Arcane Power questions ahead of time

[Dice4Hire]

1) Are there any feats/paragon paths that encourage specialization in an implement (implement equivalents of things like weapon focus, scimitar dance or the polearm master paragon)?
2) Are there any feats/paragon paths that encourage energy specialization (they already had some in the PHBs, both 1 and 2, but hopefully there are more)?

There are feats to up most implements, especially wizard ones.

There is a bit of energy specialization, but not as much as PHBII

 

[WhatGravitas]

Wizards get 3 new at-wills, and their control is better than PHB.

Really short description of what they are approximately doing (nothing too specific, just like "area effect with slide" or "single target with some attack penalty" or something like that)?

Cheers, LT.

All three are ranged 10 and the first two are illusion vs will

Illusory ambush: Damage and the target gets -2 to attack form one round

Phantom Bolt: Damage and slide target one square

Storm Pillar: Create pillar of lightning in a square within 10, Any enemy that moves into an adjacent square takes damage.

Can I get the details on the Eladrin Sword Wizardry feat - is it the same as the Wizard of the Spiral Tower power? Also, are there alternate multiclass feats for the arcane classes like those in Martial Power - specifically for the Wizard? I'm looking for Ftr/Wiz type stuff without having to actually be a Swordmage..

 

[Klaus]

Any new warlock multiclass feats? Any new warlock paragon multiclass feats?

 

[Nymrohd]

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that there are 5 multiclass and 5 paragon multiclass feats one for its class.

 

[Mengu]

Nevermind.

You know, that was in the illusion article many, many moons ago.

Storm Pillar: Create pillar of lightning in a square within 10, Any enemy that moves into an adjacent square takes damage.

Just move, or starts their turn there as well? This sounds, well, weaker than Flame Seed.

Dice4Hire, I want to give you a big thanks for this.

The bard gets Virtue of Prescience, which means once an encounter, the bard can ad his wisdom bonus to one ally's defense .

Once per encounter? The other bard stuff get to do their thing once per round. That's ass. Also, shame no wisdom-related powers. Lame.

I see no specific secondary stat for an ensnaring Swordmage. The Aegis of Enbsnarement is nice, though. =

Really? No Powers with "Aegis of Ensnarement" that offer a bump to the power with 1 + Secondary Stat?

 

[Nymrohd]

On the WotC thread he listed Con as the secondary for Aegis of Ensnarement. When we learned about bards using Wis I was so hoping the new Aegis would use Dex
