    Temple Raider of Olidammara

    Ah, to clarify: She was thinking cleric 10/rogue 5, but now is leaning more towards an even split cleric 8/rogue 7. Unfortunately it looks like the temple raider is for rogues that want to sack some SA damage for a couple spells.

    Temple Raider of Olidammara

    I've had the Complete Divine for awhile now, and when I flipped throught it I saw the Temple Raider and said "ooh! Cleric/thieves" and kept on going, not really looking into it. Now a player in my party wants to go towards a thieving cleric, and I told her this pclass would be good. Looking at...

    Same D&D, Different Themes

    Holy crap! I would be willing to hold off changing StrongSad's toothpaste with laxatives for a week in order to get this! Well...maybe half a week...Ok, two days, but the Cheat also wouldn't steal any more food from Bubs ::squeeksqueeksqueek:: Alright, except Cold Ones.

    Emmm...how did you get the Fort. requirement for the ur-priest?

    Evocative Combat

    That's a really good idea, GandhitheBFG, one I will implement! The key problem that I have found is environment. I am a prepackaged DM, most of my DMing experience has been in running adventures I bought, like Banewarrens and RttToEE. Niether of these adventures are bad, in fact storywise they...

    Gencon Role Call

    Coming to GenCon, whole friggin' time :D (Living in Indy is very useful nowadays) ENnies: Yes Evidently I'm GMing all three rounds of the RPGA Eberron tournament on Saturday/Sunday so I won't be able to go too crazy Friday night. Someone get a group of 6 ENWorlders together and try to get my...

    Pre Gen Con gaming (a few spots still!)

    I think you still have a spot or two open, and I live in Indy. If you still got room I would love to come and am virtually certain I could show up. I could DM some things if you wanted, but I doubt I'm up to par with some of you folks ;) Thanks, Eltern

    Developing a rogue-sniper PrC

    I really like the sound of those abilities, but I don't like the sound of a class having all or even 75% of them :-D Adept Sniper, Extended Shot, Careful Aim, Roguetype sneak attack, camo are all absolutely necessary for the concept. Anatomical study sounds neat, until you realize HOW MUCH...

    Changing Counterspelling to make it a more viable, or at least more common, action

    Personally I think this is a great idea. Counterspelling is ONLY viable if you have a feat for it, which indicates to me that it's a worthless mechanic as is. I really thought they would have fixed this in 3.5 :\ Here's my thought: Counterspelling still requires the "prep," but is effective...

    Epic Campaign vs. Episodic Adventures

    From a DMing standing, epic campaigns are way more fun, because you already have the entire story in your head. As a player, however, it has the potential to get tedious as you don't see things come to a resolution for YEARS. Note: This is not always the case, it just is a very delicate business...

    [EN Publishing Open Call] Playtesting Art of Magic

    I'm interested! Been playing D&D for 10 years, DMing actively for four. No playtest experience, though I love fenangling with the numbers to make things work better. Eltern alacast23@aol

    Shadowrun

    Thanks for the advice! Never would have found it myself. One other question: Is Shadowrun like Dark Sun and Planescape kind of are now, where everything is being converted to a new system and there is not a lot of new writing going on? This is the feel I get.

    Shadowrun

    Yeah, I know this is a D&D forum, but why would I ask elsewhere, when I can ask people whose opinions I value? ;) I've always wanted to play Shadowrun, and now I see that it is starting to revitalize a bit, I think. For a guy who has only played D&D his whole life, is there anything in...

    Help Me Make the Ultimate Con-Man

    Troll, Survivor prestige class, Roll With It, barbarian if you need prereqs for Survivor. If you really want, give it the Feral template for more goodies. Never, ever dies. Ever. I had a 15th level sucker that just ignored ANYTHING. Round One: Enter the room Two: Troll moves to do the set...

    Cinematic, Gritty Combat

    I posted over there about AoE attacks and cover :) I think I'll do Grim n Gritty with action points and see what happens. If it ain't working, I'll do VP/WP.

    Cinematic, Gritty Combat

    I looked at WP/VP system, and it didn't do enough for me in terms of the mentality it creates. If I get hit with a sword, I've only got a 10% chance it's going to REALLY hurt me, and even then I can still probably get away unless he's got a high strength or somesuch. It seemed that it was normal...

    Cinematic, Gritty Combat

    I'm going to be starting an Indiana Jones-esque campaign soon, and I'm trying to work out a combat system to fit the bill. The main problem is that the two factors I really want are mutually exclusive: cinematic fight scenes where people do cartwheels between stone pillars, jump down two stories...

    Grim-n-Gritty: Revised and Simplified

    What is this example that you speak of? Is it buried somewhere in this uberlong thread? I haven't read through all of it. (it's big, ok?! :D )

    Getting a Green dragon out of a lake of acid

    Wait, the waterfall is going right into the pool of acid? Have any of you ever taken high school chemistry? Add Acid, or Do What you Otter, Add Acid to Water Adding acid to water allows the reaction between the two to occur in small doses and not cause any problems, but if you have a WATERFALL...
