In celebration of the Dec 2 release date for Hordes of the Underdark, head over to RPG Vault and drool over 3 new Epic level feats, including Improved Ki Strike and Overwhelming Critical, and then visit your favorite fan site to find details on the newest spell, Death Armor.

Hooray: HotU before Christmas!
And i thought you will change date to spring...
When will the european version come? or will both versions come simultaneously, like SoU?
I can't wait building up a shifter, or perhaps a red dragon disciple...? |

fighters are really gonna have a ball tanking everything thats not immune to crits. I hope the will/reflex saves are appropiate against the higher level creatures spellabilites and magic or fighters will basically rule.
On second thought whats good for the goose is good for the gander, hope creatures and npcs have access to overwhelming crits and all the other feats as well.

A lot of creatures in Hordes _are_ immune to criticals heh. So it's still not a cakewalk.

In Pnp D&D doesnt overwhelming critical increase the multiplyer instead of adding extra damage on criticals? Like from x3 to x4? (Or from x4 to x5 on a scythe?) |

I just checked them out and became a bit disappointed. I noted "Epic Smite" which requires "Smite Evil". Does this mean that the Pali's have yet another advantage against us evil-doers? Or does it work for "Smite Good" as well?
Also, still no Unholy Avenger for the Anti-Paladin? Please? Pretty please? Awww... come on guys, don't make me beg for it!!!
Seriously though, there definitely needs to be more stuff out there for the Anti-Paladin / Evil PC's. The Good aligned characters already have some serious advantages in comparison. Time to even it up!Edited By VR_Darkhand on 11/26/03 03:36 |
