    Incorporeal Miss Chance and ongoing effects..

    In a recent game, we were fighting wraiths. There is a 50% 'miss chance' with almost everything - including spells (and therefore, psionic powers). Let's say I'm manefesting a power that continues beyond one round (specifically, Energy Current). I hit with the effect on the first round. Do I...

    Charisma based classes..

    OTHER THAN Sorcerer, Bard, and Paladin, are there any other classes that are based around Charisma? WotC splatbooks are fine, but no Dragon or 3rd party stuff. I really can't think of any offhand, which is why I ask here (where more people might know).

    Succubus Energy Drain

    So, the rules about the Succubus energy drain says: Now, what exactly does this mean? That once the Succubus has grappled her opponent, she can automatically kiss for a negative level drain? If that's the case, then it seems the only qualifier is for there to be a grapple. If that's the...

    Animated Shield and Bows.

    If my character has an animated shield, does it add its shield bonus to her AC while she's firing a bow? Thanks.

    Spell Resistance and Class Levels

    I know that races like Drow get SR equal to 11+character level (meaning a 10th level Drow cleric would have an SR of 21). Lets say I now want to make a 6th level BBEG Succubus Cleric. Succubi have a 'stock' SR of 18. Do they also add their class levels to their SR like Drow (as above) for a...

    ECL and Character Level

    I'm not quite sure what's correct. Let's say I'm playing a 9th level (ECL 12) Avariel Paladin and I have a divine feat that lets me add my charisma bonus to my shield for 1/2 my character level in rounds. Do I add: 6 rounds (because my effective Character Level is 12) -or- 4 rounds...

    How much undead could a Warlock chuck...

    if a warlock could chuck undead? but seriously... How much undead can a Warlock create with 'The Dead Walk'? The invocation is kind of vague and I didn't see much in the FAQ.

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Harm - To Kill or not to Kill..

    Branching off of a thread from General about Harm not being able to kill someone: Compare the way Harm is written to this way: Harm charges a subject with negative energy that deals 10 points of damage per caster level (to a maximum of 150 points at 15th level), but it cannot reduce the...

    Speed increasing item..

    Other than Boots of Striding and Springing (and Boots of the Unending Journey), is there a magic item or armor/clothing enhancement that gives a constant enhancement bonus to movement? Thanks.

    Lances and bonus damage from strength.

    I vaguely recall there being a dissention on whether lances gained the 1.5 x or not. Now it's clearly called out. Just the normal Str modifier for one-handed weapons.

    The new Darkvision text.

    Not that it's going to stop *all* the senseless arguements on it, but I like the new wording used for Darkvision from RC. They've finally removed that craptacular line about "see only in black and white" and replaced it with "unable to distiguish color", which definitely throws out that...

    Disarm, Sunder, Grapple, Trip

    Well, no more ambiguity now. All are substitutable for melee attacks, can be used with a charge, can substitute for a melee attack one or more times in a full attack, and can substitute for the melee attack from an AoO.

    Shadow Striker and Avoid Attacks..

    So, my character has the Shadow Striker feat from the PHB II. One of the abilities of the feat says that if my character makes a hide check versus a spot check from the enemy, said enemy can't attack her as long as she doesn't do anything threatening (such as making an attack or casting an...

    Cost for NPC to cast a spell..

    I can't remember where the formula is and I can't find it quickly in the SRD... How much does it cost for an NPC to cast a spell (specifically the Wish spell)? Thanks so much.

    Lesser Globe of Invulnerability Question

    I'd really like someone who has a good grasp of the rules (Hyp, I'm glancing in your direction :cool: ) help with a Lesser Globe of Invulnerability (LGoI) question. According to the RAW, LGoI 'suppresses magical effects' inside of it. So, lets say I decide to cast Stinking Cloud with it's...

    "Magic of Incarnum" Totemist Questions

    1) Totemists have soulmelds that provide them with Natural Weapons. According to the natural weapon rules (especially as explained in MM4), would a 15th level Totemist (base attack +15/+10/+5 ignoring other bonuses) who melds Sphinx claws (giving each hand claws as natural weapons) have two...

    Spell Trigger Items and Low Stats

    Okay, the SRD has this to say about spell trigger items: Now, lets say I have a character (a Paladin) who has a Wisdom of 10 who aquries a Cure Moderate Wounds wand. Can she cast the spell from the wand? Normally, her WIS is too low. But, Spell Trigger items only require that the character...

    Stirges.. Most broken monster ever.

    Okay. They're low CR.. They have 5 HP (on average). But, a flight of stirges (lets say 10-11) can theoretically take down a Great Wyrm Red Dragon in *one round* if they get the drop on it. They need to only make a touch attack to be able to do 1d4 con damage. They have an obscene hide check...

    ECL, Epic Levels, and You..

    Quick question. Does having an ECL of 21 or higher make a character elegible for Epic Feats and classes and such? For example, would an 18th level Drow who gained enough exp to make 19th level (ECL 21) use the Epic tables and be able to take Epic feats and such? Any help, especially with...

    Golem Damage Reduction

    Is a Golem's (or any other monster's) damage reduction (Su), (Ex) or Natural Ability? Since Golems don't have either (Su) or (Ex) qualities listed after it, according to the RAW, it appears to be a Natural Ability, correct?
