    D&D 3.x [3.5] Weapon bonuses and special abilities

    Greenfield What if each end is a different material? I always had them pay masterwork for each end in that case, but haven't seen RAW for it.

    D&D 3.x [3.5] Weapon bonuses and special abilities

    I agree with Selaqui. You enchant both ends separately - each head gets it's own +1 (2,000GP each). Furthermore, each head applies it's special ability modifier separately. The difference between +1 and +2 is 6,000GP, so you're looking at spending 16,000GP for the lot. Effectively, buying...

    Dimension Door VS Schism

    Drowbane What makes it trump Dimension Door? Celerity grants an additional standard action, Dimension Door ends all actions for the round. It doesn't say "ends all actions unless you have additional actions left". The same goes for Schism. Schism is still you. If you die, the Schism effect...

    D&D 3.x [v.3.5] Polymorph

    I'm actually quite familiar with many aspects of mathematical theory. I don't find it difficult at all to grasp these concepts. What you are failing to grasp is that, through certain mechanics that weren't properly thought out, a character can become limitless. He can have anything he can...

    Vampire weirdness....

    Nezkrul I think he was referring to the text of Fast Healing. If we break it down, it could mean either or two things. The first is your interpretation: If reduced to 0 hit points in combat, it instead assumes Gaseous Form in which case he attempts to find his coffin within two hours. If...

    D&D 3.x [v.3.5] Polymorph

    It isn't possible, because if there is an instance where something has more HD than you, you can take two actions (of your infinite actions) to gain more HD than them. So, even if you have 1i and they have 20i, you can then gain i^i with the knowledge that >i exists. We know that...

    Character Help

    The Duskblade's abilities don't require that you use a spell on the Duskblade's spell list, so dual classing with Wizard or Sorcerer will provide you with the larger variety of spells to use with the Duskblade's channeling abilities.

    D&D 3.x [v.3.5] Polymorph

    kingius Actually, it's an EX ability, AMS doesn't affect it. With AMA, any conceivable reality that can interact with you at any level is game. If something or someone has an ability you want, you have it. If a creature in another universe has more something than you, then you have more...

    D&D 3.x [v.3.5] Polymorph

    kingius Having infinite actions or unlimited wishes, using AMA to become an immortal, invulnerable deity with all the powers of all the deities (by level 5, no less) with infinite ability points (and thereby skills and saves), or any of the other awesome cheese provided by loopholes/ability...

    D&D 3.x [v.3.5] Polymorph

    I don't believe Alter Self/Polymorph are broken. They're fine in my games. I was showing you broken mechanics - infinite action loops and free wishes, to name just a few. "Waving a sword and then walking 500' and hacking people to death" is an example of an infinite action loop. "Finger of...

    D&D 3.x [v.3.5] Polymorph

    kingius Again, you're missing the point. My players are very laid back individuals, and when we bring in ringers or new players, the first thing that is mentioned is that everything in the game should be played out in game, and not leak into reality. However, when a player decides to use...

    D&D 3.x [v.3.5] Polymorph

    This only works on the most minor of culprits. When the DM plays the Synchronicity (or any number of other) trick on the players, they throw their Mt. Dew in his face and walk out the door.

    Vampire weirdness....

    It's right under "Fast Healing", for quick and easy reference. It doesn't necessarily die at 0 hit points. The text under Fast Healing suggests that it it has two hours to return home, regardless. I assume RAI would argue that if he can't assume Gaseous Form that he just dies, but the wording...

    D&D 3.x [v.3.5] Polymorph

    No one used the "broken" word in this thread, as far as I can recall, and no one was arguing that it was, indeed, broken. However, to address the core of your concern, kingius; (assuming it were broken) is it any less broken a tactic when the first thing that comes to your mind is to use that...

    Dimension Door VS Schism

    I'd say that Dimension Door takes precedence over Schism. Other spells do not have the clause "no other actions until your next turn." Schism doesn't grant you an additional turn, just an additional action. Now, you could take an action and then use your Schism action to manifest Dimension...

    Vampire vs Farmhouse & Grey Render

    By RAW, Vampirism can be given to humanoids or monstrous humanoids. Gray Renders are magical beasts.

    Greenfield You said "I disagree that either one is better than Fly, for flying." I was just showing you how you were wrong, so you had a better understanding. I'm not sure Fly should be moved from lv3. Like Fireball, Lightning Bolt, and Haste, Fly has this iconic place at lv3 that should be a...

    Vampire vs Farmhouse & Grey Render

    Empath Blood Drain and Fast Healing are Ex, so Gray Render should still lose.
