat + Giant Owl. A Giant Owl is CR3 similar to the Ice Memphit, so it should be available at level 7. See also the http://www.enworld.org/forum/d-d-legacy-discussion/250716-3-5-improved-familiar-rules.html thread. 2. Figurine of Wondrous Power ...

    Some questions about PF from a non-PF player.

    As for 3.5 compatability, you can certainly use modules and supplements, but I would hesitate including PC rules (feats, prestige classes) from 3.5. PF Core and APG have loads of feats, classes, options some of them quite new in concept. In general, there is so much PC material between Core...

    Some questions about PF from a non-PF player.

    As for monster design, there's been some work done. Templates and rules tend to be simpler in general and there's a new template type: simple templates. There are also a few 3PP products that offer more simple templates. Check out the online SRD for a glimpse of the rules: Paizo site...

    Ebon Dwarves

    Oh wait. That was all said in a 3.5 context above. For PF if you use Golarion, Drow are a bit different. There's a secret to their race, check out the Lantern Bearer's secret society's fluff: Lantern Bearers - Golarion World Wiki Half-Drow in Golarion
