    Save the world? No thanks.

    First of all, nothing I say should be mistaken for wisdom. It's an opinion. In some cases its an educated one and in others completely biased as most opinions are wont to be. Opinions vary and no one is "right". Hence the reason discussion boards exist. As for my use of "lazy" to describe a...

    Save the world? No thanks.

    I'm not trying to rag on folks for running a "save the world" style campaign. If that's what your players want, then that's fine. I just think it's become way too predictable and stereotypical a threat. Just trying to get folks to think about doing things in a new direction. As for the...

    Gaming catchphrases, expressions, and idioms--what are yours?

    "I see you have defeated my cow." A reference from the amazingly stupid, yet still entertaining, movie Kung Pow. Now used by players occasionally after defeating any creature that was a decent challenge. Especially funny when used by the DM for the first time. Less so at this point. ;)

    Save the world? No thanks.

    I've often wondered... why do so many campaigns have the player characters focused on "saving the world"? Is there really this adolescent need for roleplayers to be the "most powerful" heroes around? And if so... why? This is something I've never really understood. I mean sure... it would be...

    Red Avenger

    There has been official errata released for S&F... I have no idea of the Red Avenger was mentioned in it though. As a general rule, I use the written text as the overriding rule when things seem to conflict. YMMV.

    Forsaker inherent ability bonus

    Not to mention you can also get +5 inherent bonuses from Wish/Tomes as a non-forsaker. All in all this PrC has too many problems to be viable in most of the campaigns I'm in.

    Best Spell to Maximize

    It depends on your target (ie race/class/subtype), but overall I'd have to say Poison. That much con drain is just obscene. Not only that, but if the initial damage succeeds then you're nicely set up to insure the final damage takes effect a minute later and there aren't a lot of things that...

    Another pre-req question

    I guess whichever can actually remember what happened that night. :D

    Whirlwind, Improved Trip and Knockdown

    Compared to the things that a spellcaster can pull off at level 14 or some of the other horrible things you can do with that many feats, I think too much is being made of this combo. Just my 2 coppers. Oh, and for the record, I don't see why hong's penis comment is inappropriate. It's not...

    Druid / Shifter? Reincarnated? Help pls...

    Uh... I don't see the point. You can already permanently shift into any animal form that you want as a druid/shifter. It's just semantics to say that one form is more yours than another. Since reincarnation states that your mental stats, BAB, and HPs don't change it really gains you nothing...

    Another pre-req question

    Thanks JK.

    Another pre-req question

    Yes... I suck. I really need to get a second copy of the books to keep with me at work for when I get crazy character ideas. :) But anyway... on to my question. Does anyone have the pre-reqs for Drunken Master in front of them or memorized? Once again I'm rolling up a character at work and...

    Best entry into Dragon Disciple

    I don't doubt that the Sorceror/DD combo is valid... but I'm looking at the melee side of things here. :)

    Best entry into Dragon Disciple

    So, if it was you doing it... what class combo would you use as an entry into the Dragon Disciple PrC? I'm looking for ones that emphasize the melee side of things. I know many folks think that Barbarian is a good choice... others? Maybe combine Fighter/Ranger/Sorceror? Any and all opinions...

    Duelist prereqs?

    Hehe... yeah. Honestly you all can rant as much as you want, doesn't matter to me. Just figured I would at least try to calm things down so flames didn't start licking the surrounding threads. :) Part of my helpful personality I guess. *leaves the thread for good* ;)

    Duelist prereqs?

    Help help! My thread has been hijacked! ;) Seriously folks... you all need to step back here. I can understand the fencing folks wanting to add their two cents. I can understand Corwin wanting to throw out his own house rules suggestion for the prereqs. But you've all said your piece now...

    Usefulness of a Dragon Disciple

    Not that I'm saying a DD should or shouldn't get reach, but for the record there are very few (I actually can't find any) creatures that are Large(tall) that DO NOT have reach. All Large Humanoid creatures fall into the Large(tall) category as far as I can see. This is different from...

    Duelist prereqs?

    Thanks guys. :)

    Duelist prereqs?

    First off, yes... I do have Sword and Fist. However, I'm at work and thinking up a character concept and I don't have it with me. Just figured someone here would have the prerequisites for the Duelist PrC memorized and could rattle them off for me. Thanks in advance for helping me avoid...

    Silly druids

    I wish I had bookmarked the link, but it was made by Monte Cook I believe. Either on this board or his own boards, I forget which. The basic gist was simply that the restriction is there for flavor and distinction... much like the alignment restrictions and muti-classing restrictions of other...
