Re: Non-d20 D&D project

1192277778[/unixtime]][br]That's pretty much right. If at all possible, x=1, though. [br][br]So abilities work something akin to spheres, but except for spells they give you an option. And since everything will be level appropriate, by level 20 you'll have 60 powers with about 20 scales/new options...

Re: Non-d20 D&D project

1192228277[/unixtime][br][br]Well, I think that a first-level being would basically be a single rat. Adventurers are probably 4th level at minimum.[br][br]If we look at how D&D is supposed to function, you can get a full spread of relative encounters in 11 levels. 1st level things in any number...

Re: Non-d20 D&D project

Well a good way to figure out how to level things appropriately would be to figure out how many levels you want and what you want maxed out characters to be able to do. Personally I like less levels and more at each level. 10-20 is probably a good bet. Then figure out what you want pretty much every...

Re: Spell lists for everyone!

What about giving the nonspellcasting classes access to a single (or more) spheres? Maybe make a few spheres related to what fighters and barbarians would likely have access to and give them a choice. Rinse and repeat for other classes. [br][br]Actually, that sounds like a good idea. I might do that...

Re: Okay, seriously this time, who put out that Elves=Magic?

I'm pretty sure that in Races of the Wild they specify that an elf reaches physical adulthood at around 25 years old, and that they are simply expected to stay around their hometown or whatever until they reach the PHB's adulthood age. So I believe by that you could technically have a 30yr old elf w...

Re: True Fey

You should allow a magic item that allows a fey to not age on the material plane. You could also go with a feat just for flavor, but it should definitely provide more than just that. Maybe something like bonuses on stuff when on the material plane or something. I'm tired so my mind isn't exactly wor...

Great class, I assume you're completely finished right?

Mechanically I mean, because I want to see if I can use this class in a game I'm in.

Re: Shadow Warrior (Incomplete)

But with timeless body you can make attacks, with this ability you can't even attack. It's basically a get out of jail free card. A really awesome get out of jail free card.

Re: Shadow Warrior (Incomplete)

Well with all of the tricks and such that are available at 20th I assume there's not much as far as balance goes but I also assume that there's some sort of limit so the ability doesn't exactly spell out win. Aren't most of the crazy things usually complex combos?

That sounds like it'd be fun. I have no clue what high level balance looks like though. I haven't played a game past like level 8, and even then I don't have much experience.

Re: Shadow Warrior (Incomplete)

What about making it so anyone in the area can only take a single move or standard action? Would that be too good for something without a save?
