    Called shots

    Not to disagree with SKR, but doesn't D&D have a NEED for called shots? Take the Vampire. There are only a few ways to kill one, and of those ways one is a wooden stake through the heart. How do you arbitrate a shot to the heart without a called shot rule? (Our group house ruled that it is a...

    Summoning Monsters

    How so? Just pick up the augement summoning feat (or some such)? Or are there other things that make you truly "specialized" It's too late for me to become a specialist Conjurer... so are there other things I can do to make my summons better? BTW. Thanks all for the help.

    Summoning Monsters

    Thanks for all the info guys! It sounds like if I can pick up the spell now is not a bad time... but that I should definitely be looking at it in the next few levels as my CL increases. I had already been thinking of the flanking bonus use. I hadn't considered the use of the badger (being able...

    Summoning Monsters

    I'm running a 5th level Mage and do not have any summon monster spells. I've always been of the oppinion that a good single shot offensive spell (magic missile) was better... but I'm slowly chaning my mind. So, I'm considering investing in some Summoning spells. What are the advantages to the...

    Item Pricing with Alternate Spellcasting Rules

    My group is using the Alternate Metamagic Rules presented in Unearthed Arcana. They are treated as spontaneous effects that can only be applied three times a day (p152). However, they do not take up spell slots of higher level. So an Empowered Magic Missile is still a first level spell, you can...

    Great Villain Showdown: 4th Round [Results Posted]

    4rd Round 1. Hannibal Lecter -- I don't like Lecter as a villian, nothing to it... just a personal feeling. HOWEVER, I don't think that HAL was malicious; he was just misguided. 2. Darth Vader -- Vader all the way. He defined "bad guy" for much of my childhood. 3. Khan Noonian Singh -- CURSE...

    Help increase Save DC's

    I like the idea of altering a magic item like the psionic one. I also like the Heighten Metamagic, b/c we're using the Unearthed Arcana alternate rule on metamagics, so I won't have to spend higher slots for the spell... though, I'll only get to use it a few times per day. Has anyone had any...

    Help increase Save DC's

    I'm definitely NOT opposed to using PrC to gain the boost. I hadn't looked at Fatespinner -- have to check that one out thanks.

    Help increase Save DC's

    I'm looking for a host of ways to increase the save DCs on my wizard's spells: Obviously there's Spell Focus and Greater SF. But those only grant +2 and it's got to be to a certain school of magic. So, you could be spending quite a few feats to really beef up the DC's of your wizard. Is this...

    Advancing famaliars

    I had a similar question to this thread, so I figured I'd piggy-back. It's clear that familiars don't gain feats or more skill points b/c they don't gain new levels or hit dice. However, they DO gain more intelligence. SOooo... do they gain more skill points as a result of their intelligence...
