    [Dark Sun] Need help with a character concept...

    Knowing a bit more about information available to you would be helpful. For example - what races have you been informed of, what classes outside the PHB are you aware of (allowed to know about), are you interested in playing a non-demihuman humanoid, do you want a "magic" or non-"magic" based...

    To make a body guard

    Another Living Greyhawk character design question (yeah, you guessed it, I'll be at GenCon). Character design in a party is different than character design intended for solo play - I am sure we can all agree upon. I am traveling to the con with a couple of friends, one of whom already has a...

    To build a Living Greyhawk elven archer

    Can I build Legolas? I had a couple of other ideas with this character: I could switch out a feat for able sniper. The feat seems pretty useful but I wanted to play the character before selecting this feat for sure to see if I could effectively snipe with the character. If I get an oathbow...

    To build a Living Greyhawk elven archer

    Elhonna's Way is a cool feat. It is from Dragon 315 and paizo is going to publish it in .pdf format available to everyone so I don't think there is a problem with me reproducing it. Elhonna's Way [General] Regions: Celene, high elf, Highfolk, wild elf, wood elf Benefit: You get a +3 bonus...

    To build a Living Greyhawk elven archer

    So what is the best build? I am of the opinion that Arcane Archers are utterly worthless. I would think you could get far more out of a an eldrich knight with the craft arms and armor feat. So the only other available archery PrC that I know about (available in LG) is the Order of the Bow...

    Brain Far - Do magical arrows and bows stack their enhancement bonuses?

    Like the title asks - can't find the info.

    Is this combo as broken as I think it is?

    How are they moving into the square of the wizard without grappling? IIRC, unless the wizard is two size categories larger, than the opponent, the opponent cannot occupy the same space. Grappling is a fine option but for the fact that a simple Grease spell is going to make it difficult for...

    Is this combo as broken as I think it is?

    The attacking portion of the combo's, yes, the negating your opposition portion, no. You're right, the earthquake alone causes the cavern ceiling collapse, but nothing I know of so completely ensures that the PC's die: no contingent spells, no teleportation magic. This assumes that all the...

    Is this combo as broken as I think it is?

    I seem to be one of the few people in agreement with the original poster that this combination is uttelry broken. Here are some examples why I think it is so broken: Shaped AM-F, Polymorph (choose your melee combat machine), Haste, Fly, Tensor's Transformation, shield, armor, Protection...

    Is this combo as broken as I think it is?

    I'll run the wizard, you run the PC's.

    Is this combo as broken as I think it is?

    I mean no offense Ridley's Cohort, but I think is a very naive statement. Cute trick!?!?! Higher level game balance is completely dictated by equipment, nevermind the fact that A-MF hoses any pure spellcaster. Consider even just one minor aspect of higher level play: 3-D combat. Past level...

    Defeat The Vile 5' Step

    Nah, I like characters that can go solo.

    In-game debates and rules disputes: What do you do about them?

    Do what is best for your group I've read many varied responses and it seems that the universal thread to everyone's response is do what is most fun - this is a game after all. If your group will have more fun breaking from the game (typically a combat situation) - do so. Debate the topic and...

    Shadowdancer HiPS - what is effective against it?

    Darkvision Camo Hmmmmm

    Silence - Broken? & My House Rule

    I don't know if this is the correct RAW interpretation but it is how I would adjucate the silent image: Readied silent image of a stone wall to be summoned between you and caster. Mage casts fireball. Technically, the fireball would still go off, as far as I can tell. It would not fizzle...

    How do you run mass combat?

    This is probably going to be the least helpful because of the inordinate amount of time it takes preparing, but for what its worth, this is what I do: I first take a look at the mass combat from the perspectives of the PC's - after all, what happens around them is irrelevant - it is only what...

    Summoning Ifrit

    Great response, Icy Cool. I agree with your suggested change of "almost always will try and screw you over". Perhaps I am being too nonchalant about an efreeti's malace in terms of likelihood of getting the wish out of him/her. From my experience with LE creatures (specifically, dragons)...

    Summoning Ifrit

    You can summon an Ifrit as early as level 11. You don't get wish until, at earliest, level 17. On another note, I am surprised at the overwhelming voice against using efreeti to get wishes at level 11. This is a rules forum, not a general rpg discussion forum. Rules wise, as far as I can...

    critical whirling blade

    Incidentally, Whirling blade makes for a very cool combat maneuver. You could compare it to the feat in Savage species that let's a flying creature do the same thing (attack everything in a straight line up to his movement) or to lightning bolt. I doubt the blade would be as damaging as a...
