    Arcane Implement Mastery question

    It'll be all of the rolls at my table...but I'm not sure what the official ruling will be on that one. Heck, I'd even give the bonus to any secondary or tertiary attacks....basically all of the attack rolls for a single use of a single power. From the quoted bit of text (assuming that's the...

    My First Take

    Every couple of levels (starting at 6th?) the sorcerer could forget a spell that they felt had become obsolete and replace it with another spell of the same or lesser level. It's really completely different from the 4th edition system in virtually every way but it DID involve forgetting...

    My First Take

    You can bet that 27th level characters will absolutely be getting some use out of their at will abilities.....unless your group is one of those that likes to rest after every fight (and the DM allows that).

    My First Take

    I hear where you are coming from. I think the main reason that the "forgetting" system is in place is to keep people from just using encounter and daily powers constantly at higher levels. I suspect that a perfectly serviceable house rule would be to allow PCs to remember their old powers but...

    KotS_Zombies question for other DMs_Possible Spolier

    Grabbed = Restrained. Check the condition rules in the DMs rules for details on Restrained.

    D&D 4E 4E combat illustrated

    Ouch! Thanks for pointing that out. Major kick to the nuts of the fighter from my perspective. I'm back to wondering if the change to Combat Superiority (compared to the DDXP pregen) was intentional.

    D&D 4E 4E combat illustrated

    First of all...great job Estar, very cool that you took the time to do this. Couple of things... Was the fighter just not marking because he was already so beat up? Also, (the way I read it) the fighter's Combat Challenge ability lets him attack someone that is adjacent to him that either...

    Standing up from prone...?

    Thanks for the info Mort. I'm glad they kept it a move action, but I figured it might have shifted.

    Standing up from prone...?

    Thanks for the link...as far as I can tell all it talks about is opportunity attacks though. I'm curious about what kind of action is requires. I guess I'll just use move action until the real rules come out.

    Standing up from prone...?

    Minor or Move action what do you think? In 3e it's a move action of course...but so is drawing your weapon. In 4e we know that drawing a weapon is only a minor action...could standing up be one as well? Perhaps the information is out there...but i sure can't find it.

    Fighter KOTS pregen missing ability?

    JT is correct, the Combat Challenge is also different (thanks for pointing that out). Hmm. I wonder if that's a build difference or something else. I guess I (we) will just have to wait and see. Thanks for the replies.

    Fighter KOTS pregen missing ability?

    The KotS fighter pregen has... The DDXP fighter pregen had... Do we have any idea if this is a change to the fighter or if its another "space consideration" issue?

    So - free trial? When?

    I'm pretty sure that the character generator and tabletop app are still being developed. Indications are that it will be a pay service for a while before they go live. As for when the free period begins, it starts with the release of 4e...so another couple of weeks...

    Excerpt: You and Your Magic Items

    Well, I would certainly debate your proclamation that it makes the game worse for the majority of gamers (the majority of gamers won't have someone with the arcana skill in their group?). As for reducing the ability to run game without certain class types...the suggestion would still be right...

    Excerpt: You and Your Magic Items

    Of course, inserting "You DM may require [additional requirements]" every few paragraphs is just as redundant...and they are doing that anyway. I think I see what Aria is saying here....it would be nice if the default was more middle of the road with suggestions for both more and less...

    Converting 3.xE adventures....

    Well I'm happy to hear that people don't really share my concerns. Hopefully they are unfounded. I hadn't considered Red Hand of Doom ...I agree that it would probably convert over very well. I'm more focused on the Pathfinder adventures. Unfortunately the Paizo community is umm...less...

    Converting 3.xE adventures....

    So, it's a little early to get into any specifics involving conversions (we don't have the rules after all) but....how viable does the community think this practice is going to be? The concern that I have is that in 3e the most common fight was the pcs against a single opponent. While this...

    Excerpt: Economies [merged]

    Ok, that's interesting. I wonder why that doesn't read "30 [price] gp gems". Are astral diamonds some new special 4e component or something that has somehow snuck past me? Either way, thanks for the info.

    Excerpt: Economies [merged]

    Maybe this has been discussed but I didn't see it... This is from the 25th level loot chart. Anyone have any idea what the "AD" refers to?
