I Have A Copy of Monster Manual 5.

[Razz]

Luis really does have that problem.

I've noticed you've been using my actual name as if you personally know me or something? Many times you've stalked my posts only to further harass me on my opinions everywhere I go (I have yet to see you attack me on the Paizo boards) and now you're calling me by my name?

Now it's just getting creepy. A bit infatuated with me there?

Please, for both our sake, just put me on ignore if you can't handle what I believe in when it comes to the way I think D&D material should be handled. There are much more opinionated and worse folk here on the boards to slam than myself. :\

A little late on replying to that one, which was already corrected by Helium3 a long while back? It's almost as if...hmm...you just felt like picking on opinionated me? So typical of some of the posters here when they cross my posts here. Sad...

Don't feel singled out. Anybody can get that kind of attention. They just have to go around stating opinions in a factual manner, and they'll wind up being challenged. And if that doesn't do the trick, they can always tut-tut the WotC design staff as if they were an unquestionable authority on the topics of sourcebook design and fanbase appeal.

Hey, everyone's opiniated. That's not what draws people to constantly correct the various inaccuracies and logical falacies that seem inherent to your criticisms. I suspect we'll see more threads from you about MMV, just like we did with MMIV. If past experience is any indicator, you'll say outlandish stuff like accuse DM's of being lazy for wanting statted-out monsters and suggest that if they don't have time to do it themselves they should just quit the hobby. You probably know better, but seem to crave the attention, and the fact that it's not the good kind of attention isn't important. And that is sad as well.

But having said all that....

Now it's just getting creepy. A bit infatuated with me there?

It is creepy and inappropriate to use someone's real name on a baord where they're employing an alias. On the other hand, putting a narcissistically erotic spin on that is probably not the way to go with a stalker.

The new spell is called Earthbind, and it's a spell like ability cast by the Gadacro, one of the new demons. Now that I looked at it more closely, I think it may be in the Spell Compendium.

True that.

The new feats are Battle Magic Tactics, Brutal Throw, Daunting Presence, Kuo-toan Monasticism, Mage Slayer, Mind-Shattering Strike and Sense Quintessence.

Would love to here more about the feats (I'm already familiar with Brutal Throw and Mage-Slayer).

 

[Felon]

I don't think it's against the RAW, but it doesn't make a lot of sense. Humanoid hit dice aren't nearly as good as class levels. Outsider and dragon hit dice are okay, but humanoid hit dice leave much to be desired.

Indeed, I'd say the same goes for advancing a troll into a "war troll" and advancing an ogre into a "skullcrusher ogre", but it does let them advance a creature in a minimalist sort of way, without resorting to class levels that some people find objectionable.

I'm curious to see if Mage-Slayer changed any.

Battle Magic Tactics - This one is tough to describe without getting into the nuts and bolts and I don't want to do that. Basically, if you hit a creature with a spell requiring a save at the beginning of a round, saves that it makes later in the same round are more likely to fail.

Mage Slayer - Negates the ability to cast defensively.

Kuo-toan Monasticism - Kuo-toa monks can use their adhesive to improve their flurry of blows.

Mind-Shattering Strike - Kuo-toan stunning fist attacks can also make opponents attack their allies to a limited degree.

Daunting Presence - Your very presence can make opponents shaken.

Sense Quintessence - Detect magic also allows you to detect quintessence.

I don't see what's so inappropriate about it. You hastened to point out whenever you had a letter demanding that Paizo publish statistics for more modrons published in Dungeon's Prison Mail - yet another place where you've been acting like your personal preferences should determine the way a gaming company conducts its business - so I can only assume that you were trying to draw attention to yourself.

But then, I think that's the reason you express your opinions so arrogantly in the first place, so . . .

Guys, I really don't want to get into the middle of this, but could we all just calm down? Helium is doing someting very nice, and I don't want this thread locked.

Could we all just back off and take a deep breath? Please?


Also, Helium, Could you elaborate on "vapires (all)", the Deadborn vulture and the zombie form, and the Greenspwan zealot?

Good point. Let's move on.

Thanks for the feats, Helium.

Greetings Helium3,

I would like to know more about the other contructs. Can you please give a short description for each of them, excluding the ones for Thoon, of course ?

Thanks in advance
