Unfortunately, I wonder if all the disadvantages are going to make chases feel like wet noodle fights. Where's the epic moment where the ranger makes herself a target by shooting the leading bandit off their horse? Or when the wizard hangs out the carriage door to magic missile (or, you know...

...just turn the bag inside out to get out the soup.............. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

no worries. just offering feedback on what i thought could be some concerns. good luck!

re: not cantrip - Good point re: damage - +1d6 per attack, at least as i read it [edited for clarity]

I guess the only reason that I brought it up was the title of the thread :) But in general, I'd love to see more spells/abilities, so that multiple classes don't all feel so similar. As far as usability goes, I'd likely either dip cleric or take Magic Aptitude as a fighter to get Glorify...

Can't agree with you here. The worst thing ever was having a wizard/sorcerer running around with a crossbow for when they ran out of spells. Sure, there are certain situations where stuff happens (like the troll/firebolt combo) but honestly, with the Spawn's DEX save, I'm surprised that a low...

How are you creating these? Is this with the Magic Set Editor program or something else? Regardless, what are the chances that you can release your format such that I can use it? By Tuesday night. For my first 4e session. :cool: Please? Edit: Nevermind. Went back to the sourceforge...
