I know, I keep having "what if's"

I'm getting jitters, keep contemplating totally changing my concept to something I'm more familiar with.

i guess it wasn't an unnamed bonus, huh?

It was only unnamed until Seasong named it.

By the way, since you somewhat nerfed Stoneskin, if I recall, setting it from 10/+5 to 5/—, would you mind nixing the expensive spell component cost?

 

[cool hand luke]

which reminds me, the last time I played on of these, it was never CLEARLY stated that spell components had to be purchased, and one player spent to much on other things to be able to purchase them, but this wasn't discovered until afterwards. So can we get a concrete ruling right now?

of course, if you people woudn't create pansy spellcasters, this wouldn't be a problem.

Stoneskin: At 15th level, you are unlikely to be facing less than +5 weapons and magical attacks for the most part. That means that the change from /+5 to /- is directly advantageous to you versus melee types - the equivalent of about 25-50 extra hit points over the course of a mere 5-10 hits.

And 250 GP is not that expensive for a man of your wealth and taste. Why, tis a mere pittance, less than a hundredth of your worth!

Spell Components: If it lists a cost, you have to buy it to cast it. I do not require anyone to purchase bat guano or similar cheap and costless components, however.

Note: the deadline is midnight on FRIDAY night. Tonight is not the deadline. Tomorrow night is.

I'm not sure how clear I was, so I just thought I'd make it clear.

Yes, midnight. I plan on awaking early Saturday morning, deleting all OGL requests that arrived even a minute after midnight, and then slowly working through everything else. I shall derive a great deal of personal pleasure from the deleting part - that shall keep me going for the rest of it .

Clarification on Lion's Charge

Lion's Charge allows a full attack at the end of a charge. Only the FIRST attack gets the Charge bonus, or is considered a Charge attack for purposes of rhino's hide, etc.

If you have two-weapon fighting, one attack from each hand is considered a charge. A dual weapon does not gain this benefit.

If you have multiple limbs and get an extra attack with each of them (such as a lion), the extra attacks are counted as part of the charge.

A monk with flurry of blows counts the first bonus attack as part of the charge.

Similar logic can be applied to other situations - send me an e-mail if you need something specific answered.

It is in the book I read it in *nerf boff* I mean, it's an enhancement bonus.



I hope you all are feeling my pain, cause I'm so nerfed I'm fuzzy. But I still got ideas. And I got more books to plunder.

 

[Number47]

Cheap components are supposed to be covered under the 5gp item Spell Component Pouch.

By the way, my character has more than enough money to afford Stoneskin costs. My secondary cohort, however, is a poor little bastard. I suppose my primary character could just give him some money or spell components, but what lessen would that teach. No, you have to get by on your own. You can't always just ask your old man for spell components because you were too lazy to get them yourself.

 

[seasong]

Yeah, Jeremy's going to have a long list of "thank yous" from me when this is done .

Number47: Well, the DM's not going to pay for it, either .
