I can't help myself :). So pretty much every generic human was roughly 1 in 250,000 (rounded for nice quirkiness).

Disturbing and confusing potential there (in my opinion, at least) of a primary statistic being really implied (as opposed to explicitly stated) to have it's modifier nullified for a given secondary statistic, without the primary being nullified due to circumstance (such as being undead). The...

Either more conventional means, such as Threat of Mind Being Eatten. Or, in a particularly valuable/useful slave, the illithid may actually use Thrall if they have a telepath with sufficent levels/power gem.

That is cool, and I want :).

Well actually, the reason you can't teleport into other solid objects. Hmm, interestingly enough, nothing seems to prohibit you from doing that by the 3.5 SRD entry. Ah I see where I got it from, Dimension Door and assuming its rules applied to Teleport (most likly in error). Very odd, since...

And the irony of it is, two Disney channels charge nearly ten times the service cost of all viacom channels together :x. And it appears that Cox is quite likly to end up dropping Disney channels because of it (Similiar manner to the TW issue in the past) instead of deal with having to soak a...

Heavy Fortification makes you sorta immune to crits. (+5 equivilance) Just a 100% chance of negating a critical hit or a sneak attack, but I think that's good enough for "Crit Immunity" in terms of this discussion :).

Rules-As-Written As opposed to various intepretations that typically aren't supported by the Rules as Written (such as the Rules of the Game articles and a number of Sage Advice articles).

Errr. wrong, Dead player characters are still supposed to earn experience. Further, the average party level (or specific character level as FR) is what is used for determining experience, not the EL of the party. Also, they are still four CR 14 creatures, and reward experience as four CR 14...

Actually, by the reading of both 3.x PHs, it does occur in that manner. The 3.5 SRD thankfully phrases it slightly better but carries the same consequence. 3.0 PH "The partial action comes before the action that triggers it." 3.5 PH "The action occurs just before the action that triggers it."...

I'd personally say it's impossible to ready an action for being hit (or specifically someone being hit), as it breaks the presented flow for readied actions. Situation is that a readied action will occur -before- the triggered action, and readying against damage would often result in the...

I haven't had much trouble with teleport, but then again I have a weird setup. There exists a Teleportation Circle network for transport between major cities (400 gp per medium-sized humanoid! it's a bargain). Half of the continent is warded against teleportation + divination effects. There...

Additionally, the dwarf most likly would end up having to drop all but two of the hammers on 'return' anyway, since I believe it takes a MEQ to put an object up/resheath it. Far Shot is pretty 'mediocre' as a benefit, although significant, 30 ft still isn't a significant range advantage for a...

To my knowledge, Wizards hasn't done anything about it. I haven't heard anything either way on it. And to my knowledge, no reprints or recall type requests have gone out for Temple of Solusek Ro. It was really just an "honest mistake" I believe, they copied some generic table text from one of...

Hmm off topic I know, but just kinda curious here. +2 for one feat is too little, but +4 for two is too much? Does a bit to imply (At least to me) that the problem is just that the problem is there are too many feats/means to increase your Spell DC rather an problem with the actual feats being...

I think it's significantly less likly for Eberron to go the way of Ghostwalk simply as they are a different sort of campaign setting each. It would be more fair to compare Eberron against the potential of going the way of Greyhawk. Ghostwalk was really, ultimately, a location setting, that...

True on most of those, and I frankly don't want to deal with facing in general to be honest :P. [Note most faceless critters aren't critable anyway] A war-game type would most likly be more necessary for facing to work. And I think flanking rules make sense as well, I just have difficulty...

Mostly, I was wrong about the phrasing and I forgot that the Experience part is in reference to definition of applying it. Sidenote that I saw mentioned :). EverQuest has broken the OGL (it made direct reference to the D&D PH in a product) in the past as well, and may be dangerously close to...

And ever more so am I convinced that flanking is an unnecessary complication to the rules made in order to balance the rogue/sneak attack. I'm halfway tempted to do away with flanking or use the facing rules from ua to just get rid of the logical conundrums (invisible observant generating flank...

Stop worrying if other people enjoy being damage beasts. That's how they can have fun, it shouldn't necessarily impede on your own fun. If it's a matter of having "too much combat" in the game as a result, then play with a different group that has similiar expectations. If it's yourself whose...
