I'm afraid I haven't had a chance to see a Warlock in play (except in WoW ;)) so I might have to search for a few threads about them and any issues you're referring to, but I can certainly see your point. Yeah, I'm not sure how to balance it, but I would love to find something that works both...

I noticed that too, A'koss, and feel the same way. Up until now I've been imagining a mechanic similar to Magic: the Gathering where each player gets more mana by laying/tapping into land. Obviously it'd be a bit different, but since we've seen other classes like the Archer (aiming) and...

Sweet! :D :cool: Very good to know, thanks. It does indeed! I'm running 10.3.9 so I'll go get Adobe Reader 7 now. Honestly Preview has been managing all my PDF needs just fine so I haven't kept up with the Reader versions at all. I think I'm still using version 5 or so. Thanks to everyone...

Thanks, Nifelhein! I'll have to do some reading on the Watermarked PDFs I guess. Is that the protection scheme that limits installations (which isn't a big deal right now) and the amount of copying & pasting (which may be, because I do quite a bit of prep work for each session basically typing...

Right, but I'm not sure why. If you take a look at the Malhavoc products at DTRPG they are all pretty much currently listed at 50% off, including Arcana Evolved (currently listed at $24). I have to admit I've never purchased from DTRPG because of the protection scheme they started with. I'm on...

Which is fair given the lack of specificity in the RAW, but it rubs me the wrong way that if my Medium-sized dwarven friend is being grappled by a Large Bear or Huge Fiendish Centipede that I have an equal chance of hitting him or the much larger beast with my arrows. At least if you add in some...

First off, a big thank you to Dr. Strangemonkey for the heads up about White Wolf's Summer Catalog PDF and the Iron Heroes info inside it. I've never checked that thing and would never have thought to look for any additional information. Second, I'd agree the Harrier will need "some frekkin...

I think it's essentially what I've done IMC for over a year now and have been very pleased with. :) The only difference is how I divided up the feats. For me, TWF simply gives you an equal number of off-hand attacks as primary hand attacks, and that's just as true at 1st level (for 1 & 1) as...

Which happened shortly after our Wizard picked up Energy Substitution [Sonic] (we were playing 3.0 at the time). ;) To be fair, Nail probably made those changes long before we encountered any of these creatures, but that was the perception we had from our side of the DM's screen. :D...

Was I summoned? :p Yeah, this was kind of hard to forget. Very low (essentially no) chance to escape given my BAB is less than a fighter's because of the Wizard & AA levels, and that my Strength is only fair because of the high Dex for Archery. Didn't do much that combat except get squished...

This is totally a House Rule IMG, but after running some of these same numbers a year or so ago I changed the TWF feat chain pretty dramatically, and the changes have worked well: So, just by taking TWF you have just as many attacks with your off-hand as you do with your primary hand (which...

I've always run Point Buy as I prefer a game with strong character concepts. That's the first thing I ask my players: "What type of character do you want to play?" IMO, Random Rolling leads to an entirely different question: "What type of character do you want to play given these stats?" I...

Right, that I understand (and thanks for the download, your layout is quite a bit better than mine! :) ). I guess what I was really asking is this: The last time you and sat down and tried to do that the Core Monk ended up woefully short of CPs to get everything coming to him. Coupled with the...

Understood. So many games, so little time. :p And I'm honestly just glad some other people have found some use for what I did primarily for my own campaign and problems with the underlying Core system. That's cool! :cool: Right. Quite simply, since there literally are no classes with this...

Glad to have you aboard, Doctor. :) Please come back with any feedback you (and your players) have that might help us improve things! Nope, you're not missing a thing; totally my error. Thanks for pointing it out. I remember having trouble with how to classify A Thousand Faces when I was...

Glad it's worth some of your time, and please share your thoughts if you get a chance to really tinker with it. Now that Amaroq and you have both mentioned EoMr I probably should purchase and take a look at the revised version and see what they've done with it. I certainly wouldn't do anything...

One posted in our group forum that he'd try this weekend. Another I know should now be finished with finals but hopefully will be able to post soon. Another is on vacation through this weekend. Just a busy time for everyone, I guess. I know I'M glad the week is over. :) As ouini said, we did...

Thanks! It's been quite a bit of work off & on, but it's fun to sit and really try and take things apart to put them together again and see how the fit and compare with each other. I, too, have used it to see how a particular Core build stacks up and to evaluate other Core Classes and Prestige...

Hey! Sorry I haven't responded until now, I haven't been checking this thread as often as I once was since interest in the material seemed to wane there for a bit. We're having a great time at the table using it and I've been a bit busier since WoW came out. ;) It's not really that difficult...

Right! That's the RAW, but it basically makes countering a non-option, IMO, which I'm never a big fan of. I think if this came up IMG I'd allow a Spellcraft check before entering the darkness effect to determine the center of the effect, then allow the caster to successfully counter the...
