    Tiny armor

    According to the chart in the SRD, armor for tiny or smaller creatures only offers half the AC of the same armor in larger sizes. Is this true for shields, as well? What AC bonus would Padded armor confer to a Tiny creature? Would it be +0? What about a Tiny Light Shield? Edit: Said chart is...

    Non-humanoids with < 1 Racial HD

    I, personally, agree with your sentiment. The SRD entry that you are referring to may not be errata, however, as it is nearly a direct quote from the Player's Handbook. The Monster Manual, however, had the specific heading that Skip Williams was referring to, and as such, his ruling is...

    Non-humanoids with < 1 Racial HD

    According to the 3.0 ruling, any creature with 1 racial HD drops that HD when gaining class levels. 3.5, though, has a new ruling: So, with the 3.5 ruling, a Pixie Sorcerer 1 would be a minimum 6th level character (1 HD Pixie, 1 HD Sorcerer, +4 level adjustment). But what about a Jermlaine...

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    The response from WotC was actually fairly useful. The epic rules are 3.0, so integrating them into 3.5 is rather tricky. While they did not come right out and say it, they insinuated that the best thing to do would be to house rule them to follow the pattern of the other two-weapon fighting and...

    Cohort Crafters

    I was thinking about something similar to this. How much would a forge weigh? The reason I ask is because a Bag of Holding Type IV can carry up to 1,500 lbs and 250 cu. ft. If you placed several Type IV bags of Holding inside each other, you could create quite a large space. In each of the bags...

    Baleful Polymorph into a Monkey - Verbal Spells?

    Well, to answer your question, I refer you to the Natural Spell feat. A druid usually cannot perform the verbal or somatic components of a spell in their wildshaped form. But with the feat, they can. From purely a rules point of view, I would think it would be impossible for the monkey to...

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    I am not sure what to make of this response from WotC. Are they answering the question at all? Answer from WotC: You get your flurry of blows (5 attacks) plus your off hand attacks See page 13 of the D&D v.3.5 FAQ for a description on what is possible with a flurry of blows and two-weapon...

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    Lol, who knows. He has been spending all of his feats on multiweapon fighting, he might not have a single effective attack in the entire mix :-P.

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    Yes, WotC finally responded with the same thing. On a similar note, I found this in the SRD: This line shows all the physical attacks the creature makes when it uses a full-round action to make a full attack. It gives the number of attacks along with the weapon, attack bonus, and form of...

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    While I understand your interpretation, the question seems to pop up on different forums about whether Monks can use Two-Weapon Fighting when making a flurry of blows. Wizards of the Coast added an entry to their FAQ covering this, although I understand that someone else who posted does not like...

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    Lol, you answered right as I was posting :-P. I understand what you wrote for only quarterstaff attacks, but what happens if the monk makes a flurry of headbutts and kicks, then decides that his off-hand attacks would be quarterstaff attacks? Would it be: Unarmed Strike (flurry of blows) -...

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    While I understand your point, I don't read it that way. Perfect Two-Weapon Fighting and Perfect Multiweapon Fighting could have been worded that they only grant attacks based on the number of attacks granted by the base attack bonus, but it is not. It is worded that it grants the same number of...

    I do not mean to offend anyone. If any of my posts are seemingly offensive, please let me know and I will modify them accordingly. I tend to think faster than I type, so what I type is not always what I mean exactly.

    Awesome :). I am thinking of asking Monte Cook himself, though :-P.

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    I agree that he would not gain the additional attack from the short sword of speed, but not because it does not fit into the base attack bonus progression. I agree with you there because the haste effect specifically says that it does not stack with any other effect. Therefore two-weapon...

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    You are correct, but the FAQ explained that this was not meant as a game mechanic, but more as a description that regardless of which fist they strike with (left or right), they are not striking with an "off-hand". Here is the excerpt: Excerpt

    It was not meant to be impolite. I have edited the post removing the offensive piece of my argument.

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    I have to disagree with your assessment. How many attacks is he making with his primary weapon? He is making 5 attacks with his primary weapon. How many attacks can he make with his off-hand weapon? It should be 5. What Base Attack Bonus should he use for those five off-hand attacks? It should...

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    That is rather regardless. The wording of Perfect Two-Weapon Fighting does not indicate which hand is making the attacks. To quote the SRD, "You can make as many attacks with your off-hand weapon as with your primary weapon, using the same base attack bonus. You still take the normal penalties...

    Monk Musings... (not a good reply from WotC)

    I am going to say that four attacks are fine, but I am concerned with the wording of Perfect Multi-Weapon Fighting. A character can make as many off-hand attacks with each limb as he can regular attacks. This seems like it might pose a problem. A Thri-Kreen Ranger 8/monk 11 has a BAB of +16...
