    Anyone else annoyed by psionics?

    Hmm, some curious comments here, I don't disagree with your experience and actually don't want to get into that topic at all :), just a few things jumped out at me. You do mean Psionic Blast, correct? Or is this an illithidkin with mindblast? Just make sure you're following the XPH form of...

    Plane Shift Scrolls: Baked in Goodness or Bring Your Own Fork?

    I'd say Knowledge (the Planes) myself, feels accurate to me, well perhaps not well enough to know how to tune a fork (which sounds like a Craft or possibly Profession thing to me), but they know what the fork should sound like to get them where they want to go. Hmmm, but if the focus is preset...

    here's a good one...

    Hmm, true. Although that makes me ponder an interesting circumstance that I'm not too sure of how possible it is, but still is fun to consider at least. Given how it reads, it seems kinda silly, but it is fairly obvious to me though. Re-enter to threatened space. After you provoke your first...

    here's a good one...

    Eh, this is mostly a DM Caveat type thing, not so much something the rules would likely support or deny either way. That the Death Knight was able to get you to 80 rpm is quite impressive though, wonder what the strength checks were for that with your barbarian's weight. But for fun, 80 rpm...

    Anyone else annoyed by psionics?

    Largely depends on the type of encounters though really. That's a guideline, and a rather misleading one at that. The one time I actually seem to put a dent in my parties resources are single big encounters, not a sequence of moderate ones (Ah the Isle of Despair, encounter checks every hour...

    Diplomacy +23 at 3rd level??? Help, my player must be wrong!!!

    Hmm, I'm just inclined to read that Or in question as a standard or/and/foreach instead of an XOR, solves that problem in my head rather nicely :). On the topic. The important thing is to define when Diplomacy is used instead of Bluff, other skills, or a Cha check. And maintain consistency...

    Power points for non-psionic pcs?

    It qualifies you for many Psionic Prestige Classes easily (such as Pyrokinetic). It also labels you as Psionic (for better or worse) in terms of benefits from feats and certain psionic items.

    If a DM can't cheat, can a player cheat?

    I just want to chime in here. Not only is he cheating himself by altering the results in his benefit. He's cheating the rest of the party as well. He's artificially inflating his "importance" to the adventure and thus lowering everyone elses. He also makes the encounters, in general, less of...

    (YB3) Prelimary Rules (Comments and Criticism Wanted Please?)

    No worries, was just odd having a brainstorm thread that no one posted to in nearly 4 monthes still stickied.

    Sympathetic Magic is evil... As is the connumdrum caused trying to justify it :).

    Juggernaut..resurrected?

    There are many ways to become unable to "perform actions", beyond simply hitting a 0 point in an ability score. And while it might be fun to extrapolate that being dazed or dying should reduce the character's strength to zero and somehow become an object because they can't take action. It's...

    Psicrystal does not advance with Psychic Warrior?

    Trouble is this line. Primary Sources should really be used to determine the more applicable statement. I'd personally go with the definition as listed in the Player section rather than the monster section.

    Can fiendish animals coup de grace?

    I personally say it has to be able ot pronounce "Coup de Grace" properly to be able to Coup. Of course, makes me feel bad for the barbarian. On a more serious note. Animal/Instictual intelligence is alot more advanced than you give credit. Consider the animals that regularly use strategic...

    Juggernaut..resurrected?

    And largely I agree, but it's a silliness of Written Versus Intent. Although personally, I let it get away without requiring the body if there still is one (that's my game though).

    Feats as Pre-Reqs for Prestige Classes?

    If the req is just "Any Item Creation Feat", yep, they do. It's a real feat.

    Juggernaut..resurrected?

    Even more confusing is True Resurrection. WHich has the same Target... Yet for some reason doesn't require the body/corpse. So you have to touch some strange concept of a dead creature.

    Hmm, what's the status on this? Going to drop this from sticky for the time being however. Hopefully a release document is somewhere :).

    Why only YB?

    They were in fact on the old boards. In fact, I believe they may have been back before Fight Club split off from In Character. For the most part, there's no reason why other gladiatorial/fights couldn't take place here. Folks occasionally were intimidated by the sheer bulk of YB content that...
