Moved on Our group closed this out quite a while ago and we're now on to Pathfinder, but I wouldnt rule out coming back someday. Possible Campaign Names? Return to the WLD Bride of the WLD WLD: the prequil How about this? You come upon what appears to be stairs going down. "How can...

I guess I dont see what the huge deal is with Sunder. The problem as I remember it can be that there are two different explanations of Hardness and Item Hitpoints (one in the PHB and one in the DMG) between them we wound up where items had pretty good hardness / hitpoints. The +2 sword you...

Thanks for the correction RV. Back to the top its grapple the casters and sunder the fighters. ;) Good luck!

I was just going from memory on their attack line, Slam it is then rather than Crush. Start your grapple from 10 feet (assuming that is out of reach of the PC) to prevent an AoO. Back off with a 5' step to do so if you have to. If you havent already, check also the conditions for the...

Every monster that does lethal damage with HTH threatens with it, they dont need Imp Unarmed Strike when using Crush. Oh and also its fairly easy (comparatively speaking) to grapple an invisible target and crush it than to hit it repeatedly. Have you tried having the giants "wade" out into the...

First the easy one: Giants throwing boulders *do* threaten for AoOs and here's why. Two relevent facts: Giants' hand to hand damage does threaten. Drawing a thrown weapon is a (a boulder) is part of a move action. So on the giant's turn they arm themselves with a boulder (move) and throw it...

I found early on that playing the WLD completely vanilla led to my players being able to predict the dungeon too much and take advantage of weaknesses that shouldnt be there (metagame), and also on the other hand for those that refuse to metagame led to inappropriate challenges and/or lack of...

Just wrapped up the World Eater Battle and thus the WLd is done here. Of course it wasnt exactly as written for our group, as the whole dungeon has had a bit of extra flavor added, so it might be a little bit harder for people to relate to a summary if I were to write it. Basically all the...

My WLD should be done well before 4e. I think they have 3-4 weekly sessions left.

Hi guys! After a lengthy move to a new house we have resumed the WLD in Lansing, MI. The campaign is almost over though, the characters are all 18th-20th level, and the World Eater is in the process of escaping its wards. The World Eater battle will be the final one of the campaign. I have...

I like the way you have modified the dungeon Ogg. Very Nice!

I call mine: Imprisonment Abjuration Level: Sor/Wiz 9 Components: V, S Casting Time: 1 standard action Range: Touch Target: Creature touched Duration: Instantaneous Saving Throw: Will negates; see text Spell Resistance: Yes When you cast imprisonment and touch a creature, it is entombed in a...

The troll/efreet battle in J was pretty epic in my campaign. I remember the efreet thinking he had everything pretty much under control with a wall of fire and a very deep pit, until the Mystic Theurge came flying over the chasm protected from Fire. The panic effort from the Efreet was to grab...

RE: Levers What gets my players are fake doors. They will spend hours pounding at a fake door. I think they are obsessed with completeness.

This might be a silly question: Who besides Invistis, Kasteofiscis and Vinarra has the 4th key to the World Eater? My group stopped right after encountering Invistis Saturday night and they already have the keys from the Mummy and the Ghost. They are now all 18th level. Invistis is getting a...

I have allowed normal Experience since the beginnning, and now my players are 17th and 18th levels in region N. In the beginning I used the "Add 2" method to boost monsters which just pretty much meant +2 to everything. Then I began modifying the creatures using the back of the monster manual...

Max - Unfortuntely according to the story they are stuck in N for all eternity. That is a terrible place to die. However, if you really want to bring them back there are a few ways to do so with a bit of creativity. For example, you can say that since they arent on the "list" (see the...

Re: Incorporeal Undead vs Corporeal It might be a stretch but I allow the Wraiths to do their 2d6 slam damage with a 50% miss chance. At least they can be annoying then with Fly-by-attack and all that. I dont let Incorporeal undead move through the walls though, so it balances out a bit.

Boyikt is no human's familiar! Boyikt is him own person! Fireballs and Curses on you!! Just kidding. Sorry to see that the Kobold Sorcerer, his bodyguards and the Krenshars got beat so bad. That was a favorite encounter of mine. I hope you used cover and poor footing. That's what turned...

My guys finally gained their first key! Vinarra had her Dread Wraiths meet the party at the entrance to N and invited them to talk. The discussion didnt last long however, because the party isnt looking to escape, they are looking to renew the wards on the World Eater. So, the battle began...
