The Gaming Den

How is the dire syringe balanced with power attack?

While this book obviously didn't fix the gap between fighters and casters it seemed pretty interesting and seems like a lot of people around here think it's decent. If I wanted to play a level appropriate Warblade or Crusader from levels 1 to 10 what kind of build should I make?

Where can I get a copy? Wait, better make that a case of copies.

I second this.

Yeah web.archive.org only goes back to 2007 for Gleemax.

Lame.

Is there a way to view threads from the Gleemax archives now that that Wizards has fucked everything up? I can find the threads in Google but when I click them it just drops me off at the WOTC community center.

Gear in Diablo 2 isn't all pluses. The most obvious item would be the rune word Enigma which literally is a game changer, giving any class the ability to teleport which is a pretty big deal. There's also the Chaos runeword which allows Asssassin's the ability to whirlwind like a barbarian or Wolfhow...

The tome monk is a good archer, and so is the tome samurai. The Samurai has a lot of AoO abilities that don't work at range. Why not? The point blank shot feat lets you threaten out 30' with your bow at level 11, the same level you can start taking all of your AOO's on a person as an immediate acti...

Yeah the arrow demon is what made one of my friends think of doing it in the first place, which is how the conversation came up.

If you were a tiefling or asimar you could take the fiend extra arms feat and still TWF with bows right?

Seems to me that bows, unless you are a barbarian, are for the most part superior to using melee weapons. Point blank shot stack with blitz and you can power attack on top of it without even having to take the AOO from blitz. A weapon using monk might as well use a bow so he can force saves for stuf...

Getting pissed because you got into bumpers cars and were driving around and got bumped is retarded.

They were in a pvp zone, if they didn't want to be killed by members of an opposing faction then maybe they shouldn't be in a pvp zone.

Thor, maybe, but the Hulk? If you read old Hulk comics (or the Thing or any other strong-but-invulnerable hero), a "simple" knock-out gas bomb is usually enough to stop him (when required for plot reasons). Actually, the Hulk can fucking hulk out. During the World War Hulk crossover he pr...

I haven't read it before and a quick search turned up nothing, link?

So yeah, I've been wanting to run a superhero campaign for a while now, however I don't really know a good system to run it in. The only book I've really looked at is the newest edition of Mutants and Masterminds but from what I've read and seen it definitely has some problems.
