    Radiant Avenger/Student of Caiphon advice

    Let's think about this: -Avenger Daggermaster --1d4 weapon, 18-20 Crit. -Avenger SoC --1d12 High Crit Radiant Weapon, 18-20 Crit. Yup...totally equal. --- Of course, you can actually USE the Powers from Daggermaster, unlike SoC. In addition, Daggermaster lets you dump Charisma. Honestly...

    Rogue vs Avenger

    The Avenger is all about "I get you away from your buddies so we can cuddle". Pursuing: I hit you, and teleport you x squares to the middle of nowhere. I then teleport next to you for a great big hug. Isolating: I hit you, and place a zone around you that discourages your buddies from getting...

    Study: Gaming linked to depression.

    35? Overweight? Depressed? LoL. ;)

    Avenger Experience?

    Hmm...at first I thought your high INT would keep you from getting hit. However, a light shield negates the Avengers AC bonus, so you could wear Cloth Armor and a Light Shield for an AC of 16 (at level 1). Drop the shield and your ac goes to 18. Pick up Hide and your AC goes to 21. You could...

    Ruthless Ruffian, Anyone ?

    I like the IDEA of the "In your Face" brute Rogue that thematically differs from the dagger wielding skirmisher... ...but I have a hard time wrapping my head around what sort of build you would need for this type of PC. Dex > Cha > Str? -Cha affects more "RR Only" powers, but overall lacks...

    Basic Melee Attacks

    Excellent response, Tony Vargas. That pretty much sums it up.

    Stealth Removal - House Rules (and fun)

    So far I'm digging the adjustments. So far our group is CONSTANTLY trying to play to our strengths...and very rarely is it prudent (especially with the deadly encounters in KotSF) to "play against role". In fact, I wish some things (particularly the Infernal Warlock nuances) were a bit more...

    Another Take on the Dhampir

    So far, they seem very Tiefling in flavor and feel. To keep balance, make them comparably powered to Tieflings. Lower speed to 6. Put Necrotic Resistance at 5 + 1/2 Level Keep Bloodlust as is. I personally think Dhampir Regeneration is overpowered. No Racial power should last an entire...

    Fear Duration?

    I wouldn't swap out the power just yet. It is DECEPTIVELY powerful. The most effective way to instantly cripple an enemy is to either kill him immediately or prevent him from taking meaningful action. Cause Fear is an Encounter Power that takes a critter out of combat for one round, and...

    Streetwise skill not needed

    It gives Warlock's a reason to participate in skill rolls. Seriously. The Rogue will likely have all their Dex skills trained, the Wizard will have all the Int skills trained, and the Paladin will likely have Diplomacy trained. That leaves Streetwise and Bluff for a Cha focused Warlock.

    D&D 4E Push the Envelope: Use 4e to make the broadest range of archetypes!

    I'm trying to come up with a Blackguard through combining Warlock with Warlord or Paladin...but the MAD keeps it from being optimal. I'll post something once I figure it out.

    Obvious best race/class combos.

    You also have to consider other facets like Racial Feats and Powers. i.e. The Infernal Tiefling Warlock may not get a bonus to Con, but he has a Racial Feat that gives him +1 to Hit/Dmg with Fire/Fear powers (which are staples of the Infernal Pact).

    D&D 4E 4e -- Is The World Made Of Cheese?

    I would classify it as Jack Bauer choking Chuck Norris with a garotte made of win while fighting in a pool of pure awesome. Just my opinion.

    Neat Little Gamist Rulesy Things

    In general, I like how the game has become: I also like how complexity is added...yet the burden is place primarily on the player, and not the DM.

    Bloodied

    Yup, it does nothing except get my Tiefling all excited. Unfortunately, during the first few combats I kept thinking that "Bloodied = Demoralized" or something similar...and, as such, avoided Bloodied critters. Such is not the case! A Bloodied critter is JUST as dangerous as a full HP...

    Worst Race?

    No! I refuse to argue! We're heading deep into Silly Land! --- Was anyone else impressed with the Eladrin? I REALLY like their free Trained Skill and the nifty Encounter Teleport. Unfortunately, they do seem a bit "Type Cast".

    Worst Race?

    Oh, you're being sarcastic. Right. Umm...by "everyone", I'm talking about the 100+ people who voted Tiefling as the worst race mechanically, putting it just behind the Half-Elf. Instead of "everyone", I probably should have said, "...the same as all 100+ people who voted Tiefling as the...
