The Skirmisher looks like a good niche for it's role, but I have ask why? (IMO, the extreme proliferation of PrCs and even base classes in d20 is pushed by the multi-classing penalties.) What's wrong with filling this role with a Fighter/Rogue multi-class? I'm probably the wrong person to...

Why? Inconsequenti-AL wrote: Why? Have you ever done any sparring with weapons? Even just SCA-style padded sticks? It's DIFFICULT to get extra useful attacks with a second weapon. Mostly what a second weapon does is make life slightly more difficult for flankers and leave less openings...

So is this a temporary banishing spell? Whatever remains of the victim is banished to the plane of shadow, and if they survive, the banishment ends and they get their body back? Why not describe it as a banishment, then? Targeted only by Plane Shift... As someone else mentioned, that's a...

This is already covered by the Components and Range section above. If you're worried about the flavor text obscuring the rules (which I can easily see), perhaps a more succinct way to put it would be: This spell throws a shroud of obsidian dust over your target and disjoins the soul. For all...

Freeze Soul - or - Disjoin Soul ? Before, the duration was 'concentration, maximum 1 round/level'. I don't know if the spell is too powerful now. An eighth level spell SHOULD be very powerful. But I recently re-read the PH spells, and it seems that with every change, WotC nerfs spells...

meta OFF-TOPIC Okay, first on my writing, I'll comment on your spell seperately. I word wrap at 60 columns for a few reasons: (1) I'm used to email on a text display. After many levels of quoting, text that started out at 75 columns can end up unreadable. (2) Speed reading is much easier...

mostly off-topic I'm sorry to waste so much room on stuff that's mostly off-topic, but violation of copyright law can land people in jail very quickly, and has many times in the past with companies less enlightened than WotC. Thanee wrote: So? Free to read and download (in one single place)...

do not weaken the PCs, throw several hordes at them Just make sure to bump up the CR of monsters you make more powerful. This is a topic I've had bad experiences with. Game I played in (until the DM blatantly allowed his friend to cheat to steal from the group, so I quit), the DM wrecked my...

Force them to multi-class. One level in any other class per four or five levels in the primary class might be enough. Multi-classing almost always hurts spellcasters. --index

errata is not OGC Is the errata Open Gaming Content? Is the FAQ? No, so I have to ignore them. (I've had copyright problems before, so I've decided better to be safe than sorry. If there is ever a question about fair use, I have to assume the (hopefully mythical) big bad lawyers will come...
