    Do you Expect to hit Epic tier?

    I played in an H-P-E campaign right to the end of E3. In the Scales of War game I'm running the players have just started the last scenario. I'm not sure that I'd run past the end of paragon if I started a new campaign though.

    I have Heroes of Shadows

    If so it'll be strange if the Cleric Class Compendium (*) doesn't errata the Str Cleric out of existence. The Con Warlock has had much more support than the Str Cleric ever has. * Need to add a word beginning with "P" to the end of this, for acronyms sake.

    I have Heroes of Shadows

    Thanks for the Vampire info! Q: What stats do Binder Warlocks need? Cha and Int?

    Rule of Three 4/4/11

    They've always been able to take any PPs they meet the prerequisites for, since the e-builds are all builds in the original Pre-Essential classes. Most of the Essentials Paragon Paths are restricted to the e-builds though.

    D&D 5E Sneak look at 5E !

    He's claiming he's seen the books including artwork. Those books won't exist until a few months before 5e is released. It doesn't help that a lot of the other stuff he's saying is obvious crap.

    D&D has been cancelled (speculation).

    If they cancelled it I would have expected a great Christmas Fire-O-Rama for all the design and development staff. Instead there were no Christmas firings this year.

    D&D 4E [4E Players, mainly] Ever thought of defecting to Pathfinder?

    Not to Pathfinder. I already played 3rd edition for years, until I was thouroughly sick of its problems, and nothing I've read about Pathfinder makes me think they've solved those problems. Additionally, the only Paizo adventure path I played (Age of Worms) didn't inspire me to additional...

    Sneak Attack--Help me stop my DM from banishing it!

    I GM a star pact warlock who uses Prime Shot almost every encounter. Both because he hates missing and he is quite willing to take an opportunity attack from a monster that's marked and threatened by the group's fighter.

    The biggest issue with the new Character Builder:

    I think the biggest issue is obvious when you start it up: it says "Version=0.1.115.0". This is an early beta, and they know it. And as an early beta, it's not too bad: it runs, you can make at least some characters with it, it doesn't crash too often. But as something that's supposed to be a...

    Heroes of the Forgotten Kingdoms

    Like everyone else, I'm curious to know what the new racial mods are. Also, the preview for the new Hunter Bow Ranger build gets an encounter power called Disruptive Shot. Can you tell me more about it? They've already described the new half-elf power you can take instead of dilletante in the...

    Cloud of Daggers and Enlarge Spell

    This, unfortunately. Cloud of Daggers doesn't have the blast or burst keyword in it's area, and Enlarge Spell increases the size of blasts and bursts.

    Gliese 581g - A Tidally Locked DnD World

    Apparently moons of close Jovians will be unstable over time: the paper I found was [astro-ph/0205035] Stability of Satellites Around Close-in Extrasolar Giant Planets It's only really a problem for habitable satellites of jovians around red dwarfs, a Jovian in Earth's orbit could still have...

    DDI September/October Update info

    They work fine as they are on Windows. Web tools could work on not just Macs, but Android and iPhone smartphones and tablets. Phones and tablets that lots of people could be bringing to their tables.

    DMs: Do you use the Inherent bonuses option?

    The same - I'm currently running using the standard rules, intend to use inherent bonuses if /when I run again.

    Player wants to be a Lich

    Title: Player wants to be a lich? Woah! Then I read the post and found out it was his PC. Yeah, the Arch-lich ED is there specifically for those players, I think. I'm just surprised we haven't seen the Emo-Vampire-Lord ED yet.
