    Multiclassing Barbarian

    Hi folks, one of my players came up with the idea of playing a fighter who will be impressed by the furiosity of barbarians. Thus she'd like to start with a fighter and later multiclass with a barbarian. Sadly there are non multiclass feats for the barbarian yet - am I right? So what to do...

    Combat is different

    Hi folks, I am pretty sure that my topic has been discussed in former times, so bevor you response to my post, you might be also give me just a link. To be honest there are two issues on my mind which I think are somehow related so I do not want to start another thread. First I want to call...

    [Eberron] Dragonmarked scion and pride

    Hi folks, I hope the thread is placed well in here. Since I will run an Eberron campaign in the new year I thought about the Eberron-specific-elements. After a short while I came about the dragonmarked houses and just thought of the following situation: Guess we have a memeber of a...

    Hi folks, in the back of of the book is the spell draconic polymorph listed with the short description: As polymorph, but improved. It is a 5th level Sorcere / Wizard spell from the transmutation school. But in the book, it is nowhere to be found. I know, that they changed somehow the...

    Recharging Encounter Power with Feat

    Hi folks, I think about improving an encounter power with a feat. Back in the 3.x Edition there have been feats like: "Use your spell like ability x more times per day." Now how would it feel to make a feat: "You can recharge encounter power X on a 6 (5,4, etc...) at the beginning on your...

    Shadow Conjuration and forbidden school

    Hi folks, I think about the intention of one of my fellow players. To make it short: If a wizards specialises / focuses (CM) in the illusion subschool and his forbidden schools are evocation and conjuration (and a 3rd one, yes). Would he be allowed to use shadow conjuration or shadow...

    [Eberron] Assassin from House Phiarlan / Thuranni

    Hi folks, I think about two builds for the Rogue. Especially an elven rogue educated by the finest assassins avaible from the two dragonmarked houses. The one I will present later is melee assassin but now: Ranged Assassin: Prerequisites Elf, member of the the Phiarlan or Thuranni House...

    Scales of War

    Hi folks, can someone tell me if this Adventure Path (AP) is worth beginning it? I must confess that I have no experience with any AP at all. But this time I see it as a great deal of time which I can spare. Flipping through the first adventure Rescue at Rivenoar I thought: "Not another...

    [Eberron] Minor changes

    Hi folks, I just think about some minor changes for the Eberron Campaign Setting. I cannot wait until june 2009 so I build some stuff on my own. ;) First. I think the ranger with his two-weapon-fighting powers makes a good basis for a elven fighter from valenar. Reknown for their double...

    [Eberron] Eladrin als Aerenalelfs

    Hi folks, if I got this right the distinction between elfs and eladrin results from the fact that some people see the elfs as nature bond rangers (archetyp) while the see in them the long living wizards of ancient might (archetyp). So the Eladrin have a high affinity to magic (+2 to INT, +2...

    Skeleton and mark

    Hi folks, can someone explain to me what the mark ability of a skeleton does? Skeleton: MM p. 234 First of all I thought it has the same properties as the ability from the fighter. But then I thought that this is called combat challenge. And that the paladin can also mark and there is some...

    Paladin and Implements (Holy Symbol)

    Hi folks, I just wonder about the Paladin's Holy Symbol Implment. I agree that it makes some sense that a rightous warrior can call the power of his god through his holy symbol hanging around his neck.... ....so much for the flavoer text. But why are there so few powers which allow an...

    Preview: Brutal Ability

    Hi folks, I just wonder about the new Execution Axe from here: Preview Or to be more specicif, about the brutal property which says: I hope I get my mathematics right this time. A d12 has an expectation value of E = 6.5 If I take now the brutal property into account this value rises to E =...

    DM's Toolbox: Template

    Hi folks, just to make sure that I get this right: I want to use the Death Master Template (DMG p187) on a Hobgoblin Warcaster (MM p. 140). Do I get it right that I add 8 times 3 plus 14 = 38 HPs ? Which makes a total of 84 HPs? And that for a 3rd Level Elite Monster? Which means it is worth...

    Spear Gautnlet Trap

    Hi folks, I just wonder if I get this right. In the description of the trap is written: So lets say a character ends its move in a trigger square. Does this mean he is attacked three times? First when he enters the square. Second when it is the traps turn. Third when he starts his new turn in...

    Rule of Thump for Short Rests

    Hi folks, I think about the use of encounter powers after a battle. I did unterstand that it is possible for the cleric to support everybody's use of healing surges with his Healing Word Encounter Power. But on the other hand I think one must keep track of the number of uses. Because for every...

    Warforged Resolve pretty powerfull?

    Hello folks, I just wonder about the warforged's racial encounter power warforged resolve. It says that the character gains 3 + half level HPs if he is bloodied. That means if the warforged leaves the encounter while bloodied he can heal himself up to half his HPs (plus 1 to 3 depending where...

    Source: Dragon 364 The Improved Warforged Resolve feat says, that you gain additional 5 temporary HPs. The interessting case is the bloodied one. So if the warforged is bloodied and uses his warforged resolve with that feat. Does that mean he gets... a) 3 + half level + 5 (feat) temporary HPs...
