Can you go up more than one level in an adventure, or are you capped at 1 xp below the second level, like in the previous editions?<br><br>Thanks for any...
Yes, you can gain more than 1 level per adventure. In fact, in the TSR adventure serie (Sunless Citadelle, Forge of Fury, etc.) the PCs are expected to gain ...
Thanks for the response, leprophet. Actually, experience IS handed out at the end of each session. We ran into a situation where one of our characters was very...
Different groups and DMs will level at different rates. I like playing and DMing at lower levels, so xps are stingy, and a 5th level PC is fairly powerful. ...
I would allow him to get his 2 levels... but, I'm a pretty easy going DM... I know some people wouldn't allow that sort of thing, maybe leaving the PC in ...
The way I do it is this. If a pc levels during a mission he its just like a wizard learning his spells. He wont get to take advantage of it until he gets a...
Lets assume you have a PC with stats 10 to 12 down the line. What is the best class (or combination) for Joe average to be?<br><br>I would argue Rogue or Bard....
Even with the slower spell progression, the bard is goign to get hosed for spells reasonably quickly. What's more, while the bard has a decent skill selection,...
Does anybody know where I can get a prog that creats elvin names????? Preferably share ware or something of the like that is free or a site that I could go to,...
The Bard and PSIONIC are both excellent solo classes. The 3E Psion may be the BEST solo class available and now that his abilities are consistent with magic, ...
Rule 0 applies. Whatever the DM decided. I found that this SHOULD never come up if the encounters are being balanced properly though, because it is IMPOSSIBLE...
The FR book gives you enough to go by, since very little changes as you progress further, other than options we don't know about yet that are supposed to come ...
Thay is under new rule and economic warfare is the best tool for world domination. Ask America!<br>We attacked and usurped a sovereign nation to route out one...
This should come from a founder, but "third edition d and d club" is probably not the right place to discuss current world events. If you would like, you could...
OK, I was bored. So, I went to the big gaming store that has a board (does it terrify anyone else to call numbers off a gaming board? I've met some real ...
I'd suggest accepting being the weakest link. None of Drizzt's companions were anywhere near his level of skill, but they still adventured together. Maybe you...
I have no problem being the weakest link. One problem is that the 6th level PC who takes leadership has a sidekick (a cohort) who is significantly higher level...
Like I said, take on another character as a mentor. Perhaps you could act as a temorary cohort until the experience difference is less dramatic. And you should...
Just my own 2 bits.<br><br>This is definately a problem on the part of the GM - I can only assume the GM has implemented this rule many times (which says ...
1. This is a problem<br>2. Here is what I would do: The DM has the policy for a reason, but given the situation, it appears that an exception WOULD be helping...
Haste bonuses and effects don't stack, since they are a named bonus type. So since the sword is giving you a haste bonus, this should be a non issue, shouldn't...
Rogues and Rangers get ABUSED for their first level advantages, but the rogue in particular should be left as is. He NEEDS those points so they may look like a...
Dammit, Dammit, Dammit. I knew those alternate rules for XP were somewhere.<br><br>I spent a few hours pouring through books searching for it, and, although I ...
You should do your DM a favor and recommend that from this time forward he should let new characters come in based on the average party level. That makes more...
Wannabesuperman --<br><br>I think this date should be marked on our calendars. It is the first time we have ever agreed.<br><br>Starting way behind in 2nd Ed...
The problem with "average party level" rules is that people can actually LEVEL just by killing off their character! <br>I choose the middle ground ion my game:...
