Character Building

[ryryguy]

Ok, I added ability to base basic melee attack off any stat to the template. Otakkun, I fixed up your character to have Eldritch Strike based on Cha in your template.

:applause:

[Otakkun]

Thanks!

Ehm, where in Gods name do you find the encumbrance values?

[EvolutionKB]

Going off memory here, but I think it's just 10x your str for a normal load.

[Otakkun]

Thx, it was a pain to find the entry in the phb. Well, I must say this warlock is a being of its own, it looks nothing like what I first visualized.

Guess that is what happens when you build it over a few days instead of minutes

[CaBaNa]

Just wait until your warlocks personality starts coming out, all on it's own, it's creepy...

I don't suppose anyone's sufficiently wise in the ways of XML wizardry to write something that can translate a WotC Character Builder .dnd4e file into a LEB-format page? Getting the Wiki page right is a lot of work...

I know there are a few folks working on the parser and such; don't know how that is going. If there was a parser and if I wasn't starting to teach a new class in two days, I'd think about it.

[drothgery]

I went through all the class category pages on the Wiki and added a stub page that puts them in categories based on role, power source, and origin book. And made sure every character has their actual class as a category.

So now if you're looking for a controller PC for your party, you can look at the controller category page and drill down into that to get the characters. Now if I could figure out how to get it to drill down a level, and only pull approved characters, it'd be really useful...

Looks good!

I am not aware of a way to do "conjunctive" categories like that in MediaWiki.

Well, I finished up my Dwarf Swordmage build and sent it off to the judges for approval: http://www.enworld.org/wiki/index.php/LEB:PC:Gruff_One-Eye_(Tinwe)

Anyone with some spare time mind taking a look and seeing if there's anything glaringly wrong in the background? I don't have the 4e Eberron player's guide, so I'm running on memory from 3.5.

[hornedturtle]

well first that link doesn't go to the right page. other than that i can't see anything but i missed a lot on my own.

[Velmont]

Copy/paste the URL. The link miss the last ), that's why it doesn't work. You need to add the ) to the link or simply copy the whole URL and paste it in your address bar.

I've looked over Gruff Tinwe, a couple things to change, but not too much. Should be approved by me today if you get it updated.

Updated. I posted my replies to each of your comments, but the gist is
1) no way for me to set gender- the tag doesn't appear in the edit pane
2) ac is correct, but includes Swordmage Warding on the assumption that Gruff always has a blade in hand. I'll take it out.
3) no way to set languages in the summary- tag doesn't appear in edit pane

The Gender tag is there, and it says male, so someone did it.

Language tag defaults to Common if no entry is added; I added one for you.

In general (for everyone), make sure to read the documentation on the sample character and the template: The template provides a list of all the tags. I'll make this more clear on the sample character and creation pages.

Sent you a PM, I've corrected the gender. the tag was missing, I pulled it from another wiki sheet.

[Tinwe]

I changed Armor Prof: Chain to AP:Hide, and adjusted all the related fields (defense, weight, equipment, treasure, summary)

[renau1g]

Excellent. Approved. That's a pretty nice AC, my lvl 5 SM in RL only has 22...
