Also, because of the way the wording is listed, You could be a Wizard 3/Cleric 3/Mystic Theurge 1/Druid 1/Sorcerer 1/Warmage 1 And as a level 10 character you would have 10th level casting in five different classes. Actually, you only get one of each: If a character had more than one arcane spellca...

No. probability does not work that way. You have a 95% chance of succeeding on each individual roll. To get the chance of two unrelated events occurring, you multiply the probabilities together. so if you have six rolls, the probability is .95 * .95 * .95 * .95 * .95 * .95= .73, and a 27% chance of...

I was more responding to your first sentence about it making SR meaningless if you already get a save. It shouldn't have quoted the second sentence about Evasion/Mettle. Although, using Sigma's approach would get rid of the need for the second save, so I agree with you there. Ah. Yeah, adding anoth...

It could allow a double save, but that doesn't help the annoyance of two rolls; it merely removes one mechanic... :/ I didn't mean a double save; if you would get a save, you go with sigma's idea and get Evasion/Mettle with 5 over the DC or whatever, and if you wouldn't already get a save you now g...

[*]Should there be otherwise identical feats that are separately available to fiends, celestials, and whatever else, or will the more generic ones be united under the 'monster' heading? The advantage of keeping it separate is being able to give access to 'fiend feats' without having to allow access...

I don't think the psychometabolist should be able to directly heal others, but drawing in others' wounds to himself and transferring them to enemies like empathic transfer would be something good to include.

Yeah, I'm not seeing a downside to this, given that you're essentially a gestalt arcane//divine caster with it. Adding half of the existing levels would probably be a better idea, so you'll at least be a level or two behind in each.

What if SR, instead of being a new mechanic, was just a flag that said they would get to save on things they otherwise would not? That would make me happier, honestly, it's the double-roll that peeves me. -Crissa That's a good idea, but makes SR meaningless against spells that do allow saves. Maybe...

Might want to change the multiplier syntax to long hand instead of shorthand where it might be confusing. 5K is also 'five thousand'. Good point. Will change. I think it's a nice start, but I'm not completely sure it's Tome level, if you're asking. It'd fit fine in the campaigns I'm in. Oh, I'm not...

- Why the restriction to class levels? I can't see any balance reason, all it seems to do is prevent effective multiclassing. Oops, those should be character level. Will fix. - Named bonuses from class features are a bad idea. Why? Not sarcasm; considering they can get to be up to +20 bonuses towar...

Monk Fix for Review

Hey folks, longtime lurker, first-time poster, etc. I'm working on my own 3e revision (aiming at Tome-scale, but don't know if I'll ever get there) and was looking for critique on some things, in this case the monk. The other forums I frequent have posters who are, shall we say, somewhat averse to h...
