    can you vampiric touch a shield guardian?

    For a more rules based answer to your question, contructs are immune to spells that let you make a Fortitude save to reduce the effects, unless the spell can also affect objects (i.e. Disintegrate).

    the most common non-magic magic items

    Not really a problem in my game, as whenever someone 'charges' 5' short, it's assumed that he finishes moving up to the enemy, but instead of charging he simply used a full round to run x4 up to him. "I charge the bloodthirsty orc..." (moves mini) "Dah, ok, I run x4 at the bloodthirsty orc..."

    [OT] Sep. 11th was the day that I...

    Well, as long as I'm in the mood I woke up earlier than normal, and for some reason, turned on the TV and watched the news right after I got downstairs. It was the first time I'd ever done that. When I turned on the TV, there was a lot of coverage on some sort of explosion in the WTC. I...

    Two nagging rules questions.

    On the golem issue, I need to quote Frank from the official boards. I would tend to treat it as infinite spell resistance, because otherwise your answers to the questions above get really freaky.

    Any advice for a first time Psychic Warrior?

    Get Animal Affinity! It stacks with all the cleric/arcane boosting spells, so you could have the possibility to have a massive strength.

    OT: Do you hate Telemarketters as much as I do?

    After getting 20-30 telemarketer calls a day, I pretty much consider myself to have free reign to **** with them however I want. I don't care who you are, but if people are calling me every 15 minutes to try to sell me stuff, they are invading my life, and they'll know they are doing it...

    Leadership... Some questions, concerns

    My paladin also has the Leadership feat, his cohort comes along with us on adventures, because our party is only 3 people. The rest of my followers, roughly 50 of them, are defending and running the church that my paladin has established.

    Leadership... Some questions, concerns

    Followers can only be warriors, commoners, or experts. Nothing else. I believe that the Epic Level Handbook has expanded rules for PC classed followers. Cohorts can be whatever you want.

    Is poison use inherently evil?

    First, I never said those were my views on poison and alignment. Just making that clear. :) Their reluctance to use the aforementioned debilitating poison is more due to their taboo against anything considered poison. Those feelings hold enough sway that it would at least take a large...

    Is poison use inherently evil?

    What honorable paladin WOULD do that? Not one that I can think of. His god better not have the words "honor" or "valor" or "courageous" in his portfolio.

    Halfspear and small characters

    Because they are the only spears a small character can use?

    Is poison use inherently evil?

    Ultimately, it's DM's call. IMC, the use of poison is seen as chaotic. Using poison in a duel of honor is a big, huge, glowing neon "no no". All knightly orders or honorable groups do not allow poison use in combat, and would have some reservations about using it the poison gas mentioned...

    What can you do with a hide check of 40?

    The only relevant thing, I think, is whether or not there was actually anything to hide behind where the gnolls were guarding. You can't just hide in the middle of a plain tunnel, you have to have shadows, a few boxes, something to hide behind.

    Character Deaths

    Classic teleport. Teleported to a port town, got a 94 or something on the roll. Consult the chart; off target. After distance and direction were checked, I ended up right smack dab in the middle of the bay. I drowned in 2 minutes.

    ELH: Any limits to the Heal spell?

    Well, that's subject to opinion. There has already been a lot of discussion on this subject. I don't feel the need to bring it into this thread.

    (Yet another) Paladin behaviour question

    See, that's the reason why I give my followers a Braclet of Friendship. If the fecal matter hits the fan, they can always bring in the reinforcement.

    [OT] Why are so many Americans "overweight"

    And I'm sure a lot of people who are muscular are considered obese. I don't remember exactly, but the standard for obesity is fairly strict. I actually think my dad is considered obese, but it's not like he's extremely overweight. I must have it lucky, I eat a lot (unhealthy, btw), am lazy...

    Announcing enemy AC

    It's not that unrealistic. If you have 62 hit points (read: mid to high level), then you can expect to mow those orcs down. There's nothing unrealistic about that. Hell, even Aragorn and Eomer have done it. Remember when the gates at Helm's Deep were being battered down and they charged into...

    What's Up With The Monk?

    I don't know about you, but I've seen far worse spelling and punctuation (or lack there-of) on the internet before. I personally had no trouble understanding what he was saying. If you are going to nit pick about English, that's a fairly odd example, in my not-so-humble opinion. I would...
