    Please Tell Me I'm Wrong

    I didn't know there was a summon undead in 3.0... Yeah, this would have worked perfectly as a not very powerful spell in 3.0, BUT now it can be really really broken (imagine fighting a creature with 12 attacks per round, whether it moves or not, and this can be summoned one per round, at level...

    Clerics and Druids being the most powerful, what? Have I missed some min-maxing tactics?

    Please Tell Me I'm Wrong

    Okay, the spell Summon Undead from Libris Mortis, or more specifically Summon Undead III. Alll these spells are like summon monster, except the list is different. The table has things like Skeleton, Medium and Zombie, small for SU I. It doesn't seem to specify which skeleton or zombie, so...

    What to buy for the BBEG (Jeff, don't look at this please)

    Well, as to whether we're playing 3.0, that's a complicated answer. We've been playing 3.0 since I started dnd, and we've started changing to 3.5 sort of one rule at a time, currently we've changed haste, harm, and some other spells. Using the 3.5 arcane prestige classes, so the TN has...

    What to buy for the BBEG (Jeff, don't look at this please)

    Okay guys, I have a cleric 3 / wizard 3 / true necromancer 4 that I'm trying to buy equipment for. So far I've got a periapt of wisdom +2 and headband of intellect +2, but what else should I give him? I'm thinking I'll need to pump up his armor, but since he's a wizard the arcan spell failure...

    What's a "unique being" for purposes of Gate?

    well, when someone comes up with the idea, just get a bunch of books (it doesn't matter whether those templates are in them or not), open one up, and say "are you sure you want me to do this?" I'm now thinking, how about no save for generic creatures from the MM, a choice for *truly* unique...

    What's a "unique being" for purposes of Gate?

    Well, at first when I see "unique being" things like the tarrasque come to mind...but there aren't that many of those. You're right about those sentences seeming to be contradictory... I'd rule that you can call any random pit fiend, but if you wanted to call Gardroth the Evil, he wouldn't...

    This is ridiculous, is it wrong though?

    but it says nothign about being a ghost, I'm wondering if the spell of manifest is the same, because it doesn't specify. Like I said, it's completely ridiculous and completely not intended in any way shape or form, I don't even see it affecting anything if it did work, I was just wondering if...

    This is ridiculous, is it wrong though?

    I'm not sure that these are the psionic rules, but aren't they called manifestor levels, and you manifest psionic powers and such. Well, the feat from libris mortis called Quicken Manifestation that says: Prereqs: Ability to manifest from the Ethereal Plane to the Material Plane. Benefits...

    Animate Dead, is it really worth it?

    I hadn't thought of the utility for a player character for manual labor. I was thinking more on the BBEG army of death lines. Jeff, if you're here, please don't read any further :D The current situation is riots are being caused in different towns, and eventually armies of the...

    Why is Jump skill so useless?

    On one hand, it sucks that you couldn't use your jump to good effect, but on the other hand...20 archers each with 80 hp in some trees vs. a monk with no balance or climb and a vow of poverty seems like a dumb fight to just run into. Generally jump can be made much better with a mix of climb...

    Animate Dead, is it really worth it?

    I guess it's not so great in 3.0 then... seems fun for 3.5. Thanks for the info, but can you really blame me for not wanting to spend an additional $90?

    Animate Dead, is it really worth it?

    Getting the book Libris Mortis and seeing the warlocks animate dead invocation (the dead walk I think) inspired me to look back at the exact text of animate dead, and seeing it again just made me wonder if having it as a spell/invocation was really worth it. I mean, let's say a 9th level caster...

    Dispell a necrotic cyst?

    Libris Mortis. The spell chapter, under "n" I don't believe you can dispel it unless you prepared to counter it when it was actually cast, much like you cannot dispel the damage a fireball or magic missle deals you. I believe you could house rule that the heal spell (or other varoius problem...

    Researching Invocations?

    My first question is, can invocations be researched or is there any flavor in the warlock class that would prohibit this? If not, would it be reasonable to come up with a way to research them (researching wouldn't really be the right word, but since bards and sorcerers can "research" spells...

    Makin a Warlock

    perhaps more uses per day as still and silent aren't nearly as powerful, or both together would be a good feat.

    Researching spells for the bard and sorcerer.

    Actually, I believe it says that bards and sorcerers can research new spells, but not beyond their normal limit. Maybe a feat that is sort of like the extra spell feat, but instead of just getting a spell you gain a certain number of research slots, which would basically allow more spells for...

    Undead Characters

    I had some gift certificates from christmas, and was looking through the D&D books, and found Libris Mortis. I like the book as a whole, and their explanations for how undead could work in a party are good, but when I hit the running of an undead PC there's just one problem: pretty much the...

    Makin a Warlock

    Okay guys, I just recently picked up complete arcane and decided I might put a warlock in against my players. He's going to be anywhere from level 9-11, and I'm wondering what some good feats and invocations I should get him. I was thinking of giving him fell flight and walk unseen, and then...
