I've gone from "I'll give a try to fill out my subscription" to "officially excited." Maybe in the time between now and then I can bring one of my games to a conclusion so I can justify starting up this to my players.

Stat-wise, you can skimp on Intelligence (6 skill points a level) and Cha. Dex and Wis are probably your key ones for AC. Feats: Desert Fire and Desert Wind Dodge are both pretty handy as long as you can stay mobile- and tumble is a class skill for the swordsage. Each requires you to move at...

As a long time reader of Dragon, it hurts to know my favorite magazine is coming to an end. But, I'm willing to give what follows a chance before I make my decision. I've bumped my subscriptions over to Pathfinder, and I'll take a look at what WotC puts online. I hope I'm not disapointed...

Welp, the player agreed that the power only applies to spells from his domain slots, but he still is happy to be able to cast a couple of free maximized cures a day. Add that to his divine metamagic-empower, and he'll get plenty of healing done. He also reminded me that I might be...

Thanks. I'll add it to the growing list of "creative" rules interps from this player *sigh* And thanks for the link, I'll check that out.

A player is bringing a Radiant Servant of Pelor (from CD) into my game tonight. I was looking it over when I came across something that was different than how I'd seen the RS played. The Empower/Maximize Healing ability. In the text, it states these kick in when the character "casts a domain...

Well, I sure hope his problems clear up soon and Zogonia (orignal and mountain flavors) return to the Dragon and Dungeon pages. I'll be looking forward to the book- Zogonia is the best strip Dragon has had in a long time.

Races of Eberron and Five Nations have contributed the most to the games I've been a part of. I've played a Bone Knight, and the setting details in 5N have helped flesh out parts of the game set in Karnath and the Mournlands. RoE has lots of crunch goodness. Secrets of Xendrik has been a...

My group, after weathering some personel changes, well resume AoW this Thursday. We left Gathering of Winds at a cliffhanger, and for various reasons we weren't able to get together to finish the adventure before the holidays and the spliting of the group. So, we'll pick up where we left...

Oversize two weapon fighting from Complete Adventurer will reduce the penalty for using a non-light weapon in your off-hand. Two weapons are not the best route for the traditional tank. You might be better served using a single weapon in two hands. You're lacking Power Attack, the bread and...

There's a warblade in my Savage Tide game. Gestalted with ranger and cleric levels, now up to... 9th level? I think he leveled last time. A dwarf headed toward the Stone Dragon prestige. He's tough. Well, of course, he's a dwarf, and he uses Stone Power and Stone Bones to good use, along...

Seconded.

It's something I'm considering. Toss out basic arcane and divine, and work with psionics and magic of incarnum (well, once I get my hands on the book to read it over). By the time I get around to starting it, I'll have run through two adventure paths levels 1-20, so a "different" campaign...

That's basically what the raptorans from Races of Wild do. Their wings stiffen, they do a tight corkscrew to the ground, and take 1d6 damage regardless of height.

A long time favorite of mine was the Nogard solo adventure. Basically, the final adventure for any monty haul character, with options at each step depending on the class of your character. At one step, you could try to kill yourself, but failed. The reason the fighter couldn't was his AC was...

If you want to figure that out Hyp, by all means, though it looks like you're overcomplicating things. For my table, make the attacks in base attack order. If you're getting more than one at a BAB number (ie, the character above have +11 with his on-hand, +11 with his off-hand, and +11 from...

Correct, except you won't gain any reach. Bears are long creatures, so both brown and dire bears, while large, only have a 5ft reach.

That's actually how you do it. From the SRD So, your attacks would be 11/11/11/6/6/1.

The +8 is a bonus to the character's strength score. So, the 20 str half-orc would go to a 28 str (and boosting his str mod from +5 to +9 in the process). You'll have to look at the description to see if this is a typed or untyped bonus, but whatever it is, it will stack with the character's...

Looks pretty cool to me. I'll have to look over the bard spell list, see how well it would work to progress one into this. Gestalted with the swashbuckler would be pretty sweet too.
