    Anything wrong with this build (other than the DM said no)

    I was messing around with some character concepts when I found this combo of feats: EWP (Bastard Sword) Monkey Grip EWP (heavy weapons) (from Magic of Faerun) The Monkey grip allows you to hold a large sized version in the same way you hold the regular sized version, or in this case a Large...

    Need Help - Divine Vigor

    I think it really depends on the DM's playing style. My group has had to learn what the DM does in combat, how he handles skills, which ways his rulings fall...etc. If tHP is so important in your campaign (I can't really know why, but I'll guess) maybe you're giving them too many surprise...

    New Spell: Watery Prison

    4th level, do you really think so? The way I see it the spell is only effective if there is only one enemy left. By the time the spell comes into effect that last enemy would've been easily overtaken anyway by the remaining PCs. Still, how does it look now? (I edited the first post)

    Elseworlds D&D 4th Edition

    I read it, it was interesting. I'll say this though; 3rd edition was so foriegn from 2nd that I was completely blown away. What you proposed is too familiar. But who knows what 4th ed. will be like?

    Dash's Glib Response

    I like it. I'm taking it. Does Dash have a line of these spells? Do you have an NPC named Dash who wouldn't mind being in the Forgotton Realms?

    drowning a Fire elemental

    I'm trying to create a new spell (it's in the house rules forum; http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=101487) and an interesting point was brought up. Do creatures made of fire suffer any ill effects from being submersed in normal water? I looked around a little, and I didn't find...

    New Spell: Watery Prison

    Hawken, thanks for your review. Here are my answers to your questions: I'm not going to just say what level I think it should be at. It seems you still have some work to do on this spell. Some things that you might want to clear up are: --School of magic: I changed the school to Conjuration...

    New Spell: Watery Prison

    I'd like to know what level you think this spell should be at, I'm hoping for something low though, like 3rd... Watery Prison Conjuration (creation) [water] Level: Sor/Wiz 4 Components:V,S Casting time: 1 Full round Range: medium Target: 1 Creature Large sized or smaller Duration: Concentration...

    For the sake of adventure

    I know how you feel. My friends begged me, so I'm DMing an "evil" campaign (as it is, only one PC is evil, but we're working on that :D ) and I have a hard time convincing them to work together let alone go on an adventure. They actually looked the plot hook right in the face, metagamed that...

    Help with a Character Idea

    I want to make a Fighter/Wizard. We're playing in FR, and I'm looking towards the Eldritch Knight PRC. Human, 28 point-buy. I like the idea of using Arcane Strike from the Complete Warrior, and seeing that the bonus provided by that feat lasts all round and applies to all attacks, so...

    Double Weapon Power attack

    I have a question that may have been answered before, so sorry. Do I get the 2 for 1 power attack ratio when weilding a double weapon (for example the 2-bladed sword). From the SRD: Table: Two-Weapon Fighting Penalties Circumstances Primary Hand Off Hand Normal penalties...

    blinking questions

    Ok, so this is from the SRD, so if there are any errors blame WOTC. Anyway here is the relevent data: You strike as an invisible creature (with a +2 bonus on attack rolls), denying your target any Dexterity bonus to AC. So that is why you can sneak attack. So if your opponent can see...

    Paladin Mounts in Armor (among other things)

    About Grappling. I think that you can have a mount rear back and then force an opponent to the ground. That wouldn't be so out of the ordinary to have a warhorse stand on someone. Thanks for the other feat ideas.

    Paladin Mounts in Armor (among other things)

    I was writing up the stats on my friend's new mount, when something occured to me, do mounts suffer non-proficiency penelties when wearing armor? And finally, the mount get's feats every three HD (because it's a magical beast) so what would be some good ideas? Can we give it power attack? how...

    Modern House Rules... what are yours?

    I modified the base classes slightly. I thought that the strong hero had the ideal balance of level dependent bonuses (such as defence, bab, and skill points) and that the fast hero was a little too good and everything else was a little too bad (especially the charismatic hero). I modified...

    Is sunder _this_ easy?

    The only problem I'd see in it is that the giants might not be that intelligent. Hill are only 6, most of the rest are 10 or 12. How do the giants know that the bags and quivers they're striking at are magical at all? Even if they're going on past experiance they'd have no way to tell which...

    How far do your players go to accomodate a new character?

    I go all the way Dude, I didn't even read your post; I just integrated an entire theiving network complete with a hundred year history, and three major NPCs for this newguy because he wanted that kind of thing in my game. DMing isn't about you having fun, or power (heh, power IS nice tho..)...

    Hey Vindicator whatever happened to your paladin?

    I don't want to 'open up that can of worms again,' but was there a final result? Did the 30+ pages of argueing contribute anything? Will you next character be a CE fighter/cleric just for spite?

    The 3 point plot

    my own plot design I usually daydream of some kind of cool situation that I'd like to se the PCs in, and work from there; for example in my last game I wanted to try out elite worg riding goblins, so first I made the goblins, then I playtested them by myself and found in what situations they...
