    D&D Player Advisory Panel Ends

    I don't see how this invokes 4E. It's possible it was cut for budgetary reasons, or they looked at the community as it stands right now and decided that they did not need this source of information. Now if they INCREASED their customer surveys, that would make more sense for the launch of a...

    Familiars - Advantage or Disadvantage?

    I have played two wizards and both have had familiars. The first was a straight Wiz who took Improved Familiar so that I could have an Air Mephit. It was extremely useful and fun, except for that time with the Aboleth... The other caster was an Arcane Heirophant, Companion Familiar was just...

    Have you ever used a ballista or catapult?

    In one "chapter" of a campaign the party I was in needed to defend a keep from a small group of Giants and ogres, and then an invading army. For a little bit of one battle it was seige weapons versus Giants throwing rocks. I wasn't personally involved so much as I was the wizard so I was...

    Players: which prestige class did you actually play?

    I've a Drd/Wiz/MT/ArcH right now (Races of the Wild came out at MT1, I was so happy). Loremaster is something I've also almost played, the DM moved before I got that level :(

    Are You a Good Tactician?

    I got game. I have a tendency to play Wizards and if I have a decent idea what's coming up it's going to be appropriately trounced. I am generally a rather conservative tactician so there are more aggressive measures to accomplish victory, but they likely will not be as safe.

    Archers: viable archetype?

    There's a winged human archer (Ftr4/Rgr4) in my party and he's just ridiculous. I think he's taken a great deal of the archery feats, Weapon Focus and Specialization and plans to do two prestige classes, Order of the Bow Initiate and Cragtop Archer. We did some calculations and with the...

    Sandstorm- any questions?

    I'm currently playing a Druid, how happy am I going to be with the spells? Are we talking absurd power here?

    RANT - Obsession with Clerics

    Requiring a Cleric does depend on the campaign and play style of the group. In my first game we would've died over and over again without having a smart cleric. In the game I'm playing now, we don't have one. I have Druid levels (going to AH) and the Spontaneous Healer feat. Even so my more...

    My sordid tale of NG vs CN and reincarnating that which tried to kill us

    I'm going to try to answer most questions with a nice long backgrounder for you guys. Thanks for reading though you can likely just go to the end and start advising. Alright the background: Campaign: High Power stats (start with a +12 total) at about 8th level. DM was overly generous...

    Races of the Wild game use?

    I already had a Drd3/Wiz3/MT1 when people started to find copies of Races of the Wild, so right now I love that book.

    Computers/Laptops at the gaming table?

    We have a couple laptops around the gaming table. They're not in constant use, sometimes for looking things up. I probably use it the most out of all of us. I make the most beautiful spreadsheets for dividing up treasure.

    Coolest. Gaming Set-up. Evar.

    I have to say that our setup with a simple playmat with the 1" grid, some minatures and a small horde of Lego men feels woefully inadequate at this point. After showing your setup to my roommates we came up with three conclusions: 1) We're poor students and you are not 2) You're higher level...

    What race is the Wizard in your group? (take II)

    I have always ended up playing the caster, mostly because I really like the magic side of the fantasy (I can already swing a sword around). First campaign I played a Sun Elf wizard, and in the current campaign a Human Druid/Wizard/Mystic Theurge (and yes, I'm totally pysched about Races of the...

    How old were you when you started playing D&D?

    20, last year. I moved in and a all of my roommates had been playing for years. Started with 3 until we got 3.5 books, I had gotten to use Lightning bolt a few times and then they changed my baby...

    Examples of Power Creep?

    I think there are some examples of power creep but on the whole it's nothing that the DM can't easily control, and it's not particularly broken. To me there is some power creep in that you can do somethings sooner, just look at the Epic Level Handbook, there are some feats in there that have...

    I got Races of the Wild, you got the questions

    I have to say that my Drd3/Wiz3/Mystic Theurge1 is going staight to Hierophant for 9th level. The beautiful thing is that I won't lose out on 9th level spells, won't get them until 20th, but that's ok. Next question is if you can provide any details on the Stormtalon?

    PrC's and Multiclassing penalties

    So I'm not blind I just didn't read an oddly named PDF file that I downloaded but never got around to. *goes to rename collection of Errata and FAQ PDF's* Thanks guys.

    W.w.y.d.i.y.w.a.q-d.?

    I'd think it would be much more interesting if the character didn't initially know he was a diety. First he has to figure out just what's WRONG with him, then deal with the fact he's got a divine rank. Find a portfolio, get followers, deal with rival churches, and try to get enough HP that...

    [Vacation] Trip to Toronto, good gaming stores?

    I think the main stores in Toronto have been described perfectly here, although I have to add that Red Nails didn't impress me when I went there. The Silver Snail is usually worth going to if for no other reason than Queen St West is usually an entertaining walk. More so if Much Music has...
