    Druid help (Help me, a poor n00b to the Druid)

    I also had a Druid character, an evil Gnome who rode around on his wolf animal companion. I agree with others sugestions for Track and Craft Wand. Druids have afew spells spells that are useful in just about nay situation. A wand of Entagle, or Obscuring Mist, Flaming Sphere, or wven Speak with...

    Playing a Ranger

    Originally posted by Dr. Zoom: I disagree with this. Even a Ranger with mediocre Int can and should have better skills than anyone except a Rogue. I always play characters with decent Intelligence and as much diversity as possible in skills. My experience has been that acharacter is more...

    New Core Class, Very Open-ended [Opinions Please]

    Agree with what others have posted; change Adventurer Bonus to Special Abilities and list the bonus feats. Also you may want to delay the Bonus feats by 1 level so that they don't get two feats every 3rd level and so their is less incentive to just take the class for one level. dump the...

    Yet Another Alternative Ranger

    You say you want the class to be more versatile, so give them a better selection of feats. How about Skill Focus, Run, Mounted Combat, Lightning Reflexes, Great Fortitude, Iron Will. Blind-Fight seems obvious as one of their class abilities improves greatly if they have the Blind-Fight feat...

    My Alt Ranger, back from the blender!!!

    This version is better than your previous one, just a few critiques... Sentinal and Awareness should be combined or replaced with Uncanny Dodge. Perhaps you didn't want to use an ability that Rogues and Barbarians have, but I think it better represents a constant awareness of ones...

    Alternative Ranger

    You've got some nice ideas but they aren't implimented very well. To truly make the Ranger versatile, give bonus feats instead of "Special Techniques." Insead of 2 bonus feats at one level, give 1 at 1st and another at 2nd. Also, I've always though that a Ranger should be able to mix and...

    Rangers and PrCs

    I didn't mean a straight Ranger, but a multiclassed spellcaster/Ranger. I am specifically looking at the Witch Hunter PrC from Oriental Adventures. Right now I am a 2nd level Ranger about to multiclass into Wizard. The PrC is a least 5 or 6 levels off, and I don't necessarily plan on applying...

    Rangers and PrCs

    Can a multiclassed Ranger who takes levels in a spellcaster Prestige Class apply his "+1 to an existing class" to Ranger if he can't yet cast Ranger spells? The way I understand the rules is that if he is at least 4th level, the character can apply the "+1 to an existing class" to his Ranger...

    What skill would you use...

    What skill is used for imitating a voice or mimicking a sound like a bird call ora a dog's bark? My guess would be that it is either Disguise or Bluff, but I think the case could also be made for Perform or Wilderness Lore.

    How would you balance the Aristocrat with PC classes at 1st level?

    I believe their is an Aristocrat PC class in the Rokogun book. Also, someone above already suggested the Star Wars noble. I assume you've talked it over already with your DM. If your only taking the class for 1 or a few levels, or if the DM gives you opportunities to use your status to your...

    "Rules: Saiyans" by Anubis

    Hae you written up any other classes or races based on DBZ? I would really like to see a Namekian race.

    "Rules: Saiyans" by Anubis

    I think your saiyan race is WAY too powerful. Just curious, but what would be their ECL? Probably too high to make them useful as player characters. The basic problem that I see is that you are creating a race that accounts for all the cool powers and abilities possesed by characters of the...

    Immaculate Monks. Exalted -> D&D.

    I've played around with a similar idea although I personally think the Monk class is far less flawed than some of the other classes. My suggestion; instead of having five different classes, have something like clerical domains. Each Path would have a coresponding alignment, grant addional...

    New rendition of the Inquisitor (Comments very welcome)

    I think this version is alot better defined and more wel-rounded than the last one. Just 2 suggestions: The wording on Favored Arcanum is a little unclear. Is that a +1 to all saving throws or only saves vs. a specific school? Also when Favored Arcanum improves does he acquire an additional...

    Looking for a good Mage Hunter Core Class

    A few suggestions: Change the Favored Arcanum from a bonus to skills vs. wizards from a specific school to a bonus to saves vs. spell school. How about an ability that makes it easier for them to disrupt someone casting a spell, like the opposite of combat casting. It raises the DC for the...

    New Feat: Undersea tracking

    Tracking a single creature underwater is very different from determinig direction by currents and ocean swells. The scent ability is, I think a far better real world representation of "Tracking" a creature underwater.

    New Feat: Undersea tracking

    In Masters of the Wild, their is a feat that grants you the scent ability. I think the main requirement is that you be able to Wildshape into a Wolf so you pretty much have to be a Druid to take it. I suggest that you make a feat based on the Scent ability that has no Wildhape requirement and...

    New Feat: Undersea tracking

    Several problems I have with this feat: It requires that one be a native water inhabitant which makes it practically useless to almost everyone. It is physically impossible and thus should be a spell-like ability or supernatural ability. My suggestion would be to make the scent feat/ability a...

    What can be done with the monk that will make the class more versatile?

    Rasyr, I like your martial arts system. It allows maximum flexibility and customization. I would however be very reluctant to introduce a totally new game mechanic that is only of use for unarmed combat. Have you considered similar options for melee fighters? combat with ranged weapons? two...

    What can be done with the monk that will make the class more versatile?

    I disagree as the Multiclass Fighter type/Monk would not only have a better BAB when fighting unarmed, but would also have a better BAB when fighting with Monk weapons. In my opinion, this makes the Fighter/Monk too powerful and infringes too much on the single-class Monk. As for the idea of...
