Re: A couple of new combat feats for function and flavor!

A new idea for the +16 ability for the Two-Hander feat:[br][br] Two-Hander [Combat] [br]You like to hit things with something it takes both hands to lift.[br] Benefit: You deal two times your Strength modifier in damage when wielding a two-handed weapon using both hands.[br] +1: You gain a +2 to hit...

Re: A couple of new combat feats for function and flavor!

1182922095[/unixtime]]Unfortunately this feat doesn't actually let you do anything, it just gives you numerical bonuses. I was under the impression that Combat feats are supposed give you at least 2 or 3 cool new tricks to play with when you reach the various BAB requisites. I might come up with su...

A couple of new combat feats for function and flavor!

So my friends and I love these rules, but we felt there were a few things missing in the combat feats. With the current rules, there is no advantage to wielding a two-handed weapon - ever. There's also no reason to ever shoot a crossbow. The first two feats cover those issues.[br][br]Next, I wanted ...

Re: Questions!

Okay, so now I've got even MORE questions![br][br]1) Okay, so the multiarmed thing is bothering me (especially since the new Two-Weapon Fighting is BETTER than the old Multiweapon Fighting feat). How does (or should) it work?[br][br]2) This quote is crazy:[br][br]Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Jester...

Re: Questions!

Hmmm. Interesting. I think "riccochets make no real-world sense" comes under the same heading as "let's make Int count for crossbows," but I take your reasoning. It also adds another reason for Assassins to employ their most iconic weapon (okay, maybe the MOST iconic would be a d...

Re: Questions!

Thanks for all the replies. That last one actually brought up yet another question:[br][br]If TWF now grants a number of attacks with your "off-hand" equal to the number you'd get with your primary hand, then what exactly happens if you have more than one off-hand? Is there any need for a ...

Re: Questions!

And yet another query:

Since Fire Mages and Warlocks get to use blasts as "attack actions," can they also therefore use them to perform attacks of opportunity?

Re: Questions!

Noted and updated. Definately missed on the "shots" thing. I used "provokes" because it implies "Aoos," but hey, I'm all for specificity.[br][br]Although I like the new Monk, I'm not sure if I buy his fighting styles completely eclipsing Tome of Battle. ToB allows for s...

Re: Tome Series - Character Creation Thread!

New to the forum - HI![br][br]I've fallen in love with this ruleset, and have been manically designing characters. I could stat these out fully, but I thought I'd just post the bare bones (feats, classes, and tactics) to give folks an idea of where I'm coming from.[br][br]Cheers![br][br]Molly Murder...

Questions!

Hi all! I just got turned on to these Homebrew rules by a friend (who is usually offered up by our group on the DM altar) and am thrilled and impressed. Most of what is pathetically unbalanced and ill-concieved in d20 has been dealt with (somewhere!) on these boards, and done so while maintaining th...
