Less choice of where to hit you, so easier to hit ;) (Joking) I think a temporary loss to Dex and Str would be good, for role-playing sake as you adjust to the new balance of your body. I like the -10 to Climb, makes a lot of sense. Swim would have a lesser penalty, or maybe none at all...

Paired scimitars would give you higher penalties (-4, -4) since they are not light weapons. Go rapier and kukri for the crit factor. Unless you go Dervish PrC, then you could use scimitars as light weapons. Which is a thought, but would need more of a fighter angle than a rogue. And also...

Go Human for the extra feat, skill points, and the Human Paragon levels, since you said you liked it. As a starting point go Rogue 1st level. Get Weapon Finesse (1st), TWF (1st). Put ranks in Bluff. 2nd level go Fighter 1 and take Combat Expertise. Improved Feint next. With a 32 point buy...

Sorry Land Outcast, which idea is overpowered? The wild shape PrC idea OR The full druid spellcasting levels for a ranger (instead of Favored Enemy and the usual ranger spells)? If it's the latter, what else can be removed from the ranger class to make the druid spellcasting levels an...

What's wrong with just having Gestalt for the first 3 levels? The PCs get the benefits of the racial paragon levels, and then continue as regular characters. They have a bit of extra flavor and some bonuses. Perhaps adjust treasure levels to a level lower to compensate for any extras they...

On the idea of druids and replacing spells, why not remove Favored Enemy from the ranger, along with the usual ranger spells, and give them the full Druid spellcaster levels. No Spontaneous Summon swapping, no other druid abilities, just the spellcasting levels. Those rangers could then have...

The SRD has (from Unearthed Arcana) (or look for yourself at http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/classes/variantCharacterClasses.htm#paladin) Just reverse it for the ranger. Lay on hands and remove disease gives the "Aragorn healer" aspect to your ranger class. If your campaign is undead heavy...

If you cast Faerie Fire on a creature then later that creature becomes invisible, will the Faerie Fire still glow, or be suppressed by Invisibility? The answer may be simple, but I just want to check. Faerie Fire Invisibility Since Faerie Fire surrounds the creature, and Invisibility can't...

From Complete Arcane, pg. 134 If you hit, you add eldritch blast damage. I guess because it says "a single melee attack", the invocation is over after the one attack. Therefore, any AoOs taken during the next round would not include the Hideous Blow eldritch damage. So, it seems a warlock...

Thanks Hypersmurf. The reason warlocks can't AoO is because...eldritch blast is not a melee attack and does not threaten? 1) What about if the warlock had the Hideous Blow invocation? I think no, because an invocation takes a standard action to activate, but what do others say? 1a) If a...

1) Can a warlock AoO with her eldritch blast? 1a) If yes, how do you play out the AoO that the eldritch blast provokes (being a ranged weapon)? 1b) If yes, and the warlock has the feat Arcane Mastery, can she Take 10 on her Concentration check to avoid the eldritch blast provoked AoO? Cheers

Thanks Mouseferatu! Good to hear I can do something right (sometimes)! Clay_More, I built it around the other Sudden feats from Complete Arcane. Since the Reach Spell feat comes from Complete Divine, I wanted to complete the set. Cheers

Is this Sudden Reach Metamagic feat balanced? Sudden Reach [Metamagic] You can cast touch spells as a ray without special preparation. Prerequisite: Any metamagic feat. Benefit: Once per day, you can apply the effect of the Reach Spell feat to any spell you cast without increasing the level of...

Thanks for the quick replies. The chase in question happened inside a building, and went up and down stairs and in corridors. Those corridor moments were when the awkward rules came up, "The assassin makes a double move. I make a double move. I am now directly behind the assassin. Assassin...

How do other DMs deal with a chase? If two characters have the same movement rate, the chase, by RAW, would go on forever in most circumstances. Please tell me what you do with a chase. We had a most unsatisfactory ending to a session because of a chase. Cheers

I got a mirror somewhere, could that help with this struggle of identity?

Lizardfolk at +1 LA has Druid as a favored class. Of course they also have 2 racial HD, but you didn't mention that that was a no-no :D Cheers

Grave Strike from Complete Adventurer allows sneak attack on undead. It's a swift action spell, personal, lasts for 1 round. Cleric 1/Paladin 1

From SRD Emphasis mine. That should answer your question. Cheers

Catfolk is pretty comparable to an Aasimar. The Catfolk have a slight boost on their stat bonuses compared to Aasimar, granted. Aasimars get darkvision, arguably better than low-light (I argue it is ;) ). Aasimar get a +2 racial skill bonus on Listen and Spot checks. That is equal to the...
