    Footwork Lure + Polearm Momentum = At-Will Knock Prone?

    This may not be what's intended (more on that later), but per RAW it looks like you could get an at-will ability to knock opponents prone as a level 1 Fighter. Here's how it breaks down: Now, at first glance it seems that obviously the intent was to have an at-will power that allows you to...

    Special Editions for... well, Editions

    Considering that WotC acknowledges they can't please all of the people all of the time, and that they know there are things they can't fit into a typical core rulebook, and that there are things they leave out intentionally to make the game accessible and easy for players new and old... I wonder...

    Pittsburgh / Allegheny, PA: Seeking Game

    I'm looking for the chance to play with a group in my area. I live on the western side of Pittsburgh. I would prefer to be a player initially, but would consider DMing. The only limitation on DMing would be that I couldn't host, as I have a small apartment. I'm likewise limited in terms of...

    D&D Setting Tolerances

    I just got done expressing why I feel like the average - or the vast majority - of D&D worlds don't "do it" for me, in another thread. I have tried to remain loyal to the game and give various editions a shot. It's the first RPG I was ever introduced to, back in the red box days. I'm not sure...

    The Sha'ir (In progress, initial powers to 2nd)

    Sha’ir Elemental Font The Sha’ir draws both beings and matter from the Elemental Chaos, and can produce a small amount of raw elemental material from the Elemental Chaos as a minor action once per encounter or every five minutes. He can produce flame up to the size of a campire, in an...

    The Star Pact Handicap

    Why is it that if you stick within your pact powers, a Fey Warlock gets powers that all derive their attack from Charisma, while an Infernal Warlock has gets powers that all derive from their Constitution, but a Star Pact Warlock has to keep up both Charisma and Constitution to get by if they...

    Chaos with At-Will Cantrips, and Casting Discretion

    Only half-joking: Looking again at cantrips, they seem almost too good. I started thinking that these seemingly minor things could cause all manner of havoc with a creative player due to several things, unless casting cantrips is so blindingly obvious that everyone knows the wizard just cast a...

    D&D 4E The 4e Paradigm: How well will we adapt?

    I remember when new computer roleplaying games or MMOs would come out, and after reading about the developers saying "we're doing this different," perhaps as in "you won't need to have a certain class combination in your party to be successful," at launch you'd have the players come in, and...

    Who will "fill in the grid"?

    Reading Necromancer Game's announcement about how they want to try and fill in the gaps and replace the "lost" classes and races for 4e right out of the gate, I started thinking about another area that third party publishers might want to look at entering, and it's one that would not be in...

    DDI Idea: Campaign Pages on the web

    Reading through various threads about DDI for 4e, value seems to be the major issue. I can't help but think of all the features that are offered by other places and things I might pay a subscription for online and compare. It's foolish for them to think that because it's something different...

    D&D 4E A Quibble About 4e Gods (rural)

    Ok, "God of Doorways" I get. I'm picturing a little old guy in a red suit with gold buttons that always gets to stand outside the gates to the higher planes and help the other gods out of their chariots. But I really hope there is an example of some sort of god more suitable for the rural...
