    Cost breakdown, bracers of blinding strike

    I think you're totally in ball park territory here. Speed is great, but let's face it, when was the last time you went into a combat without haste, be it from Mass Haste or boots? Haste is obviously superior, but if you're not in a very cooperative party or have boots (which are usually enough...

    Rappan Athuk: Ravage of The Unusual Heroes!

    IIRC, Haley is now a cohort and has character levels. Oh, and Ziona, fantastic work. I actually didn't mind that Driz'zt was there, which makes you a better writer than Salvatore in my book ;)

    otilukes resilient sphere and wall of force...

    Your best bet is to review the Line of Effect rules in the Magic section of the PHB. (in the beginning before the spells). Quick summary is that you need at least one square foot of clearance before you can affect an area with a spell. Some spells do not require line of effect, like teleport...

    The Adventures of the Knights of Spellforge Keep

    You are SO gonna whack the kids. The other possibility that I see is that you'll have the Spellforge adults go down fighting, then Vek will train up the young'uns for revenge, or the young'uns will train themselves up and go find Vek. Dartan...well he'll be around as an even crustier old timer...

    Can I have your balance opinions on DotF's Sacred Fist?

    Nightsong is correct...The flaming ability replaces the regular unarmed damage. When you read the ability, it tells you exactly how much damage you can do. (1d6 +15 max ain't bad!). Also, the damage is 1/2 fire and 1/2 sacred, which is useful for the occasion that you can't affect something...

    Armor spikes and Two Weapon Fighting

    I think of spikes as a collective single weapon, so you wouldn't be able to make on and off-hand attacks with it. Also, look at your quote. it says: "regular melee attack (or off-hand attack)" Note the or...not and. It may be a rules lawyery thing to do, ut If I had a player who wanted to do...

    Any purist class characters? (no multiclassing)

    I play primarily in Living City, the FR campaign for the RPGA. In it, I can think of only 1 pure HL fighter (18th or 19th now) and 1 pure Barbarian (18th) out of a few hundred high level PC's. I've known a couple of pure clerics up to high levels, but once the FRCS was approved most clerics took...

    Rappan Athuk: Ravage of The Unusual Heroes!

    Thanks guys, this does clear up a LOT. I was getting lost in all the PC changes. So you play tonight? Can't wait to hear what happens!

    Rappan Athuk: Ravage of The Unusual Heroes!

    Very nice update! You're building the tension nicely Ms. Ziona. Metagame question though: what's up with leaving Drexel and Solstar to the orcs? Is it that their players weren't in attendance or were playing other characters? I've noticed that your party splits themselves up with distressing...

    prestige class for figther

    I see you're giving Tempest a look. To that I give a resounding "eh". You're better off with Ranger and Fighter levels leading to a different PrC, as most things the Tempest can do ranger/fighter can about as well. Strangely, the two main abilities of the class cancel each other out. At higher...

    Rappan Athuk: Ravage of The Unusual Heroes!

    Mmmm, grovelling Half-Drow. It appeals to the Megolamaniac in me. No worries Ms. Ziona, it turned that Wulf was a big tease too ;)

    A few questions about Chain Spell

    +9 from the stat, +4 greater focus, +1 spell power, +2 2nd lvl spell, +10 base= 26. I don't think I missed anything. It's not unusual for clerics to max out their primary stat. Also, all of those feats are not just of use in this case, as all 3 have other applications. Even if you drop the...

    A few questions about Chain Spell

    Just wanted to point out that even with a -4 Chain Hold Person can be very effective for a cleric. Our party cleric used it. He had around a 28 wisdom (26 +prodigy), gr focus enchantment and spell power +1 from Heirophant. DC: 26 primary, 22 secondary. More than enough to wipe out a bunch of...

    Rappan Athuk: Ravage of The Unusual Heroes!

    Wow. I can't believe this. I only started reading this story hour a week ago (I dipped in at the end of KOTSQ a bit) and I've become seriously hooked. My proof? I load the main page, scroll down, and see that Ziona was the last person to post on this thread. I ALSO see that Wulf Ratbane has...

    A few questions about Chain Spell

    Well, we've been using Chain for quite a while now for things like Magic Missile, Focused Dispel Magic and GMW. My group has looked through the relevant books, and couldn't find anything to forbid it, and since the spells specify that you can opt to affect one target, it seems to be allowed. You...

    The Deadliest Archer of Them All

    Wow that's really clever...So the fact that the PA lags behind the Archer Cleric in damage and accuracy until the application of one cheesed out feat (Many Shot) is proof positive that the PA rulez while the Cleric isn't allowed to use his spells and abilities in a comparison of actual...

    The Deadliest Archer of Them All

    The Cleric is the most powerful archer going. A couple of people did excellent work posting a number of spells and abilities that the cleric can use in any given combat. The PA can have +5 arrows, true, but only a limited amount and he'll go through them incredibly quickly. A cleric can have an...

    Ring of Jump and Boots of Striding and Springing

    Re: Leap... SRD, emphasis mine: Boots of Striding and Springing The wearer of these boots moves at double her normal speed. In addition to this striding ability, these boots allow the wearer to make great leaps. She can jump with a +10 competence bonus to Jump checks, and the wearer’s...

    Looking for PDF modules 'n stuff

    Hi all, What I'm looking for is a site that has a comprehensive list of all D20 modules, supplements or whatever that exist in pdf format (like Monte Cook's Banewarren mod). I swear I stumbled across a review site which tracked electronic products like this but I can't find it now. So, any help?
