PEACH Exchange

[Gotterdammerung]

Great idea O.P.

Here is my P.E.A.C.H.
http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=273431

It is also in my sig.

I am currently playing a home-brewed wind adaption of the Dragonfire adept/warlock style of casting. I am fleshing out an incomplete skill, and hope to have it complete b4 I actually level past what is written.

I don't frequent this sub-forum very often. So if you want me to P.E.A.C.H. something for you in exchange, then just send me a message with a link.

Looking for more opinions on my Soulless Template. I'll PEACH what I can here, need to go over the various things posted.

Ok I put in my 2 cents on your soulless template


Sidenote: really pleased at the amount of incarnum support I am finding on this sub-forum. I very much enjoy incarnum and it just wasn't properly supported by first party content. I wish the forum was a little more organized for ease of perusal.

If any one could be obliged to run my Bard through the ringer, I'd be more than happy to throw some PEACH's back.

Tanuki! I'll PEACH that when I get back from my weekend. I won't give you something to PEACH until then, however.

I had around my "Full to bursting" mailbox, so I am going to dump it here so I can delete the message that includes a quote of where I originally wrote it.

Well, if your problem is NOT (or not ONLY) with discerning game balance/playability in the work of others, here is something that may help. For ideas on discerning balance, look in the "Formerly Stickied Threads" thread of the homebrew forum, and look for the "How to Homebrew" and "Philosophy of Homebrewing"... plus read a lot of Homebrew threads and/or balance discussions in the other areas of the forum.

My general advice for giving PEACH:
Consider carefully whether to read other people's comments (if any) before critiquing. A completely fresh perspective can help, but so can considering the ideas of others.


Be specific as you can afford the time to be. List specific abilities at least, and maybe go through and quote each part you are commenting on, or even the specific phrases.

Being specific has two main parts to it, what you say, and where you direct it.

First part: For instance, try to avoid saying something is overpowered. Give a reason it is overpowered, and if necessary, a specific example from play that you make up (or from actual play-test data if you do that). Also, whenever you say something needs to be changed, it is EVEN BETTER to be specific about how it should be changed. For instance, a lot of times people say my work needs to be "clarified". Which is something I can't usually do (maybe short of adding a play example, but that adds a LOT of words). I write things as clearly as I know how the first time. Which brings me to a side-point: People also say I should "simplify" things. Sometimes this falls under "clarify" (see previous sentence), but sometimes it is just something I am flat-out not willing to do, except MAYBE as a separate version of the homebrew. The lesson for critiquers here is to be at peace with having your advice rejected.


The second part: Be specific about what part you are critiquing with each thing that you say by quoting the post with the work in it, then closing the quotation right after the first part you want to comment on, then hitting enter twice, and pasting in the FULL opening quotation (or just opening it without a reference in the forum code if you are feeling really lazy). Then copy the closing, blank line, and opening. Keep this in your copy buffer as much as possible so you can insert it where necessary before starting each of your individual comments. Use those blank lines to start each comment. Delete any parts that are at least a paragraph (or three sentences) long of the stuff you are quoting that aren't necessary for other people to understand your quotes. If you do this in the middle of a quote, replace the missing part with <SNIP> which is NOT a forum code, but just lets people know that you removed stuff.


Lastly, really good critique should be a several part dialogue. The original work and the initial critique will usually be the longest parts, but check back occasionally to see if anything was said about your critique.

I was wondering if it would be possible for me to PEACH others works in exchange for them giving me advice and suggestions on some of the ideas I have in the works or questions I have asked?
-------------------------------------

Ideas/Classes that I would like help on is suggestions on a rewrite on d20 material called Colors of Magic for 3.5 to even Pathfinder: http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=254519

Another is I need House Ruling Help involving the Planes and Resurrection based spells: http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showt...0#post15040530

Lastly, which would lead to PEACHing I wish to put together a place involving the Shadowcraft (of Drow of Underdark) and the Shadowcraft Mage called the Shadow Weaver: http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=279200

[NikitaDarkstar]

So I would like some feedback (PEACH?) on my 3.5 -> Pathfinder Warlock adaptation. Also this is my first homebrew attempt, so I'll do my best to PEACH back if I can, but some classes or ideas might just leave me all confused and possibly a tiny bit terrified.

Also this is not perfect yet. my main worry right now is the change to the Elemental Resistance, and if I should just go back to the "default" one and think up something else to fill that otherwise dead 16th level with.

sorry for the repost but can I please get these peached? I really enjoy making bloodlines and I would love for these to be looked at (sorry welknair for stealin' your thing )

While it may be Welknair's "thing", he generally welcomes people adding to the topic of bloodlines. However, he might also be someone you'd be good to have PEACH it, since you know, it is.

[inuyasha]

is it just me or do I never see him around anymore though? :p

[TheWombatOfDoom]

Its true. He got eaten by running a roleplaying server on minecraft. I still see him once in awhile, but not as often indeed. Message him, i'd recommend. I speak with him often enough, I'll mention you to him!

[inuyasha]

thanks wombat :) Im going to PM him now, and if you see him tell him about me ;D

[ArcanistSupreme]

Howdy folks! If anyone would care to take a gander at my Rod of Natural Wonderment [PF], I'd be much obliged.

I read through your bloodlines but I didn't feel I had anything to add. Most of them look perfectly in line with the recommendations for creating bloodlines given in the unearthed arcana. I didn't like the concept (non-race based) bloodlines just because bloodlines without blood does not compute. Sorry I couldn't be of help.

My peach is in my siggy but since I didn't actually help you out don't feel obligated.

[Gotterdammerung]

I'd be very happy if someone would take a look at these races.

I took a look at you races unbeliever536

I'd like to get some thoughts on my classes and stuff.

I'm currently reviewing a couple of the more recent links in this thread.

The concept ones were the idea that although they arent actually based off of specific creatures, they follow the same rules as bloodlines, and have similar mechanics. Basically, you are that bloodline, you never got it from a relative, its more of a knack or a talent, you are a natural born sniper or broot, or you have a natural talent for summoning creatures. Stuff like that ;D
