Right, like the Character Visualizer and Game Table. Say, does the online version of the Monster Builder let you build monsters yet?

I personally use condition tokens I got from Litko Aerosystems. In particular, I got two of these, though I probably only needed one: 4E Condition Tokens, Game Masters Set - LITKO Game Accessories And one of these: Bloodied Tokens, Set of 10 - LITKO Game Accessories The bloodied tokens are...

I've recently made a new battlemind, and I'm having trouble understanding how 2 of my at-wills work. 1) Twisted Eye (PHBIII, P.45) reads: Is the size of the penalty determined when I score the hit, or when the enemy makes an attack? Example: Me and 3 of my allies are adjacent to a goblin when...

I think it's: (While you wield a weapon in your primary hand) AND (your off hand is free OR grabbing a creature),

I was actually recently thinking that Devas are the best D&D analogue to Trills, from Star Trek.

We always did. It's called the 3E Character Optimization forum.

Also keep in mind that a defender has to do 2 things to be effective: 1) Have HP and defenses high enough that they can take the enemy's attacks (in this case, done). 2) Have enough punishment/control to keep the enemies from attacking the rest of the party. If he doesn't have #2, start...

Monks are much more balanced in 4E, and their mechanics have unique flavor. That last phrase might sound like a weird statement. What I mean is that monks in 4E have some mechanics that are unlike anything any other class has, and these mechanics help to build the monk's unique flavor. Really...

I forgot about the potential for critical hits in my math, but don't worry about it.

The expected value of the double attack, assuming both attacks hit, is 40 damage. Barring situational modifiers to attack rolls, and going against an AC of 17 (the lowest in the party), the average damage is 32, accounting for the probability of a miss. Against an AC of 26, which I presume...

The vast majority of creatures created by Figurines of Wondrous Power also lack basic attacks.

I feel like I used to know the answer, but then it was stealth errataed two or three times. I also feel like it might work differently for PCs than it does for Monsters, but that probably isn't right. In short, I'm also hanging on for the answer.

Back when there was the ton of hoopla over the missed DDI update, I recall hearing that there were rumors of 'new web-based content' coming to DDI, and that's about all the detail I ever heard. Then my prospects for getting a game going faded, so I stopped following the boards here. Have we...

Here are some notes I made comparing a few programs. It's not meant as an exhaustive list; I made them for my own purposes and thought that I might as well share them. I ended up going with DMBS. Dungeon Master's Battle Screen + Can import from CB and AT + Can prepare battles in advance...

What sorts of things are in the Table Rules section? Dealing with Expertise feats? Any info on the Nentir Vale that we haven't seen before?

I'm not running Dark Sun. I just permit mechanics from other campaign settings in my game. You know, swordmages, artificers, drow, genasi, changelings, kalashtar, warforged. And I don't make new power cards for each session, I make them at levelup. Which is about once every 3 weeks. When an...

You're right. They should just get rid of DDI and force us all to buy more books.

Hi. I'm a DM who prepares power cards for all of his PCs. Guess he's leaving the Dark Sun book with me each week.

Power creep of player vs monster is an issue when you're running a premade adventure to save on prepwork. Keep on the Shadowfell is now a much easier adventure than it used to be.

I think I'm starting to see some of the signs of 4.5 or 5E, but nothing nearly significant enough to say that it's expected. The main 'patching' issues I'd expect from a 4.5E would be these: 1) Cleric, Paladin, and Ranger adjusted to be like the other classes (single primary ability score...
