Warlocks and Wizards both get spells that qualify as "ranged basic" attacks. What does this mean? How is this useful? Can anyone list good powers, spells, or exploits that could take advantage of this somehow? For example, could either of these be used with "Fox's Cunning" for a multi-class...

OOC this is the flashback thread between encounter 2 and 3 of my game. The heroes, Faris Ravenblood, Fenwick Cobwinkle, Hightower Razorshard, Rosapila, Trent, and Saris, are resting after their most recent adventure in the busy metropolis of Sharn. However, having earned less coin than they...

As your forge your way through the hot jungle toward your objective, the overgrown path that you have been following widens and is revealed to be a well worn path. Faris, now in the middle of the convoy, had given up upon flying overhead in avian form after losing track of the convoy under the...

Welcome Lab Rats, I am currently running a table top campaign through this module with starting my group at 6th level with special wealth rule below. I think I may have overdone it though because they seem to be sticking these challenges pretty hard even though they are ostensibly 2 and 3 above...

Gah. I have been told to "s block" text. I gather this involves those cool spoiler buttons that have text hidden underneath them, and when clicked upon, said text is displayed. I can't figure out how to generate them. Above this current window I have a line with Guided Mode and Enhanced mode...

Episode 1a Yens Halfulfen, boson of the Sea Wyvern, coughed, heaved, and coughed again. Head-down, hands and knees in the sand he took a deep breath. A mistake. With one final cough he painfully expunged the last of the brine from his lungs, along with a very tiny fish. He watched this...

Is there a magic item that can increase the number of targets of teleport. Right now, we are thinking about bags of holding and portable hole tricks, but it seems like there must be a more elegant solution, like an item that just increases the number of targets by one or two, or just increases...

My artificer is looking for ways to apply infusions over a distance so that he can stay out of harms way. As far as I can tell, there are two possible ways to do this; I'm unsure about the second: 1) Reach spell metamagic feat 2) Spectral Hand, cast from a wand. Its unclear if spectral hand...

The MIC compendium has a new weapon enhancement: Prismatic Burst. This provides a DC 20 prismatic spray-like affect when you crit a creature. Its +30,000 gp. Does this seem too good for only 30k? My GM is riding the fence on this one, my artificer says "no," other players are saying "yes." but...

I have noticed, that the Dragon shaman's breath weapon seems a little weak relative to most everything else at the correspoding level. Is there a way to boost this with feats? I am told that there is a feat that can allow them to use it every round rather than 1d4, but I was hoping for a feat...

how exactly does the dancing weapon property work: (my guesses follow each question). 1) Does the loosed Weapon get iterative attacks or Full attack actions? Yes, if the weilder's BAB permits extra attack then it does because it uses the wielder's BAB. 2) Does the weapon benifit from the...

My Gm complains that the Bo9s multiclassing rules are too strong, since they allow a PC to obtain a high level maneuver at first level. For example, a Fighter 8/Swordsage 1 could start with the equivilent of 3rd level spells. His argument is that a F8/ sorceror 1 would only have 1st level...

I've found the possibility of the variant class ability for the rogue from the PHBII rather interesing. Also the swashbuckler... I've noticed several people mention other variant rogue abilities on these boards. Is there a list broken down by class summarizing all of these variant abilities...

Does Shadow Blade from Bo9s really work the way I am interpreting it? Does it add Dex AND Strength to melee attacks with a shadow hand weapon while in shadow hand stance? Doesn't that seem very strong for a relatively easy to qualify for feat? If I understand things correctly, doesn't this...

In the great tradition of the Pimp my Pixie and Pimp my Ass threads from this board (imitation is the sincerest for of flatery I suppose) I present: Pimp my Pirate. :D I am running a shifter pirate in our savage tide campaign and quite frankly I've stumbled upon too many good options to...

Iron Heart Surge is a third level maneuver from the Book of Nine Swords (BoNS). It allows a warblade of the Iron Heart discipline to end a spell, effect, or condition that is currently "affecting" the warblade and lasts 1 or more rounds. This requires a standard action and provides a small...

I'm playing a Shifter (Eberron) Swashbuckler in a savage tide campaign and I was wondering how one would price/construct an item that gives more shiftings per day. Obviously it would get better at higher levels, but wouldn't be as good at low levels. So it'd need some sort of way to scale the...

I know that there are several variants of the ranger class tailored to urban environments. But I can't find them in any of the wotc products. Does anyone know if an official urban ranger exists, and within which book is it located. Arabesu

The handle animal rules gives fairly straightforward rules for determining the duration and difficulty that is required to train animals. For the common mounts, horses and ponies, the equipment tables give a list of prices for trained and untrained animals. For Example: Pony (2 Hit Dice), (30...
