While I'm happy with some of the things 3e did with Rangers (specifically, sharpening up the natural enemy rules) I can't help but feel that Rangers got the ...
Having stumbled across a particular combination that I anticipate my players will take advantage of, I was wondering if anyone had yet seen this in action. If...
hmm, very good points. I knew that the easy multiclassing would be abused a bit, long before it came out. the secret to preventing it is:<br>a) special class ...
hey! cool, invest five ranks in bluff minimum and they have to ROLEPLAY what they are bluffing. if the player cann't do a good job of bluffing he should stick ...
psionics has recieved a major upgrade! at least according to roumer. seemless intergration to the rules, no more confusion no more contact or psychic combat,...
I'm delighted with what I have been hearing about the new psionic rules: it seems they will integrate more smoothly with existing rules than past incarnation,...
How do YOU want to play her ? I always look at the skills & feats then decide how & why the PC took them.O'kay I know some people have no idea how to roleplay ...
Personally, I take my personality and modify it to fit the character's race and class. I used to play a human thief, so I'd use my personality, then add some...
I was playing a game with my friend and his cousin the other day, and it seems that roleplayers are a dying breed. I mean, a NE cleric was willing to spare...
Hi, I've been reading some of the strings here and looking over a lot of the new 3rd Ed rules. One thing I never agreed on was the to-hit modifer based solely...
I think the reason behind that was the fighter. a Fighter needs strength, but when is he gonna consider Dex for anything but AC? so, they put it in there. ...
I don't know. I would just find it more believable if a more agile fighter had a better chance of landing a blow than lumbering hulk. Drizzt vs an Ogre? Not...
For what it's worth, 3rd Ed has addressed this issue. Strength still provides the default attack bonus. However one of the new Feats, Weapon Finesse, allows...
Excellent (Mr. Burns style) Thanks for the info. As I stated, I wasn't sure if the 3rd Ed. rules took this into account. I'm glad they did and I think it's ...
well you are right, they addressed it. I knew about weapon finesse, but i just thought that it should be the other way around for most weapons. I mean, ...
Been playing with the 3e rules and rolled a Sorceror today. Didn't think much of the feats or skills available to the Wizard/Sorceror class. There are few and ...
Kinda two seperate topics, Skills and Feats:<br>As far as Skills go: Don't expect Sorcerers to have too many skills to begin with. At a base 2 per level, ...
Ok, Feats.<br><br>Feats are another matter entirely. At first glance, Sorcerers get the shaft with them too. However, it's important to remember that they mean...
There's definately a lot of logic to going with a Dex-driven combat model, and I could hardly argue with any GM who does so. However, I would not, for three ...
Thanks for the feedback. A lot of the feats are only useful at higher levels or they require the character to pay for them along the way by using a higher ...
You see, I'm on the side of your last point, what is more exciting to watch? The slow warriors battle it out or the 2 fast moving agile combatants. Why is...
If you want to keep fights looking interesting and cinematic, but also want to account for strength, it's important to remember that power mooves are just as...
Also, a quick aside that your username put me in mind of.<br><br>For a wonderful display of different fighting styles, the old 1970's 3 Musketeers is excellent...
Has anyone here had a chance to play at a local Con? If not, I highly recommend you do so! I was at Tacticon this last weekend and boy was it cool. My ...
I am impressed. I like 3rd Ed and am currently playing in the Living Greyhawk games at Cons. I love the fact that each state has a geographic equivilant in the...
It is the best DMG I have ever seen. Be sure to ck out the new prestigous Carater Classes. They are Really Neat. For the person who brought up weliding a ...
I have a large kindom as my urban setting and crime is rampant... there is a new guard being formed by the new king, who has recently returned form his holy...
