This is the rule I've been using for zombine rotter minions. Since they are so much worse than other minions, a save vs death makes them feel like zombies should.

Are you running the traps as seperate, complete encounters? If so, they aren't worth the experience award. Traps work best as part of an encounter - like an extra monster. But also, consider the amount of time the players are spending on these 'encounters' - if the traps and skill challenges...

Actually, as Hypersmurf points out, it's not. Once you understand how it works, it's actually very hard to describe it in as few words as the rulebook does, without seeming even more clunky and open to misinterpretation. Believe me, I've tried. Here's a restatement of the rules for when you can...

Here's probably the simplest way to calculate the damage: Hit Chance + Hit Chance ^2 + Hit Chance ^3 + Hit Chance ^4 + Hit Chance ^5 (Hit chance as a percentage, a fraction of 1) Yes, the total can exceed 1. Multiply that by the damage for a single attack.

He's aware of that. He's pointed out two stats where they don't add up correctly. Actually all the Vampire Spawn bonuses seems to be one point too high.

My earlier answer was obviously wrong - I should have read the Bulette description. But after thinking about this, i think the fighter may well be able to attack. I'm not sure though. Here's waht I'm thinking: The fighter gets its Immediate attack "whenever a marked enemy that is adjacent to...

The attack granted by combat challenge is not an OA. However, that might be irrelevant: The fighter- indeed, anyone - can make an OA attack whenever an enemy leaves an adjacent square. So the fighter gets an OA. If that hits, the bulette stops moving due to the Fighter's Combat Superiority, and...

It may be hard to believe, but I wasn't using 'threadcrapping' as a perjorative. I apologise to the original poster if it came across as rude, and to anyone else who was offended. I was just stating that discussion about whether the entire thread itself was valid within the thread was a...

Alternatively, so you don;t have to change the way you play, do the following: Youy get the equivalent of one Extended Rest at the end of each week, for free. In addition, once per week, you can take a 6 hour Rest & Recuperate action to get the same benefit. You can't gain this benefit through...

Haha, thanks.

who is francis the badger?

Actually, that's not true. The abilities of Combat Challenge (attack a target who shifts, or attack a target who attacks someone else) only work on a market target. The ability of Combat Superiority (end a target's movement with an OA) can be used whether the target is marked or not.

Yes. No. Combat Challenge does not grant OAs. It grants a special Immediate action, which you can use in only two situations: when an adjacent marked enemy shifts or attacks someone other than you. So, if the kobold ran up alongside you as described, you'd get an OA. If the kobold then stopped...

They don't contradict each other, becuase they are for different things. The first is for whether you can see someone - and so use powers which require line of sight. The second is for whether the target has cover when you attack them. A target can have cover, and still be seen - so no...

It's best to think of the Divine Challenge as a mark, which has extra benefits. This exactly the same as the fighter's mark: it is a mark, with the additional benefit of allowing the fighter to get an extra attack under cirtain circumstances, for instance. So, if the Paladin marks an enemy, the...
