3e game...? replied on: 5/23/2003 8:44:42 PM There are only three saves in 3E: Fort, Will, and Reflex. They replace, completely, all previous versions of saving throws, making it MUCH simpler and easier. Now, instead of having to think "does this require a save vs DM?" You can just say "Fort save." "Does this require a save vs. Spell?" "Will save if mind-affecting, Fort if attacking the body, Reflex if you can dodge it (like a fireball)." All special attacks and spells list what save they use, and they specifically state when SR (spell resistance, the replacement for MR%) applies, making that a LOT easier to play. AC in 3E increases, and all penalties are penalties (reducing your score). You ALWAYS want to roll high, and you ALWAYS want bonuses. That's the basic concept. There are a couple more complicated things, like stacking bonuses, but, even that's not so hard once you know what it means.
