3.0 classics

[yojimbouk]

Scanning eBay I see a lot of 3.0 D&D and d20 products going cheap.

So I'm asking what products are worth picking up? What are the "classiccs" of 3.0?

Cheers,
Jim.

Get the Freeport stuff from Green Ronin and any adventures from Necromancer Games that you can find. Scarred Lands stuff is also a must have. (At least for me)

Of D&D 3.0 itself?

Manual of the Planes.
Oriental Adventures.
MMII (I actually prefer in to III, IV, or FF)

I second Necromancer games and Scarred Lands. Green Ronin are good, but Wizards have covered their strong points (fiends and base classes) very thoroughly in 3.5, so they're less vital now.

I also recommend Fiend Folio.

I second Necromancer games and Scarred Lands.

I can get on board with that. Relics & Rituals and Creature Collection II are still 2 of my most used third party books. And I beleive the great Tomb of Abysthor and Vault of Larin Karr by Necro are 3.0 IIRC.

What? Things need to be at leat ten years old to be classic. 3.0 ain't!

Maybe:
Monster Manual II (there are some broken critters in it, but the rest are okay and some are pretty neat; includes stuff like gem dragons, elemental wierds, jermlaines, grells, brass golems, fihyrs, clockwork horrors, ankylosaurs, hook horrors, linnorms, myconids, neogi, nimblewrights, phoenixes, lawful/chaotic planetouched, spirits of the land, wystes, and the warbeast template)

Also, possibly:
Psionics Handbook (mainly just if you think 3.5 XPH is broken, then 3.0 PsiHB may be more your cup of tea; hardly anything in the way of broken powers, so hardly anything to just houserule away; no augmentations; no psionic focus, just more ways to spend power points and thereby not overshadow spellcasters; no wierd races; no overchanneling or wilders or crazy extra-actions madness; just make a houseruled limit on Psychofeedback and Fission, and remove Schism if you don't use 3.0 Haste)
