    Balance - A Thing of the Past?

    I tried to make a rogue centered around spiked chain... but i never even got up to the exotic weapon proficiency... The GM didn't like my character and killed it in a GM Fiat. He was a lousy GM and did that a lot...

    "What" you are versus "who" you are.

    Well, let's look at this from another perspective: When you introduce yourself at swanky parties... how do you do it? "Hi, I'm Agent Oracle, and it's my lifelong ambition to conquer a small section of the western hemisphere, purely because I have psychological issues dating back to when i...

    Balance - A Thing of the Past?

    As far as i have noticed, nothing is out of balance. Any time someone points out something imbalanced, they are either deliberately ignoring a rule, completely misunderstanding the ability, or citing a very, very, VERY specific set of circumstances wherein a certain ability functions well. For...

    Class concepts that you just can't work out neatly in DnD

    Thank you! I try. Well, I guess I did drift quite a bit from my original intention. Oh hell, I made a left-hand turn and never looked back. But, let me try to make it up to you... Here comes the counterpoints: 3.x D&D is not perfect. It's a game I enjoy, but frequently, I find myself...

    No love for the stupid wizard?

    Except you're telling us he's too dumb to LEARN the magic. he doesn't even have the INT necessary to cast 0th level spells. SO... he's really, really not learning them. he's more or less, staring, blankly, at a textbook, then wandering off and getting pissed at the bar. Just like my freshman...

    No love for the smart fighter?

    Why not duskblade? It's a Fighter with Int-based spellcasting (I think) and it's a 20 level class.

    Class concepts that you just can't work out neatly in DnD

    Okay, My turn... if i may that is, i'd like to review some of the overarching themes of this thread, and discuss the various points / counterpoints, as they arise: It all started with driddle asking why he couldn't make Everything he wants in a D&D character. Well, (1) It's called a fighter /...

    Master Magic Item Generator?

    I think what he wants is a Magic item generator that uses all the WotC Books. You know, one that can roll up the treasure to include scrolls with spells from the complete books, and magic items only detailed in "races of the dragon" and whatnot. Personally, I'd like one of those! I mean...

    There is one thing about the Scout that annoys me

    Do you also move their piece on the game board from the center of the blast to a safe location? 'cause, that would definitely imbalance the game... "I can't make it that extra 15 feet to the big bad... Mage, Fireball me!" "Okay, i fireball the rogue" "And I easily make the save. Now, by your...

    There is one thing about the Scout that annoys me

    Your point? there are a few other classes that are immune to grappling. Like the Druid (who can cast Freedom of movement) and the high-level rogue...

    roleplaying people are satanists ;)

    Mike and the Bots take on J.T.C. in this parody... and here's a Vampiric approach to the same comic. And then there's the C&C adaptation... there are LOTS of jack Chick parodies out there.

    Help Needed: Dark Secrets...

    Hehehehehehehehehe... The Barbarian is actually from a rather large city. He used to be a school teacher, but after grading the same tests for several years, he ripped off his shirt and tie one day and bought a really, really big axe. He pretends to be much, much stupider than he is. The...

    Who Kills Your PCs?

    As a PC, i have seen a grand total of ONE PC on PC death. I caused it. I was playing a questing knight searching for a magical beast (Backstory) I joined the party and explained my backstory to the party. The wizard (played by a 13 year old) said "There's no such monster!" I intoned...

    Good Halloween-Adventures

    Check out the d20 modern Menace Manual. There's a few baddies in that system that have very strong modern horror ties. I seem to recall at least one of them has an Inevitable Comeback effect where, once he's been put down, he returns 100% of the time. He's a tough enemy to begin with, and...
