I like the world, but I dislike how rigid the world is due to the fact that Greenwood and Salvatore can move beyond there initial characters. HERE BE RANT: Explanation: 4E came and forced them to move on with their characters by introducing the spellplague and ~100 years advancement in the...

Its hard to compare, my reasoning is based on that 3.5 has a ton of additional feat types due to supplements: - Tactical feats: These provide multiple functions, similar to 5e feats. Tho they require a lot of other feats. - Reserve feats: At-will abilities, scaling with spell levels. - Heritage...

Thnx guys, now I understand the buy-off system...its so simple now (that and I re read the rules). :)

Someone? Anyone?

Hi guys. (I'm not sure if this is a double post or not). So, my character is a Karsite (ToM), with +2 LA. How would I go about buying-off the 2 level adjustments? I read the rules for this, but I just don't understand it. The character is at ECL 9 (39043 XP). Thanks in a advance.

Hmm, no orcs... where would you get your generic fodder enemy? And why specifically the half-ogre? Thats even least likely then a half-orc.

I myself scrapped the H-orc and H-elf, I even took out the halfling (cause gnomes are better and more unique, IMO) If you want to mix it up, just use other Orc sub races, like the bit less savage Grey Orcs, or if you want a caster orc go with an Orog. Your imagination is the limit to a better D&D.

I wouldn't change anything about grapple rules, they are fine. The only thing I would change about the Grappler feat is: From: Creatures that are one size larger than you don’t automatically succeed on checks to escape your grapple (since this is for a rule in Alpha that does not exist...

Goblins as far as I know didn't have Light Sensitivity. I think its a good idea. Most games never encounter orcs deep down in caves, that environment is for trogs, drow, kobolds maybe, illithids, beholders, sniflnerneblin (deep gnome)...and other nastys. But rarely orcs or goblins. That and I...

I have to say, I disagree. The fluff can be made to fit any combination (IMO its even more fun to try to make a back-story for a miss-matched race/class/background). But you can't make a optimized character design fit all race/class/background combos. To the OP. - Human (variant, you can't o...

We are playing with the PHB and MM, just random adventuring. But I think once we are done with this first run we will go back to 3.5.

Then IMO, you should have used the same race for both classes, for instance non-variant human. That way you could get a more fair comparison for the classes. The main reason (just looking at the numbers) to take the H-orc is the extra crit and taking the greataxe (which should be the only...

Just reading the barb, you made an error, your using a greatsword and not a grataxe. Due to greataxe having a better crit DMG due to the H-orc's exrta crit dice.

She can use a lance if she needs dmg, it deals d12. Reckless assault will counter the disadvantage from using the lance against adjacent foes. (I just like to point this out every time some one mentions halfling barbarian in 5E).

Well my face is red. :D Yea, read its fluff. They could have made it a bit more clear who are the parents and who are the offspring. Do aboleths die of old age? If yes then normal offspring it is. If they are reborn like phoenixes, then offspring should be non-existent or very rare. The...

So...it REINCARNATES on the elemental plane of water...that would be funny. Random roll as per the reincarnate spell, *poof* drowning goblin on the elemental plane of water. :D

No I can not make sense of it. Yea, just ignore it. PS: Anyone, go key the persons car who wrote this BS. :D Mod Note: To be clear - it is significantly uncool to suggest harm to the person or property of people over a monster entry. It isn't funny. It isn't in perspective. Please don't do...

I completely agree, the size comparison should be an integral part of every "monster manual". Best MM IMO too.

Not to be insulting, but I don't see a problem there. If some don't like it, then they don't have to accept it. Thats a personal/subjective opinion, we can't do anything about that. That is why i try to keep my opinions as objective as possible. W/e.

Yea, I think thats what I said. Yay or nay, all up to you, unless defined by the developers, or just house rule it. Just like its always been. Now for how it affects the game, its not the point, its about me replying to this thread.
