I am of the opinion that the base weight of throwing axes should be altered to 0.2lbs per axe, if not 0.1lbs. They are, mechanically, the near-equivalent of darts in terms of strength. Darts are 1d4, throwing axes are 1d6. Throwing axes weigh ten times more than darts. +1d4 damage darts are readily available for a total of 2d4 damage. The only enchanted throwing axes I've seen come with partial weight reduction and -1 damage. MW, FW, etc is applicable on throwing axes - as is the case with darts. I don't think a buff to the crit multiplier or range is even enough to warrant their use. The weight is ridiculous.

These are a few monk stances intended for regular monks.

The Mourner's Melancholy
+10% concealment; medium duration

Teachings of the Flagellator
+2/- DR vs slashing; medium duration

A Glimpse...
+See invisibility/ultravision for 2 rounds; considerable cooldown

Transient Clarity
+Immune to mind-affecting effects for 1 round; considerable cooldown

The Wayward Traveller's Gait
+5% Movement Speed, +2 vs poison, +2 vs disease, +1 fortitude; relatively long-lasting.

The Art of Vanishing
+Invisibility for 1 round, -2 AB/AC for 5 rounds; considerable cooldown
 

Don't know if this is an undocumented change or a bug.
Ice Burst description says 1d4cold+1bludgeoning damage/level. The actual damage is only cold, and for some reason the spell also prompts a fortitude check on top of the reflex one.
 

Totally worms. Who wouldn't want a scaled-down version of the Purple Worm model as their summon?
Alternatively, a larval theme as a sub-aberration theme. Use those psionic blasters from the hardcore prelude and the worms.

I'm down for this. Create an IRC channel or something.

Agent Rourke's back in play, although my playing times are somewhat constricted.

The communication spheres created with Whispering Wind when possessing Nghelion's Sphere register and relay OOC commands. For an instance, if the "/e nods" command is made in the proximity of a sphere, it is relayed.

[Browbeater]

Perk bonus: +5 Intimidate, +3 Persuade, +2 Will, +4 vs Fear, Subordinate Player Tool

You can bully bandits into submission for a period of time determined by your intimidate score. The amount of bandits you can have bullied into service is dependent on your charisma. Some bandits, e.g Bandit Veterans, require either more charisma or habitual payment. In practice, this would be something akin to Animal Empathy.

I'm not sure you realize how EXTREMELY BENEFICIAL the ability to run in stealth/detect mode would be. Rogues might not have the ability to indefinitely procure camo/OWTL for themselves, sure, but the potions aren't that rare. I could sympathize with the suggestion of a level 8 perk that gives +25% speed in stealth/detect mode, but to just have the penalties of stealth/detect mode negated in their entirety on top of the amazing perks they get? I wouldn't want that, given how strong rogues already are.

[Goat Skull]

Goat Skull
"This is a skull of the now-extinct goat race. A relic of the surface wildlife, it is highly sought by alchemists and druids alike."

Properties: Alchemical reagent / +1 Animal Theme summoning reagent

no one knows what it's like
to be the bad goat
to be the sad goat
behind blue eyes...

I haven't experienced any issues with this quest. A ''hard'' flag might be warranted, but it's well-suited as a level 6 quest and the loot is potentially excellent. It simply doesn't cater to everyone's needs.
