Can any of you give me some insight on a Wounding Weapon used long term by a PC in your group? Specifically, I'm wondering at the impact of such a powerful attack on Challenge Ratings. If I have a creature with a certain amount of hit points, but now is losing them at an exponential rate...

When a soulknife uses his Bladewind class ability with his Psychic Strike charged mind blade, does he get to add his Psychic Strike damage to every attack, or just his first one of the round?

Condolences My thoughts, and prayers are with you and yours, sir.

According to the table, the max weight for a human male is 280: Base: 120 Additional: (max of 2d10=20) * (max of 2d4=8) = 160 Total: 280lbs

Does anyone have a system for adjusting the CR of a creature who is wounded? I realize that a creature fights just as effectively whether he has 1hp or a 1000hp. That's part of the problem. However, I believe that the system is assuming that a creature will remain 'on camera' for a certain...

Menzoberranzan Box Set (which is 2E) has him as follows: 17th level fighter Str: 13 Int: 18 Wis: 15 Dex:20 Con: 15 Cha: 18 Multitude of magic items - Necklace of Missiles, Eye Patch w/ powers of an Eye of Fear & Flame {fear & fireball as the spells; 12th lvl caster}, rings and bracelets...

THANKS A MILLION MORRUS!! I have had this site as my home page for years now. I love it, and the community is truly awesome. Kudos to you, and all involved!

I have some rather involved rules of similar ilk already in place. Basically: I make the PCs use a Haggle check when purchasing/selling items. This is essentially a Charisma check. Keeps the dumping of low scores into this stat down somewhat. I base the availability of items on the formula...

Receipt forwarded to Piratecat. Thanks!

We're currently in an Eberron campaign with the following: Changling Cleric7 | Bard7 Shifter Ranger7 | Rogue5 / Weremaster1 / Reachrunner1 Kalashtar Soulknife7 | Fighter7 Warforged Fighter7 | Warmage 7 Dwarf Artificer7 | Rogue6 / Extreme Explorer1

I use a PB of 35. It's a nice even step up from the standard array of 15 and the elite array of 25. It keeps the Party balanced with each other, and allows a player to play the type of character he wants instead of waiting until he rolls a set of stats that go with his concept. As DM, I do...

When 3E first came out I got caught up in efforts to maintain most of the 'sacred cows' of AD&D. Capped stats being one of them. I limited stats to 23 +/- racial scores. The 23 number was calculated by assuming a player could roll an 18 at first level, and if he added all 5 of his level...

Start with the book price of 50,335gp subtract out the cost of the base masterwork weapon (335gp) that leaves 50,000gp which is equal to ((5*5)*2000) which means the sun blade is a +5 equivalent weapon subtracting the +2 actual enhancement bonus means the sun blade's cool stuff is the...

Can anybody tell me the names of the twelve moons of Eberron, and what latitude / longitude the city of Sharn is located at? (trying to work on a weather module)

Both PHBII and DMGII have some Teamwork concepts that are great ideas for this type of approach. You don't even have to actually use these elements to get some use out of them. They are great examples for tacitcal play, and cover quite a few different scenarios.

None taken. :) I am not worried about the gestalt nature of the characters; I have run a gestalt campaign in the past. My concern is the game balance of the sneak attack affecting EACH attack in the sequence. I am worried about a situation where two PCs continually flank opponents, and the...

snip Therein lies my problem. The PC in question is a gestalt rogue/ranger, and is pursuing the two-weapon fighting track. The campaign is set in Eberon, and the PC is a shifter. The player has come up with some interesting background, and the character is sound. It's just the sneak...

Can anybody give me some input as to the game balance of sneak attack damage applying to every hit in the attack sequence? I'm about to start a campaign with a PC rogue and a soulknife as two of the four characters. Both are going to have the Tumble skill, and will be flanking opponents...

Can anyone please tell me in what region of Faerun does the 'City of the Spider Queen' adventure take place? P.S. I know it's the Underdark. I'm looking for its above world marker... ;)

Impact to 'Party Level' How does one adjudicate the impact of having a cohort in the Party (for purposes of determining appropriate CR encounters)? Do you average all levels together? Do you assign a cohort's level as a fraction of the whole, or what?
