Re: Playing a warlock ... as I see it

If a core rulebook disagrees with a supplemental book, the core rulebook generally wins. My understanding is that the Rules Compendium was released expressly to update and gather together the rules of 3.5e near the very end of the version cycle. The introduction states that "when a preexisting...

Rules Compendium disagrees with you in that regard, goes by the heading Unobtrusive Spellcasting under Sleight of Hand. Obviously it's DM discretion though.

Re: Playing a warlock ... as I see it

Keeping secrets takes careful planning and significant effort; people who don't put forth that effort and don't make the needed plans don't get to keep secrets, and that applies to everything ever. Precisely. Want to keep your powers secret? Don't use them near others. It's the same reason Olaf doe...

Re: Playing a warlock ... as I see it

You don't want someone to know the ins and out of your warlock magic.......... don't cast it publically. Otherwise it is only a matter of (likely short) time until you're outed. Certainly just staying in the closet is the only certain way. But I'm sure it would be fun for (most) warlock players to ...

Re: Playing a warlock ... as I see it

JLM, use of Spellcraft for a variety of it's functions is a "no action required" in PnP. Not a free action, not a move action, not a full round action. Just a "no action" (which to my mind could just be read as "free action"). Kind of means you could do it multiple tim...

Re: Playing a warlock ... as I see it

DMs call. I doubt any of the source books go into such minutia as "well if he promises his soul to a demon but is a faithful follower of tyr who gets the soul".

Re: Really Role Playing a warlock ... as I see it

As a clear example of how VERY different Rp is for a worlock , than for ALL other classes of spellcasters... Disobeying or coming into conflict can lead to sudden loss of all warlock powers , until such conflict is resolved. Here is a case wher my own self defined way to Rp this class bit me in the...

Re: Proposal: Bring Spells in line with PnP

The suggestions about a low DR for Endure Elements and maintaining the 30' spell cones are sound suggestions; the points raised about how handling all these things at once to cut down on doubling back is sound advice as well. For now I'm going to let this brainstorming thread sit.

Re: Screenshots Needed

If the event is significant to ALFA canon and known widely-enough that it would be a feasible target for a casting of Legend Lore , I'd be interested in the details; the ceremony might merit a screenshot and a blurb in its own right. I believe that particular ceremony was to bestow an honorific tit...

Re: Screenshots Needed

The first wave of these are looking for shots to represent ALFA's build of: Awwww hell yeah, time to look through my screenshots. These might need some cropping to remove Olaf but the resolution should allow for a bit of that, as well as touching up light levels etc.; if not I can definitely aim to...

Oh...and as Heero so eloquently said earlier...Faerun is medieval justice system. Unless your PC is a (real) noble, very high status hero, or extremely wealthy and connected with aristocracy you can't expect anything resembling a trial as we know them today ;) THROW HER INTO THE POND! http://i.imgu...
