That doesn’t sound prudent to me. You could end up with paper-dragons or impossible, godlike early game encounters. No, that's not what I'm saying. If you're following the main quest, you shouldn't necessarily know there is (or isn't) level scaling in all of the encounters.

Completely random; some level scaling, some not. Let the player explore and find out, rather than following some heuristic.

All right, well good luck to Ms. Garsten in her new endeavors then.

"If this design does not pan out, we are likely to revert to Pillars I Might/Resolve." Hmm.

It's not a new approach to use separate to hit/damage resistance parameters. PnP games have been doing it for decades and it works well. Try playing something other than archaic D&D for a change.

I don't know how practical it is to have enhanced ammo types, but how about enhanced camping supplies that provide an "unlimited" enhanced ammo stock? I.e. somewhat equivalent to special benefits from resting in specific locations, but applied to a consumable camping supply. You get a similar bonus on arrows, bolts, bullets, and so forth; it's something extra you purchased from a supplier for a special campaign need.

May 8th -- National Coconut Cream Pie day. Can it be a coincidence? I think not.

Got my tactical flashlight ready...

Wathef Uck, mysterious barbarian sidekick from the southern jungles. He's into some crazy stuff, man.

Trump to meet with game industry Thursday over gun violence This is what I like to term a "Circus Level Event", or CLE (pronounced "silly").

I love the shadows in that footage. It adds a lot more depth to the scene.

I'm old. I enjoy the deep heat neck & shoulder therapy in the showers... Well at least on the weekends.

I didn't think females existed in Dwarf species, I thought males mated with other males to carry on kin and such has been the message of the dwarves. I must say, this is a historically inaccurate rumor undoubtedly originating with the elves. The fact is Dwarves are hermaphrodites that lay jewel-shaped golden eggs and protect them by surrounding the nest with gold coins as a distraction.

Yes, this was also true of Hiravias. By the time he became available my party was more or less set, so I didn't include him until a later replay. When I did so, he immediately became one of my favorites.
