I have a really simple question i need clarification on Does the new RRoT trigger the High Crit property on weapons such as the Executioners Axe? Or does it only add the magical damage. If so this oddly seems a tad too powerful for the avenger in my group every encounter. It almost as if...

I've searched and read some examples of 4E version of the The Deck Of Many Things, but i wanted to attempt to make a version that was more balanced for the rules set for 4e. I don't really like the idea of having the PC's be at different levels or dealing with the trouble of a wish mechanic. A...

I'm running a group of 3 veteran players through a level 16 delve that i created, but the difference per 4/5/6 people in a group according to the DMG is 1400 XP. Should i reduce the XP even further given there is only 3 of them? or does subtracting 1400 xp from the level N encounter seem...

My players are questioning the rules for delaying your initiative, but not to avoid damage or harmful effects, but because some of their class types are better off going first fairly often. Example: Last game one of the players had no negative effects or condition on them whatsoever...

When you change the weapon type, do you also change the hit die for that weapon? or can a player keep a full blade d12 damage and change it do a rapier? furthermore, wouldnt the player also have to polymorph the weapon into a weapon they were proficient with? (thus not making a superior weapon...

So this just happened.. and were all questioning...."is this fair?" or "correct" Rogue had Drow poison on weapon.. as well as feats that made the mindflayer have a neg 4 to saving throws. Since the mind flayer is elite, it has a natural +2. So The mindflayer fails its first saving throw...

If you force movement using thunderwave or another similar ability through multiple of the squares do they take damage for each square? What if it goes through one part of the wall, exits, and enters another square for the same forced movement?

So i was browsing the phb2 again and i came across another feat that almost made my jaw drop... Weapon Expertise Benefit: Choose a weapon group. You gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls with any weapon power you use with a weapon from that group. The bonus increases to 2 at 15th level and +3 25th...

Ok, so i just picked up my PHB2 from Books-a-million. (i decided to get it now instead of waiting.. couldnt fight the urge) and i came across a feat that has me wondering about how i've been playing the game since it's release.. Restful healing Benefit: After you take a short rest or an...

A creature/character is hit with an attack that brings him/her to 0 hitpoints or knocks him unconscious. (such as sleep) If an attack goes off against that creature/character that does more damage if it is immobilized, does being unconscious ALSO mean that creature is immobilized? This...

I was using the automatic character sheet found here.. Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition - » D&D 4th Edition Character Sheets When i boosted my con score at level 4, 8, and 11 it increased my base HP by 1 for each point. I was under the impression that the starting hp was only calculated at...

I was attempting to find a Solo monster for my PC's to fight near a rather large and dangerous swamp. I decided that one of the more obvious choices was a Fen Hydra. Here is the stat block in the MM... Fen Hydra Level 12 Solo Brute Large natural beast (reptile) XP 3,500 Initiative +9...

So a group i ran back in 3.5 will be coming back together and they will be starting at level 12. I'm having trouble deciding how many magic items they are suppose to have at level 12. I've tried to understand the rewards section of the DM's guide, but i'm not exactly sure how to read it. Do i...
