I don't mind medium armor as far as AC, but I feel like it needs more of a reason to exist than it currently has.

To which AP or APs are you referring, specifically?

Not that I object to this portrayal - but if Demon Lords are now known for instilling madness - why exactly do we have the Far Realms again?

If Psi worked like Ki, you'd want a "caster-like" class that works like monks do - here's the things you can do all the time, and here's the things you can do by expending one or more points from your Psi pool. The trick would be making them not feel like warlock clones.

I'm starting to wonder if we don't need to redefine Psionics as much as we need to redefine the Far Realm. Which might be oxymoronic, now that I think of it.

If you're a LG paladin and someone approaches you with a shady job - don't you now know about a potential crime against law and goodness that you should be thwarting? Would it be worth playing along just to find the other players and bring them to justice?

Why would an adventurer need to steal bread? You're not Jean Valjean, you can spare a few coppers.

This was my use: The PCs (about 5th-6th level) are supposed to climb a cliff face to get flowers from a ledge. One PC ascends with slippers of spider climbing. He runs into the invisible faerie dragons, who hit him with polymorph. One failed save later, and he was a baby hippo. Without the...

Thanks - this is the kind of feedback I was hoping for.

I liked the looks of PotA as an adventure, and I'd probably buy it IF I were going to run it. But I'm not, at least right now. And since these APs are supposed to be game support as well as campaigns ... Would you (or have you already) purchase Princes of the Apocalypse if you have no...

Once, as DM, I managed to convince the player of a LN character to trust her LE intelligent sword more than the rest of the party - since it had her interests at heart more than they seemed to. Just through role-playing. I think the sword was named "Justice of the Sultan" and it planned to...

That'll teach you to trust a yugoloth. I still want to read it.

Do I need to start singing "the Clean Song" at you people?

As it so happens, my wife played a "landwalking" mermaid in a 3.5 campaign of mine. She did not wear any magical footgear, and in fact avoided leg covering issues altogether. She wore half-plate armor (made of coral) and a chiton (Greek tunic) long enough to cover her rear when out of the...

My group's evoker wizard just hit 6th level. And I remember that we all agreed that Potent Cantrip was, shall we say, poorly designed. Has anyone come up with a decent suggestion for a replacement power?

My 5th level party encountered a banshee this week as well. The cleric just went "Turn Undead", the party swiped the magic pot, and they left. Said cleric was just a little startled when the banshee returned to attack her during a later fight. Turned a "medium" encounter into a "deadly" one...

When I was using the hobs in my game, I read the description and decided that, from the tone, a hobgoblin warlord is much less "Biggob the tribe leader" and more "Genghis Khan". So really nice gear would be expected.

Thanks for doing this - I've been hoping someone would. I'd really love to hear what the author thinks looking back.

Yeah, but do you let a character with a high Roleplaying score just roll the die, or do you make him roleplay it?

Actually, it's closer to a powerful cantrip IMO. It's one target, rolls to-hit, and doesn't do considerably more damage than a 3d10 fire bolt. I was originally thinking that it was just an attack, not a spell as such, but then I saw it specifically says "ranged spell attack" and I can't figure...
