They wouldn't really prevent that sort of disarm. Basket hilts were primarily to protect the hand from slashing or stabbing attacks, and then for decoration.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=GGVJ4vbwHio#t=28s While I am not a practitioner of taekwondo, nor do I approve of it as a combat style, this clip shows just how easy it is to disarm a weapon without application of egregious force. It takes less than about five pounds of...

DogBackward In my experience, disarming techniques are done with very little force whatsoever, instead relying on the opponent's natural tendency to move in specific patterns through manipulation of joints, muscles, and ligaments. It takes very little force at all to disarm an adult human male...

@Stormonu While a hilarious image, Pelor and Vecna being buddy-buddy, I find it innately flawed. As the God of Secrets, Vecna wouldn't be willing to give that information to any being. The only being that could grant his true name would be Vecna himself, and he would be entirely unwilling...

ImperatorK Where does it say that you become inaudible? Also, we were being quite helpful, suggesting a variety of options for something that just does not exist in published works. You were being less than cordial.

Rune I wonder how a Wish, something granted by some cosmic entity (such as a Demon, Devil, God, or other such entity) could grant something that is totally unknown by any being except one, which would refuse to give it up regardless.

Wasn't it said, at some point, that Vecna had even managed to erase his true name from the Lexicon of Names, and thus all knowledge of his true name from history?

Fantastic point, a third party power that doesn't accomplish what you want it to accomplish. You can still be detected, and quite easily at that. You still make noise, which means your target doesn't even need magic/powers to be detected. The short duration of the spell means that travel via...

The Jester and Umbran are very knowledgeable fellows when it comes to 3.5, the Jester especially when it comes to spells. All they're suggesting is that they, in their wisdom, haven't seen such a spell in any published work. They offered suggestions as to spells that would accommodate your idea...

Which tradition does it break? In 2e and AD&D, Wizards got their 9th level spells at 18. Priests (Clerics and Druids) only made it to lv7 spells, which they had at lv14, and in AD&D they didn't get lv7 spells until lv16, and then only if their Wisdom was 18 or better. Druids picked them up at...

@Rune How much use is a cantrip/first level spell to a party of individuals capable of casting Wish? How many third-fifth level spells per day are necessary for a group of 17th+ level heroes, especially without access to Wands/Scrolls? Regarding the lifespan loss of AD&D, remember that only...

Albeit a truly demented way of going about limiting Wish spells, if thats what you want in your world, you do that. You may as well just remove Wish from your game. No adventuring party is going to carry their Wizard through another (in 3.5 terms) 136,000 exp for him to be back to his former...

Magic weapon that causes death if it hits, regardless of it's target. May as well be an artifact.

I can't imagine anyone wanting to cast Wish under those rules.

Arrow of Death, crafted specifically for Smaug, striking the only spot on his body without armor to protect, that lead straight to his heart. Not a pebble fired from an ordinary sling striking against the hard, armor plated scales.

As can be seen in the image I uploaded in my last post, just two above your's, there is no such tab. Following the same steps today that I used yesterday, the Experience Points tab is present and working.

My profile shows "My Activity", "Visitor Messages", "About Me", "Friends", "My Game Details", "Mentions", "Thread Tags", and "Quotes". Edit: Found a workaround. If I use "Settings" instead of "My Profile" or clicking my name, I can view my latest EXP received, but there are no tabs or other...

This class needs a Capstone more attractive than "+1 to exist spell casting" and +1 BAB. As is, this class can gain access to 9th level spells by going Wizard 13/EA 7, grabbing his 60' Touch and 1d8+Spell Level damage, only giving up 1 BAB and 1 Reflex, 2 points damage on bow attacks, and 3 HP...
