    Adapting Psionics to work with Spell Points

    Power Points are spell points. So, bam! You're done... I wish. I'm using the vitalizing spell points option. The Spell Points system is here and the vitalizing variant is here. I forsee two problems: 1) Psionics - The spell points gives all non-psionic casters a boost, but the vitalizing option...

    Tactical Psionic Warrior help

    I'm thinking of making a magic (psionic, if you prefer) item that holds a single spell/power. You can use it all you want, as long as you pay for it. I may add a usage fee. (It's a magic ATM machine!) Thanks for the link Psionic Potpourri, I'd forgotten to check there :D If he needs HP, I'll...

    Feats for the Druid & Ranger - Please Critique

    Nice feats. If you're going to put a skill prereq on them, I would use Knowledge (planes) How about a third step? Ascendant Wild Shape [Wild] Your bond with the powers that be allow you to assume the form of a powerful servant of good. Prerequisites: Ability to wildshape into an elemental...

    What's the deal with Thinblades?

    That's new. when did this happen? I suppose that opens up the argument that if you are proficient with the rapier (ie, most elves) and take Improved Weapon Familiarity feat, you should become proficient with the thinblade and lightblade. (and same is true for courtblade if you are proficient...

    Eldritch Knight strategies

    Alright ... a different way to play an EK: -Exotic Weapon Proficiency - Spiked Chain (although I prefer the OA chain which can be reach or a double weapon as you wish, just made a gnome with one end +1 flaming, and the other +1 frost) -Combat Reflexes -Stand Still This allows you to get up close...

    Looking for magical way to gain weapon feats

    Huh. I didn't notice they changed Tenser's Transformation into just Transformation ... blegh, sounds like they couldn't think of a good name for it ...

    Holy, Sacred, Divine

    Except that I can't think of anything that gives an Un/Holy or Divine bonus (even holy weapons grant an unnamed bonus to damage). If it's a bonus "from a higher power", it's sacred or profane.

    Thoughts: Core class + Prestige Class as a Gestalt from level 1

    It hasn't come up so far. However, what I would do is stretch the Prestige Class out to a 20 level class. Compare the 15 level Prestige Paladin variant to the 20 level core class, as an example. (Btw, I've been considering replacing the Paladin core class with the Pious Templar prestige class...

    Holy, Sacred, Divine

    I think Holy and Divine are types of magic, usually you are dealing with on or the other. Holy and Unholy are good and evil versions of the same thing. Divine is also a type of feat and a type of magic. I'm not sure of Libris Mortis's use of Sacred as I don't have that book. If a divine source...

    Good Danger Sense Rules?

    or better yet, a red and blue psychoactive skin of detect hostile intent ;)

    Stat requirements

    While there are some hefty prereqs for for epic feats (30 wisdom for Dragon Wildshape), I think this furthers the need for items and spells not to aid in meeting prerequisites. The Epic feats are, in my opinion, designed to grant special abiities to those who focused in those stats. Even with a...

    What game mechanics etc. do you, the DM, forbid?

    Ooo. I like that. I'm going to have to steal that. I nixed the XP penalty because, to me, classes, including multi-classing, are the execution of your character concept, not the definition of the character in and of themselves. Other things: No casting requirements for creating alchemical...

    What's the deal with Thinblades?

    Well, the Improved Weapon Familiarity feat wouldn't grant you proficiency with those weapons unless you already had proficiency with all martial weapons. For anybody else, the exotic weapon proficiency feat is better unless you have difficulty meeting the +1 base attack bonus prereq. By the...

    Staff of Incarnation?

    Can't find anything about those spells. My guess is that it was not supposed to be included in the book. The table on page 104 doesn't list it.

    Elan Template

    Well, I've got some time off and I've been spending much more of it than I should on these forums so it's no surprise ;) With the Elan template, I'm deviating from the published Elan making Elans a psionicly ascendant cabal that spans several races as oposed to simply transmographied humans...

    Rogue with cloak of etherealness

    Actually, I did say it. Then I read Jack's post... and edited mine. For some reason the "last edited by ..." tag didn't show up. Unlike the map, the forums sometimes lie. ;) I'll have to send a ghost with a ghost touch weapon after my players and see if they think of disarming it. :D

    Help needed with building a wondrous item

    Torc of Animal speech, 12,000 gp and allows the wearer to speak with animals at will. Now, I would argue that the torc is more potent than a collar/choker that allows the wearer to communicate normally while wildshaped.

    Thoughts: Core class + Prestige Class as a Gestalt from level 1

    Sure, but not as a core + prestige gestalt character from level 1... If someone really wanted to be a prestige class from level 1, I'd make the prestige class into a core class.

    Mind Flayer Paragon v 1.0

    The ability gain is out of scale with other paragon classes, but I withheld judgement on it because mind flayers are 8 HD, LA +7 whereas, at most the other paragon class were LA+4 (half-dragon) As an interesting aside, a half-dragon(Half-elf) can qualify for 4 racial paragon class and possibly...
