Roy: That's true, but you still happen to be wrong in this instance. It's not so much a case of CustServ verifying it, not a case of how things should work, it's a matter of "The rules as written allow this crazy shit". So perhaps, before assuming someone is wrong and telling them to read...

So how long before somebody on the WotC boards decries this as totally broken despite the weakness of your minion's powers? Five seconds. Ten, if you'll only count it as long as the complainer points to something far worse and claims it to be better, or vice versa. Kinda like all those people who f...

And it is extremely well established CustServ has no idea what the fuck they are talking about.

Antumbra, I give you the Golden Thread Award.

You are aware how the system actually works before remarking on it, correct? Because to take an 8th level maneuver, you need an IL of 15. Your IL is = to the number of levels in the relevant martial adept + half your levels in anything else. Ergo, you must be at least level 15. It was missed by them...

I have to ask. Were names changed to protect privacy?

...So they have 'Sarah' doing nothing but casting Magic Missile at the Darkness, which the others constantly bumble into? *stare*

He's not afraid to tell it like it is. Most people don't like the truth. Particularly when it involves calling someone on their incompetence. *shrugs*

Edit: Wow. This forum is glitching hard. Thought I'd have a double post to fix. Apparently not. Or the mods are really fast. Either is good for me.

Lol. Age of Worms is the Natural Selection for horrible players. I've ran one before, and had a better party than this. I almost TPKed them in the very first fight of the campaign, then almost TPKed them again in the second fight... One actually died here, because the entire party tried to run acros...

Fun fact: The 3.0 Druid got basically no screen time. Well, she got a little, but that's it. They shipped the PHBs, then realized 'Oops, the 3rd level Druid's Grizzly Bear is superior to Tordek the 3rd level Fighter in every way!' and tried to fix it in the DMG. Despite that, in 3.5 they fucked up i...

Re: The DM is god talk. Personally, I have a hard time getting it, though I think that stems from my perspective. From my view, it is me the player picking the DM, not the DM picking the player. This is because where I game, I can peruse many DMs offering a variety of concepts and show interest in t...

I almost always start at at least level 3. Most often 3-5, sometimes higher depending. Level 1 and 2 is just get randomly killed in 1-2 hits by some peon, which leads to disposable character syndrome. Seeing as disposable character syndrome is essentially the antithesis of roleplay, and I like my ro...
