Re: Death, Corpses, and Verisimilitude

i've always wondered why the heads weren't instead just generic tokens called "proof of victory against [charname]" or something.

Re: Did you know? The HD Models & Textures Pack for Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition

I honestly don't get people complaining about this, when this is an utterly unexpected gift from Beamdog. It's for free and it's entirely optional. I think it's really tremendous work, they just need to do some few graphical fixes here and there. But overall this is great content, and an awesome gr...

Wild Mage Surge DCs

Been enjoying the class, but it seems something's broken with how these are calculated. I've rolled 'Grease: Target' and 'Web: Target', and each time the Save DC has been set at 1, which was a little disappointing. I can only assume that other offensive effects are similarly bugged, but I don't know...

Re: Spellbook Wishlists - What Would be Fun?

Something I've missed sorely from Ravenloft is the capability to cast self-target spells such as Shield and Ghostly Visage on other creatures. That, and as other people mentioned, the Mass variations of many minor buffs.

this game's pvp has always sucked, just some people got so good at it that they let the ez wins delude them into thinking otherwise.

Experimenting on the PGCC, I'm not sure what doesn't make Cleric obsolete to Favored Soul. What am I missing? Free Haste, easy access to all the worthwhile Cleric spells and[ their most desirable Domain spells, all spontaneous cast. I never felt like I was sacrificing anything. It was really easy. I...

Re: Extreme enhancement at fugue, Benwick etc

Yeah, the lag in these places is absurd. I'd avoid them outright if RP didn't take me to them. It's especially egregious in the Fugue—the last thing I want to deal with when I've just died is headache-inducing frame drops on top of it. Hopefully they'll address the issue soon, or at least tell us th...

Re: Monk change questions

The biggest crime with the Monk update is that they didn't get free Shuriken focuses. Although with this sudden glut of free feats... I'm not sure we should be so stingy with rebuilds. I get that we don't want the focus to be on perfect optimization and all, but this strikes me as a pretty significa...

I just don't get the people that call for "realism" in situations like this.

I understand those that want an element of man vs. nature - that sorta...
