Lightning Gauntlets (and the picture) are from MIC. Other way around. The Lightning Gauntlets in MIC are very obviously just a pointless joke-item that no one will ever use, that someone spent like two whole minutes pulling out of their ass, so that WotC had an excuse to re-use the art they commiss...

An oldie but a goodie: Mormon Jesus.

Are you using an XP uncapper? Huh.. no. Its the BG 2 Enhanced Edition from Steam. It comes with ToB I think. Okay, I'm not really familiar with that. Does it still come with an Override folder containing two files named "XPCap" and "XPLevel"? Re: Dual-classing. Either do it now ...

Magic Item Compendium is full of garbage and really overrated. I hate that book so much, Weapon and Armor Crystals seriously make me want to burn all my D&D books and never play again they are so fucking dumb. Seconding this. Thirding it. Maybe the MiC would have been better if it didn't nerf a...

I think my kidney-crayons may have gangrene as well.

I call it 3.C

So, apparently, Nick decided to just dump the remaining 4 episodes tonight.

I never linked Spongebob with march music, but I guess it works.

Sooner or later, if characters get hig enough level, they will be archmages. If not at 11th level, then at 16th level. Or 27th level. Or whatever the fuck. Elminster exists, and he is an archmage. You can't make him not exist, you can only make him be higher or lower level. Whatever level you set E...

Well, if your goal is to herd all the cats towards level-appropriate abilities by upgrading to new and Different power sources, then you just plain shouldn't have shit like Archmages in the game. But other than I can't see any particular reasons why you couldn't split it up, assuming that you are in...

So, Opinions on Avatar Wan's story? Well, it did have a few patches of bad writing, but they didn't overshadow everything or really detract from the story, so I didn't much mind. Especially since the story was simple and straightforward for a change instead of being weighed down by shitty side-plot...

You mean, use one of the unforgivable curses? If mind control is black magic that doesn't get taught in wizard school. Then the chances of it happening are approaching nil. Actually, the chances of it happening are exactly 100%, because Harry Potter-spells are powered by knowing their fucking names...

Not as long as you can mind-control someone who comes with those skills.

You put Soulfire from BoED on a pair of Bracers of AC.

Most fantasy settings, you can just say 'High God of Pantheon X doesn't like guns. He actually disrupts any such attempt'. Of course, I hate active gods. But if you've got them, that's the type of setting conceit you should totally have them enforce. You could use cartoon gremlins instead, then.

The problem with HP magic is that it's all offence and no defence, and the wizards end up spending 7 years in a living nightmare just so they can learn to use a glorified shotgun with a shitty fantasy veneer, when they could have just had some fucking shotguns. And some landmines. And just fucking k...

Plus, the writing just doesn't seem as good... I'm assuming some linchpin members of TLA's writing staff didn't make the transition to LoK. Yes, those would be... all of them. LoK apparently does not have any actual writers involved in it's writing. Instead, the whole thing is written by the two du...

The underlying math of the game. We’ll run stress tests on the numbers, monster abilities, and so on to make sure that everything shakes out as we expect. This work is important to making adventure and encounter design fast and easy. It also ensures that the classes play fair. You will fail Mearls....

Well, we knew ahead of time that 5e was dead in the water. The only thing we have learned today is that the emperor will catch pneumonia if he keeps taking fashion tips from Mike Mearls.

Couldn't stop thinking about this. Then I read Erik's comment below, and now I think...someone should write this. And the rapist should turn out to be Batman. Well, that's the thing, John Byrne already wrote that story, though the rapist is actually Darkseid/John Byrne. Wat. This analogy is basical...

DC's damage control is that it's supposed to be a 4th wall breaking scene, where Harley is contemplating suicide over the stupid shit DC makes her do.

Take that for what you will.
