I am using a dynamic war ax on my paladin and it rocks big time. Can't hit that guy over there? Switch it to a halberd. Can't hit the orcs a square behind the portcullis? Make it a longspear (to poke through). Can't hit that guy, way way over there? Hand ax. Executioner's ax can be useful even...

Thanks for your thoughts! something to think about. What we need are more consistent players to fill the party gaps. One of the rogues rarely shows up these days for personal reasons, though we NPC him for continuity. The warlord is coming back next week I think. He is sorely missed. He's...

Hello forum! Well well, it's been a while. I wanted to ask this of you, specifically what you thought of the relative advantages / tradeoffs of switching/retraining/rerolling my character to a Hybrid Paladin/melee TWF Ranger from a Str Paladin, now that Divine Power is out. Specifically, does...

q) what logical sense does it make to have no prereqs AT ALL to regain Plate prof, but if I wanted to take those feats piecemeal I'd have to pump up my CON? Why not just wave away the prereqs for armor + shield feats which you could take all at once if you simply had a spare hybrid talent to...

Once per tier and no Paragon Hybrid whatsoever gets my vote. It would be great to be able to swap-out Chain, Scale, and Plate, for Paladin Armor Prof and Plate Spec by Epic, while having two weapon style (heroic Hybrid Talent) and say, Lay on Hands and a Paragon path for paragon levels. I'm...

So, teach them. :) (devilish smile)

GRoucho...that's the name of my next Toon!! hehe, I remember that from a woody allen movie (I'm a huge fan). That was a funny story about being stuck out of combat though. It really does suck for non wizards in other editions though...that's why I play one. Honestly the other classes are dull...

I have a follow up rules question for the board : How would feather fall modify Overland Flight? Let's say I have feather fall effect (some magic boots or something that bestows that), on a regular non-flying character...can I walk off the ledge and slowly drift down, firing arrows at stuff...

Hey, if we take the dice rolling out of Dnd, is it still Dnd? Why not remove d20s too? You could have a list of to hit values like 20 - 18 - 14 - 8 - 4 and make it real cheeze munchkin "nobody can die cuz they'll cry" type gaming. Point buy is the most min-maxiest thing ever. If you roll really...

Actual flying with hovering and actions mid-air is what I'm hoping to achieve by Epic. I kind of DO like the hopping gargoyle + knockdown flavour of the early levels when your wings are fresh out of the cocoon and still weak. But by Epic I expect them to grow strong to do some serious fighting...

hmm, I like. More! pls Claus you are a god-send. now, to decide what feats I would have to give up to achieve this. Although, honestly spending two feats to be able to fly for 5 min 1/day is kinda rough, for Paragon level. Don't get me wrong, it's good, but still limiting. I'd much rather be...

That's very cool, both mechanics-wise and flavour-wise. I might ask (beg) my DM to let me take it. That said, there should be a follow-up feat that allows you to get even bigger wings (maybe str 19 minimum) and allows you flight (maybe a rest once every few rounds, depending on your con bonus...

I'd honestly like to know whether anyone has taken this PP given all the limitations. (e.g. can't do anything whilst "flying"). What's the point of using this. Better off just getting some flying boots and using the dragonborn breath feats. I have Hurl Breath which is great for targetting...

good tips, Obryn. What class do you play, if I may ask? I mostly like the choices offerered by a tactical combination of Twin Strike + Dynamic Weapons. e.g. one melee and one switched into hand-ax in case I need to use the 2nd strike to whack some guy in the back running away (like a little...

rpl nah, out-damaging rogues is not the point (or my goal, and never was). How can they perform max damage (min-maxing the overall party's efficiency rather than one element) without my help? They can't. My character concept is "smart + diplomacy, without effeminacy". Speak softly but carry a...
