an slight improvement You can ready an attack action to attack an enemy "when they start to attack me." You can include a 5' step as part of a readied action if you have not moved. So, enemy closes, you get an AOO from reach as they come in; the enemy is 5' and starts to attack, triggering...

I am having trouble seeing when this knife thrower, even if you allow the ability for the daggers to return immediately, will ever challenge a simple bow-specialist in power. The bow guy has a bigger damage die, more range by a billion, more prestige classes, more cool arrows, easily...

*rolls eyes* Yet another NOT overpowered spell? Not going there... just not...

You are not debating... Actually, you are simply avoiding anything and everything that does not line up with your assumption that WS is fine. People HAVE tried WS in their games. They posted their experiences. The spell was so powerful it was banned. To these examples you said... well it...

very irritating I find it very irritating when people demand multiple builds in great detail yet simply refuse to do any builds in return. At all. Incantrix. 11th level. Huge damage. Show me. PS: Make sure you can do it, like, 10 or more times a day, since at 11th level you can easily...

Good point about the Adamantine Breastplate DR. Hm... really good point. Obviously you bypass that DR since you bypass the Armor... hm... I was leaning towards "touch attacks don't necessarily ignore DR" but this is a good point. Hmmmm.

defense ? It is very easy to have a F/M with much, much better defenses than a straight melee build. Fighter/Mage has better saves... better AC due to long-lasting buffs like alter self or polymorph. Stir in mirror image or improved invis/blink/etc. An extended Alter Self nets you +6...

What Mistwell is saying What Mistwell is saying, and this is obvious, is that in the games he is playing in, WS is not a big problem. Obviously, he knows, and he is right. What other people are saying, who think WS overpowered, is that it's overpowered for D&D in general. In a specific...

To repeat! Again... how many times do we have to say it. Nothing about this build is vaguely optimized to take advantage of Wraithstrike! Nearly all fighter-mage types are going to have power attack. All fighter types already do. Requiring a fighter build to have power attack is not...

What does it mean? "Whenever damage reduction completely negates the damage from an attack, it also negates most special effects that accompany the attack, such as injury type poison, a monk’s stunning, and injury type disease. Damage reduction does not negate touch attacks, energy damage dealt...

Kill me a god Does this also mean you can kill a god (bypass Godly DR) via wraithstrike?

the real pronlem Awesome job Iku! If you are bored, you might run a few monsters through your machine who also cast wraithstrike (vs. the pc's). Like, a dragon, or a lower level opponent. The results will be, well... horrfying. 1 dead pc a round.

lyres of building ". The effect produced in but 30 minutes of playing is equal to the work of 100 humans laboring for three days. Each hour after the first, a character playing the lyre must make a DC 18 Perform (string instruments) check. " Manufacture/create/buy 20 lyres. DC 18 perform is...

I don't understand this AT ALL. If there is credit card fraud, if they rip you off somehow, you call up VISA/MC, report it, get your money back, and the perps get on the VISA black list. You lose nothing. They take care of the nasty stuff (VISA/MC/Etc.). If you mess around with PayPal you...

You keep saying things sike "add a layer of protection and use the paypal option..." without indicating how or why this actually adds any protection. Plus there are many confirmed accounts of information given to PayPal that is then used for nefarious purposes, i.e. telling PayPal personal...

Ummm... to state the obvious, if you are, for example, granting 4 PC's (+4/+4) to hit/dam, and 4 hit that round, 3 easily and 1 only because of your +4 to hit bonus, you are doing 3*4=12 + entire damage from the 4th hit that would have been a miss otherwise in DIRECT MELEE DAMAGE. You are just...

no time but I don't have time to create them right now (at all!), but here are some simple ideas for nasty WraithStrike (WS) builds. All are obvious and simple. "I hit you, you miss me": Combine oversized greatsword w/reach w/maximum combat expertise for a lot of auto-hit damage and your BAB...

This is absurd Two really strange comments here. Point 1: Haste 3.0 WAS broken. How do we know? They nerfed it like crazy in 3.5. The designers admit it was broken - everyone on the design staff eventually agreed on this point. What more evidence do you need? Haste was always cast, its...

This makes no sense to me. Finger of Death has a duration of 1 round (you can't cast it 10 times over 10 rounds for free); presto it's ok for 2nd level? The question is not how long, but what is done during the spells duration. For WS, that is a full attack at max power attack plus possibly...

ok guys OK "WS is fine" people, what is it? It's not WS, it is really polymorph that is the problem. It's not WS, it is Eldritch K builds that are the problem. It's not WS, it is Arcane Strike that is the problem. It's not WS, it is Alter Self/Power Attack/Insert common Feat or class...
