    HOLY CRAP! Please tell me I'm wrong.

    Make sure to also give them good opportunities to use their preferred tactic. :)

    Where are all the good TANK fighter PrC's??

    Depends a little on what "tank" means to you. I think of a tank as the character who is the primary target of your opponents and whose strength is in taking damage (i.e. survivability). Some people, from my perspective, get the roles of damage dealer and tank confused. To fulfill my vision of...

    Entangle--what's the Saving Throw?

    Here's the description from the SRD (emphasis added): As Stormrunner pointed out, the Reflex saves are made during the caster's turn, each round. The "you" in a spell description always refers to the caster. When the spell is cast it is, of course, the caster's turn and all creatures in the...

    Battle of the FPS: Which game has the best creep factor?

    Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines has some pretty creepy areas. It isn't really a FPS, as you switch to 3rd person when using melee weapons. There is also a significant RPG component.

    Which one doesn't suck?

    Dungeon Seige is almost entirely hack & slash. You follow the road that leads from your farm to the king's castle killing everything in your path. There are a few NPCs who give you minor quests or send you on down the path or sell you items. It does look pretty good, but I grew bored fairly...

    Cure Minor on self when disabled

    True, the metamagic feat to use is Twinned Spell. ;)

    Viable crossbow builds

    Now, a Quickloading Repeating Crossbow, that has potential. :)

    CArc Warlock" Flee the Scene + Walk Unseen

    Hmm, interesting question. I would rule the major image depicts you as you are, invisible. In other words, the illusion will not contain a visual component. It would still "react appropriately", so if your location was hit by an AoE spell, it would probably scream in pain or something similar...

    What's a "unique being" for purposes of Gate?

    I had a player try something like this in an epic game a while back. This was during 3.0, so, while hasted, he cast two twinned gates summoning four solars in one round. Unfortunately, standard solars aren't all that tough in the epic game. All four died in the next round. Four solars...

    Need help with a Warlock build.

    No one has suggested Weapon Focus: Eldritch Blast. I would think this would be a good choice early on. Is there something I'm missing?

    What's a "unique being" for purposes of Gate?

    I've always seen this as a big part of the balancing factor for gate. Before the XP cost was added, it was pretty much the only balancing factor. If you gate in some greater demon and compel it to service, it's going to be very angry. The summoner is fairly safe while the spell lasts, but after...

    Can't find a Half-Deity type template.

    There is also a Pseudonatural template in Complete Arcane. It is in under the description of the Alienist prestige class.

    Cooperative Scribe scroll

    Yes, in both cases. I wouldn't treat it differently than creating any other magic item

    Max EB damage of a 10 Warlock / 10 Wild Mage

    Caster level has no direct effect on the damage of Eldritch Blast so there would be no change in damage. The varying caster level would effect the Wild Warlock's chances of penetrating spell resistance, however. I believe the Quicken Spell-Like Ability feat can be applied to any Spell-Like...

    [CA] Does PBS work with the Repelling Blast Invocation?

    I don't have the book handy, so I can't read the description of Repelling Blast. As long as an attack roll is required and it is a ranged attack, Point Blank Shot should apply. If the attack does not do damage, the bonus to damage would not apply, though.

    Any PrCs that have bonus feats as well as +1 arcane spellcasting level?

    I believe Mage of the Arcane Order (Complete Arcane) gets two bonus metamagic feats and has full spellcasting progression.

    Protection from Evil Versus Charm

    Note the references to "ongoing control" and "excercise mental control". Charm person and similar spells simply cause the target to view the caster's requests in the most favorable light. The caster has no direct control over the target, simply increased influence. I don't believe protection...

    Travel Domain Special Ability

    Because the description of the domain ability specifies "magical effects", I have always interpreted it to apply only to spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural abilites. My answer is no, to both your questions.

    Does Adamantine Body Help With Sunder?

    No. The Adamantine Body feat describes an improvement in the Warforged's armor, it makes no reference to an improvement in the Warforged's natural weapons. Therefore, the feat does not improve the Warforged's natural weapons. Note this feat doesn't produce a Warforged character constructed of...

    Legal, reasonable way to make permanency, well, permanent

    If you are epic, take the Tenacious Magic feat (prereq Spellcraft 15) and choose the spell permanency. Then, for you, permanency is only suppressed for 1d4 rounds by a successful dispel effect.
