Just imagine an episode of Cops where the police come to the scene and start asking questions. So one dude, instead of answering the cops questions, decides he's going to ignore the cops, whip out a guitar and start playing a song. There's no way that's going to net him a reaction bonus. Yeah, the ...

Applying Lizard twice works sort of like teemo's e, no? the champs that always utilized lizard well never let the DoT drop off of you, Hecarim, Evelynn, etc. Stacking that dot isnt a bad thing. I suppose that the quick speed at which lucian would reapply it would be less effective than the time inte...

Honestly if lizard spirit and tear didnt get nerfed so hard he'd be a decent blue-build duelist thanks to his passive. Getting to apply Botrk / Muramana and lizard twice in a row aint bad.

Edit: Though the stength of bluebuild is for poke and zoning im pretty sure, and this guy would suck at that.

Bottom lane is all about combo vs combo, and how you play it. Lucian doesnt auto counter Vayne and Vayne doesnt auto-counter Lucian.

If it were a matter of 1v1 however, Vayne would almost always win.

'While blinking, you can step through (but not see through) solid objects. For each 5 feet of solid material you walk through, there is a 50% chance that you become material.

Also the time a player for awhile wanted us to roll dice and make decisions for his character while he'd go play League of Legends. Kinda defeats purpose of the game, when not even bothering to ROLEPLAY in a damn RPG! "I dunno dood just roll my dice! I'm in the middle of a game!' YEAH. A GAME ...

Turn doesn't have any meaning at all in 3.5, but to the extent that it matters, turn used to mean in 2e a period of seven rounds, so by the same logic that you use 4e to figure out what it means to say that you get it for each person, you instead get it once every seven rounds. But my interpretatio...

Once per turn vs Once per round in Tome/3.5

Mainly for things such as Legendary Strategist's 'A World of Opportunity (Ex): Once per turn, a Legendary Strategist may take an Immediate Action without using up his swift action next round.' Does once per turn mean once during each individual creature's turn in a round? I ask because there are man...

Heya, looking for serious answers to help inform a friend

Need some reasons why pathfinder is bad. I mean, we know it is, but I dont have the books and need to give him informed reasons on why not to bother with it. Also in specific, how rogues in PF are weaker than 3.5.

Thanks =D

3.5 Warlock who pushes people alot and does alot of d6s.

I remember seeing something about something like this on wizards forums billions of years ago before 4.5 crushed the forums.

Wat do.

(A warlock can supposedly optimize to push people 500' or something eery eldritch blast then do an extra d6 of damage for every 5 feet?)

Alot of people pro-random loot seem opposed to the MMO mentality of gaining loot. Except, it pretty much works the same way in 3rd/4th. In an MMO, there is only a certain number of things that can drop at a certain level. Better stuff drops from bosses. In DnD, there are only a certain number of thi...

Seems like this entire time we're assuming someone is demanding a katana in a world with no asia equivalent. Because they did just that.

Let's move this to Druids, because people have less sympathy for them and don't feel the need to distort the game because of years of training based on them being a shitty class that needs the DM to sandbag so they can contribute.

If people want to use a specific weapon simply cause they like them, let them. Jeesh.

If you like weapon diversity so much why isnt Tome Soulborn written to make 'weapons of blue soulfire' rather than 'swords of blue soulfire'?
