    Math help with crossbow damage

    I'm hoping for a little math help from my friends on Enworld. There is a player in my gaming group playing a crossbow toting ranged combatant. We started playing in D&D 3.5 but have now converted over to Pathfinder. All except this one player. In his original build he chose to wield a great...

    Party recommendation for Castle Whiterock

    I am preparing to run a campaign through Castle Whiterock and was looking for some advice about party construction. Are there any must have members in the group? I am converting the adventure over to Pathfinder, but the general classes are all the same. I will likely have 4-5 PCs in the...

    Nimble armor enhancement

    I used this enhancement on armor before, but now I can't find the sourcebook it came from. It was a +1 enhancement that boosted the max dex of a set of armor by +2. 3.5 ruleset I think, but I don't have every sourcebook, and an I can't seem to locate it. Any help would be appreciated T

    Has anyone seen the Marshal in game?

    As the post suggests, I'm looking for anyone, player or DM, who has seen the Marshal used. It is from the Miniatures Handbook and to me is the precursor to the 4E Warlord. Strange to me that a new core class came from such a little used book, but whatever. I'm looking for feedback related to...

    XP calculator

    Hoping someone can help me track down a downloadable Ver3.5 XP calculator I used to have until my hard drive died. It had a master page where you entered all info about the members of the party (name and level) and then a table you added the monsters to. Then it had a second page where it...

    Magic enhancements that improve Max Dex

    I know there was a thread in the past, but can't find it now. I know Nimble is out there, a +1 enhancement that improves max dex of an armor by +1. Are there any others? I'm trying to figure out which way to go with a new character, a dwarven fighter/cleric with a reach/trip weapon. Boosting...

    Crafting in RotRL

    We are about to start a RotR campaign and i was wondering about crafting time for PC's. I've played games before where there was little time for PC crafters or getting special items made. Any thoughts on this aspect of RotR? Is it worth playing a crafter? Or should you rely on treasure you...

    Gestalt vs core classes

    I'm looking at creating a gestalt character for one of the players in my group, likely to be a Wizard/Psion, based on a previous character concept. I'm looking to start the campaign around 15th level and likely terminate at or abover 30th lvl. Huzzah! What I need to know is this: how well do...

    Party make-up for Rise of the Runelords

    My group is soon to begin Rise of the Runelords adventure path. At this point only the cleric is locked in on his concept (that is me). What I'm trying to get is a sense of what classes/abilities/competencies are key to the adventure so when we sit down to develop concepts we make sure...

    DM request: recommend an epic adventure

    Looking for advice from fellow DM's. Have you ever had characters in your group that were truely awesome? A character that was just coming into real power and explosive potential when the game ended? I find myself in that position and am considering putting together an "All-star" team of past...

    Help pricing NPC spellcasting

    I have a player that wants to have Axiomatic Creature cast on them. It is from the BoED (pg 91) and is listed as an Archon spell. I don't have BoED in my library. Can anybody tell me the basics of it? And who can actually cast it? Does he have to find an Archon to cast it? Based on DMG...

    Magic item: A Lament and help creating a classic

    You know what I miss most about 2nd edition? All the unique flavor of magic items. From spellbooks to amulets to any weapon imaginable, they all belonged to someone and there was such a rich history associated with many of them. Oh, the lost artistry of creating a unique and entertaining...

    Increasing melee damage for cleric

    Working on building a martial cleric without the DMM cheesiness oft seen around here. Also, not likely to get gods/pantheon/ to work out with help for the devotions in Comp Champ. Is there a feat anywhere that lets you add Wis modifier to damage? or to hit? I've seen it in a PrC I think...

    My cleric, the tank - help maximize him

    I'm looking to build a cleric for an upcoming campaign, and I was looking for some suggestions on the build. He will be in a party of 4 PCs. Other character distribution is Arcane caster (exact class undetermined), archer, and fighter-rogue. This leaves me with a cleric, which is my prefered...

    Bardic music range

    I am DM for a group that has a Bard and they are preparing for a large scale battle using mass unit combat rules. The bard wants to make the best use of his bardic music to aid as many units as possible, including siege weapons, archers, some eventual melee combatants. Bardic music doesn't...

    Repeating Crossbow

    I am currently running a campaign with all dwarven PC's. For flavor, more than function, I have eliminated shortbows and longbows from their weapon choices, so they are reduced to crossbows, thrown weapons, and blackpowder weapons (houserule system). I had a player ask about the repeating...

    Any good Bard Variants?

    Are there any Bard variants around worth considering? I read the version in the PHB and it leaves me feeling a little flat. I've seen a few PrC in various sources that I like, but I want to make the starting class more interesting. I will be the DM for the campaign this bard will be available...

    Help with a tank build

    I need a little help with a character build. I had an archer character in my party that had to go away for various reasons. The player is now creating a level 8 melee focused fighter. His only book for race and class choices is PHB. He will not play an elf nor will he go towards a dwarf. No...

    Question about charging

    I thought this would be a simple answer to find in the PHB, but I feel left in the dark as usual. I understand that a charge must be in a straight line, more than 10' and up to double your movement. Charge is considered an attack action or standard action for the round, not a full round...

    A question on Dwarven Plate

    I'n my current campaign I am playing a Dwarven cleric who has the additional role as the "tank" for the party (Monk, Archer, Rogue, and Mage round out the party). Therefore I am looking ahead for ways to crank up my AC and I've seen many threads where fighters recommend dwarven plate. And why...
