Message: <blockquote data-quote="(un)reason" data-source="post: 5417356" data-attributes="member: 27780">Dragon Magazine Issue 217: May 1995part 4/8Sage advice has finally wormed out of spellfire duty. Skip is most pleased. That'll teach em for leaving skip off last month's contents.  How does an amulet of life protection keep your psyche for 7 days (By trapping your Soooooouuuuuuullllll! )How much does bariaur armor cost (same as for horses. How humiliating.)How do bariaurs ride a bonded mount (Er, um. Ick. It'll just have to be a loyal companion, rather than an actual mount. )Can psionicists improve already existing defense modes (sure. The choice between power and versatility is a hard one. ) What monsters can I summon with various levels (use their XP rating to see what can be considered fair. )Can you clarify some specialty priest powers (is this still causing people problems. If you're gonna make skip explain every one, you'd better pay skip pretty damn well. )How much can you fit in a backpack (Don't worry about it. Encumbrance is already inconvenient enough. If you enforce realistic storage space as well, you'll never get anything done) Can you remove a creatures spellcasting power with dispel magic (no, only the spells they currently have active.) Warhamer + Gauntlets + Girdle is totally broken. How could you allow that! (Skip only examines the rules. Skip doesn't make them (unless it's unclear and skip feels like it at the time) And there are plenty of ways to make a character even more broken. Skip will even show you some if you pay.) What gets multiplied by buffs (usually, only the dice. The adding comes afterwards.)What special powers do you gain with shapechange ( Some, but certainly not all. )Isn't it easier for priests to make magical items (no, because they have to get their god on side. You know how busy gods are. )How do you make magic items if you're a specialist without access to the enchantment school (you can't. You'll have to find a scroll or persuade someone who can to help. Oh wait, you can't use opposition scrolls, so I guess you'll need a friend. Solitary wizards in towers are screwed. )Does a wall of force protect you from reading symbols (no)When are you gonna do tome of magic spheres for monster mythology. (they're already in the book, dumbass. Have you even read it, or are you just kneejerking for the hell of it. Skip doesn't like kneejerkers. They're prime targets for bein' capped. Then their knees'll never jerk again. )</blockquote>
