    Rogue multiclass into Ranger?

    I'm going to be playing a rogue in an upcoming 4e game. He's a Brutual Scoundrel. Question is: How well would I be served in taking the ranger multiclass feat? I'd get (up to) another 2d6 damage in each encounter against a chosen enemy. Is that worthwhile? Where would it rank amongst the...

    Is this a badass wizard?

    In my 4e game, I play a dwarven wizard. He seemed awesome when I put him together. We're now fourth level, and I feel like I don't hit as often as those with higher primary states. He was my first fourth character. I took high strength to have the option of the armor feats, and because high...

    Power changes for flavor reasons?

    I play a dwarven wizard in my first 4e game. I'm enjoying it a lot. Both the game in general, and the character in specific. and 4e. We just became third level. This dwarf likes to jump into the action and cast thunderwave. I describe every spell as coming from his implement. My DM has...

    Prestige Class? Master of Science.

    Less than a month ago, I defended for the title of Master of Science in Logic and Computation. Less than two weeks after that, all of my post-defense revisions were done. Shortly after that, I was certified a Master of Science. Congratulations to me, it is fantastic to be finished and to have...

    Class: "just" level-dependent special abilities.

    Here's my current thinking about classes. The basic idea is that if you take character level N in a class, you get the abilities of the Nth level of that class. (Note: More than likely, this is either a 4e or a house rule thread. If it needs to be moved, feel free.) Hit die: d4 + some number...

    Ranger Modification.

    This is yet another proposed change to the Ranger. I'll only include the changes, the rest is as-is in 3.5. The questions are, of course: 1. would you play this class? 2. Would you allow this class in your game? 3. What do you think? 4. Does this make the fighter less worthwhile? First change...

    Warlock-esque cleric

    What I love about the Warlock class is that it is incredibly simple. The lack of spells/day reduces the complexity by a really amazing amount, especially as -- all of a sudden -- the spell casting stat doesn't matter and certainly doesn't give additional spells per day. By the flavor text, the...

The What: Dark Invocation, Create Undead as per the spell. i am also considering a feat or invocation allowing the Eldritch Blast...

    My stolen Extensive modification to XP, skill ranks, feats, and max character level.

    Dungeons and Dragons House Rules. These are a work in progress, and I wanted to enlist the help of enworld before having the serious discussion with my group. Desires: 1. Streamlined XP system which rewards role-playing as well as combat. 2. Not to have to subtract three. (Note: I have a math...

    Animate Dead and Arcane Necromancy

    This might belong in House Rules, but: Is there a good reason for the arcane Animate Dead to be a level higher than the Divine Equivalent? I have a game world in which I want Arcane Necromancers to be at least as good and probably better at necromancy than the divine equivalent. Divine...

    Going to be offline for a bit.

    Hi Everybody. And Goodbye Everybody. As of tommorow, I'm out of my apartment and I don't know when I'll next have a reliable internet connection that isn't at work. I'm sure Der_Kludge will miss me, nobody will be around to tell him to drink maple syrup. Goodbye for now.

    Know how to find an apartment in Pittsburgh?

    Howdy enworld. so, I'm moving. To Pittsburgh. and I'm trying to find an apartment via the internet. It isn't going so hot. I've got a couple potentials, but its been slow going. Mostly, I'm using Craigslist.org . Somebody did a sweet hack of it into google maps: http://www.housingmaps.com/...

    Another "women" venting thread.

    I feel a need to vent. And seeing how I've already vented to my friends, the Enworld community is next. A week and a half ago I met a girl. She's beautiful, a vegan, and fun to be around. We exchange numbers, and a few days later schedule a lunch. She arrives half an hour late, dressed to kill...

    How to maintain wealth?

    I have a PC who recently got a metric crapload of wealth. In cash. Also, from a deck draw, he got a Keep, which I got to model and it is a Wizard's tower. -- makes sense, as he is a Wizard. Anyway, I find it really easy to piss away money. Really easy. But I don't want to do that right now. I...

    Going Blind or Getting old?

    Howdy, My inability to see is getting pretty serious. Currently, reading 12-point font on a 15 inch monitor at 1024 x 768 is painful. And I miss things, like typos. Granted, its a prtty old crappy monitor and might even have refresh problems at the esolution/ true color I've got it at -- but, I...

    Fall of Necromancy -- good short?

    Hi. Hopefully this goes in this forum. If not, feel free to move it. This is excerpted from the history of a world that is getting pretty thick with its own history. A friend began this world, and I and others have taken up writing small parts of it. I'm posting this here to see what the...

    Bit of advice?

    Hey everyone. I'm not sure if I'm really looking for advice, or just grousing. Last night, a couple of friends were over. In iterations, but that's not important. Two of these guys are big drinkers, as I used to be. When sober, I decided to drink with them. Given how my body is yelling at me...

    Graduate School

    Since this is the off-topic forum and I'm excited to the point of silly exuberance, I thought I'd tell everyone ... That I have been accepted, and offered a bit of money, into the Computation and Logic Masters program at ... Carnegie Mellon University. I'm a philosopher, so this wasn't quite...

    Wizard's Tower

    I've got a Wizard PC who is about to build a tower. This will be a location from which he will work, study, occasionally receive visitors (including royalty and nobility), and train young mages. This place will have defensive wards in case anyone attempts to assasinate him. I'm looking for more...
