Average hit points for a fighter his level should be: 37+ con bonus... not 19+ con bonus. Can you see where a character that spent points on con might be dissapointed that he is going to die because of bad rolls? What if the mage rolled 9 for intelligence... would you say, deal with it? In...

Yep did the math wrong on that one, but still... you guys get the point :)

Ahhh no I didn't... I again comment on your reading ability, and now start to question your comprehension level. You obviously have trouble reading the ELH and seeing that similar examples exist. You clearly don't understand how to add as far as the ELH is concerned if you somehow add +2130 to...

Ok, having read through 5 pages of this now... I currently became a lich on a campaign I play in. It went well with story, and was sort of an assassination plot against my good cleric by an evil character. Now that I am a lich, we get along much better, and can work much easier to accomplish...

Another comment... why on earth would I care if you would take the spell? Does your approval of it for your character somehow make it a valid spell? I specifically mentioned what and who I was replying to and commenting on. Someone asked what it would take to make a "uber death spell" I said...

That is I am afraid incorrect. Weather is the mitigating effect here not slay. The spell is stylized and funtions like a weather affect, in fact, make it... Rains ash, lose one level per minute instead. Rain of fire works the same exact way, I just happen to have it draining a level instead of...

Ok, so I realize either people here are bad at math or just don't get it. Lets look at epic spells just one more time. Someone asked how much it would take to destroy the world. Well lets see: I will start with a mage, 22nd level. 25 ranks spell craft 30 intelligence with items and wish. +10...

Mine works fine all it doesn't do is divide by the number of players for you. http://www.valdier.com/backup/monsterFinder

I think sometimes people just lack the basic ability to read. We are talking about armor spikes... not gloves or gauntlets. Also, the great thing about defending items working when you aren't using them, take a whole stack of useless defending items and just "have" them to stack the bonus AC...

so no full defense? So then a person taking a full defense option couldn't use the weapon right? A person taking a partial defense action could though? So if you are truly interested in only defending yourself, you can't, but if you half ass try to stay alive you can? :)

That is a possibility also Geoff, other than CE's <1 I have the formula working now, I could do CR's < 1 if I had any desire to actually spend the 30 minutes it would take to add the if/elses and update the database :)

Well... I will see what I can do... biggest problem is having to emulate my own DB for doing searches of the data, I will see what I can come up with although it will be a while. Have to convert it to a swing app instead of a JSP/web app.

reply to Leopold 'now if only there were a way to add in manual CR's and come out with the total. I LOVE the breakdown of xp by classes. Is there a way to space it out even more? LIke get a chart from 1-10 and than go forward to 11-20?' I'm not sure exactly what you mean by this... do you...

reply to Dvvega '1) your monster list "screws up" under certain conditions ... ' Should be fixed now... it was an early thing I had in there when I was still adding "features" now the list for whatever you searched for "should stay" and should stay in the same sort order you had. I know the...

Ok, here we go... This is the latest version, not handling EL < 1. Didn't take too much, just another if/else. As a note, I am destroying the object each time rather than caching it because it makes debugging 100x easier. I will start caching all the data once I am sure everything works right...

Valdier Sorry I hadn't replied earlier, I actually figured once I corrected myself that nobody would look at the thread again :) Glad to see people are doing so. One major thing I need to do with this is the CR < 1 calculations... that is a real pain. When I wrote the EL calculations I...

Ok, so here is the final formula I used for determining EL's in case anyone cares :) (Note it is in java) public static Integer calculate(ArrayList list){ int current; int next; int temp; while(list.size() > 1){ java.util.Collections.sort(list); current =...

Ok so after sleeping and talking to a friend I realized half of what I am doing is a waste of time :) I will post my final formula here when I am done.

I am currently working on a monster database with a web front end... I have gotten to the point where I am mostly finished with my 1.0 design... The final stage I am at is generating an estimated EL for an unlimited number of monsters. I am currently thinking something along these lines. (no...
