[QUOTE="jontherev, post: 111700, member: 1451"] [b]Re: Re: Re: How about Fire giants instead of Red Dragons?[/b] Nice assumptions there. Everything my pc has was obtained in-game from the DM and I break no rules. You can act like my 10 year old (when she was 5) if it strokes your ego, but I won't engage in a pointless and childish trading of insults. Brilliantus? Twink-boy? Please. I said nothing about grappling the giant, just tripping him. Please read my post next time before replying. Yes, I would be hitting on a 2 most likely with 3 of the 4 attacks. Remember, he gets no dex vs. an invisible opponent (or a blinking one). The bola is a ranged touch attack that trips whatever it hits. If my DM wanted to really enforce the reaching vitals rule (open to interpretation if you ask me), giants should be effectively immune to crits as well unless you have a reach weapon or something. Crits and sneak attack work exactly alike mechanics-wise. If you'll notice, it doesn't say anything about this under the Giant's description. Being nearly immune to crits and sneak attacks should definitely be talked about under the description if it was a defense they had. How was I provoking AoO's? I have tumble. Also, even if my average damage was only, say, 55 damage/round, my point is made. I can do this all day long against crittable foes. How many Ray of Frost's are you gonna have? And this is only REALLY useful vs. fire critters. Against anything else, it's not that great when compared to a rogue's other options. [/QUOTE]
