Given the way halflings assassinate giants, I think trip would make more sense.


It should be Seeker bonuses.  It’s built into just about every rogue item already.

Oh I'm sorry, i guess they just pulled the idea for the game out of their asses and belched up the core rules.



I wish he were trolling...

This just makes me  Cry
  

A half-dozen boss Vaulties donated generously with real money to my classroom during a fundraiser in May 2015 to get poor kids books to read. I won't forget that. They know who they are, and they freaking rule.

Good grief Meat, you're hopeless. You would label the simple act of taking a shit as someone obeying the divine law of nature to leave a proof of existence.

Are Haunted Halls just Epic or is there a Heroic version as well?

What are you even talking about?  They haven't used the Core Rules since day one.  They used the Core Rules as their "inspiration", but DDO has never been D&D.  You can't come up with interesting alternative solutions for obstacles in DDO and you get to know ahead of time what you're facing in DDO because you run the same quests repeatedly.  That's VERY far from the concept behind D&D.

I'm not talking about running quests, I'm talking about the basic core system, like STR goes to hit and damage, Dex to AC and ref saves. No shit running a quest isn't the same as pen and paper.

i am completely confused by what's going on at Turbine/DDO.

Either this is it's last year with real developer dollars before maintenance mode, or the departure of http://www.ddovault.com/Images/Fernando4.png and Feather and whoever else departed recently will mean a complete 180 with the way the game develops. I mean, taking down Mournlands? Lama as Alpha server? 2 to 3 hour dungeons with famous people voice overs?

Nerfing MONKS?!

Epic Completionist is BADSS.

Gravity is in danger.


Well, from what Maj has posted, it should be the part in red.  I'm cautiously optimistic.

like PrE's
AC system
glancing blows
to hit changes
epic system
etc.

yeah sure the basics are pnp based but the game designers have freely deviated from pnp on many occasions when they deemed it necessary.

We want Dragonborn!

Okay, it might not be happening.

We want kender!!! (almost exactly the same as halflings but cannot be lawful and has a racial line for staves and throwing weapons instead of sneak attack).

I can see it now... a portal to Krynn...

That's a good point.  No other game has ever had attack values determined by Strength or had a system for determining if your efforts at defense have managed to mitigate incoming damage.

Gnomes get +2 Int.  That's huge.  Or at least it used to be huge when +2 Int actually mattered.  Besides, we have Gnomes in DDO now.  Tall, skinny gnomes that get bonuses to Spell Penetration.

So instead of tall, skinny ugly fuckers we'd get short, fat ugly fuckers that don't give anything new? Basicly dorfs with bonus to INT?

Yup, I can see gnomes coming in the near future for only 1250 TP
