    Default rule for subtype and template?

    I thought being immune to crits/sneak attacks made you immune to favored enemy damage?

    A face only a mother could love: My soft spot for abombinations of characters

    I don't "crave attention" though I am outgoing. I tend to end up de facto party leader because of it (combined with the facts that 1) no one else really wants to do it, and 2) no one else trusts anyone else to do it...). That being said though, even when I was playing two full casters, and I...

    A face only a mother could love: My soft spot for abombinations of characters

    Hello, my name is Corsair, and I'm an addict. Some people are addicted to power. Others to the thrill of gaining XP or wealth. Some merely crave destruction. I however am different. I crave complexity. I told my DM a year or two ago that I couldn't just play a fighter if I was going to be...

    Class Levels & Monster Caster Level

    Some monsters who cast as a class will have that casting stack with additional levels of the class (rakshasa sorcerers, for instance).

    Laptops at the Gaming table: worth it?

    The problem is the players, not the computer. These are the same players who will be reading spell descriptions when they should be paying attention to role playing. I've used my laptop for years as a replacement for all of my books, as well as note taking and scratch paper. It is definitely...

    D&D Omnitrix?

    Nifft, any particular reason why you suggest something that goes directly against what the OP specifically asked for?

    Benefit of having 2 Ring of Wizardry of the same level?

    Which would explain why my 15th level wizard, when I finally stopped playing her, had 12 Pearl 1, 8 pearl 2, 4 pearl 3, 3 pearl 4, and 1 pearl 5. For a while I was the only "real" spellcaster in the group (minus a cleric cohort... MY cleric cohort) so I got first dibs on all the magicky...

    MIC - Broken?

    The problem is most "interesting" items in the DMG are crap for their price. The MIC introduces items that are not crap for their price. I know this can be disconcerting, but try to remain calm.

    A group of 15-year-olds want to start a game

    The only thing to be wary of is some of the friends may only be playing because their other friends are. Keep an eye out for players who appear disinterested, and try to make sure they don't become a distraction.

    Is stealing PC's toys taboo?

    Note he didn't say "Exalted". He said "exalted," I'm assuming Book of Exalted Deeds style exalted.

    Making "level" king again in 3.x

    I think a lot of it has to do with what you are fighting. For fighting dragons, outsiders, some of the freakier aberrations, etc, the assumption that you have access to that equipment is pretty big. If your game focuses more on humanoids, or more "mundane" monsters (giants, trolls, dire...

    Ways to cast in armor

    I like Abjurant Champion and (Greater) Luminous Armor. It isn't easy to get into until higher level if you're a straight wizard though.

    Are undead immune to telepathy?

    Remember, just because Blasphemy can kill you, it isn't a [death] spell. Just because telepathy affects your mind, it isn't a [mind affecting] effect.

    POSER: Wand of Anyspell

    Your nitpicking is avoiding the point. Assume it is a staff, or other unique spell trigger item.

    Tasha's Hideous Laughter --- Broken?

    Will. Same as all elementals.

    Dragons and Permanancy

    You're not disagreeing with him. He meant it doesn't cost you extra XP to emulate a permanency with LW. Meaning it costs the same. Unlike say, emulating a cloudkill with a limited wish, which would cost you extra XP.

    Alternatives to Loremaster class

    Unseen Seer if he has the skill ranks for it (might require a level or rogue or something though)

    The iconic elven warrior/mage

    Except you're already multiclassing two classes at minimum to get what you want. Many PrCs are specifically designed and intended to enhance a pair of classes. So now you're up to three. Unless they are crazy 13 level PrCs or what have you, you're can either continue in one of your base...
