    Rituals

    You purchase the reagents to brew your own potions so that you can brew your own potions where ever you are and don't have to rely on NPCs having stuff in stock. With regards to prices you have missed a fundamental ascpect of the cost of things - the listed price of everything (including...

    Dwarves racial power?

    Put a cloak of the walking wounded on a Dwarven Warden and you are golden :)

    Fighter's Mark & Immediate Actions

    The way we remember it is as follows: If the attack is because of the mark, the fighter can only do it once per round and it is a standard melee basic attack. If it is an attack that any other character could also make (i.e. opp attack because of movement) then he gets the bonus and can stop the...

    Seminar Transcript - Reimagining Skills and Ability Scores

    The worrying thing for me about rolling for stats being the default is that the rest of the game has to be balanced against something (monsters etc) so the base systems are going to have to take into account that characters are going to have wildly differing stats. This means 1 of 2 things -...

    D&D 3E/3.5 How is this going to work? BECMI & 3.5 & 4e players all at once?

    The problem with this is that unless they release all of these modular books at launch, the system isn't going to be everything to everyone.

    New edition coming? Cool? Not rounding out 4th's core set? Not cool.

    But that is what epic tier is? The "tiers" are just a nice neat dividing lines, what the player's do in them and the stories that you tell is up to the group. The tier progression is always described as saving a town/ saving a nation / saving the world. If they don't release an epic tier DMG3...

    Eladrin, why?

    Then you have the short stocky hairy elves who call themselves dwarves, the short fat less hairy ones who call themselves halflings, the elves that went to live in the elemental chaos and called themselves Genasi etc. :erm:

    Essential classes, non essential paragons

    As others have said, a paragon path doesn't alter the base class in any way. The paragon path gives you a power at 11, 12 and 20, and one or more other features at 11 and 16.

    Average PC damage per hit?

    What about powers that specifically do more damage instead of applying effects? What about powers that have powerful effects but specifically do lower damage (just stat modifier, or fixed damage). What about ongoing damage? What about auto damage that are not "hits" (zones, divine challenge etc)...

    Average PC damage per hit?

    Surely you need to lower the variables a little? Level, role etc?

    Melee Ranger Dex/Int question

    Initiative is based off dex, so you would suffer there, plus if you ever did pick up a ranged weapon you would be at a massive disadvantage

    Pixie in heavy armor: Penalty to fly speed?

    Agreed. If you apply the slowed condition to something it's speed is changed to 2. This is applied to all it's movement modes.

    I wanna make a dual weild Ranger

    Let's not confuse the issue by talking about house rules. You could just as easily say you could house rule that anyone can attack as many times in a round as they want.

    I wanna make a dual weild Ranger

    To attack with 2 weapons you need to use a power that says you can use 2 weapons such as twin strike.

    Should Power Source have greater meaning?

    They dropped Ki ages ago, and as of this moment there are no Elemental power source classes. I find it very strange that you are arguing that they should "reduce the number of sources" to the same number there currently is by replacing an existing one with something that you have totally made...

    Should Power Source have greater meaning?

    Err, isn't that the current number of sources except you have left out shadow and added one of your own?

    D&D 1E Thinking of bringing my 1e AD&D DMG to my 4e game.

    If he is anything like me, I used to roll on the old random tables (treasure, encounters, what have you) invariably didn't like the result, re rolled, wasn't that keen on the re roll, so swapped the rolled +2 sword for a +2 hammer etc. I just use tables as a starting point or as a list of...

    Critique my Magic Item

    For the daily you are going to need to build in an equivalent of enhancement bonus to the attack roll, otherwise it will just be using half level + cha.

    What's the big deal with large PCs?

    The reach range on large weapons stays the same doesn't it? It's just the damage dice that goes up (and as everyone has said this in of it's self causes problems - see bugbears and minotaurs?). For large weapons I'd say just make things that are 2 handed have the versatile property instead. The...

    Folding proficiency into weapon speed

    Your initiative modifier only comes into play on the first round of combat. After the first time everyone has gone it it just a circular round of actions one after another. OK, all you have done here is repost your original post word for word. Reposting it isn't going to help me understand the...
