IMC I have a player with a Githzerai monk 4/Psychic Warrior 6/Zerth Cenobite 4. In trying to figure out his manifester level I ran into a problem. The Zerth Cenobite does not say that zerth cenobite level is manifester level or half zerth cenobite level is manifester level or anything like that...

Polymorph spells are not bonuses or penalties, yet they are covered in this set of rules. Chill Metal and Heat Metal cast on the same character are not bonuses or penalties yet this interaction is covered by this set of rules. Ciao Dave

The only place where this interaction is described is the magic item descriptions of bag of holding and portable hole: WoTC means that, other than these; it is up to the DM. Ciao Dave

Here is one such example from the dread necromancer class from Heroes of Horror: How specific is this ability compared to the feat? Ciao Dave

In the case of the wizard: Why would this apply to the duskblade? It is not a class that has Never mind how it applies to wizards; it does not apply to duskblades. Period. Ciao Dave

Maybe the dispel only takes out the doorway, leaving those inside with no way out until someone again casts MMM, plane shifts, gates, or uses other teleport descriptor spells to exit. Ciao Dave

When the Extra Spell feat originally came out (Tome and Blood, 3.0, no duskblades, no warmages) it was paired with another feat called Extra Slot. The Extra Spell feat was mainly for spontanious casters, allowing them to get another spell to choose from without having to gain more levels. The...

My count is 604. (plus, for my campaign I also include the spells from the Divine and Psionic sections of the SRD: 20 more [12 divine, 8 psionic]). Detect, Protection from, Magic Circle against, Dispel (Good, Evil, Chaos, Law). Ciao Dave

This says entering an occupied square provokes an attack of opportunity not the normal leaving a threatened square. Entering the square is the provoke, not leaving a threatened square. This is another special case of attacks of opportunity; the only one allowed to Tiny or smaller creatures. I...

An off the wall thought just occured to me: If another creature (three or more sizes larger) enters the square occupied by the Tiny cat, does the cat get an attack of opportunity? It would seem so even though the cat does not threaten the squares around it, it does still threaten the square it...

The Zerth Cenobite in the Complete Psionic has a supernatural ability called Temporal Distillation that enables him to gain an extra Move action at 1st level that increases to an extra Standard action at 4th level and increases again finally to an extra full round action (or a Move action and a...

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought that two-handed weapons made for a creature one size larger than the intended user were unusable by that user. Huge Weapon Categories: Light = One-Handed for Large [-2] (or Medium with powerful build [-2]) One-Handed = Two-Handed for Large [-2] (or Medium with...

I don't think frankthedm meant double the crit multiplier. Instead he said increase it one step: x2=x3, x3=x4, x4=x5. (x7 Sheesh!) Ciao Dave

Why not give the pitiful rogue Power Attack too (Str 18)? Change the weapon to Spear (1d8 x3) two-handed. This is more optimal than the rapier for damage output. 13.5 (3d8 avg.) + 18 (1.5 * Str * 3) + 12 (PA for 2, from charging, * 3) = 43.5 before Sneak attack of 28 avg. (8d6) = 71.5 avg...

Tumbling is at half speed (halved again for difficult terrain) and increases the DCs by 2 or more (or one square is 20 ft.). Or you can move at full speed tumbling (halved for difficult terrain) by taking a -10 to your check. So, Tumbling works if you spend your whole move on one square (at +2...

Since it is needed for some of the class abilities, require two-three metamagic feats instead of Manyshot and Rapid Shot. You could either name specific metamagic feats (Reach Spell, Enlarge Spell, Still Spell, or Silent Spell) needed or just that the character must have at least two. As for...

It seems to suggest that bards could benefit from the Improved Familiar feat if they have at least one level of wizard or sorcerer (and their bardic levels count towards gaining the familiar). Still the bard levels would not count for purposes of the familiar special abilities. Ciao Dave

Don't forget that the minotaur also has the Scent ability, which along with the Track feat and the Natural Cunning ability should allow them to track anything anywhere even without any ranks in Survival. Their non-adjusted Wisdom score is all that is needed for a Tracking check; and Scent...

As DM I would permanently polymorph him into a wyrmling copper dragon (5HD, LA+2), remove all his half-dragon abilities and all his racial abilities, give him the dragon racial abilities and traits for wyrmling age category (size Tiny, no threat range, no AoO, draws an AoO to attack in melee...

A similar comparison between Ray of Light and Power Word Blind yields similar results. Ciao Dave
