    Feinting in combat with ranged weapons?

    Nice idea, I have to try it on the next session... What´s wrong with making the rogue more effective, reapersaurus? Imagine someone in combat 30ft away from you shouting:"look, a three headed dog". Would you turn your head? In a fight? So, give him some high penalties like -15 or more (don´t...

    Torch as weapon

    There´s something about improvised throwing weapons in the PHB. You can throw some objects as weapons but with a -4 penalty as you considered to be non proficient. I think I would use it as a club that deals extra fire damage. As a torch is normaly smaller than a club, it would deal 1d3 or 1d4...

    Range increment multipliers

    How do range increment multipliers stack? Does an archer with Far Shot using a longbow of distance have a range increment of 100ft(longbow) x1.5(far shot) x2(distance)=300ft? Or works it like threat range multipliers, i.e. threat range x2(keen) x2(improved crit)=threat range x3? In this case...

    Sonic Fireball and Silence

    Sound is just the movement of air, so if you can prevent the air from moving -maybe that´s what a silence spell does- there´s no sound anymore. I think sonic damage works like a shock wave, again the movement of air. No sound, no damage. On the other hand, if you shake someone just hard and...

    returning weapon and multiple attacks

    Really cool visual. What about someone with far shot and his throwing (+1), retrieving (+2) greatsword of distance (+1) up to 100ft towards his enemies?

    returning weapon and multiple attacks

    Thanks for your opinion, Destil. Any one else out there? And what happens if a returning dagger gets stuck to a small, light target like a rabbit. Can you use it as a hunting knive that retrieves it´s own prey? Would be very convenient...

    Can I charge and tumble?

    You´re both right, KnowTheToe and Henry. I just checked my books and the cartwheel attack has to be at least 10 feet in a straight line. The thief acrobat gets this unusual attack at 5th level. The benefit is the sneak attack after surprising the foe with sommersaulting and cartwheeling towards...

    returning weapon and multiple attacks

    I don´t know if this has been discussed before... When a character with quick draw (to get them out quickly) and multiple attacks throws a bunch of returning weapons (as much as he has attacks), exactly at what time will they return to him? All at the same time at the beginning of the next...

    Can I charge and tumble?

    I Think as a Thief Acrobat (Song and Silence) of higher level you can make a cartwheel attack by tumble/charge toward a foe (tumble check DC20). On a success you can make a sneak attack. But I don´t know if you can avoid AoO by doing so (don´t have the book at hand).
