You make it sound like there is only one person, a fighter, in this adventuring party. I thought the standard was to expect a fighter, thief, cleric and magic-user? If we go with that, the fighter goes into meat shield mode and protects the cleric and magic user who proceed to turn the weapon...

Sure, your "bane bow" is interesting to you right now, but that is mostly from the fact that it is unusual. If every weapon did that or something similar you would consider it boring as well. The problem of +1 magic weapons being boring comes from +1 magic weapons being the norm. If...

A +1 to hit and damage or +1 to AC is not inherently boring. They become boring when players start assuming that they and their opponents will have them. My point is that using inherent bonuses is not in fact removing the bonuses received; it is covering them with a cloth and saying let's...

"Inherent bonuses" are just magic weapon and item benefits relocated and dressed up differently. The +x equipment is still there it is just invisible and can not be removed. It is also possible to run pre-3.X editions of D&D magic item free without having to hide where the bonus are coming...

Such as surviving atmospheric reentry naked.

They actually did. Even as late as second edition, due to magical items not being guaranteed, finding even a +1 dagger or a quiver with a dozen +1 arrows was a semi-major event.

The wording used is "passed through" implying that just sticking your hand, or better yet a 10' pole, in does nothing.

Shun Green if you can, but night's good color is for those of great valor. Those two lines are what a lot of contention is based around, the second part especially. While the first part is still relatively easy to understand, avoid messing with things that are colored green unless you have...

You are going off of the hardcopy green version correct? I'm looking at the pink .pdf version. If I understand right the pink version is the 1978 original "AD&D" publication and the green cover is the 1981 reprint.

One thing of note about area 3 is that in the description of the area it implies that there is a point marked 'B' on the map and if the characters study the floor up to this point 'B' they will magically learn the message. The problem comes when you look at the map and see that there is no point...

Last possible answer I have is a .

You are partially correct. You are correct that hybrid vigor does not always happen, and hybrids being averages of their parents or even weaker than their parents happens just as much, but you are wrong on why it happens. Heterosis does not need narrow gene pools that have recessive genes...

A or possibly a ?

That was something added in later updates and revisions, like or , after people started using destructive problem solving to beat the dungeon.

What you are describing here is actually weight training not weightlifting.* True weightlifting, picking up the heaviest object you can lift then putting it down, will not improve muscular stamina as much as or as noticeably as weight training. My only problem with your post was that you...

To the OP: Lack of use in one system is not a reason for the removal of an ability score in all or most systems. You could use the same basic outline to argue for the removal of any of the other 5 ability scores in D&D. I have a problem with your post here. It has to do with the word I...

One of my favorite Megadungeon oddities was the Laughing Kettle from Wizardry 5. It was a giant animate kettle filled with gold that would sing and dance around and would give various hints, tips and necessary information if you put the appropriate amounts of gold into it. The fun part came...

Ran into a glitch in a M&V match with the Goblin Chieftain. I played one card and then the computer played one of my cards (Octopus) and one of its (Purple) on top of it, later on because I had no more cards in hand the game froze.

Can I get that negative gold reset so I can join in?
