    paralyzed question

    Last time my group got together we had an interesting issue come up. The cleric was hit with a poison arrow that did 3d6 str damage. Took him down to 8 or 9. He cast a spell out of the CD… something like Storm Surge or Storm Rage or something like that. Anyway the effect was that he could...

    MIC - Gauntlet of Infinite Blades - what do you think of the price?

    I voted about right. The main reason for that is that the vast majority of the people that would use this item would have to enchant it with DEX as well... so it would be much more expensive than this. In the back of the MIC (which I don’t have in my hands) there is a chart about enchanting...

    WotC Replies: Statements by WotC employees regarding Dragon/Dungeon going online

    I have been trying to figure out why I find 90% of the response to this decision so repugnant. After a few hours of thought I think I have it figured out. The response proves that a lot of people in this hobby are a bunch worthless smelly trolls. I guess for decades I have been turning to a...

    No spell resistance vs. Orb spells? Why?

    That is what I am doing for now. OoF is now Evocation with SR. The others are 'as is' until further notice in my campaign. But still thinking about making a poll... would to see real numbers on how many people feel the same.

    No spell resistance vs. Orb spells? Why?

    I don’t have any issue with the other orbs not having saves or SR. I understand the conjuration part and I like it for the most part. But the Force Orb is just silly. I think I am going to have to house rule that one… something I hate doing. Anyone come up with a reason why it shouldn’t be...

    LotR MMORPG open beta through April 24

    Well. I played an elf for about an hour. No crashes or anything and it ran great at the higher settings but to be honest the art is so horrible I just could not stand it any longer. I thought that was just me... then my wife walked in and said "what the hell is that? That looks horrible!"...

    LotR MMORPG open beta through April 24

    Yea I am going to download it and give it a try. But everything Turbine has ever touched has turned to crap in my book. It also does not help that I do not like the basic idea of the game… I want to explore NEW worlds… not ones I know already. I don’t really need to see someone else...

    Spells vs DR question

    Sorry to ask this as I am sure it is in the RAW, but I don’t have any books around and I probably won’t until the next time I DM so wanted to get this cleared up. So my players fought a Titan last weekend yes the one in the Age of Worms and I had a question about its DR (lawful/15). I know...

    OK, I ignored my own advice and decided to be stupid...

    I work on 100's of systems some on a domain some off. I find it to be far and away the best (right now). I use to swear by Search and Destroy with Lavasoft. Was a great combo. I had to deal with malware almost every single day. With Defender deployed I have to deal with malware about once...

    Have you tried Defender yet? http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=435bfce7-da2b-4a6a-afa4-f7f14e605a0d&displaylang=en I have used everything listed above but Defender beats them all. Only bad thing is you have to have a genuien copy of XP.

    Soo... How has Vista treated you so far?

    Oh and as for the OP: Vista has been a joy.

    Soo... How has Vista treated you so far?

    Yea, VG and the 8800 beta drivers do not get along from what everyone says. Is yours doing ok in XP with the 8800? I will be spending some B-Day cash very soon on a new card and have yet to deiced if I want to deal with the 8800 in VG yet. If you have no issues in XP I’ll just dual boot as...

    Any GOOD Firewalls Out There?

    I could not agree more. I would not recommend ANY software firewall other than the standard Microsoft one in Vista or XPsp2. A NAT router and a simple simple software firewall is all you need for home. Every single computer that had a 3rd party software firewall on it that I have ever worked...
