Help me break in my 3.5 books! (3.5 Q&A)

[Olgar Shiverstone]

basically if there is a clear synergy (barbarian levels added to a giant) add +1 per class level. If there ISN'T (e.g. bard levels added to a giant) add +1 per 2 class levels.

Hadn't seen that yet; neat!

What are the rules for sleeping in armor now? I know endurance allows you to sleep in light or medium armor, but if you don't have endurance are you fatigued if you sleep in any armor?

Also are there any obviously better medium armors?

Medium armor look identical.

No change that I can tell to the sleeping rules (fatigued in Med or Hvy), plus -2 Str/Dex penalty the next day, no charge or run.

Have the Craft rules changed? Specifically, the time required to complete an item -- still one week to produce (skill check x DC), in sp, worth of an item?

Same -- but you can now make progress by the day (in cp) insted of the week, if you want.

Is Divine Favor still +1/3 levels?

Thank you in advance

Is Divine Favor still +1/3 levels?

Yes.

An interesting observation: Weapons Specialization damage is no longer limited to 30 feet for ranged weapons (same with ranger FE bonuses). Watch out for the archers.

More errata:

The feat table incorrectly indicates that Weapon Finesse only applies to one weapon at a time.

The Shield Proficiency feat refers to small and large shields (they're now light and heavy, respectively).

I may have to start a "Compiled Errata" document ...

Can you post the low-down on the Red Wizard, especially the prerequisites, class skills, and the abilities? I have a player that wants to level up this thursday into the class ... (the day before I get my DMG).

Thanks!

Olgar,

I'll forgive you, but you haven't mentioned one of the excellent new key elements of determining CR when class levels are added to monsters.

basically if there is a clear synergy (barbarian levels added to a giant) add +1 per class level. If there ISN'T (e.g. bard levels added to a giant) add +1 per 2 class levels.

This answers a long standing problem.

Cool! So ... what are the levels and CRs of the mind flayer sorcerer, aboleth mage and elder stone giant? Thanks
