06-18-07, 09:48 PM :weep: can some one tell me how you would apply the ice beast template to creatures in LG (that you would summon with the conj ice beast spell)

the D10s from D8s can be wierd does it apply the same way, and does the slam add to the full attack?

It is all fully explained in the Conjure Ice Beast spell in Frostburn.

Check the resource there. (not open content so won't post it all here).

Note they are now constructs.

If you don't have the book then don't worry about it, as without the rules you cannot use them. (Need to be a frost mage in LG I am pretty sure to get access, unless its out in a mod somewhere)

06-18-07, 10:17 PM there is one mod out there and i have the ablity to take any spell from frost burn (the one i played it with was a cleric) and was thinking conj ice beast spells would be worth it or prehaps the shivering touch (3d6 dex for 1 round/lvl but it stacks so 2 or 3 touches makes it disabled as there is no save or SR) :D but then again conj V and IV look juicy as summoning pounceing, flanking, charging, ice beast, celestrial full attacking +5d6 of cold damage lions is fun :D and i have a brother that has a marshal cohort so they get tons of extra damage for flanking

that depends on the description in Frostburn, if it is similar to the dustform templated critters from sandstorm, just make a table and apply the stat changes stat by step, have a look at what i have done for the sandstorm critters:

http://www-stud.uni-essen.de/~sl1506/web-lg/lg-index.htm

the switch from d8s to d10s is just counting 11 HPs for any 2 HD instead of 9 for every 2 HD, remaining single HD give 5 HPs. remove any con bonus HP, etc.

only humanoids without a natural attack gain the slam attack, it is an additional attack that can be used instead of normal attack, i wouldn't count it as secondary attack.

06-18-07, 10:27 PM no it states that it gains a slam unless it already had a slam attack (such as an elemental) but a lion or a dog doesnt so it would gain one i just dk if it would add to full attack

06-21-07, 03:28 PM It would add to the full attack ..but it might also replace one of the normal attacks depending on what it lets them slam with (if it doesn't grow you an extra limb then it probably doesn't increase your attacks/round)
