    Plant Body from SC (too good?)

    I don't know about Plant Body, but I have a guy that uses Stone Body all of the time. They are very similar.... I think the problem is the interpretation of "anything physiological." Of course, the guy who uses this also is a biology prof. at the local university! I had to determine that...

    Repel Metal (and Stone)

    I agree with your ruling about having to make a strength check to hold onto an item, but what would the check be? Opposed Strength vs. Wisdom is interesting.... but a little random. I still think measuring the force that the spell is doing (in some way) is a better way to do this. Of...

    Sleight of Hand Quesiton?

    I agree, but I just need some rules backup for this type of thing. At this point (with epic level characters) I definitely see where the rules are breaking down. Stealing from a high level creature, while that creature is braining you with slam attacks and a dancing greatsword is...

    Tremorsense vs. invisibility

    So does Scent work the same way, or can you "smell" your target, not just the square it's in? Aluvial

    Sleight of Hand Quesiton?

    I have a question about (or maybe just a problem with) the skill Sleight of Hand. My problem seems to be that a pretty good thief can take something off of another creature with just a check of 20. There is no opposed roll, and no mention of defenses. This check is the same whether you...

    Repel Metal (and Stone)

    I have a question reguarding the effect of this spell. My question is, what happens to a creature if they are carrying or wearing metal, if that creature runs into an immovable object, such as a fixed wall, is that character pinned? Is the character able to drag himself out of the line...

    Proper Tactics for a Solar vs. a Good Aligned Party

    Good advice from everyone, especially this post! I determined that both of the Solar's were fully set with spells already cast knowing that the party was close by. This greatly enhanced both attacks, defenses against attacks, and AC. I changed up a slot or two and gave them Energy Immunity...

    Proper Tactics for a Solar vs. a Good Aligned Party

    Do you think that they would switch to non-lethal damage towards the end of the fight to prevent killing anyone? Aluvial

    Proper Tactics for a Solar vs. a Good Aligned Party

    I have a situation where a generally good aligned epic PC party (8 of them, levels 21 and 22) is facing off against 2 Solars in a very tight area. The PC's have Death Ward up, so the slaying arrows won't have much effect (unless they can be dispelled). So I'm relying on the angels' weapons and...

    Can You Point Me Towards Archer Prestige Classes?

    I saw the Order of the Bow Initiate... looks pretty cool, especially the Close Quarters Ranged Attacks. I would think there would be more out there. How about something that's from another company? Does EN have something? I'll look at the one in the Silver Marches. Alvuial

    Can You Point Me Towards Archer Prestige Classes?

    I have a 19th level ranger with a ton of bow feats; Manyshot, Improved Rapid, Penetrating Shot to name a few. I need to know about some Archer Prestige Classes. Any of WotC books is fair game. Aluvial

    Domains: Mountain

    I wold like some help in designing a Domain. I've never done so, but this is very important to my campaign. I can pull from any Wizards source. Essentially I know that Domains are like archetypes, so I need one for Mountain. I think that I would like the special to be something similar to...

    Looking for Alternative for Item Creation XP Costs?

    Is there a variable system out there where recipients pay the cost of the xps for the items that are being created? Is this a similar system that can be used for xp costs for spells cast, say a wish? Aluvial

    Shadowdancer Question

    Had to dredge this up... http://www.wizards.com/d20/files/v35/EpicPrestigeClasses.rtf So I don't see that they changed this to just one Shadow. It seems like you get 4. Aluvial

    Ranger Build: Feat Recommendation

    Well, you can use only one arrow a round, but this is perfect for when you are only allowed a standard action. She has too many other cool feats for when she has a Full-Round Action. Aluvial

    Ranger Build: Feat Recommendation

    I have a bow specialist ranger (NPC) that has just hit 18th level and I need a feat for her. This is what she has so far: Those with a # and a * are ranger extras 1) Point Blank Shot () +1 to Hit/Dam if within 30' 1*) Track () Follow Tracks 2*) Rapid Shot () One Extra Attack at your BAB, but...

    Ready Action to Spring Attack?

    I would allow Bounding Assault or Rapid Blitz against one foe, but I could see how you could consider that you need two (or three) to get the other attacks... You use the other opponent to confuse the first so that you can make the second (or third) attack. As for Two-Weapon Fighting, I can...
