1187634623[/unixtime]].. I disagre, that if a cleric wants to cast 10 or so spells, go ahead. If they want to raise the dead, go ahead. I'm not going to tell my players what they can't do, but I also generally have a "please be responsible" request. [br][br]Right, cause why should a God c...

I've always found a god going "STOP WASTING SPELLS" ends clerics indescriminantly raising people.

Dude, this sight exists to justify powergaming and bitch about how much people hate d20. It's where I go to get my dose of crazy (also RPGPundit is good for that.)

1183660435[/unixtime]] you try to use remove disease - you make a DC 20 check for "use wand" (remember the functions are listed separately), stop (spell list prerequisite already met - no CL needed, as per paladin). "Emulate class feature" seems to have been intended for stupid ...

1183644291[/unixtime]] 1183642224[/unixtime]]bigode, the section in UMD may be titled "emulate class feature" but the text actually says you get to pretend to be that class. With some class features, it doesn't make any sense to have virtual levels in a class -- Thousand Faces from druid....

Normally, to use a wand, you must have the wand’s spell on your class spell list. This use of the skill allows you to use a wand as if you had a particular spell on your class spell list. This use of the skill also applies to other spell trigger magic items, such as staffs. [br]So right here it lay...

1183605405[/unixtime]]Chuckles, are you seriously arguing that a Bard can't use the UMD skill to activate the raise dead option from a Staff of Healing on the grounds that they can activate the magic item at all without resorting to the skill?[br] [br]Okay, this makes no sense, you use can and can'...

1183587008[/unixtime]] 1183557980[/unixtime]]The last two paragraphs are of course self-evident, but what I see as a problem with the first is that emulate feature; and;use wand; are listed as separate UMD functions, and the former is specific in saying it only works if the feature is needed (by th...

I'm playing an invisible thief and am looking for some portable traps to toss in combat, so I don't have to worry about losing my invisibility. I've got caltrops, but haven't found much else. GM's kind of a by the book type guy, so if it can be found in a book somewhere, that's better.

So unless you have high level wizards getting whatever they want, you don't need to worry about 'wish and the economy', is that what I'm hearing?

I'm still not getting this.[br][br]I've heard people say that the wish economy represents literature, but in books, its dangerous to bind demons to grant wishes. So it certainly wouldn't have occurred on such a scale as to change an economy.[br][br]It costs more exp to get to 11th level, then to cre...

For the record I really like Frank Trollman and K's stuff, and I'm not trying to be argumentative, I just don't understand it. So I have a few more questions.[br][br]Why is the economy run by Wish and the Pit Fiend's? It seems to me that there are many more lower level 'things' that can make expensi...

That is, there's a market for +1 swords and there's a market for +4 swords. And your take-home on making +4 swords is sixteen times what it is on ...

1175388024[/unixtime]]Chuckles: The 15,000 GP limit comes from the wish spell itself. It can just make any magical item of 15,000 GP or less. [br][br]No it's not, it doesn't say that in the PHB or the SRD.[br][br] 1175388024[/unixtime]]Also, the reason why you couldn't just comission a wizard to ma...

What has confused me, has been that you can buy 9th level scrolls, but items that a 3rd level character can produce (mantle of energy resistance) are illegal. NPC's have to have some means of gaining experience, and there are significantly more of them at 3rd level then 17th, so shouldn't the econom...
