[QUOTE="Gwarok, post: 7204642, member: 12249"] It is borked, and Captain does have a point, but as the DM you can do anything you want. So my unasked for free advice is to do that. The players have a pretty well defined set of rules and limitations their characters are built around to interact with the world, and they will push those mechanics as far as they can. It's actually one of the more fun aspects of the game if you ask me, within reason. They are like small children or prisoners in jail, they have nothing but time to figure out how to work the system to get what they want, to work around the rules that confine them, so they will do so. The DM doesn't have these limitations, and so it should be upon the DM to make things interesting and challenging in ways that don't ruin anyone's good time. My left eye always goes into a spasm when I read some DM's suggestion to a problem is to take something a character has built their character around and nerf it to make their job easier. [/QUOTE]
