1108191775[/unixtime]][br]Of course, if you meant "attack" to mean "damage/soak" - then I apologize. [br][br]Yep, that was basically it ;)[br]And I realize that that is basically the system you proposed 6 pages back.[br][br]The Damage/Soak as opposed ability checks seems both lo...

1097043856[/unixtime]][br]Like five or so, unless you count all the damn TAs I've had who have also at some point worked in one or more of the yeast labs. I go to UCSC, we do the genome project, and my intro to neuroscience class is held right underneath the computer banks which hold the entire seq...

1097140295[/unixtime]]What about the 20 + spell level DC use of spellcraft that lets you identify a spell already in place? It says you have to see or detect the effects of the spell, which is pretty evident for an illusion I think. [br]Which basically means that if you successfully disbelieve, you...

RandomCasualty, it seems like you're trying to make a non level based system (like Alternity, GURPS, etc) while retaining the levels. Am I wrong?

Edit- GURPS, not GRUPS. BAH!

Not really my business, but how many yeast researchers do you know???

I have no idea about the comic, but in the cartoon Raven can totally kick anyone's ass. As you already said, she can Scry, Teleport, and TK, which on it's own is enough for ambushes.[br] With TK alone, she already has every ability that that terra chick had.[br][br] She also can create (seemingly a...

1096870376[/unixtime]][br]But see that's where my diminihsing returns system would differ. Basically everything goes into a combined pool, and is then diminished. So for instance, your magic items, regardless of bonus type all go into the same pool. If you have two rings of protection +1, and an am...

1096822632[/unixtime]][br][br]Every time the Wizard gets a new option, the Fighter's bonuses have to rise relatively to that , or he's not getting anything in exchange for the options he's not getting. [br][br]Maybe every time the Wizard gets a new option, the Fighter needs to get a new option. Fig...

1096673029[/unixtime]][br]Having something published in a book automatically sets it as a standard. The Sacred Fist I put on the board is underpowered compared to another cleric PrC, yet it will always be compared against the crack-ass 3.5E Sacred Fist. Which sucks HORRIBLY, and I have an impossibl...

1096667077[/unixtime]]Link?[br][br]Sigh. Anyone who thought the True Necromancer was a good idea needs to be shot. And the worst part is that with all the Mystic Theurge + True Necromancer = Shitty Spells At High Caster Level!!!! OMFG!!!! threads, I can only imagine that they'll give the True Necro...

1096577059[/unixtime]][br] Think about it in terms of Diablo II. Sometimes you see a Fire/Ice Sorceress, sometimes you see an Ice/Lightning Sorceress, and sometimes you see a Lightning/Fire Sorceress. If you opened things up so that you could be a Fire/Bow Sorceress or a Lightning/Spear Sorceress, ...

-K

I'm glad to know that my reputation can precede me!

I woulden't like to play a game like this, but knock yourself out.[br]You're basically just hogtieing a somewhat broken system and saying, "Fixed!" Plus, everyone is stupid if they don't take 1 spellcaster level.[br][br]And what, does a Wizard 1/Sorcerer 1/Druid 1/Cleric 1 have 16/16/4 tot...

That alone might make the book worth buying.

[br] [TGFBS][br][br]To keep the other thread on topic, this portion of the thread was split off. As long as it remains lighthearted, I see no reason we can't keep it open.[br][br][/TGFBS] [br][br] 1095718130[/unixtime]]Kewl.
