Great wyrm red dragon, contingency, heal. Good for a jaw-dropper every now and then. :D. Fletch!

We had a rogue with a set of them. If you want to house-rule the item to restrict it to an item (not a bad idea for flavor reasons), it might reduce the cost a bit. -Fletch!

+1 keen wounding screaming frost shock (adamantine anyweapon) If you have MMII, the Greater Wounding property (2 pts/rd, +4 bonus) is tasty, too. For that one, I'd go: +1 keen greater wounding screaming (adamantine anyweapon) If DR did become a problem, just swap out any +1-equivalent...

The DC is based off the spell level of the prerequisite, so you could always heighten the appropriate spell in the item prerequisites. This applies for any item. Your DM might require that you remake the item from scratch to get this effect, though our group's precedent would allow an...

Good question. The spell that was 'lost' was the Daylight, so Iwould vote for that. Otherwise, it detracts from the cleric's spontaneous conversion; something I don;t like to see from items that are otherwise 'beneficial'. The pearl would give more flexibility that way, since you could...

If you are 16th level and not fighting stuff with 35-40 AC, you are getting off easy. What are you doing, lining up orc children along a wall at 10 paces and blasting 'em? :rolleyes: A +2 bonus adds up over time. Sure, on any one roll, it is likely to not be a factor. But it will be maybe...

I played an archer-specialist (AA and OoBI) up through 21st level. I took Sharp-Shooting about half way through. It was excellent to ignore quarter cover and get a little edge against other amounts of cover. I found it to be, in the long run, a good feat selection, even though I originally...

The Con drain would carry over. Since your hit points are based on your original Con, you would lose hit points based on your original Con. 12 drops to 9, and you lose 2hp/level. Ouch. -Fletch!

Both are 144 square inches... ;) -Fletch!

I would keep the 'objects take half damage from energy attacks', but would rule that the hardness of the wood is not applicable. Acid often ignores the hardness of objects, and I think that would work well in this case. You might even allow the wall to do full damage after the first round...

Although it does not use the specific terminology, I would treat this as a bonus feat. And you must qualify for any feat that you select as a bonus feat. -Fletch!

I'll give you that. But as a spell from a magic item, it has the minimum saving throw DC (14 for a 3rd level spell) and ability to penetrate SR, and so is really trivial except against minor monsters. Compared to what a cleric could do against such monsters with a turning attempt, I wouldn't...

Actually, that's probably why the article was so good... I have played with far too many gamers that felt that choosing paladin as a class eliminated any variations caused by race, other classes, culture, background, adventuring history and even the different gods that could be served. To...

I was thinking of redoing the Bard for an upcoming campaign. I have a player (my wife, actually) who really likes bards. If his variant makes sense, then it could save a lot of work for me. Is that in BoEM2? I would really like to see the alternate combat section of such a book. I'm in the...

Ooh, takyris, that is tasty. That is the best 'non-standard' option yet. -Fletch!

Do you stack their sorcerer levels with their innate ability? -Fletch!

I tend to use them in two particular roles: 1) enforcers of cosmic balance or decree 2) an ancient, dying race passed it heyday If the latter, they tend to get used as adventure villains. For the former, dragons tend to be used as powerful, recurring NPCs that have campaign plot threads...

For once, I agree with the quick and simple method. There are enough other things that are actually worth worrying about. -Fletch!

I was impressed with this article, and that in itself particularly amazed me because the whole debate around codes of condict has become irritating. To have some guidelines that allow for variation (religion, culture, etc.) - the game would have been much better if only such a concept were...

The best I can get is 9 at 20th level: 5 with a full attack using rapid shot, and four more on a haste action using manyshot. However, at this level, cure serious wounds is largely irrelevant. When you really need it (maximum of 10th or 11th level), you'll only get 4 for the rapid shot and 3...
