    Shadowcaster Feat Question

    I say no because mystery users don't have spells slots. Mystery per day is different from spell slots. And thus you cannot spend appropriate spell slots needed for metamagiced spells. Basically, metamagic feats only work for spells and not for spell-like abilities. The only exception I can...

    Ebon Eyes spell (Spell Compendium)

    Why does this spall say "The subject ignores the miss chance due to lack of illumination other than total darkness."? The subject of this spell can "see nomally" in dark area but still suffer miss chance due to total darkness???:confused:

    Ebon Eyes spell (Spell Compendium)

    But if a character can see through dark area and there is no range limit, isn't it a darkvision with infinite range?

    Wands for Double Wand Wielder feat

    What is your favorite combination of wands for Double Wand Wielder feat (Complete Arcane)? I am planning to give this feat to an opponent Draegloth Wizard. As Draegloth has 2 smaller arms which are not used in melee, this can be an interesting combination. I am looking for some effective and...

    Template for Demons?

    Is there any good (well .. evil) template which adds interesting special attacks to existing demons? I am planning to use Bebilith in the next adventure but I found that the creature is rather straightforward and boring. Making it strong is easy. Lolth-Touched template will do. Still, a...

    Controlling Living Spell

    Is there any way to control Living Spell (monster appears in MM3)? I am wondering if villains can somehow control such monsters and use as their brutes. They are Ooze, FYI.

    D&D 3.x High-level 3.5e Adventures

    Once I have ran a 3 year long campaign which started with 4th-level PCs and they hit 21st level. The last two adventures were Lord of the Iron Fortress and Bastion of Broken Souls, converted into 3.5e and largely modified by me.

    D&D 3.x Converting 3.0 Adventures to 3.5

    Most monsters are almost equal in 3.0e and 3.5e. Just use 3.5e version. Still, some monsters are indeed changed. Check if CR of the same monster is changed between 3.0e and 3.5e. Fiends (Demons and Devils) have been changed a lot. If you just use the same-named demon in 3.5e, the encounters tend...

    Paladin Mount as a cohort

    Yeah, the mentioning is quite short and simple, and The only example I can find is Hound Archon Hero, 11th-Level Paladin and it's Bronze Dragon Mount. Hound Archon Hero is a 11th-level paladin. And the description says the juvenile bronze dragon mount gains 2 additional HD, 4 points of...

    Duelward and Battlemagic Perception

    I was comparing Duelward (Complete Arcane/Spell Compendium) and Battlemagic Perception (Heroes of Battle). Those spells are similar to each other. While Duelward is Wiz/Sor 5th level spell and Battlemagic Perception is Wiz/Sor 3rd level spell, the latter seems to be simply better than the...

    Against Scry & Teleport

    In high level campaign, scry & teleport becomes a very basic tactics. So, I often let some of the villains cast spells such as anticipate teleportation, forbiddance, zone of respite, etc. But those spells also prevent villains and their allies from using short-ranged teleportation spells and...

    Favored Soul and domain

    Thanks. What I was actually looking for is a way to give Strength domain to an Orog (Orc) Favored Soul of Gruumsh. So, FS/Contemplative would work. Edit: Oh my! He still needs Knowledge (Religion) 13 ranks. Hmm ... an Educated Orog FS?

    Favored Soul and domain

    Is there any way for a favored soul to use cleric domain power or spells (without actually taking levels of cleric)? Using Complete Champion and other supplements, even arcane casters can use them somehow. Yet FS seems to have no access to his deity's domains.

    Vault of the Drow and Erelhei-Cinlu

    Excluding the D3 module, which book or module, preferably something I can purchase the digital edition of it, contains some good maps and informations regarding Vault of the Drow and Erelhei-Cinlu? I already got the D3 module but the map is rather crude and the informations are vague. I want...

    Short Question about Sunbeam spell.

    While the beam is very effective against undead creatures, I doubtful if that justifies "wasting a round" with this 7th-level spell. Still, it may work as I am planning to give this spell to an intelligent item. It can take it's own action. So, at least, the user does not waste the first round...

    Magic Item which gives extra spell slots

    As a DM, I am planning to create a new item which gives some extra spell slots to the user. Possibly, it is a ring or some other item which occupies a body slot and works only for arcane casters or just for wizard. Instead of doubling the number of spell slots of certain spell level, the item...

    Short Question about Sunbeam spell.

    Sunbeam spell has casting time of 1 standard action. And it says "For the duration of this spell, you can use a standard action to evoke a dazzling beam of intense light each round." Does that mean a caster needs 2 standard actions to start attacking enemies? I mean, in the 1st round he takes a...
