Message: <blockquote data-quote="(un)reason" data-source="post: 6226933" data-attributes="member: 27780">Dragon Issue 346: August 2006part 6/6Sage advice: When an artificer scribes a scroll, is it arcane or divine (they can choose. They're good ssneaky imitatiorss. ) Do artificers have to use arcane material components or divine foci (No. They can use the besst of both options.)Does making an item class specific and extraordinary artisan stack (Yes. Big bargainss allow you to undercut your competitorssss, collins collins.)Can a half-dragon elf or elf lich gain a mark of shadows (no)Is a warforged juggernaut affected by Quori nightmares (yess. They laugh at your puny attempts to be sscary.)Can a warforged juggernaut become reforged or vice versa (Yess, but it would be a ssuboptimal combination. ssorry.)Does a shifter druids beast spirit power stack with the 9th level moonspeaker power (Oh yess. Thatss very twinky.)Can a spirit shaman chastise a quori (Yess. Naughty quori, needss a good sspanking.)What's the difference between the polymorph spell, and the polymorph subschool (ones a spell, the other's a trick to nerf a whole bunch of existing spells retroactively. :spits: )YOU HAVE ERRED AGAIN TWICE!!! WE ARE VERY DISPLEASED. IF YOU CONTINUE LIKE THIS WE WILL TAKE YOUR JOB AWAY FROM YOU!! No. Pleasse, collins collins. Don't take my preciouss away from me. Andy is a good sage, collins collins. Andy will never insult you like Sskip. Andy promissesss!!! Class acts: Adventurers get Scout feats and options. Pretty self explanatory. 6 new feats, and 2 new class variants for another mostly ignored non core class. Just the thing the magazine should be doing, and some of the feats are useful to rangers, rogues, and other wilderness and stealthy types as well. Never underestimate the value of a good reconnoiter before a fight. Arcane gives truenamers from the tome of magic some love this month. 6 new debuffs based upon turning the truename of a creature against it, plus three new feats that give you even more uses for truenames. Once again, this is primarily aimed at a single class, but can have limited use for other ones dabbling in the art. Clerics get Sacred Enforcers. Monks devoted to a particular Lawful deity, and with various alternate sets of fighting styles and class features, these are good incentive to make monks actually religious, rather than just generalised zen badasses. Let the fluff and crunch unite, to form the ultimate food of entertainment!Warriors get Eastern Cataphracts. Another real world variety of warrior gets it's equipment detailed for if you should choose to imitate it. Yawn. Nodwick solves the problems, but not to the satisfaction of his employers. Dork tower once again show how utterly stuck in a rut they are, unable to even see outside the box, let alone think outside it. Zogonia come up against the lack of equipment conservation in a fantasy universe. OotS wishes what's new was still here. Intriguing to know. Well, this has easily been the most useful issue in a while for people who aren't playing 3e D&D, with some stuff for the old schoolers, and some stuff that's just generally handy for everyone. It'd probably take a lot more effort for Erik to actually include material for other systems, but this does once again show that they're working at putting the quirky and the lengthy back in the articles. Now they just need to keep pushing for the variety as well. Onwards and outwards, not settled down!</blockquote>
