    Turning, Rebuking, and Commanding Animals and Plants

    I guess if I have to rely on my DM to cooperate with me and provide me with more animal encounters, then I might be better off just going for the plants, rather than animals, since I would get more HD of servants. Me and my troop of vines and shrubs . . . :D

    Turning Feat question

    Gryphon's tome can be found at http://www.community3e.com/feats.html In truth, I think you're better off going with Empower or Heighten. Improved Turning is too generic--just a flat bonus, rather than some give and take. But that's not to say that it is unbalanced . . . just not very...

    Turning Feat question

    It's called Improved Turning. It gives +2 to turning checks and turning damage. (Prerequisite: Extra turning, CHA 13+). But it does NOT make your effective caster level 2 levels higher--there's a difference. There's another one called Empower Turning, which is sorta the counterpart of...

    Turning, Rebuking, and Commanding Animals and Plants

    Has anybody tried making use of these feats in Masters of the Wild?: Animal Defiance Animal Control Plant Defiance Plant Control Were they useful . . . fun? I like the idea of having plants under my command! For one thing, if you're a druid you can already cast Animal Friendship, so why not...

    What charisma-based feats are out there?

    I wonder if anyone has experimented with Plant Defiance and Plant Control. Unfortunately, you have to be able to cast a third level spell (speak with plants) to get Plant Control (which gives you the ability to boss plant creatures around). There is also Animal Defiance and Animal Control, but...

    Sounds like it would be great at low levels, but less useful when your foes' will saves begin to get higher.

    Could someone who has Kingdoms of Kalamar tell me what "Eyes of Fury" does, specifically? And it's prerequisites . . .

    Feat: Knack for Magic

    You're right, of course, that it takes away a bit from Rogues' and Bards' exclusive claim to Use Magic Device. On the other hand, it is restricted by the prerequisite, and it still requires you to be able to read magic if you want to use scrolls. Also, this is limited by your charisma score...

    What charisma-based feats are out there?

    I have started a new thread, in House Rules, called "Feat: Knack for Magic." I posted a draft of a feat that mimicks the Use Magic Device skill. Please check it out and give me your comments. http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=33367

    Feat: Knack for Magic

    KNACK FOR MAGIC [General] You have the ability to figure out how to use arcane magical items that you would not otherwise be able to use. Prerequisite: Charisma 13+ Benefit: You can use arcane magic items, as though you were a spellcaster with the appropriate spell on your spell list. Your...

    What charisma-based feats are out there?

    Work with me on this. Here's an idea I am working up, as a new feat. It involves granting a very limited ability to cast arcane spells, based on your charisma bonus. There are a couple feats in Gryphons Book of 3rd Edition Feats which grant a similar ability for divine spells. They are...

    Math geniuses!!! Need help with SD.

    Okay, but ... 1) how do you determine which ones are "extreme"? 2) Does the range within a standard deviation include ALL remaining results, after the extremes are included? ---------- Let's talk in D&D terms, just for fun: Let's say a PC with STR 10 is using a nonmagical greatsword. When...

    These are great! "Fortune's Favour" is an especially handy one for low-level characters (like mine).

    What charisma-based feats are out there?

    Thanks for listing these. Does Weapon Panache only apply to light weapons and rapier, like Weapon Finesse? ......... There are a few other feats that build on the Leadership feat, from the Net Book of Feats: INSPIRING LEADER [General, Melee] COPYRIGHT 2000, Michael J. Kletch You work to...

    What charisma-based feats are out there?

    I found the reference to Wildspeak on this site: http://www.stormkeep.net/feat_master_list.htm This is the direct quote: Wildspeak [General] You are more talented than most gnomes at speaking with animals. Prerequisite: Gnome, Cha 15+ Benefit: You can speak with animals as a 1st level druid...

    What charisma-based feats are out there?

    I have to agree. Feats like "Low Key" and "Contemptible Target" represent a misunderstanding of what Charisma is all about. Having a low charisma score does not allow you to escape notice when you want to. Rather, it would prevent you from being noticed when that is NOT what you want, and...

    Does anyone know exactly what Ki Shout does? I do not own Oriental Adventures.

    What charisma-based feats are out there?

    True. But for me, having a cohort is mostly just for fun anyway, even if he is not very powerful. Of course, the weaker they are, the more difficult it is to keep them alive!

    Is a druid in wild shape recognized by an animal companion?

    Re: Re: Re: Re: Is a druid in wild shape recognized by an animal companion? I like the idea of just saying it is part of the animal friendship spell. Why not?!

    I did some further looking around: Allure--makes you more attractive to opposite sex. Requires CHA 15+. Source? Ki Shout—a fear effect, requires CHA 13+ and BAB +1, from Oriental Adventures Wildspeak--something for gnomes ........... Leadership is a great feat, and I probably will take...
