    8th Level Druid

    Make yourself a small (gnome or halfling) cleric of WeeJa. Create an undead minion (maybe a troll skeleton), armor it up and then ride around in it's rib cage. Take Magic and Death as your two domains and then load up with wands and scrolls from the wizard spell list. You could even be true...

    Should we stay or should we go now, la la la.

    The cleric does have obscuring mist memorized and I am thinking we will save it for a true getaway if things go bad.

    Should we stay or should we go now, la la la.

    I talked we our DM last night about it. I had a couple of questions that I wasn't able to ask when we were playing last week. First off I have determined that these are not regular full HD Hill Giants, they are a group called the young bloods and we have killed one of them already but didn't...

    Should we stay or should we go now, la la la.

    Yes, I know, he also had a 6th level wand of fireballs that none of the rest of us can use. The wizard made it one round and got hit with three rocks. The cleric had nothing left to work with. The only up side o all this is that they can't get surround us, we have them pigonholed into the...

    Should we stay or should we go now, la la la.

    I am looking for some advice about a current game situation I am in. We play again on thursday so I have a couple of days to ponder my next moves. Here is the setup: We are playing through a portion of Against the Giants, retooled for 3.5. Our party is made up of: Ranger -7th(asimar) Monk...

    Help me optimize my level 8 Vow of Poverty/ PEace Sorcerer

    VoPov also gives you an exalted feat at every even level, so you are really short on feats. You should be having tons of battle field control, protection, buff, and illusion spells. cheers

    I will ask my DM, thanks for the quote from FAQ that will help a lot, I believe. cheers, j

    Can a monk flurry in a grapple?

    That makes no sense. You could flurry with kama but not open handed? So what if the unarmed strike is a weapon, the kama is a weapon. It is an attack with an with an unarmed strike, just because you need to only hit their touch ac and not their full ac shouldn't mater. From Wizards Website...

    Can a monk flurry in a grapple?

    I think I see the point you are trying to make; that Imp. Unarmed strike is a specific kind of weapon that is not mentioned as being able to be used as part of a trip attemp. I am of the opinion that Imp. unarmed strike is just a feat that lets you be "threatning" 5'. It would think that it...

    Can a monk flurry in a grapple?

    You don't need a weapon to trip an opponent. You also don't need improved unarmed strike. Grapple (and trip) are attack opptions that don't require any special equipment or feats to use. Any creature can make a trip attack or grapple attack. I read through the flurry description and...

    Can a monk flurry in a grapple?

    Can a monk use his flurry of blows ability as an action in a grapple? Either as an attack your opponent action in a grapple suffering the -4 to hit or as a damage your opponent action in a grapple doing unarmed strike damage. If I was 8th level, would I be able to make an unarmed touch...

    Need help with Expedition to Castle Ravenloft character

    Just a little more advice. EtCR is tough, and I ended up dominating or killing the whole party. Strahd is a genius and if played as such by your DM he will strike when you are on your heels realling from some other nasty encounter. have plenty of healing power and ability drain/level drain...

    Need help with Expedition to Castle Ravenloft character

    I DM'ed EtCR, and you should get some ability to shrug off negatie levels and other nasty undead effects. What level are you able to play? There are a couple of feats in EtCR that let you avoid neg. levels. There is also a pretty cool cleric/thief prestige class in the minitures hand book, I...

    As a DM would you allow it?

    Monk taking Stunning Fist ?

    I have a monk that took Improved Grapple at first level. Can I take Stunning fist at a later time, 3rd level or 6th level, as a regular feat? Or am I pigeon holed into one track? cheers, justin

    When do you get a feat if you have a level ajustment

    I have a Goiath Monk at first level. The Goliath race gives a level ajustment of +1. When I gain enough xp to get to second level monk (3000 = 1000 for first + 2000 for second level ajustment), I will be a third level character. Do I get a feat then or do I get a feat when I get to thrid...

    Ghosts in armour

    Is there a rule that says that using a magic weapon on the Ethereal plane lets you affect things on the material plane with a 50% miss chance? I have never seen this in print, but I may have over looked it. cheers, justin

    Meld into Stone Question

    I remember reading some place that Incorporeal creatures can not affect material objects unless they have some special ability to do so, like a spell like ability. So, physical attacks on objects don't work. i.e. A specter couldn't do damage to a chair with an attack an object action. I was...

    Meld into Stone Question

    Hey All, I am in the process of picking some third level spells fro my favored soul character. I know that we are going to be going against some undead in our upcoming adventures, most likely incorporeal. I am wondering how some of you DM's would rule attacks made by incorporeal creatures...
