    Boots of Striding (not those... different)

    Well, the only two magic items that I am aware of that have anything to do with your abilities are the Amulet of Health and the Boots of Endurance (MotW). Boots of Endurance cost 16,000 gp and they grant a version of the Endurance feat, +4 to Fort saves vs. subdual damage heat or cold, and +4...

    Need help making a Jester

    Okay then, I'll go the other way: I'm not sure why you can't achieve what you describe with a single-classed Rogue. Max out Bluff and Diplomacy and Perform and every other Jester-ish skill. Is there any particular reason you think one or more bard levels would be necessary? (I can't really see...

    [PrC] Dragon Disciple, house ruled

    I think that any size increase should be accompanied by the benefits in the MM. If not, the Tome and Blood version is worthless. Also, all size increases, regardless of their source, should change those stats. (I mean, you just gained 4 ft. in height and about 2,000 pounds, you should be...

    How to do a Low Magic Campaign?

    The low magic campaign I've been working on does this: 1) The only caster allowed is the Adept. 2) All magic items cost x5 the DMG prices. (That's right: times five.) 3) The only classes allowed are the fighter, rogue, a nonspellcasting barbarian/ranger hybrid, and an altered monk. . . . A...

    Clerics without gods = huh?!

    Druids. Paladins. Rangers. These do not require the assistance of a god to gain their spells. Why should a cleric? Honestly, the base PHB is supposed to be versatile. If philosophical clerics who worship ideas does not fit your specific campaign world, then fine. That doesn't mean that the PHB...

    Monks wearing armor

    The armor bonus that the bracers provide is less than what real magic armor would give you. They also take up a magic item slot. Monks also lose a slot from not being able to wear armor (or use shields.) Besides, who ever said that monks not wearing armor was a weakness?

    Barbarian and Ranger combined

    First of all, thank you for your lengthy reply. It is always good to receive constructive criticism. Now let me attempt to defend my choices. :) I can see that being effective, however, I wood prefer to keep an "Outdoorsperson" class as a PHB class. (Templates tend to be ECL, and Rage is a...

    Getting rid of Cross-Class skills

    My extensive house rules did this: 1) All skills are class skills for every class. (Except exclusive skills) 2) I took all the PHB skills and combined them in smaller, more general skills. (Example: I took Spot, Listen, Scry and Search and combined them all into one skill called "Alertness"...

    Sorcerer Spell Ratings; where's the thread?

    I, too, would like to see this list.

    Magic Items on a Sorcerer's Christmas List

    My favorite munchkin sorc item: Mithral Buckler (+1) of Command 9,165 gps for a +4 Competence bonus to Charisma, that doesn't really take up a slot for a sorc, and doesn't have a chance for arcane spell failure. They sure were smoking crack when they made this special ability.

    Way too many Epic Level Spellcasters

    Wait a second, you make an assumption, then you jump on me for being thorough? [B] Actually, I can, since divine spells cost way more gp than 95% of the populace can afford. As per the DMG. [B] This would worsen the statistics further. [B] There aren't any monsters in the real world...

    Calling Dark Sun players

    The way I keep game balance in Dark Sun is by starting all games at 5th level or above. (Then you can have the ECL races easily.)

    Barbarian and Ranger combined

    Thank you, Frostmarrow, for replying. Sorry I didn't comment. I had thought my idea had gotten lost in the shuffle (which it did for a while.) A note, however: this class is supposed to replace the Barbarian and the Ranger, not accompany. (Therefore, the only class it may bother is the Druid. I...

    Ranger PrC, Hunter of Karkathia

    I like it. It definitely needs tweaking, though. Some of it is too good compared to, say, a Rogue. A couple of points: 1) I'd only give it 4+ skill points. (Skill list the same.) 2) Drop either Run or Stealthy 3) Make Hide and Move Silently skill requirements 4) I'd make the special abilities...

    [Rev] Will they remove the toad?

    Actually, the Munchkin's familiar of choice is a toad in a can. A familiar carrier from the T&B effectively makes your familiar an item with 10 hardness and 15 hps. (Can't be targetted due to total cover.) . . . Although I prefer a formian worker POed into a janni (then they can effectively use...

    I'm annoyed at archers.

    [B] Why not? (hong is rolling over in his grave right now...) [B] Actually, I said no PrCs and non-core materials. So the point about the AA is moot. (Our archer is a F/R with only core feats and no PrCs.) . . . The reason why I didn't want PrC tweaks to make melee characters more...

    Rangers and favored enemies and feats

    [B] Sunshine, my friend: [B] . . [B] 1) [B] 2) You put armor spikes on a mithral breastplate. 3) Yes, it is cheesy. Which is why I haven't played it. Yet. (I have an itch to play a Bugbear Ranger who uses this tactic. I have a character concept and personality in mind and everthing.)
