Thats what I thought at first, but honestly, how many 1st level commoners take hp damage over the course of the day but aren't killed outright? It would be great for a field hospital in a major war, but I don't think a typical city would benefit. But, I agree, the item could be...

I discovered that Duskblades qualify very well for War Mind, if combined with a psionic race. -- gnfnrf

The adaptations are only reccomendations, they aren't rules meant to be used without some thought. On first glance, I'd say that all they are referring to is the monk's Improved Unarmed Strike and monklike damage progression, nothing else. -- gnfnrf

...Except that Dimension Spring Attack is limited to opponents within 60 feet. I'd say, if psionics concern you enough that you had to depower them so drastically, don't allow the Elocator. It's designed for a melee build that will be more likely use powers that don't have saves, but are...

But such a creature is inherently absurd anyway. -- gnfnrf

Here's my take. According to the intro to metamagic rods, Hyp is right, and it's applied at preparation time for prepared spellcasters. The "ability to use the feat" is pretty clear on that. But, that's not how I voted, because all of the specific rods say something different. They say "can...

What's the point? Any library that you live less than 75 feet from and can occupy with prying eyes and invisible servants is a library that you effectively own. And if you own it, why not just read the books yourself during downtime? Or have read them in your backstory? Reading books...

Why do you think this? Is there rules text that says the spells are drawn from the Sor/Wiz list that I'm missing? -- gnfnrf

Immediate actions absolutely can interrupt other actions... at least, some immediate actions can. Consider the psionic power Evade Burst, which is an immediate action and you can ONLY use when interrupting someone elses action. Also note Prowess, Thought Shield, Empty Mind, Tower of Iron Will...

I don't think Mage of the Arcane Order works like this. As far as I see, the Spellpool does not in any way change the spell list of the caster, just allows him to prepare a spell (from his own list) that he does not know and did not prepare. Since a warmage knows all spells on their spell...

I believe the problem is much deeper than just the FAQ and its role in the RAW. In fact, there is no RAW. No two games, no matter how carefully reasoned and read the DMs are, will ever play the same. There are so many small and subtle rules interpretations done in so many places that games...

No problem. The most obvious examples is "Can a monk take Improved Natural Attack to benefit his unarmed Strike?" which the FAQ answers yes. This debate can run 20 pages on a thread before getting locked down, so I won't attempt to recreate it here. -- gnfnrf

Do any WotC published sources have mechanical grafts? I distinctly remember a prestige class or something that involved becoming mechanical, but I can't find it. Also, are there any other sources of grafts than the following? Libris Mortis has undead grafts, Lords of Madness has abberent...

Killing people is not inherently evil. Obviously, or else most DnD adventurers would be out of a job. Making people sad is not inherently evil. Making people sad by channeling the dark powers of waves of grief IS inherently evil. Not necessarily because of its effect, but because of the...

Maybe I didn't make it clear. Imbue with Spell Ability is clearly dispellable. The question is, what happens to the spell slot? The spell text gives an exclusive list of conditions when it comes back, and the spell being dispelled is not on it. So therefore, if Imbue with Spell Ability is...

I disagree with your assertion here. Dispel Magic's function (as if the duration expired) explains what happens after you dispel, it doesn't determine what you can dispel. Otherwise, you couldn't dispel any permanent effects. However, I'm not going to stress this point, because it strikes me...

Spells that apparently cannot be removed by Dispel Magic: Sepia Snake Sigil (after triggered) "If the target fails its save, it is engulfed in a shimmering amber field of force and immobilized until released, either at your command or when 1d4 days + one day per caster level have elapsed."...

Do any non-instantaneous effects (that presumably can be dispelled, since they don't mention it) but with other means of removal, use the "effect remains until xyz" wording? For example, stoneskin doesn't say "stoneskin remains until the duration expires or it absorbs x damage", it says "Once...

I'm not sure if it is broken alone, but it's definately broken when combined with psionics. I have a kalashtar soulknife/swordsage with Instant Clarity and Psychic Renewal, Insightful Strike (the DM maneuver), and a third eye of concentration in my game. At 9th level, he is dealing 40 points...

Heart of Air in Complete Mage gives +10 to fly speed, I believe. -- gnfnrf
