Simple one: What druid spells would be deadly in spell storing arrows? I was thinking: Poison, Creaping Cold, Earthbind (so the druid can eat those peasky flyers), Crumble (for constructs & demolition) Would splinter bolt (SC) work? What about Kelpstrand? (that would be fun!) Also, what...

Most Archers either shoot many low damage arrows or sit within 30’ and sneak attack while waiting to get charged/grappled. I wanted an archer who could take advantage of their range, do more damage and have some cool options other than stand and shoot. Summary: Big damage (for an archer) to...

I'm trying to make a nice archer build, and there are only a few PrC's to choose from. (as opposed to 100d's of melee ones) I read somewhere that the following PrC's are overpowered and have been supersceded. Does anyone know where I can find the unpdated version of these? Or, if they are all...

A druid can Wild shape into a dire bear STR 30 Cast Bite of the werebear +16str (+lots of extra goodies) +VoP (+6str) = str 52 +21 Adding 'Natures Avatar' gives another +10 to hit and damage and haste. I have a feeling the "bite of the..." spells were not meant to stack with wild shape but the...

More attacks than an octopus and his Siamese twin…nearly I was just reading a post the other day and found out that flurry of blows works with TWF. The issue is all the stacking penalties to hit, leading to the term: 'flurry of misses'. But here is what I thought: First 13 levels Monk 3 (2...

The abdurant champion Champion (complete Mage) is all about arcane boosted defence. The discription and flavour of the class suggests its primary ability effects mage armour, but mage armour is a conjuration spell. "Abjurant Armor (Su): Any time you cast an abjuration spell that grants you an...

just briefly: Can Chain spell work with rays? (single target greater than touch). If so, can it work with scorching ray? (with 3 initial targets) I have heard Celerity is overpowered, particularly with contingency. Is that true? Is it overpowered without cotingency? Is there any errata? Or...

Very quickly: If I've been scrying my enemy then prepare and teleport in with my mates, what happens with initiave? Is there a surprise round? (because friends and I were expecting a fight and enemy was camping) If so, who is involved? Anything else I should know about? (I've just taken a...

Had these hidden in an old thread, but I thought I’d try and get some comments. :) Just wanted to know what people think about these to weapon abilities. They seem like they are a overpowered, but maybe not. What do you think? Could they be easily abused? Stunning surge: +1 bonus On...

2 quick questions: Heroics (spell compendium 2nd wis/sor) gives any one a fighter feat for 10min/level. They have to meet the prerequisites. This spell seems WAY too powerful to me. It would mean that at higher levels, everyone in the party can have whatever combat feats they like. Could...

I'm making a Duskblad of level 13+ and was trying to pump up his dammage output. The limited spell levels of the dusk blade don't work well with metamagic, but what about rods? If I am using arcane channeling to full attack and cast a spell, can I use metamagic with it? If so, can I use a...

I've got a couple of issues I've been struggling with for a while, so I thought I would throw them out to you guys. 1) How can a unarmed specialist monk get the most out of a 'defending' weapon? can he/she simply hold it in hand while using unarmed strikes?(kicks etc.) If it is a monk weapon...

If a metamagic Specialist sorcerer is casting a quicken scorching ray (using one of his Int mod + 3 uses per day) Can he throw in his Lesser metamagic rod of Maximise? If so, would it require another use of (Int mod + 3) instant meta? Side note: I'm hitting Incantertrix 8 next level so I get...

Please help: Can a sorcerer take Improved unarmed strike, then Aesthetic mage and use a monks belt to get a monk AC bonus based on his Cha? (I REALLY want to avoid losing a caster level by taking a level of monk.) I read somewhere this was possible, but I am a little doubtful. (A 'Yes' is...

I've been looking for the way damage increases with size, but keep finding different answers in different places. Can someone please tell me how damage increases with size e.g. 1d6->1d10->2d6->3d6 etc. Thanks

I am making a sorcerer/incantertrix and have pleanty of meta magic feats. How do they stack? Can I cast a empowered/maximised fireball? (when I get improved metamagic this seems quite possible.) If I do, would it do 15d6 all as 6's for 90 damage? Also, does 'instant metamagic' (Incantertrix...

What is the go here? Does anyone have experience with this spell? It seems pretty full on. Stunned with no save is really powerful for taking out big tough creatures. Could this spell unballance the game? Are these rules (below) correct, or has it ben updated/removed? Are there any 5th level...

The weapon ability 'Phasing' negates one of: Cover AC Shield AC Armour AC in that order. If none of them apply, can it negate natural AC? Also, is there any way to get it on a non ammo weapon e.g. throwing axe or long sword. Can it effect a bow and hence effect all its ammo? (that would seem...

Ok, i know this has been covered, but what happens with monks and natural attacks from a polymorphed form? If it is into a troll for example, how many attacks does a level 11 monk get and can they rend for extra damage? Cheers.

How big exactly can a medium sized creature get with poly and enlarge? Can I poly first into a large creature (e.g. troll), then enlarge into huge troll? Can I enlarge first to large size, then poly into a huge creature? thanks for your help.
