May Rules Update

[Stalker0]

Yeah, but with 4E geometry, you can move diagonally to sidestep one opponent and diagonally in the other direction to attack another opponent behind him while moving closer to the second opponent with each step. As follows:

X
.
. .
O. .
. . . /
. . /
. /
Y​

Sweet, well in that case go crooked charge!

I have a question about the new Version of Throw & Stab:

Do you have to move to an enemy? As far as I understand you get a move and a free melee attack but it doesn't say how you have to move. If it is now allowed to just move around instead of charging an enemy than it would still be a very useful skirmisher power (either attack to enemies or throw and move around)

The change of Solar Wrath from burst 8; 3d8+wis damage to burst 3; 2d6+wis is pretty major.

Thats going to have an impact on the exploding cleric in my game!

I like the errata.

1. I'm glad Infernal Wrath was changed; the Tieflings (in my different groups) usually forgot to plan with it or use it. I never expected errata though.

2. I have a healic. So I'm a bit dazed by the healing errata. But it needed it. I would turn all the strikers into striker-tanks.

3. Aura's damage stacking is going to be interesting, especially, for fighters who attract a lot of enemies (for example, with Come and Get It).

4. There's a Druid in my Group with the Spirit Talker feat, Spirit Companion. I'll be interested in knowing what he thinks about the errata.

5. Our Wizard had Enlarge Spell: He really liked using it with his Dailies. Our DM lets us "retrain," errata, and the Wizard player said he's going to retrain it for Superior Implement.

6. I'm glad they nerfed the Daggermaster. On the optimization boards that's all one would ever hear about (not really, but it got a lot of love)

7. Our Bard has Wail of Angusih. It was a really good. But now. I dunno. No damage die, thus no static mods to damage either now. I'll be interested in what she thinks too.

I wish they'd buff some of the more useless things.

Those are my thoughts so far. I like the changes. But, like a previous poster stated, i wish they would buff some of the more "useless" things.

I keep hoping that the essentials line will buff some of the PHBI classes and things. It seems a perfect opportunity.

Is a mellee basic attack a rogue power ?

 

[Istar]

Oh I see the Bloodiron Dagger component of the Twin Striking dAggermaster is also gone.

I wonder if this Weapon is now any good after this change.

You cant add War Ring and such onto the 2nd damage roll.

Maybe Wraithblade is better now ?

 

[Istar]

Yeah. The errata inclusion was a big part of what I liked about d20srd.org, and it's a similarly large part of what I like about the Rules Compendium.

However, it's also a big reason to never buy a physical book from WotC ever again.

Yes I agree, what we need it someone to make all the errata changes to their books, paste in colour prints of the new versions, and then publish them on 4-shared regularly so we can have the updated books at our fingertips.

Putting on a pirates voice .... Argh me wants more enlarged spells, in z game not less... making a new feat superior enlargement that was wizard spell specific would have been interesting... gimping the ability for mixed class arcanists shrug might be "bad form" old man "bad form"

Why nerf any Ranger At-will if you are not going to nerf Twin Strike??
