    [RPGA} Can Anyone Explain This to Me?

    This is just really wrong. The RPGA is a bureaucracy yes, but each game has a community.

    [RPGA} Can Anyone Explain This to Me?

    Here's how living games work: Yes, you make a 1st lvl character yourself, using the char creation guidelines for the game you want, in this case, the documentation shoud be at the Living Force section of the RPGA website.You take this char with you to any Living Force game you want to attend...

    Help with a max Initiative Build

    Sorry, don't know why I was thinking Sorceror there. Thug and Blooded: IDHMBIFOM, but you can have both, as long as you stipulate that your PC moved from one region to another. IIRC to qualify all you need to do is have spent 1 yr game time in the new region and spent 2 ranks of knowledge...

    Help with a max Initiative Build

    The thug feat from the FRCS: +2 init, +2 intimidate At 2nd lvl, the Iaijutsu Master PrC in OA adds CHA bonus to init. Too bad you're set on Sorceror.The Initiative weapon or armor enhancement provides a +2 luck bonus to init, also from OA. Luckstones (luck bonus) and Competence Ioun Stones...

    Touch of Idiocy.. Typo?

    But Spectral Hand is. And I'm guessing that the aforementioned Monk/Sorc or an Eldritch Knight won't be too upset about using a touch spell. Or a Rogue with a wand...or an Arcane Trickster, or.... You get the idea.

    13th lvl Rogue help

    If the ss of Subtlety is the same in 3.5 then I HIGHLY recommend it. Remember that the +4 to hit and damage stacks with the enhancement bonus, and if someone GMW's that sword then you could get as high as +9 to hit and damage. I would also recomend that you add an energy effect to the offhand...

    Ring of Shield Other

    Well, there's Friend Shield in the (3.0) DMG. That what you're looking for?

    D&D 3.x Confused with ranger manyshoot feat [3.5]

    "However, each arrow after the second adds a cumulative -2 penalty on the attack roll (for a total of -6 on the third arrow and -8 on the fourth)" Agreed, the part in bold is what threw me. So at 16th level with more appropriate gear you could get 4 shots at...call it: 16 (BAB) +7 (24 dex) +4...

    The Swashbuckling Rogue

    Judging by your references to an extra partial, I think you're using the old version of Expert Tactition. Errata limits it to an extra attack, not a partial action. Also, even with bluffing as a free action, I would assign ever-increasing bonuses to your target's Sense Motive roll if you...

    D&D 3.x Confused with ranger manyshoot feat [3.5]

    With the same modifiers: Full attack action: +16/+11/+6 rapid: +14/+14/+9/+4 Manyshot: +12/+12/+10 & a move 16th lvl: +21/+16/+11/+6 Rapid: +19/+19/+14/+9/+4 Manyshot: +17/+17/+15/+13 Hmmm. Doesn't look quite so balanced now, does it? Having the extra -2 apply to all attacks would make it...

    Help me break in my 3.5 books! (3.5 Q&A)

    How does sundering work now, for both magical and non magical items? Has damage to attended objects changed? (meaning the 1 on the ref save thing) What are the new costs and abilities for the flying type items, like Winged Boots, Carpet of Flying and Winged Sheild? Have any of the durations...

    D&D 3.x Confused with ranger manyshoot feat [3.5]

    well, it's either 2 attacks at +13/+8 or 2 at +9. Depending on the situation, you could prefer the full attack option. I used to think it was crazy, but with the arrow stacking nerf, I'm thinking that Manyshot is OK now. Full attack: +13/+8 w/ Rapid: +11/+11/+6 Standard action Manyshot: +9/+9...

    D&D 3.x [3.5] Crit stacking?

    [/b] Not to disparage any 3rd party designers out there, but I've seen some pretty idiotic things in those materials. I don't see why WotC should take them into consideration when cleaning up their own core rules. [/b] Expansion of ideas? WotC has just guaranteed that almost no-one will take...

    D&D 3.x [3.5] Crit stacking?

    Anubis, that's a 35% chance of a threat per hit. (7 numbers out of 20 give a threat). That's a THREAT, not a confirmed crit. And that char has devoted a LOT of time, feats and energy to just get that 35%. Run the numbers yourself with Spikey's excellent combat calculator vs a range of AC's...

    Kinda changing rules without telling players.

    Pardon my...yammering, but since DocM allowed a check to know that the lycanthropes require silver, a fairly specific peice of info, why wouldn't they know a basic ground rule of this affect as well? I don't find it to be consistent, which is something that should be strived for in anyone's...

    Kinda changing rules without telling players.

    S'mon, as several people have pointed out to you and DocM himself admitted, his change to the DR rules apply to EVERYTHING, not just lycanthropes. I don't know why you keep posting that. So yes, DR wrt special materials is a basic ground rule, one that's probably well known in a standard-magic...

    Do Bracers of Striking require an enhancement bonus?

    Well, I think that Craft A&A could have been used with the Amulet, but it was borderline enough to let go as is. Anyways, I don't believe that the existence of the amulet has any real effect on how the bracers should work. The fact is that Craft A&A were used on the bracers and so they should be...

    Please rate Chain Spell

    You're most welcome ;) However, please don't overlook the elegance and simplicity of a Chain GMW combined with a Chain Launch Bolt (only a 3rd level spell), or a Chain Battering Ram combined with a nearby Prismatic Wall or Otiluke's Dispelling Screen. Also when you're able a Chain Greater Dipel...

    Do Bracers of Striking require an enhancement bonus?

    It's not irrelevant that you use Craft Arms and Armor; you use all of the rules inherent in using the feat, namely that any weapon must be of +1 enhancement before adding special abilities. Check out the creation details. Judging by what it says, I'd say that you can add enhancement bonuses to...
