    wotc website articles 3.x archive.

    So, is there any chance of re-hosting this somewhere else, or even just attaching it in 100MiB chunks to posts here? I'm still only able to download about half the file before the connection resets on me, and I'd really like to get my hands on this.

    3.0 Feat "Priest" What is it?

    Well, yes, but the OP said he'd been searching his 3.0 books, and it being from a non-D&D source would explain why he couldn't find it. ;)

    3.0 Feat "Priest" What is it?

    That's probably Arcana Unearthed or Arcana Evolved, which isn't a D&D resource; it's an alternate d20 system. Priest is a feat in that book, but if I recall correctly it's not in the Feats section.

    wotc website articles 3.x archive.

    Could you try to host it somewhere else? Whenever I try to download it, it gets to about 30% completion and then the site says the file cannot be found.

    When not to allow a reflex save?

    1) Most of the responses to you have been to clarify what seemed to be a misunderstanding on your part--namely, that stunned and nauseated and such don't mean helpless. If you are bashed upside the head with something and are too dizzy to hit someone with your own weapon, that doesn't prevent...

    D&D 3.x Why be a 3.5 fighter?

    I don't personally consider it broken, but it shows up on a lot of lists of broken spells on BG and GitP, so I threw it in there. It's broken more for its abusability factor; combining it with Sanctum Spell or Arcane Thesis or other metamagic tricks can result in very easy infinite spell...

    D&D 3.x Why be a 3.5 fighter?

    Actually, most classes have a low end and a high end of optimization, for people who have absolutely no idea what they're doing and experienced optimizers, respectively. Druids and clerics have a higher "low end" than most classes, because you can access all spells on your list and thus can't...

    D&D 3.x Why be a 3.5 fighter?

    So you and your players don't notice the more obvious combinations of abilities? I mean, just looking at the fire seeds example, given "I can turn into something immune to fire" and "I can make things that explode in fire," I'd think most people could figure that one out. Dandu is by no means...

    Elemental Champion Custom Class - Feedback Plz :)

    I noticed the changes; I was remarking on the "taking default feats away" portion to reinforce nonsi's comment. 1) I figured out that that's what you meant; however, when you place a nonstandard HD amount in the HD section, you can't simply assume people will read it the same way you did. 2)...

    Initiator Level Calculation

    Yes, you're right; the important point is that it adds 1 IL to all of them, despite my miscalculation.

    Golem Immunity

    "Almost no chance"? The save for the first limb is only 15. Anyone should be able to make that by mid levels (an average Diamond Mind warblade could auto-make it at level 10 or so with no chance of failure) and by higher levels most creatures should have no difficulty making the saves for...

    Initiator Level Calculation

    Not quite: It says "in most cases," and then references the PrCs chapter. Unless a PrC says in its description "You add your full X levels to your initiator level" etc. etc., it doesn't. Not even all the ToB ones do--the Bloodstorm Blade actually doesn't add full levels to IL. Those PrCs...

    Elemental Champion Custom Class - Feedback Plz :)

    You don't gain damage reduction against fire, you gain energy resistance. Apart from the fact that DR only covers physical damage, "energy resistance against fire" means you subtract that from fire-based attacks while "DR X/fire" would imply you subtract that from anything except fire-based...

    Counterspelling

    Battlemagic perception (3rd level, HoB) lets you sense any magic used within 100 feet, plus you can counterspell one spell as a free action even without LoS. It's not an auto-counterspell like duelward, you still need to expend a spell, but if you have a few battlemagic perceptions up and...

    Iajitsu Damage

    Yes. As long as you satisfy the Iaijutsu requirements (enemy flat-footed, your weapon sheathed) you can make the check with any attack.

    Only one thing bugs me about Monks...

    To be fair, addressing the caster/noncaster power disparity by fixing existing material instead of releasing ToB would require two things WotC would never even consider: (1) taking the route that didn't involve making another book for people to buy, and (B) admitting they were wrong. ;)

    D&D 3.x Molds? new to 3.5 and cant find stats

    They're treated as "dungeon hazards" rather than monsters, so they're in the DMG under Dungeon Ecology.

    Multiclassing as martial adept

    You do have to track them separately for purposes of initiator level and such when learning them, though you can for instance use a warblade maneuver to fulfill the prerequisite for a swordsage maneuver. Only the recovery method of that class; all maneuvers are refreshed separately if you use...

    Anyone out there good with bards?

    You want Doomspeak, from Champions of Ruin (also on the Crystalkeep site, if you don't have CoR). Spend a bardic music use to grant a target within 120 feet a -10 to attacks, saves, and checks for a round, Will DC 10 + character level + Cha negates. The DC of that Will save will be at least 4...

    DM that never read the DMG

    Before DMing my first 3e game, I'd read a DMG...the 1e one, many years before, when I was running AD&D. The "how to run a game" stuff hasn't changed much, if at all, and even then, I learned much more about DMing from my prior DMs than from the DMG. For magic items and PrCs I trusted my...
