    Are Earth Elementals Blind in stone?

    Just give 'em Tremorsense. *shrug* Granted, that means high level druids will also get it while WS'ed into an EE, but whatever. Calypso

    Expertise/Chink in the Armor worth it?

    Thanks for da bump :) Unfortunately, this is a strictly 3.0 game, anything from CW is out. Elusive Target IS really nice though. Calypso

    Phantom Steed: what can it do?

    Okay, first, the most direct question: Can a flying creature run? "A creature can use the run action while flying, provided it flies in a straight line." So, anything that has a fly speed can run. Now, the indirect question: Can a Phantom Steed run? Since the spell says it conjures a...

    Dragon Breath Q?

    Nope, I'm at work so I can't provide a reference. You can see here though: http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/combatStatistics.htm#savingThrows In particular: "A natural 1 (the d20 comes up 1) on a saving throw is always a failure (and may cause damage to exposed items; see Items Surviving...

    Dragon Breath Q?

    His items are only in danger if he rolled a natural 1 on his save. Calypso

    Mithral Towershield?

    Can you have a mithral towershield? I know the entry for towershield says that it's made of wood, and that mithral only applies to things made primarily of metal. But... consider why a tower shield is wood. Because one made of metal would weigh far too much, right? But one made of mithral...

    Expertise/Chink in the Armor worth it?

    Hey guys, I play (3.0) a level 10 (11 ECL) Tiefling Rogue. I'm wondering if it's worth it to use my next two feats to acquire Chink in the Armor (and then probably Improved Disarm at 18)? It sounds great on paper, but the fact that it's a standard action hurts. Right now, I have: 1: Weapon...

    Need input on feat selection

    Yeah, I want a tower shield because I picture: Us facing a dragon, obviously outmatched. A fallen comrade is about to get toastie-o'd by the dragon's breath. I, ducked behind my tower shield, make my way to them, the dragon's flames buffeting ineffectually against my shield. I pick them up...

    Need input on feat selection

    Hmm, I'm not really sure. I think Dragonlance is fairly low magic, but that's just what I've gathered from others. I've never read the books nor played in a DL game. Also... apparently using a tower shield imposes a -2 attack penalty? Is it really worth the +2 shield bonus (compared to heavy...

    Need input on feat selection

    Hmm, that is a good point. I had planned to use a longsword and tower shield. Maybe I should also have a buckler, just in case. And... I dunno. Why is Craft Magic Arms & Armor not worth taking? So, what if I drop Power Attack (I don't think it's useful with a longsword) and Divine Might...

    Need input on feat selection

    We can use the Core Books, DRCS, and select feats from the Complete Books. I also like the idea of taking Ride-by Attack and Spirited Charge... I'm just having a lot of trouble deciding. Calypso

    Need input on feat selection

    The build will be 4 Cleric/2 Fighter/1 Knight of the Crown/3 Knight of the Sword/10 Knight of the Rose We're starting at level 4, so I'm starting at 3 Cleric/1 Fighter. I didn't really mention the build because I don't know how familiar most of you guys are with Dragonlance PrC. Calypso

    Need input on feat selection

    Hey guys, I was looking for some input on my feat selection. I won't go into my full build unless you guys want. He's basically a battlefield commander... a mounted knight (with the war and strength domains) self/party buffer. By the end of the build he'll have CL 17 and BAB 18. We're starting...

    Critique my Knight of Solamnia?

    Well, I see him as a battlefield commander, that keeps his troops up and strong, but is more than willing to wade into battle himself. That is... a combat buffer, and sometimes healer. I wish I had more feats to play with, but ah well. The generally idea is that just before/during combat, I...

    Critique my Knight of Solamnia?

    Oh. Did I not post enough information, or is my build just nearly perfect? :D Calypso

    Critique my Knight of Solamnia?

    Well... at least maybe someone can answer this: is it worth three feats to get Extra Turning, Divine Metamagic, and Extend Spell?
