If I remember correctly, bonuses from the same source do not stack, so having several attacks would only increase the chace to get the bonus, but not allow it to be more than +1. (sorry, don't have my books with me to quote a source)

What about the dragonmark of Making ? I have a player with a Cannith artificer converted from 3.5, thanks in advance for him ... ^_^

Note that the Monk can target many defenses, and have many weapon attacks versus NADs (including at will attacks), meaning that they have a good precision with such attacks. Yes, I'm aware that attacks marked as 'implement' do not get the proficiency bonus, but not all attacks versus NADs are...

It would be better, but the feat would still be one of the best, and stricly better than some others like Nimble Blade (already one of the best feats for rogues)

I also "fixed" twin strike by forcing it to target two different creatures (mirroring dual strike that must target one creature with both attacks), and for Careful/Sure Strike, I modified those powers to make a critical strike on a roll of 19-20. This is still (slightly) less average damage...

In my campaign, one of my PCs is an artificer and he doesn't want to use a crossbow nor bow, he prefer to take shield prof. and use a throw wepon. For him, the Trantyr is the best weapon available.

Too bad there are only the first 3 levels, but the class seems good. But we need the definition of the "summoning" keyword, as currently the only summoning power (a daily of course) is incomplete without it : - nothing about ending the power : no sustain action, no time limit - the invocation...

You can craft for 20gp, but don't forget that buying something from a shop cost 10% to 40% more than the base price.

I use the following house rules for both Twin Strike and Careful Strike : Careful Strike : add critical on 19-20 for this attack Twin Strike : Target : one or two creature, one attack *per target* This mirror the new fighter at will dual strike where you must use both attacks against...

Like they did with the artificer, WotC will preview the barbarian class in Dragon 367 : http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/drtoc/367 Fans of the wilderness-enhanced warrior, rejoice !

Il already extend the radius of bright light, up to the base radius or 5 squares. So a torch is 5 bright + 5 shadowy for normal vision. For someone with low-light vision, it is the same as 10 bright. With this rule, low-light vision do not allow a character to see more further that the others...

Minautors and bugbears do *not* get to use 2H weapons with one hand, theyr get to use *larger* weapons, this is not the same thing. A minotaur can use a large warhammer with only one hand, for 1d12 base damage, not 2d6

There's an article on WoTC website with lots of new rituals : http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/drfe/200808011a

Youn can also use the static passive perception versus DC system, but give a malus to perception because of distance (maybe -1 or -2 for each square) : that way if your high perception PC is behind its friends (bow ranger with high wisdom ?), he could still find the trap automatically, but maybe...

Resist weapon exists => Resist All include weapon damage
