There isn't exactly anything really new, but the emphasis here was on the 3.5e rules.

 

Then I remembered that I don't really know the 3.5e rules that well.

 

From the class rebalancing, I remembering the monk being able to use the quarterstaff and having an improved Flurry of Blows; the bard being able to cast in light armor and having 6skills/lvl; the ranger being able to choose whether to morph into Drizzt or Legolas, having 6skills/lvl and 8hp/lvl.

 

Is there much rebalancing in the other more classes? Anything significant?

 

Also, does anyone know if incantations on the Eldritch Blast for the Warlord are free actions, or whether any modifications to the blast require wasting more time?

The major aspects of the rebalancing of the classes in DnD 3.5 was to make some classes less top heavy. Meaning their abilities are more spread out than having them given the best abilities at the first few flevels. Barbarian and Paladin also got the refit done to them.

 

There are not any significant major changes from 3.0 to 3.5 but there are a lot of minor changes that do add up. My suggestion is to read the SRD and take a good look these changes yourself. I can give you a link if you cannot find it on the Wizard's site.

 

Personally I like Arcana Evolve more than 3.5, but that is just me.

There are some, I'm a D&D rpg-er, should i post the changes?

Or does someone have a link?

(if i don't must, then i don't work extra )

Barbarian got some heavy changes too.

SP: To what extent will horses be integrated into the game? Essential part of a class and gameplay ala paladin's warhorse (actually usable in battle), or only there for travelling and carrying all the loot?

 

Ferret Baudoin: Unfortunately this is something we really can

LOL , do that Hades (w00t)

(Don't have to work wohoo! Can get extra time for D&D online )

Well, I just like 3.5 because they've improved my 3 favorite classes for the better. Monks with quarterstaves!!!

 

EDIT: Q: Is applying an eldritch essence / eldritch blast a free action?

 

A: Modifying your eldritch blast with a blast shape or eldritch essence is so free, you can do it at no cost at all. It's like the decision of how much you want to Power Attack for. I wouldn't even dignify it by calling it a free action.

 

Excellent.

Here is the DnD 3.5 SRD: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=d20/article/srd35

Here is the d20 Mordern SRD for those curious: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=d20/article/msrd

Il like the Forgotten Realms world, sad they didn't made that the MMORPG.

Hmm....

"

:D

Maybe Obsidian & Bioware together could do a Forgotten Realms MMORPG?

:D (w00t)

No bloodly MMORPGs. All MMORPGs suck by their very nature of being a MMORPG. I have yet played a MMORPG that I like.

Well if ya don't like them, don't play them ,

others do,

just try D&D online when its released, no changes to D20 system, nearly nothing to fight and less to classes, they really wanna get the 'p&p feeling' in it. (w00t)

No.

 

I refuse to pay a monthly fee for a game I already paid for. That is why NWN 2 will be better than any lame assed MMORPG. You can get all the online niceness of a MMMORPG with out the damn monthly fees. Also you get a single player game incase you don't want to deal with any jerks online. Last I checked there is no SP options in DnD Online.

Outside of the the stupid new class, and the crappy new DR rules; the interview is kewl. :cool:

I am not a fan of the Warlock but I do like the new DR rules.

I think the Warlock is cool... "

Yeah, you would.

Yeah, you would.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Guess that's because I don't really care if the game stays traditional.

No.

no, there arent but you can get real p&p -er people to have a group with, and speak as char-s and act like your own char-s, so it is the best fun ever :D

I perfer traditional gaming where it comes to Dungeons and Dragons. Hell, it is a game that is nearly as old as I am. Also some of the newer base classes found in those other boosk are poorly designed and not at all balanced.

If I want to play with people I play real PnP. I don't need a MMORPG for that. I play computer games because I want to be alone.

Actually, I'm looking forward to the new Warlock class. The various incantations sound like they could be lots of fun. Different shapes for the blast depending on the situation, and different enhancements depending on the enemies' weaknesses (saves).

 

Would be somewhat similar to the shifter (which I loved going through SoU and HotU with), seeing how long I could go without resting.

Sounds like a very versatile mage. Which is why I like the idea, reminds me of FFs Red Mage, except without the sword.

 

EDIT : FFXIs Red Mage anyways. Being able to do a large variety of work allows them to survive, despite the fact that they aren't extremely skilled in any one field.

Warlock isnt a very good class in PnP, it does some things ok but its not really good for anything.

 

 

and MMO's ...my idea of roleplaying isnt exactly

I find that paying to play online lame. You already spent good money on the damned game why pay more. Stupid.

Yes me too, but what if ya don't have any other RPG-ers in :

same street?

same block?

same city?

or if you don't /they don't have time to play much, or you're moved or have to work elsewhere on planet, or else... :

Then you have MMORPG-s :D

I can play pnp on weekends with 3-6 friends of mine

 

(D&D Forg.Realms+Dragonlance+ourown+StarWars,Vampire,

7 seas,wanna try now battletech)

 

now ya understand? I'm not fan of MMORPG-s ,I'm one of p&p RPG-s with connection problems to others if not weekend

Then you play NWN, and soon NWN2. MMORPGs cannot compete in the realm of 'roleplaying'.
