As promised, attached is the fiendish ape. There are actually three apes listed in these files. The first file is simply a fiendish ape suited for Summon Monster III, but with Augment Summoning stats. I did my best to calculate all the little details, including increasing its climb score and...

I'm open to the other monster choices. But I think that, for example, the celestial bison is the only 5 HD option in the Summon Monster 3 list, and being 5 HD gives it DR, which is a boon. Plus its damage output is pretty scary. If there are better suggestions -- especially for the Summon...

OK, sure. I'll start with the Summon Monster sheets that I've made for myself. These stat blocks have Augmented Summoning worked into them, so they are not the normal stat blocks you'd get from the SRD. I adjusted not only the attacks & hit points (due to the extra str & con) but all the...

"A wizard can take a reserve feat as her bonus feat at 5th, 10th, 15th, or 20th level, in place of a metamagic or item creation feat." Page 37, Complete Mage. What is this wizardry!?!?! I must haev it!!! OK, this is looking good now. 6th. imbued summoning (phb2: apply Displacement...

Thanks! And I found something with potential, too! Imbued Summoning is metamagic, so it'll help to get me to Energy Substitution. Also, I saw the text said that you could confer a spell on "creatures" that you summon. I thought that couldn't be right -- if you summon 3 lower-level critters...

Scott, if you can give me a reason or example why it's worth it, I'd consider it. I just usually dislike having to move a spell into a higher slot -- I find I'd rather just cast one of the higher level spells. But if a lower level spell can be augmented so awesomely that the tradeoff is worth...

My wizard just hit level 6. I had some ideas for the level 6 feat, but they petered out, as I didn't realize some feats had prerequisites that my character is missing. He is a conjuration specialist (Abrupt Jaunt cheese, which I deemed necessary due to my poor stat rolls). His abilities are...

This. I was playing a wizard with the Abrupt Jaunt ACF (free mini-teleport). During the 1st or 2nd game, the party tank went down, flanked by bad guys. I was standing next to the cleric. Knowing that unconscious = willing (according to RAW), I told the cleric, "get ready to heal the...

This. By the time a PC has a +19 to Sense Motive, I assume there is some serious skill there. In our world, these are the judges who have the uncanny ability to determine within minutes who the lying scumbag is when two people come before the court to resolve a dispute. These are the police...

I honestly don't care which feat gets used, and hearing about the nuances of rules interpretation here, I'd probably go with Rapid Reload too. My thought is merely that I want slings to have a shot at full BAB multiple attacks, and however we get there is fine (even a new custom feat), so long...

Thanks Tovec! Here are some other things I've found. Miniatures Handbook Bullet of Sound: +1 sling bullet, 1d8 sonic damage to all within a 10' radius, save or be stunned for 1 round. Price 196 gp. Kingdoms of Kalamar Sculpted shot: looks like an iron golf ball, as normal sling bullet...

Well terrya, again, it sounds like you are wedded to a lot of ideas that are causing you and/or your players to abandon the game. If they refuse to retreat and yet refuse to start a new campaign when the current one TPKs, maybe that's everyone's way of saying, "Thanks for all the D&D, but we're...

1. reconsider You know, in another thread just yesterday I was busily defending someone who was doing weird stuff in his game, because he loved doing it. But here, I'm just not sure what to say. You're doing stuff that makes you unhappy because... it's the "principle" of the thing? In a...

Are they that deadly? I noticed in the Wikipedia page this quote: The ranges discussed there are also substantially greater than anything I've seen in the D&D books. I started looking on youtube.com for anything that might back up such a bold assertion, and found some fun things but nothing...

All I know is that after reading the thread, the impression I have is that some people were deliberately downplaying Tolkein's influence to a debatable level because it was a convenient way to undermine Water Bob's reasons for enjoying his style of game. Like we are bullying him for "having fun...

I never wrote any such thing.

That's a great point. I'll share it with her. Having said that, what she's decided is that she really wants tessellated armor. Since she cannot afford it, we've done this: helm of protection (like the ring, but takes up a different slot) mithral breastplate, with restful crystal That got...

Having read all 6 pages, I would just like to say that those of you downplaying Tolkein's influence are coming off as very disingenuous. That is all.

Oooohhh. OK, that makes it a little more sane. A little. OK, I think she'd like the Battle Leader's Charge, which she could get at 6th level. She does charges often, so boosts would be appealing to her, I think. But I'd also try to sell her on selecting Desert Wind discipline maneuvers, so...
