    Why do all paladins, monks, and druids seem exactly the same?

    The paladin in my Savage Tides game was whining at me about how much they "nerfed" Divine Might in 3.5 - he wanted the 3.0 version of the feat where the effects of activating the feat last for one round per point of Cha bonus. ...on a character who, by the way, has a starting STR of 20.

    Rpgnow creditcard information stolen

    If the piddly store is defrauding them, they can cancel the charges with the CC company - the merchant has the burden of proof that you received the merchandise they claimed you bought, AFAIK. OTOH, paypal has been known to freeze accounts for rather arbitrary reasons, which makes people wary...

    Two quick thoughts about all these new fangled base classes . . .

    Okay, so there are a few 2e-specific things in that character that don't translate to 3e. What's the *concept* behind the character, though? IMO, describing a few class features does not a concept make.

    Alignment Ramifications of Poison Use

    A friend of mine was rolling up a good-aligned character recently, and he mentioned that he wanted to use "the Good version of poison" because "poison is evil". I've looked in the DMG, but I can't find anything that specifies that poison is evil. The only evidence I've come up with is: *...

    Is there any further news on the cave?

    Collaborative Cave!

    Errant apostrophes removed. Also, what's up with the un-choker-like tactics? The SRD says they like to ambush the *last* guy in line, not the first one. Of course, it also says they like to work alone, but a single CR 4 (or should it be 5? I'm not sure anymore) creature just wouldn't be...

    Collaborative Cave!

    Yep, I'm really busy. Ghzzdit's class levels should go away to drop him to more of a speed-bump challenge level. In room 2a, I wrote it as though there's an obvious ground passage, trapped, with a non-obvious second tunnel up through the ceiling - that's the one the dragon uses to avoid the...

    Collaborative Cave!

    1. The Good News: I have a pretty decent idea of how to price an intelligent weapon, assuming I sit down with the book and work through that section. 2. The Bad News: Given how busy I am with work, I'm not likely to have time to do that ... or to re-stat Ghzzdit the Choker down a couple of...

    Equip my 10th level evoker! (Please?)

    What type of arcane role do you have in mind for him? Straight-up blaster, controller, saboteur, support, what? A good "base" gear package for a 10th level wizard is: Headband of Intellect +4 (16k gp) Cloak of Resistance +4 (16k gp) Amulet of Health +2 (4k gp) Lesser Rod of Metamagic Maximize...

    XP as Cash for Items and Spells

    *lose Spelling nitpicking aside (beware pet peeves!), the XP gap between item crafters and other party members is self-correcting once the rest of the party is truly a level ahead - the item crafter earns more XP per encounter, so he catches up to the others fairly quickly.
