Though you can channel though a reach weapon for a little bit of range. That plus the ability to use Dimension Hop on opponents will often catch players off guard. :]

Thanks for the links, those are excellent discussions on the matter.

Following the "guidelines" in the DMG, I came up with 6200gp for an item that added +4 to Heal and let you cast Cure Serious Wounds once per day. It just seems more likely that they meant 7500gp rather than 750gp. But heck, if it's right I guess I shouldn't complain - I should just rush down to...

Since it Potion of Cure Serious Wounds (which does far less than this belt, and only once - ever) costs 750gp, I'm thinking that this item is incorrectly priced. On the other hand there is eratta out for the Magic Item Compendium and no correction is listed. Does the price seem low to you? If...

On player character used Prestidigitation to soil another's armor (while they were wearing it). I would likely have allowed a save (the armor being an attended object) but I can't figure out what "see text" is refering to in the spell description. With this uber cantrip also cutting through...

I would say that the egg itself is not evil. The creature inside may be, but the Paladin does not have line of effect to the creature. (And actually, I would say the creature inside is neutral until it actually has a chance to take evil actions - assuming it doesn't have some sort of strong...

SRD: Are there any Enchantment(Compulsion) effects taht are not Enchantment(Charm) effects? I guess there must be or the 3.5 FAQ reading doesn't make sense...

Our group was rather surprised to find out (mid-combat) that Protection from Evil does not work vs confusion. Our DM ruled (and the majority agreed) that it did not grant the caster mental control over the subject and so was not supressed. But since 5 of the 6 of us (all long-time players) were...

For what it's worth, we have a house rule in our game: "A spear can be wielded one-handed as a martial weapon". It works out pretty well - making spears good but not like spiked chains or anything :)

Thanks for that link to the pictures - those really are nice looking. I hope that they put out enough to produce a good variety map types (I've about used the minins battle maps in my campaign :) ). Someone who has used these tiles - are they rigid enough to use on their own or do they need a...

Congratulations, and that's not a bad rule system for someone starting out. A little subjective, but for a beginner that's probably preferable to long tomes filled with arcane formulae and exeptions for all occassions :D Good luck with the campaign!

Thanks for the help! That Savage Progressions article even has a tiefling -> half fiend example: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/sp/20040319a Just to be clear, the character who takes these transition levels gets no hit points, BAB or saves increase, etc.. They ONLY get the things...

Suppose you have a half-fiend character (ECL 4) in a group of normal folks. When everyone else in the party is level 10, would the half-fiendish character be 4 levels behind everyone else, or would he just be 10,000 xp behind eveyone else (because it takes 10,000 xp to go from start to level...

If a target enters a cloud, fog, or similar area of effect that requires a fort save, and then he leaves it, and then he re-enters it, does he get a new fort save? The spell that raised this issue was the warlock incantation "Miasmic cloud" from Complete Arcane. The description says that...

Well, I'm sure it will be out by then end of A year - though I doubt it will be this one. :\

If you have the Quick Draw feat, can you later put your weapon away as a free action? I thought that you could, but when it came up at the table, I could not find any ruling on it. Is this from an obsure source, or am I just misremembering (wouldn't be the first time)?

How do you handle the case where an incapacitated person wakes up in a square with an enemy standing over them? Are they automatically "squeezing", does the waking person automatically move to the closest open square? Or is it somethng different. An while I'm here, if a character has 5ft reach...

Thanks for the replies. That's a good idea about Tumble. My mage has 1 rank in Tumble so that gives the bird at least some chance (with his +3 Dex).

Suppose that I have a hawk (tiny familiar) and want to cast Chill Touch for it to use (over multiple rounds) on an orc while I wade into melee and beat on the orc with my staff. The hawk has a space of 2 1/2 ft and a reach of zero, so it has to enter the orc's square to attack. I understand...

I'm making up a new character (5th level bard) and would like to use a heavy repeating crossbow. My main concern is the 5 shot-limit on the magazine (and it taking a full round action to replace that thing). Are there ways to get around that, or increase the size of the magazine? I'm concerned...
