Wizard 3 caster level is class level. Paladin spell-casting level is class level/2. The Paladin-4's Smite Evil would deal +3 damage. The Paladin-4/Monk-7's Smite Evil would deal +3 damage; the Wholeness of Body ability would heal 12 hp; assuming a 12 or higher Cha, Lay on Hands would heal 3...

Don't forget that blind characters automatically fail any Spot checks. Ciao Dave

If instead it were a wizard (with his familiar on his shoulder) doing the withdraw action; would the familiar draw an attack of opportunity? Ciao Dave P.S. Also Kerbarian: The withdrawing horse and rider (A) would draw an attack of opportunity for the 2nd space it moved out of from the spiked...

I just happened on this thread today and (like normal) must comment. Great Work. I really like what you have done with them. The Far Realms seems the perfect place IMO. Now, to the nit-picking: 1.) The following slivers gain a 1 1/2 Str bonus to their claw attacks: Metallic, Muscle, Crypt...

I would like to start this by nominating DertyAngel's Void card for Best Image (Fantasy) and DertyAngel's Euryale for Best Character Illustration. Oh, BTW, can we nominate one for each category? I'll look around and see what else I like. Ciao Dave

Derty, Great job. I think the Gem works well in the set (that's the only one I hadn't yet seen). Good luck, too. Ciao Dave

Bolas use a normal ranged attack, not ranged touch. They can be used for trip attacks as normal trip attacks but no return trip if failed. They do subdual damage not lethal damage. I would say: let the barbed ones do piercing damage, can be used for trip attacks (use normal rules for trips) and...

The big thing that bothers me is that creation costs do not include any xp for the spells used to create the golems (which do cost: Limited Wish and Wish being the foremost). XP costs (for spells used) is a part of every other magic item formula. Ciao Dave

In the link provided by the OP, bolas state: Why did I go there? Because the other weapon: Barbed Bolas referred to a bolas: If the barbed bolas is like the bolas, except...; then rules are the same for both, except... Now these must be 3.0 rules or some other variant, but those are the...

Don't forget that the bolas only require a touch attack to hit (that is armor, shield, and natural armor do not count for AC). Can be used to make ranged trip attacks, easy hits, lethal damage, more lethal damage on the escape, high Str or Escape Artist DC to escape, and pin unless Reflex DC...

Actually, you run at x3 in heavy armor or carrying a heavy load and x4 otherwise (no armor, light armor, medium armor, light load, medium load). With the Run feat this increases to x4 in heavy armor or carrying a heavy load; x5 otherwise. Medium armor does not decrease the multiplier for run...

Isn't it strange that IRL police use the "kick in the door" method not because it is quieter but because it is quicker. I know this is House Rules but shouldn't there be a way to apply Power Attack to Strength checks? Especially since Strength checks seem to have no upper limit (scaling Strength...

Ram, Portable: This iron-shod wooden beam gives you a +2 circumstance bonus on Strength checks made to break open a door and it allows a second person to help you without having to roll, increasing your bonus by 2. Costs 10 gp and weighs 20 lb. Great normal item for a 20% bonus to opening doors...

I think Disintegration Chamber or something like it was in 2e Tome of Magic. Ciao Dave

Thanks, I thought that was the answer, but because of the way Str bonuses to damage are figured (x.5, x1, x1.5) are similar to Power Attack somehow it seemed wrong. Thanks for mentioning the x1.5 natural attack, I forgot about that and it makes the rule less counter-intuitive. Ciao Dave

This question has probably come up before; but if so, I missed it. Power Attack gives: 1.) 2 for 1 on two-handed weapons, one-handed weapons used in two hands and double weapons used as two-handed weapons. 2.) 1 for 1 on one-handed weapons, the one-handed end of double weapons, unarmed strikes...

This seems to say that the item gets its own save. The immune character doesn't need one and the item uses the character's bonuses. Of course this will quickly get silly as the fire immune character runs around naked because fire destroyed all his gear. or how about this: Do immune spells...

Actually, what you are calling Standard is the non-elite array. Standard is all 10's and 11's. Ciao Dave

I do not know which Dragon this was in, but I believe that the same writer also wrote a book on the subject for 3.0e. The book is called "Encyclopaedia Arcane Crossbreeding: Flesh and Blood" by Johnathan Richards. There are no Prestige classes in the book; but the book contains complete rules...

But then, think of the creatures with no Constitution score. Should it really be possible for them to "concentrate" using their Charisma score? Isn't it beyond belief that personality rather than stamina would allow successful casting of spells in stressful situations? If one stat (Charisma) can...
