    Elven Chain vs. Mithral Shirt... WTF?

    Does this mean you can have Mithril Hide Armor, Mithril Padded Armor and Mithril Leather Armor?

    Headband of Intellect question! (My Int is too low to figure this out!)

    If you don't skill points when your intelligence drops, why would you lose any spells memorized? According to your logic, you wouldn't lose anything you already learned (or memorized).

    Animal Friendship questions…

    Animal Friendship questions… There has been a dispute in my group with the reading of the Animal Companion spell. Here is the problem we have, from the SRD: “The character can have animal friends whose Hit Dice total no more than twice the character's caster level.” So we have a level 6...

    Celestial and Half-Celestial Template questions

    What is the Advancement Level (or whatever it is called) for a Celestial and a Half-Celestial? Basically, what level creature are they considered? I need to make up a level 5 character and I am allowed to use these templates. I want to make a Bard, but I don’t know what level Bard I can make...

    Is all damage doubled/tripled with a charging lance?

    Ahhh, I just remembered the post I was thinking about. It was regarding a Psionic power that healed the same amount of damage that it inflicted (Vampiric something or other). The argument was if the damage healed was JUST from the damage the weapon inflicted or if other sources counted (Sneak...

    Is all damage doubled/tripled with a charging lance?

    OK, I wasn't sure. I know there are some exceptions to the rule though. I think there is a spell or feat (I forget the name) that was discussed on this board before about how “all damage” was doubled on a crit. As a matter of fact, I think it might have been one of the Divine feats, or maybe...

    Is all damage doubled/tripled with a charging lance?

    Huh? Can I get a serious answer, I need to get back to my DM on this ASAP. Maybe I'll check out the WotC boards, their members seem to be more polite and knowledgeable.

    Is all damage doubled/tripled with a charging lance?

    If you are on a mount and have the spirited charge feat and you charge with a lance, is all the damage tripled or just the damage from the weapon itself? If I had the Spellsword PrC and put "Inflict Light Wounds" on my lance and charge with it, does the ILW damage get tripled too?

    Melee, Ranged, Projectile and Thrown weapons...

    I thought this was the rules forum? I am here to understand the rules. In light of what has been described about "melee attack" vs. "melee weapon", it puts a new perspective on things. Like I asked in my last question (which on one bothered to answer), can you use "ranged" feats with...

    Melee, Ranged, Projectile and Thrown weapons...

    Not according to the rules in the PHB. Some feats specify that they only work with “melee attacks” and some specify they only work with “melee weapons”. Same holds true with “ranged attacks” and “ranged weapons”. Does this mean I can take “Point-Blank Shot” on a Great Axe? If I could then it...

    Can you do subdual damage with a CDG?

    The FAQ kind of hints at the fact that you can perform a coup de grace that does subdual damage. From the FAQ: It says you can deal normal damage on an unarmed attack. So it seems like the default (for unarmed attacks anyway) is that you do subdual damage instead. I guess it is possible.

    Is the Force Dragon unhittable?

    If you are playing a level 40 character, chances are you didn't "role-play" to get that hight. At this point, isn't all just about hack-and-slash anyway?

    My Assassin-to-be's character progression thus far...

    There would be no exp penalties at all. All base classes are within one level of each other and Prestige classes are exempt from the exp penalties rule.

    My Assassin-to-be's character progression thus far...

    Oh, I didn't realize this was the roleplaying board. Silly me, I thought this was the rules forum.

    Anyone know?

    Do natural 1's instantly mean a failed save?

    I don't like the idea of having critical failures if you don't have critical saves for the same instance. If I need a 30 to save vs. a DC and I roll a nat 20, I don't think I should succeed in the save if the total isn't >= 30. Same thing for failures. If I roll a nat 1 and my bonuses meet or...

    Melee, Ranged, Projectile and Thrown weapons...

    No, but that would make it all that much better... I originally was thinking of making an assassin type akin to “The Scorpion King”. Yeah, I know, not the best movie, but the idea of that type of assassin sparked my interest. So originally I wanted an archer that could do lots of damage...

    My Assassin-to-be's character progression thus far...

    Here is the progression I have so far, from level 1 to 10. I am going for Assassin, with a few extra "perks" from other classes. I wanted to get some opinions. The weaknesses (if you want to call them that) that I see thus far is that this character won't have many extra attacks for a...
