    Cleaving: Are a horse and rider "adjacent"?

    Hokay. So this situation came up in our game (right at the end of a session, fortuitously) just today and we were wondering whether a horse and rider (or, in our case, a goblin dog and goblin rider) count as "adjacent" for the purposes of using the Cleave feat? Additionally, what would happen...

    Template, Class and Build ideas for this character concept?

    Point taken... My current PC is a crossbow-skirmisher Scout. The other five PCs are the Paladin-going-into-Crusader (sword-and-board and face), a greataxe Fighter (purely damaged focused... he's a secondary character being played by the same player playing the Paladin), an Evoker Wizard (who...

    Template, Class and Build ideas for this character concept?

    Hiya Now, this is going to sound incredibly bizzare, but here we go... Basically, in my current D&D 3.5 group, we have a Paladin (soon to multiclass into Crusader) who grew up on a farm, and still pays her old home frequent visits. Quite some time before the beginning of the in-game story...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Interactions Between Intimidation-related Feats (3.5)

    But would this cause them to be cowering for one round, frightened for one round and then shaken for however many rounds Dreadful Wrath's effect had left at that point, or would it boost the level of fear on them to frightened for the entireity of Dreadful Wrath's effect?

    Anything Denser than Neutronium?

    Perhaps it would be better to do what Total Annhilation did and say that something (you can use magic, in the case of a construct, whereas TA used technobable) has altered the properties of a comparatively normal material so that it behaves like one giant molecule.

    D&D 3E/3.5 Interactions Between Intimidation-related Feats (3.5)

    Oh and while I'm at it; given that Dread Pirate, Scarlet Corsair, Barbarian with Intimidating Rage, Zhentarim Fighter and Avenging Executioner are all inappropriate given this character's fluff and backstory, is there anything else I could mutliclass into to improve either the character's...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Interactions Between Intimidation-related Feats (3.5)

    Hello everyone... Hokay; right now I'm building myself an Intimidation-focused Marshal (my DM has even allowed me to replace the Skill Focus (Diplomacy) 1st level bonus feat with Skill Focus (Intimidate)) and whilst I'm going to have no trouble boosting this character's Intimidation checks to...

    How much should this item cost?

    Hokay. Basically, I have a scout in a 3.5 game that's taking place in a setting that combines elements of magi-tech and steampunk in a somewhat similar manner to Arcanum, and my DM has decided to invent a special magi-tech spyglass that I will be able to purchase. We were, however, wondering how...

    Pathfinder 1E What would be a good "Pathfinder Bonus" for a Swordsage?

    Especially as we've decided that the Swordsage's final "Pathfinder bonus" (note that fixing tumbling has officially become a seperate issue to that for us now) consists of removing the 3/day limit on its capstone ability and granting it Bonus Feats at 6th level and every 5 levels thereafter...

    Pathfinder 1E What would be a good "Pathfinder Bonus" for a Swordsage?

    It's worth noting that we're all playing homebrew races that have base land speed 40 feet, so the effect of the half-speed thing is somewhat mitigated for me, as me tumbling at half-speed is the equivalent of a halfling or gnome tumbling at full speed... As for the results of those changes...

    Pathfinder 1E What would be a good "Pathfinder Bonus" for a Swordsage?

    Hey Stream, my DM for the Pathfinder game still wants Tumble to run against the monster's CMD so that my character doesn't hit a point where she can dust her hands and go, "Right... Well, I don't need to put any more ranks into THAT skill...", so do you think the tumbling thing would be alright...

    Pathfinder 1E What would be a good "Pathfinder Bonus" for a Swordsage?

    I thought I already made it clear in the OP that I know I don't need it. As I said, we just thought it would be nice (as in, not necessary, but nice) to give the Swordsage a little something extra, which was exactly why I'm looking for something that would give a nice litte on-the-side boost...

    Pathfinder 1E What would be a good "Pathfinder Bonus" for a Swordsage?

    Hello everyone. Well, as the title of the thread implies, I've been allowed to port the Swordsage class into Pathfinder for a brand-spanking new from-1st-level game. We were wondeirng what would make for a good small and relatively insignificant but still useful ability to give the class as a...

    Reach Weapons, Readying and Attacks of Opportunity

    Thankyou very much, Storm. And yes, we already figured that one would only get the Brace bonus on the readied attack and not on the subsequent AOO. Our reasoning was indeed that the "Brace" quality only ever applies to an attack made using Readied action, and not to any other attacks the weapon...

    Reach Weapons, Readying and Attacks of Opportunity

    Could you elaborate on what you mean by that?

    Reach Weapons, Readying and Attacks of Opportunity

    In the most succinct possible terms: If I set a reach weapon against a charge, I spend my readied action to attack an opponent (who we'll assume is not carrying a reach weapon) as he approaches me, right? Well my question is: Do I, after making the readied attack, also get to make an attack of...

    Can Delay slot you in between two characters acting on the same initiative count?

    As the title of the thread says, I'd like to know whether a character with a given initiative can use Delay to act in-between two characters who have the same initiative count as each other (and a lower initiative than the character who is Delaying, obviously). You see, our group found itself...

    How best to improve this paladin?

    Hey there. As the title of the thread suggests, a friend of mine is currently playing a 3rd level paladin in an online 3.5 game (we're using Skype), and he's thinking about multi-classing after 5th level (when he gets his mount). Because as we all know, paladins are a little on the underpowered...

    Homebrew: Are these races balanced?

    Yeah, I was going to give all three races the same hoof attacks that the regular, real-world style ponies you can find in the Bestiary get (that is, 2 hooves at 1d3 leathal), though I figured that isn't really part of the balance issue because it's something all three races would get. Anyway...
