The most troubling point in 'converting' between D&D and EQ (Either way) is the different magic system. EQ Monsters typically have more hitpoints, due in part to the Mana Point magic system and an increased rate of damage progression (the Iterative Weapon speeds, more buffs in general, etc)...

The only 'change' is the addition of the epic PrC Spellfire Hierophant. The Epic Spellfire Wielder feat boosts your 'stored spellfire energy levels' by effecitvely raising your Constitution by 4 for those purposes only. It's also multiselectable, increasing it by 4 each time taken. All the...

Well, Empower or Maximize are actually good choices, because, if necessary (ie, you've run out of Heals + used your all 4th level and lower spell slots already) to still eek some healing out. Still not too useful with the Mass Cure Wounds for those higher spell slots. Unless you're healing an...

Hmm, I think it'd be a very high powered rule ... once you're level 10. If you cap it at (level / 2) instead (max 10), it still be a problem with the Value/Worth of Skill Mastery and related Class Features, but long as you control/adjust the appropiate PrCs, it just leaves Skill Mastery, which...

So generally, an elemental will not be immune to ability damage or energy drain. They are living creatures (sorta just like Outsiders, they just happen to be from the Inner Planes instead of the Outer Planes). [ Add ] Oh, and Li Sherron, thankfully that situation doesn't occur too often for...

Most common OGL Domain Source for me is : Plot and Poison, mostly as I adapted alot of the Drow material from it for my drow. FRCS/PGF are the most common non-PH domain source for my game. DDg comes in a close third against Plot and Poison... So I guess I'm not the best person to ask, as I...

Oyuban Meowth has since seen the light, and has decided to change pathes to Light-side! Meowth think all goody goody now! Meooowth! Team Rocket can go blast off on its own now! Reowth! Meowth Meowth see here. Tier 7 Oyuban -> Tier 6 Sash ->Tier 5 Honor->Tier 4 Light! Meowth be Knight o...

Also, be sure to read the notes in each Sacrifice, some of the sacrifice components have special rules (Phoenix Fire for instance forces a level loss from the Death component).

But hey, at least the Osyluth (? what is going to disguise itself as?) has a Disquise skill. In anycase, I'd argue they could do a Disguise Skill check (with the +10 bonus from the spell) to 'hide' their wings.

Actually, with Two-Weapon fighting, attack with just the shortsword would be 0. You're not invoking any two-weapon fighting penalties (the -6 to both). Hmm... Actually that's interesting. The 3.5 SRD Two Weapon Fighting feat only applies it benefit when using two weapons. I think you're...

I honestly don't know. From what I've seen, I doubt it, but I honestly don't know. Unless BRC or the other author were asked to do a SRD write up similiar to what Andy did while writing 3.5... I'm doubting it significantly. [ add ] BRC @ Malhavoc ...

Actually I was thinking more of Mage, where the magic philosophies come into direct conflict with each other between a couple of the tradition books and when the convention books were introduced. Same for the Book of the Weaver [WW]. Anycase, this is drastically off topic now :). A cloistered...

Hmm, couple notes. No Energy Resistance (The improved Spell Resistance replaces that). But yea, it looks like a 3.0 dragon with those caster levels.

The Sage says yes. BRC says no. It's up to you to decide. And yes it has, but honestly I don't recall the link (And it was on WotC boards). [ Add ] By RAW, it's arguable. The line where it says that powers affected by metapsionic feats are treated as 'higher level power' can be interpreted...

Actually, much of the metaplot remained consistant at least. It just resulted in Yet Another Siege on Enoch :). Viccisitude as an intelligent disease was established elsewhere initially (it's a Fomor and classified as such in some of the Werewolf books). Of course, remember, all books are...

You're correct about Mutants and Masterminds being OGL. However, CoC d20 was published by Wizards of the Coast, and they own the d20 trademark. Hence, they can include what they want in a d20 book. It is not bound by the STL or the OGL in those regards. In fact, that's why Sanity rules, and...

I actually had better stability with Windows ME over both Win98 and Win2000 :(. 98 hated certain USB devices, and 2000 would randomly disconnect my cd-roms. Me worked with both quite nicely. XP works much better than the other three now at least :).

More or less, they perfer 'I improve ONE thing at a time' (Improvement Points) for terms of character advancement rather than 'I improve in a set of things over time' (levels). Even if said 'time' taken for a specific 'improvement set' can be equivilant for either medium. Specific and...

Not always true either. In 1st -> 2nd revamp, there was at least one sourcebook that was labeled as compatibile with both editions. Greyhawk Adventures comes to mind. Interesting sidenote at least, AD&D 1e and 2e license is now being supported by Kenzer and Co through the HackMaster line...

Well just another quick comment from me here. It's far easier for the end user to 'take caution to the wind and the heck with balance' if the game is already balanced than 'to apply caution and enforce balance' if the game is already (grossly) unbalanced (see Rifts with an 'Open Call' for any...
