    Need help interpreting a bit of rules..

    I am guessing they are trying to imply that you treat the character as if they had run 10 feet more than they actually did. Thus recieving a +4 to a jump check.

    Magical Crafting Costs

    I was think more along the lines of someone crafting the physical form of the Figurines of Wonderous Power long before they can actually "enchant" them. Thus have a collection of little Figuriens, that could be used later to make the Figurines of Wonderous Power.

    Magical Crafting Costs

    Lately, I have been looking at a lot of the Craft _<Magical Item>_ feats as well as the pregenerated items in the DMG. I know that the Craft Golem gives a price tag for the body which is included in the crafting cost. For most golems the body generally seems to cost approx. 15% of the crafting...

    Help me make a chef

    Bard is still a valid option. If you have ever watched a cooking competition, you'll notice that for the extrodinary cheffs there is an delicate "dance" to cooking and preparing the food. I am not sure what you would name this, but the skill required to would fall nicely into the Preform...

    Please rate Pain Touch

    FYI, WoTC remade this feat in Complete Warrior. The only difference is they changed the Wis requirement from 19 to 15. Voted 5-Average

    Is Sundering good for Monks, and if so, when?

    To sunder a slashing or bludgeoning weapon is required. The monks fist is a bludgeoning natrual/manufactured weapon so as a first level character you can start sunding. The Eagle Claw Attack require Wis 13+ (for a monk, Wis should be your highest or second highest stat), Improved Unarmed...

    When does an NPC pay full price?

    All I can say, is IF you run a store and sell the same things are "Bob the Trader" down the street, BUT your is half the cost of his; who do you think people are going to go to first? Seriously, you might make less profit in the short run; but NPCs should be smart enough to realize that a Lock...

    Is there any way to change alignment?

    I don't know where it says it, though most likely in DMG, but I know how a character behaves, is supposed to reflect your alignment. This doesn't mean that a LG character can't make a greedy and self-serving decision once in a while, nor a CE character follow some tiny obscure rule that does not...

    Level 10 Half Dragon Character Help

    Here is an odd idea, pick up EWP (Harpoon) and Brutal Throw in addtion to focuing on a melee weapon. Now you can play with all those pesky flying critters or damn fools who just cant seem to get it in their head that they should just stick around and play like nice xp bags.

    Constructing Constructs

    Well I'm happy to know that the level requirement is no longer an issue. I must admit I had completely forgotten about the number and cost of the scrolls that could be required. I was basing the question more on the hypathetical than an actual attempt to generate such a character. Though, now...

    Constructing Constructs

    Can anyone explain to me the character level requirement for making constructs? I of course understand the need to be able to cast the appropriate spells. Also, I didn't see anything preventing a person from using the proper scrolls in place of the actual spells. Is this part of why you have to...

    Mithral armor costs for small characters

    Depending upon the DM, your either going to have to pay 9750gp (1500*1/2+9000) or 5250gp [1/2(1500+9000)]. By Raw you would be paying the 9750gp. IMO I feel you should pay at least 5250gp and at most 7500gp (average of the 2 prices).

    Fortification vs. Brilliant Energy

    Basic run down, Combatant A is wearing Fortification armor Combatant B is using a Brilliant Energy Weapon If B attacks and hits A; and should deal sneak attack and/or crit, which enchantment will overcome the other? IMO I feel that Brilliant Energy will easily overcome Light Fortification...

    Continuous slippers of spider climbing

    using the DMG table 7-33 (pg 285) and selecting the Command Word option i came up with 14,400gp [2(spell lvl)*4(caster lvl)*1800], if you use the Use-activated option it comes out to 24,000gp [2(spell lvl)*4(caster lvl)*2000*1.5(for having a 10min/lvl duration)]. The only problem with using...

    Spire of Long Shadows Spoilers - Tanglefoot+Silence and WoStone Beatdown

    I personally do not think placing a silence spell on a gain of sand is a good idea. Too much risk in a wind, whether magical or mundane, blowing it in the wrong direction. If your DM allow it, you might try placing a small rock with the Silence spell on it inside the Tanglefoot bag. That way...

    Wonderous Item Formula

    Its not the design of the magic item I am having problems with, its the cost. Using table 7-33 on pg 285 of DMG, the cost is way out of proportion compared to the items I listed. And considering I am using the same spell Leomund's Secret Chest, caster lvl, etc to fullfill a similar functioning...

    Wonderous Item Formula

    Can any one show me the formula(s) Wizards used for pricing the Quiver of Ehlonna, the Heward's Handy Haversack, or the Bag of Endless Caltrops. I am trying to design something along these lines, but I just can't seem to get my head around the price.
