    New Druid in town, needs some assistance

    I find the following feats of fairly good use for Druids - especially those focusing on Summon Nature's Ally. Augment Summoning, (and Spell Focus: Conjuration because you have to) Metamagic School Focus: Summoning (CM 45) Extend Spell Ashbound (EbCS p.50) - but you're not using Eberron, so...

    Eldritch Blast and SLA Meta Feats

    “An eldritch blast is the equivalent of a 1st-level spell. If you apply a blast shape or eldritch essence invocation to your eldritch blast (see page 130), your eldritch blast uses the level equivalent of the shape or essence.” The errata changed the EB from being the equivalent of a spell 1/2...

    Tumble from Prone...and old question, yet rarely discussed?

    Skill tricks from Complete Scoundrel may help: Nimble Stand [Movement] p. 88 You can rely on your acrobatic talent to stand up from prone safely. Prerequisite: Tumble 8 ranks. Benefit: You can stand up from prone without provoking attacks of opportunity. Tumbling Crawl [Movement] p.90 You can...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Classes with mounts

    Be a druid. Nothing beats a bear riding a bear into combat.

    I'm building an army to take over the Empire!

    Air support? Try a squadron of Manticore... or some good old fashioned breath-weapon strafing runs. Also use air for recon since cavalry scouts in a land of flying creatures and magic is a bit too restrictive. That and maybe a sapper squad that comes up from underground: umber hulk/earth...

    Prestige classes

    If there was a feat that actually increased your ranks in a given skill, then yes it would help you qualify. However, all the skill boosting feats that I know of add a bonus to your skill check rather than adding actual ranks to your skill. Example, Skill Focus is worded like this: Benefit...

    Prestige classes

    Wizbang is spot on. PH p 58-59 lays out the progression of how to level up: Step 1 - choose class, Step 2 - BAB, Step 3 - Base Save Bonus, Step 4 - Ability Score, Step 5 - HP, Step 6 - Skill Points, Step 7 - Feats, Step 8 - Spells, Step 9- Class features. Going in this sequence, you need to...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Need help with 3.5 stealthy Sniper

    If you decide to go with a bow instead of a crossbow, take a few levels of ranger to get access to the 1st level Ranger Spell "Hunter's Mercy" (Spell Compendium pg 117) It gives an automatic critical to your first hit in the following round with a bowshot. While it's not useful in real combat...

    Need random E10 group. (Hi, Dandu)

    It's probably from his already cast "alter self" spell. Doesn't troglodyte give +6na?

    Hard time finding things wondering if you all can help?

    What you are looking for is not an ACF but rather the actual description of domain feats in Complete Champion pg 53. It explains how clerics can trade access to a domain for the associated domain devotion. See below:

    D&D 3E/3.5 New to D&D 3.5 and need help or advice for a scout build

    Greater Many shot is a good way to activate skirmish damage, but it severely limits your number of attacks, and stacks a very painful -4 on to each shot. You are going to be far behind the standard BAB when you finally get a 3rd or 4th shot per round, and the minus to hit on each and every...

    Cui Shi Class (New)

    Just out of curiosity, what were you going for with the naming convention for the class? The feedback regarding the comparative weakness of the class struck me as a little ironic since the name could mean "Brittle Excrement" in Chinese. I assume that wasn't your top choice, and since there...

    Tips on civil war appreciated

    The 4th Module for the EN War of the Burning Sky Series (The Mad Kind's Banquet) has a pretty cool civil war/battle fight scene. You might be able to get something out of that.

    He was wrong. The feat does not say that.

    Darkvision + Arcane Eye?

    Boy, I hope it does - I've used it that way numerous times. For rules purposes, if you look at the clairvoyance spell it says: "Unlike other scrying spells, this spell does not allow magically or supernaturally enhanced senses to work through it." Arcane Eye is higher level and doesn't say...

    Campaign Consultation!

    Ever see that Family Guy episode where Mayor West bankrupted the town to build a solid gold statue of the Honeysmack's Frog "Diggem" out in front of the statehouse? How about something like that. It was good enough to start a rebellion in Quahog. Honestly, the simplest "tell" is to...

    opinions of class combos, prestige & gestalt build

    Are you sure about this? I always thought that they could. Looking at the PH II write-up, the Arcane Channeling ability states "beginning at 3rd level you can use a standard action to cast any touch spell you know and deliver the spell through your weapon with a melee attack." There don't...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5: newb needs a little help with Hellfire Warlock build

    I'm not sure I completely understand your question, but let me give it a shot anyways. Hellfire Warlock advances you Eldrich Blast as if you gained a level of Warlock, so there should be no gap in level. At character level 17, you will have the EB of a 17th level Warlock (8d6), regardless if...

    Looking for help - Pale Master?

    Pale Master is in Libris Mortis, but while I've never played one, it looks like it kind of sucks. It gets a free animate dead ability at second level, but I believe that it is still limited to controlling 4HD/CL like a normal caster, so this probably isn't what you are thinking of. Dread...
