    How often do you re-format your hard drive?

    You are either very very lucky, don't make a lot changes or installs/uninstalls, or just really love living on the edge. :D At least it isn't WinME..... :D Hope you have backups of all the important stuff. :uhoh: RD

    How often do you re-format your hard drive?

    A lot of it depends on the OS you are using. In the past with older less stable OS's I've done clean reinstalls every 6 months minimum. Now with XP I've had to do it after major upgrades to the hardware or due to hardware failure. I ran XP for almost 2 years before I was forced due to a...

    A few questions about Brilliant Energy

    I'll give a few IMO answers since I don't recall any official rulings or clarifications. 1: I think this is one of those up to the DM things. I have run Brilliant Energy two ways depending on what I wanted the weapon theme to be. One the weapon has no blade until grasped. Since the...

    Sorcerers use Divine Spells!

    I've allowed this to some degree IMC without too much problem. I have PC sorcerer's that know cure spells and even heal. But there is a role-playing connection to allow it. First they had to have a patron deity. Second they cannot just learn divine spells, they must find a scroll, have one...

    The DM's Screen

    Got the free one from dragon, got the FR one, and got the 3.0 screen. Still have the 1e/2e screens. All are sitting on the shelf. Haven't used screens in a long time for anything. Once and while I might pull down one of the screens to look something up like a obscure weapon stats or...

    Why Randomized Healing?

    If you are going to the potions with a set amount of hp healing, then just make it average. i.e. a cure light wounds would heal 5 hp, cure moderate: 11, etc. The only difference then would be if they were made at higher caster level. So a caster level 1 Cure light is 5hp, whereas a caster...

    Crit Tables

    I agree I like this too, I might have to incorporate it into my existing stuff. Boy the players are going hate criticals even more..... :] RD

    Crit Tables

    If you have the Dragon Archive you could look up the old 1e/2e article on Critical Hits and Misses and modify that for 3E. That's sort of what I have done. I don't recall which Dragon it is in off the top of my head and I don't have access to my notes on it at this time, (at work and all). RD

    Detecting the Thoughts of Fiends causes Insanity?

    For a 3E reference, if my memory serves me correctly since I don't have access to my books at the moment (work interferes too much with game :D ). Check the Probe Thoughts spell in Defenders of the Faith. I think it says something about reading the minds of creatures alien to the caster could...

    [RPG] Who is playing?

    Boy it's going to take a long time for the Ghost of RuminDange to get back to his previous status as archmage. Anyway, I'm here. RD

    Bloodlines in Unearthed Arcana

    Ok. After doing a lot of searching on both Enworld and WOTC, I can't find a answer to a simple question. :\ On the Bloodlines in Unearthed Arcana, the Red, Gold and Silver dragon major bloodlines grant breath weapon at 16th level. However, what it fails to say is how often the breath...

    Ideas for a challenging quest

    I'd say their best bet is talking with Nord, either getting the geas removed and moving on with the greater quest, or using the knowledge they have the disease and artifact and dragon wanting to be an avatar as a way of making a deal with Nord to get the book and do something in return for him...

    Ideas for a challenging quest

    How important is the book to Nord? What is the books purpose? What is the PC's greater quest and how does it relate to the lich and/or Nord? Would the PC's be agaisnt asking for the book? Or are they more likely to go busting in, killing and looting to get it? I know you said one is good, but...

    Why Identify?

    Another good reason to change it that I forgot about. :D

    Cost for a custom Ring

    Actually you have the price way to low for Continual Flame. Since it can be activated/deactivated at will and in a ring of protection the formula would be: 2 * 3 * 2000 * 2 = 24000gp. Reason for this is: 2nd level spell * 3rd level caster minimum * 2000 (use activated) * 2 not more expensive...

    Why Identify?

    The annoying time it took to id items in 3.0 and the fact you only got the lowest power ever for 100gp is one of the reason IMC I rewrote both Identify and Analyze Dweomer to better suit my players desires. Now Identify works off of Knowledge (Arcane) and gives the caster one power per level in...

    Sunblades and Falchions

    I'd agree, as I did a quick an dirty breakdown of the price of the sunblades ability. Normally I'd work out the exact formula to get the cost of the sunblade exact and then change the weapon types and other enchancements on it. But that is when I am at home and have time and this is one of the...

    Sunblades and Falchions

    Just a quick look over the sunblade cost, and the cost of a +1 Keen Undead Bane Falchion; to add the abilities of the Sunblade I'd add about 40000gp to the cost of the weapon. (that's daylight at 10th level casting ability which is the only requirement other than being good for creating a...

    Rpg

    Just a quick question....did something happen to the RPG characters and stuff? Mine is gone along with access to the bank and everything. Just wondering if we had another database deletion like with the subscripition lists. RD
