Before the MiC I was the cleric's bodyguard because if he died I knew I would die. As far as separation, until I had stored enough potions to live without the cleric I was almost his shadow. I did not know the value of UMD until about 2 years ago, but I do now, and if I can make it fit RP-wise I...

Sorry about that I got confused. We are in agreement now. Ignore my last post.

I stand corrected. I was thinking that since you could do a full attack or take a full round action and still take the 5 foot step then the 5 foot step and the move action would also be ok. Potion sucks, down with potions :)

5-foot step, pull out the potion, drink it. I am not advocating potions of course, but they may keep you alive for the extra round needed so you can get some backup, but I will state I am only drinking potions as a last resort :).

I have to agree. I have never bought a potion, ever. I might chip in to buy a wand to use on the group and when the MIC came out I jumped on the healing belt, but once again the only potions I use are the ones I find on dead enemies.

To answer the question I don't think it is realistic to expect the sword guy to compete with the magic user which is one of the gripes with 3.X due to the fact that balance is not working as envisioned because they "ideally" should be able to contribute equally

The issue of balance is so you don't have some low-level ____ doing ridiculously incredible things. Whether or not balance is need also depends on the system. In D&D for example having level 4,7,11,and 15 characters go adventuring together is not going to work. Whatever is ok for the 4th and...

That sounds good from an RP or flavor perspective, but from a balance perspective what really matters is what the spell can do for you. You don't need a feat or spell to flavor something. All you need is enough imagination to make a reason at to why spell X uses more magic than spell Y so the...

The summon spells are not good at all unless you specialize in them. The monsters that are summoned are normally to weak to contribute. They(the summons) should be about should be 2-3 CR's lower than the average party level to be worth using. On top of the weak(by comparison) monster it takes...

I realized it is not as easily to find the old 3.x articles such as "Rules of the Game" on the website. I understand 4E is where its at, but if there were a link to a 3.x page with all of the old stuff that would be nice. Since the information is only being moved, and no new content is being...

I would like for the pdfs of the earlier editions to be open for sale again. Those that are going to buy them will buy them, and those that won't, can't be stopped from obtaining them because they are already released. Anything a person believes to be worth buying will be bought. If you(WoTC)...

I did not feel attacked. I was just making a point for the others even though I used the word "I". :)

Plavin's face takes upon a look that is more stern than normal. As his face relaxes there is a sound similar to that of a cork from a champagne bottle. Afterward he pulls out a crossbow and scans the room for whatever may occur. AC:16 with Inertial Armor(duration 2hours). Hit points 11/11...

It is fixed.

If the OP said should he let his players do it. I might have given a different answer, but he wanted a rules-answer, and by the rules the dragon might, depending on feats, be able to avoid the wall of force, and it definitly isn't shapeable. If you ask me a rules question I give you a rules...

I have always been of the opinion that not all software "leaks" were accidental. If a company wants to know how its product will perform they release it into the market, and then watch the blogs to see what everyone thinks about it. There is always someone willing to risk using the beta version...

I am actually basing my whole character around the concept. The DM countered with multiple enemies, and not letting us know which one is the main bad guy. I am not that good at it yet, but I plan on taking some PrC's that let me drop at least 3 condition a round. The party can then play cleanup.

nevermind. I did not know how old the thread was.
