    Need help with Archivist build

    Ok, I've taken some time to think things over, and have come to the following conclusion: I would like, at the very least, to have all the Archivist abilities. Which means 14 levels of archivist (I missed the lvl 14 option earlier) This means I have at most 6 levels to spend on something else...

    Using other materials with Dark Sun

    The Walker in the waste capstone ability allows you to turn yourself into a Dry Lich. (after which, according to most rulings I read, you get the Level Adjustment that comes with it). It also allows you to create Sand Golems and Salt mummies. It seems to fit rather well with the Silt...

    Using other materials with Dark Sun

    We're preparing to play a 3.5 Dark Sun campaign using the rules from www.athas.org once our current campaign ends. While researching possible character options, I ran into the following problem: Athas has no gods. Instead, clerics are 'powered' from elemental or para-elemental planes. This...

    Master of Radiance

    But they don't mention cleric (except for the example). My other remarks still stand. I haven't asked my DM yet because I would like to discuss it here first. Also, I'm not 100% sure about my prc choices, so I'd like to avoid starting a pointless debate with him. For me, discussing it here...

    Master of Radiance

    I have two arguments against that: Other prc's that do not grant turn undead and do not require turn undead as a prerequisite speciffically state they do not grant turn undead The class fluff states it is designed for druids. That both the example and the example npc use cleric as a base...

    Master of Radiance

    I've been looking for a prestige class that would give me Turn Undead without requiring me to be of a Good alignment. I ran into the Master of Radiance from Libris Mortis in several listings, but always accompanied by 'unclear whether it grants turn undead'. I have been unable to find any FAQ...

    D&D 5E (2014) A Simple Solution to the Saving Throw and other Math Problems

    While I appreciate the balanced scaling, an even more simple solution would be to add no bonus at all. The mechanical effect is the same. You just don't get improvements. Of course, this would also mean you can't have monsters with higher attacks etc.

    Need help with Archivist build

    I guess I have become accustomed to base classes that don't offer anything but spellcasting and little to no other options to keep you invested in the class. And, to be honest, although the Archivist gets something on almost every level, after level 11 he only gets 'extra uses' of Dark Knowledge...

    Need help with Archivist build

    No, as I said, I'd like to avoid multiclassing.

    Need help with Archivist build

    I'm currently working on an Archivist build, and I could use some help. I'm starting at lvl 9, and got the following worked out: Race: Lesser Thiefling Alignment: Lawful Neutral Stats (after racial adjustment and bonuses at 4 and 8 ) : STR 8 DEX 15 CON 9 INT 20 WIS 18 CHA 12 Feats: 1...

    D&D 3.x Need a program/spreadsheet/calculator/something to build custom 3.5 monsters from scratch

    Pcgen ( pcgen.org ) allows you to create your own dataset. Learning how to write those has a learning curve though.

    Planar Touchstone object weight

    The Planar Touchstone Feat requires an object of at least 250 gp value associated with the Planar Touchstone Site. (it is unclear whether this item disappears when you select a site or you should carry it with you. I'm opting for the latter) When listing my equipment, I found that the reference...

    Bracers that stack?

    Even when it stacks with everything, it doesn't stack with itself.

    Quill of Scribing (complete Mage)

    Ok, I get that I should decipher the spell first. Read magic should take care of that. Spellcraft check shouldn't be a problem. But would you allow the scribing into the spellbook part be done by the Quill?

    Quill of Scribing (complete Mage)

    Some questions about this magic item: -Can you also use the Quill to write spells in your spellbook? (if not by RAW, would you allow it?) -Could you write scrolls using this skill while camping in the wild? -Scribing a scroll takes '1 day' per 1000 gp. How much time does it take the Quill to...

    Divine Sorcerer

    One of my player is currently considering changing over from Demons to Celestial beings because the rest of the party doesn't want him to summon demons.... The class is actually supposed to be two classes in one, and I will allow him to switch over without too much problems. My idea is that the...

    Divine Sorcerer

    I have created a homebrew version of the Sorcerer, who can change his known spells by negotiating with a demon, treating a select list of specific demons as 'spellbooks'. Replacing a known spell takes one day per spell level. (this is a build in personal version of the retraining rules specific...

    Planar Touchstone feat, Catalogues of Enlightenment, Kobold domain power

    I am considering 'picking up the slack' (no rogue in the party) by taking the Planar Touchstone feat, linking it to the Catalogues of Enlightenment, and picking up the Kobold domain power. That would give me the Trapfinding Class feature and add Search and Disable Device to my class skills...

    Archivist utility spells

    I'm currently working on an Archivist build. I plan to make him Knowledge and Utility focussed. I can start at lvl 9. This means I have some money to throw around equipping my character with the spells I really want. I noticed the group has no rogue, and I was wondering which (divine) spells...
