Arcane Mastery states that you may take 10 on your caster level checks but inserts "(as if your caster level check was a skill check)" Does this mean that you cannot take 10 if hurried or threatened, ie: in combat? If so it makes what appears to be a very strong feat almost worthless. Discuss ;)

I could have sworn there was a rule stating that in order to apply sneak attack to a creature with DR that you cannot bypass you need to exceed it's DR with your base weapon damage first? Ex: lvl 1 rogue with 12 STR using a non-magical dagger sneak attacks a creature with DR 5/magic. Unless he...

I'm looking for a good way to combine a Rogue and Cleric. Is there a PrC out there that would suit? Something that gives some spellcasting and rogue type abilities is what I'm interested in. WotC material is my preferred choice. Thanks

Hi all, My party had the extreme misfortune of encountering a creature that I believe is called a Trope. It is a huge serpentine thing with multiple legs and eyes and it has a number of crazy attacks that involve opening portals to other planes. What I witnessed: - a no save, no to hit roll...

Hi all, The fighting cleric concept has alwatys rankled with me. With 3.5, being a FC is tougher due to some buff changes and our removal of persist which is a good thing (although it's taking a while for the FC's to notice ;)). I was thinking of a way to make the cleric more of a caster, but...

Is there a rule concerning what can be a mount and what can't? Looking at the improved familiar feat in the DMG, a Shocker Lizard has a 10 str (33 lb light load) which is enough for a Halfling master, but it is size small. Can it serve as a mount? If there are rules for what can and can't be a...

Ok, we have Complete Warrior and Complete Divine, and presumably Complete Arcane is in the pipe. I saw someone in another thread complain about the name of Complete Divine. I fine it a little awkward too and would have preferred something like Complete Faith as a title. It seems like stealth...

I've been looking at the whole bonus spell slot thing. If you are a mage wearing a Headband of Intellect that gives you a bonus 3rd level spell, do you know what slot is the bonus one? Let's say you prep a fireball in that slot, then cast it, then remove the headband. Do you lose another of...

Hey all, I'm about to try out the Living Arcanis Campaign, but I haven't used psionics for a couple of years now and I'm really having trouble building an interesting and powerful character. So, what should I do? 32 point buy, standard starting equipment. I'm trying to plan out to level 7 or...

I just recently crafted this bow and I'm having a lot of trouble naming it, and my friends aren't being very helpful about it. My PC is a moon elf archer/transmuter from Evermeet. He's a warrior scholar who came to the mainland to study the other races and to learn more about the abandoned...

Hey, I asked this one on a different rules list and didn't get many bites. Let's see if you guys are different. What can you do while riding a flying carpet? Do you count it as a move equiv when you move somewhere, or is it a free action? (Carpet is controlled by spoken directions, speaking is...

Hi all, I have a legendary Snake (16 HD) that has been advanced to 32 HD. The poison DC for the regular snake is 25. Are there any rules for improving the DC of the poison? Is there a calculation for poison DC's like there are for Spell Like abilities or Undead level drain? Also, should the...

OK, I've been doing trip attacks the same way for the last couple of years, but I ran into a new interpretation yesterday. My understanding: A trip is a melee attack that can be made armed or unarmed. If you wish to make it armed, then you must be using a weapon that specifically allows trip...

Hi all, What I'm looking for is a site that has a comprehensive list of all D20 modules, supplements or whatever that exist in pdf format (like Monte Cook's Banewarren mod). I swear I stumbled across a review site which tracked electronic products like this but I can't find it now. So, any help?

Hi, This is somehing I keep going round and round with. Here is the relevant portion of the description of the Sunblade from the SRD: Furthermore, the blade has a special sunbeam power. Once a day, the wielder can swing the blade vigorously above her head while speaking a command word. The...
