Q80

How is there no such thing as a Light domain? Am I blind, or was one of the most obnoxiously common cleric tropes ignored in favor of having both a Commerce and a Trade domain?
So you end up stuck in an endless loop, unable to act, forever.

In retrospect, much like Keanu Reeves.

Q81: What do these lines from the Quasilycanthrope template entails, exactly? "The lycanthrope takes a few characteristics of some type of carnivorous or omnivorous creature of the animal type (referred to hereafter as the base animal)." and "A quasilycanthrope uses the base creature's statistics and special abilities in addition to those described here." As an exemple, what do you get if you're, say, a Quasiweretiger?
"An ally of truth."

Q82 Is there a simple way to add Sense Motive to a druid's class skill list?  Preferably without using a feat?

Q83 Is there a way, other than Able Learner, to make a class skill for a base class (Diplomacy) act like a class skill for subsequent classes (prestige and non)?

everything you get from a non-Quasiweretiger member of the character's race plus the Shapechanger subtype, DR10/Silver, and the disguise Self ability.

I am constantly amazed by how many DM's ban Tomb of Battle.  The book doesn't even exist!

^Wow, I can't believe I actually had to post that up. Comeback to D&D 3.5 from a lil' incursion into Shadowrun 4E rules mess is confusing my comprehension of diverse rules and wordings. Sucks to be me. :(

Anyway, thanks. ;)

Dunno if this (clicky!) can help you.

Q84: Is there any way to approximate a camera/photographs in D&D? Y'know, in case you're in a political campaign and you want to defame the enemy by spreading pictures of him with the rogue disguised as a half-orc prostitute engaged in shady dealings...

I can start a new thread if I'm hitting on something new and there's likely to be a lot of brainstorming.

Q85:  Ways to increase full-round attack archery damage from ranges greater than 30ft without using spellcasting (so feats and PrCs)? (I know about Targeteer from DM#310 and Knowledge Devotion, is there something else?)
[Spoiler]
His old DM was on crack. He could take levels in freaking Dread Necromancer if he wanted to and no rule in the universe would keep him from doing so.
Rule 0?
Which, I guess, would be 'no rule,' since none = 0.
What's funny is he always brings up Rule 0. I actually had to ask him what that was, and without blinking an eye he gave me the most detailed explanation I'd ever heard for a rule. It was like he was in a trance when he spoke. Looking it up, it just said "The unspoken DM gets final say/veto anything he wants rule."
You're such a kind man, for taking in abused unfortunates and rehabilitating them.

Dead Eye, which requires you to be at least 14th level, allows you to add your Dex on top of everything else.
I reject your reality, and substitute my own.

Dead Eye, assuming you mean the Dragon Compendium feat, received Errata to make the BAB prereq +1 instead of +14.

Q 86 If I needed a lot of characters (6) built in a week, and needed the users of this site's help, what board would I go to ask it?

Q 87 Is there a 3.5 update to the BoVD Corrupted Creature template?

I guess Min/Max fits the bill...

Wait... we're on it already  :P

Q 87 Is there a 3.5 update to the BoVD Corrupted Creature template?

It's in the Expedition to Demonweb Pits.

Q88 How the feat Augment Healing (Complete Divine) interacts with Vigor spells? All the fast healing is increased, or the extra healing only comes into play at the time of casting?

the "simple concept, simple build" thread?

for making your own thread, I'd say Deliberations.

[spoiler]
If you stop ignoring 289 pages telling what the intent is to stretch "more power" in your own god complexion of your interpretation trumps all to cover ability adjustments from aging then I will ignore a quarter page of rules that exist within a sidebar.
I think in this case the grammar is less important than whether the Str and Dex bonus provided to your created undead scales.
