I once played on a world that had boots which made you immune to spells level 6 and below. They also gave you -10 Dex AND -10 Dodge AC and some more penalties to your saves.... in short yeah you were resistant to lots of spells but you had the crap kicked out of you if you had them on at the wrong ...

This should help with epic level players wiping out lowbie areas, as they would have to work a lot harder for that 8 xp, chasing them all over the map as they run in fear from the nasty character. Cowardly mobs would help the problem, abolishing the whole "minimum xp" nonsense would fix it entirely...

u mean a good rogue? cuz i can see them rejecting a lawful evil one.... not to mention... no evidence to not let rogues into NC isnt evidence... Seeing as the NC only accept LG, NG or LN I did not think I had to explicitly exclude LE rogues from my statement, but yes, by Lawful I did mean LG or LN....

gud stuff... i dont see why there's no reason not to add more faction in the future... I think there is a limit of 10 factions in the NWN engine and I think all are being used in NS4. 7 player factions, The Fey, The Order of the Way and Aggressive Critters. The Fey faction is what gives the Circle ...

... or a Rogue being part of the Northen Coalition. Some of the choices make sence, others I don't see the logic, but hey, that's just me. Rogues can be of any alignment, including LG and LN. This means the role of a rogue is a lot more varied than the stereotypical Thief. I can see no good reason ...

The description of Blind Fighting says you get to reroll your miss chance when blinded or when fighting invisible targets. I believe this works when you are in magical darkness but does anyone know if it also includes the miss chance for concealed targets?

Can you disarm the monsters that have a chance to drop their weap, however (i.e. ogres and maybe giants, etc)? About 1 in 10 you can disarm. I assume it is because they actually spawned with the weapon. If I remember correctly, they were worried about higher lvl disarms being too cheap and allowing...

I think he's talking about creatures that always appear armed (like guards, ogres, etc.), even if they don't actually have the item for purposes of a drop. Exactly right. Bandit Guards always appear to be wielding a halberd but they do not actually have a halberd equipped. Disarming them previously...

I am not sure if it is the latest Bioware patch or a change in NS4 but you can now only disarm targets that are actually equipped with a weapon. So unless (for example) the Bandit Guards actually spawn with a halberd equipped you can no longer disarm their halberds. I have tested it on virtually all...

The major concern I have over this is the relative imbalance of the penalty based on class. If a fighter loses weapon, armour or shield he is unable to function anywhere near as effectively until it is replaced. The same can not be said for casters, especially wizards and sorcerors. <sarcasm size="5...

What's specifically wrong with the cleric 35 / fighter 5 "only" having 10 + 5 * int bonus skill points available for fighter exclusive skills--excepting two poorly implemented combat feats that are overpowered compared to PnP? I agree that Discipline is the primary reason for multiclassing to gain ...

Since there are so few spells in Abjuration that have a save (only 2 or 3 come to mind) perhaps dedicated Abjurers could be looked on as dispel, breach and mantle experts. The three focuses give +2, +4 and then +6 to the DC of spells from that school. Perhaps spell focuses in Abjuration could enhanc...

Now that means that a 19 cleric/ 1 monk will get whatever their Wis is cut by 1/5th before it is added to their AC. Again I ask, what is the obsession with almost every balancing act being a reduction in one rather than a boost to the other? Also you do not see a lot of clerics/monks that wear robe...

Got through the tedious part of it plus solving the not quite possible with the toolset stuff you always encounter. Only way to do it allows an exploit, but it can be caught and tracked, so not a big deal there. Instead of taking away from one to even things out, why not give to the other? Give a b...

I have found what I believe to be a bug with Invisibility Purge but the more I think about it the more I think it is a good bug and should be expanded on. Let me explain. First test case, Cast Improved Invis : Gives Invis and Concealment effects. Cast Invis Purge : Removes Invis and Concealment effe...
