    Advanced Players Guide

    I'm very interested in this product but I haven't read a full review up to date. It could be nice if you could do one. BTW, how does the new Epic system handle the problem with excessive difference between good and bad saves? And is there a mention on having more than four iterative attacks? New...

    grappling an air elemental

    The rules for whirlwinds are unclear. I would say that a whirlwind can't be grappled, though nothing in the rules state that. We can rely on common sense and the sentence "To start a grapple, you need to grab and hold your target" from the SRD. It's quite clear that, in whirlwind form, an air...

    Enchantments

    Is a creature aware of having being affeceted by an enchantment? Suppose a creature which has been affected by Charm Monster. When the duration expires, does it automatically know that it has been targeted by an enchantment or it just thinks that he has behaved oddly? Should it make a Spellcraft...

    Craft (alchemy) now useless for identifying potions?

    It's expensive and in addition it takes too long to produce something, but what I 'd have really liked is a way to implement higher DCs in the items effects by rolling against higher Craft difficulties. What about Alchemist's Fire having +1 Reflex DC for every additional +2 on the Craft check...

    Craft (alchemy) now useless for identifying potions?

    That would work fine, Will. "Me much happier!"

    Craft (alchemy) now useless for identifying potions?

    The thing that really kills me about Craft(alchemy) is that it becomes a mostly useless skill once you reach a moderate level. The items crafted are useful for a low level character, but once a party has a sufficient repertoire of spells and magic items, the alchemical items become nearly...

    [XPH] Psion versus Wizard/Sorcerer

    Do psions still have 4+Int skill ranks per level? This should have been nerfed, given the shift to Int as primary ability.

    [XPH] Psion versus Wizard/Sorcerer

    Hmm... I think the whole unbalancing comes from the fact that sorcerers are (IMO) underpowered when compared to wizards, so if psions are now similar in power to wizards, the sorcerers remain in the bottom of the power pyramid. I have thought on giving sorcs 4+Int skill ranks per level and...

    (Way OT) How bad is the heat wave in Europe?

    Here in Barcelona we are having 37ºC (reaching even 39) for the last two weeks and what's worth, minimums of 27ºC. It's usual to have 30 degrees at midnight due to high humidity (50% on average) added to lack of strong winds. The sea is at 25 degrees at one mile from the shore. However we're...

    Fun stuff to do with illusions

    Does a successful disbelief allow you to see through the illusion? I thought the illusion remained visible so it blocked the line of sight, though you knew you could go through it without problem because you realized it wasn't real.

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Min/Maxed Two-Handed Weapon Damage Machine with the flavor of a Samurai

    I don't understand the Headband of Intellect thing. To qualify for Expertise you must have Int 13+, but it has to be your actual stat, not buffed by any means. AFAIK you can't use buffs to reach stat values that enable the acquisition of feats, or to get more skill points when a level is gained.

    RttToEE Cleric Spell Selection

    I've just began playing RtToEE with an Earth Genasi Cleric of Grumbar (Metal, Earth), having in mind to progress into Divine Disciple (a pair of levels, seeking for that nasty Time Domain) and then Runecaster (absolutely fearsome PrC, just 10 minutes creating a Trigger activated agic Item!)...

    The Anti-d20 game?

    I've heard they've devoloped the definitive system: The d10+d12-2 system With a natural 0 your character realizes he's just an imaginary being in the players' mind and ceases to work until his situation is somehow legalized. It's a true revoulution in the RPG world;)

    Is the Wizard the most powerful class?

    IMO, any spellcasting class with access to 9th level spells before 20th level (mainly wizard and cleric) is far more powerful than any other. Careful preparation of spell list makes them no match for other characters of the same level.

    [Ghelspad] nation population, low or high?

    The hazards of wild areas during the War and afterwards were high enough for people to seek shelter in city-states or large capitols (see the origins of Hollowfaust or Mithril). As a result, city states seem to be surronded by a mostly unpopulated area. So Ghelspad is perhaps...
