    What are the two most useless schools of magic for a Necromancer to give up?

    Enchantment and Illusion. Those 2 schools have been nerfed into the ground in 3.5.

    Which Class or classes do you feel are unbalanced-Underpowered

    Just about all the classes are underpowered compared to the cleric and druid. This is a reflection of designer bias and lack of playtesting in 3.5.

    Which Class or classes do you feel are unbalanced-Underpowered

    We have 3 clerics and a druid :).

    Wealth by Level Guidelines- how closely do you follow them?

    I follow them really closely. If not the clerics and druids in my game would be taking on CRs +6 above their level easily instead of just +3.

    Need help finding a summoner Prestige Class

    I'm sorry but the best summoners are usually divine. See druid with Greenbound Summoning.

    Resist versus Protection

    This is yet another example of no playtesting in our exalted improved 3.5. Energy resistance in 3.0 was applied per round rather than per attack. Additionally Prot from Energy was uncapped. Hence at higher levels Resist Energy gradually became less useful and Prot from Energy gradually became...

    Heirophant PrC - Is it a good Choice?

    The best ability of the Hierophant is the improved caster levels as it can be used to boost the Holy Word series of spells into the stratosphere and pretty much own epic level encounters of the appropriate CR.

    New FAQ at Wizards - Behind the Screen with magic item creation

    OMG. I wish they'd just make up their minds about the stupid minimum caster level already!!

    Mystic theurge vs pure wizard/cleric

    It's worth giving up wizard levels for the class because you gain overpowered cleric spells and domains. It's not worth giving up cleric levels because your spell level decreases and your turning capacity decreases.

    Sick of Magic Missile

    Arcane magic have been nerfed into the ground. What do you expect your players to do? Go through a hugely elaborate plan to cast use animate rope on the uncousious enemy? Anyway, be thankful that your players are overusing magic missile. At least they're not abusing Produce Flame or Entangle or...

    How important do you think game balance is?

    Why should I pay $$$ for gaming material that I have to alter heavily later because it contains horribly unbalanced material that will derail my campaign? The more unbalanced the material is the more work for the DM to do integrate it into the campaign. The more work the DM has to do the more...

    The FAQ trumps the PHB

    It was on this basis that they tried to sell us 3.5. ie 3.0 has some bugs, here's the fix but you have to pay for it. Effectively 3.5 is suppose to be the errata to 3.0. However 3.5 is so badly executed that the supposedly new and improved version has just as many, if not more, flaws than the...

    Blasphemy = Broken?

    Blashphemy is not a save or die. It's a die spell but that's ok because it's a cleric spell.

    The FAQ trumps the PHB

    Post product support costs money. They know that fans will buy anything they dish out anyway so why bother proof reading and playtesting their product? If they can't be bothered to produce a quality product in the first place what makes you think that they will provide fixes for their original...

    The FAQ trumps the PHB

    The lack of updates to the errata serves a cold business purpose. WoTC will not update the errata at all because they don't want people to see that the new and improved 3.5 has an errata list bigger than 3.0.

    Would D&D be easier if...

    The D&D would be better if the rules were proof read and play tested for playability.

    Its a new campaign and your DM offers you the following options

    All teh same class. I already have that without even specifying it. Everyone went cleric.

    Clerics, Wizards , Psions....3.5 ubbered or dwarfed

    It's more of a designer bias thing. The designers/developers likes clerics and druids and hence they're made uber?

    D&D 4E Despite complaints, 4e will sell like crazy when relased.

    If it sells like hot cakes I hope to God it will cost heaven and earth to buy the core books. At least someone at WoTC is benefiting from someone else's foolishness.
