If you read the drow racial class in Drow of the Underdark on page 221, you will understand what I mean. It speaks of spell resistance increasing based on the class level and if you look at the chart on the left you will see it display two types of levels, racial level and class le...
and for their clever thinking to get out of it, I noted that they'll level up a session earlier than my chart says. This particular encounter was prompted by one player's backstory, but then the very next session, they dove into an equally in-depth adventure...
He made his elf well over 200 years old and claims that his character has read a massive amount of books (pretty much reading since his elf character could read and hasn't stopped) and that's all his character apparently has ever done. That's cool and I can skirt around ...
So below, I added an experience chart that you can use for leveling your characters up. When someone does gain enough experience, you will write the level number under the description section. Yes, it will have to be manually entered into the character sheet. It is the player’s responsibil...

With these assumptions, here is the chart for each level: So, in tier one, the +1 to damage on average is preferable, but it will become increasingly worse afterwards, as the damage per hit for the characters keeps improving, while the to-hit chance is stuck in...
This ring has no combat usefulness whatsoever beyond very low level, as using a standard action to cast CLW is not going to be an optimal action for a level 8 character. Personally? I'd allow it, at the 3600g quoted by Alice. It's an upfront cost that only saves...
