    Questions about Double-swords

    Right but what happens when you compare the double sword to the urgrosh, which is also a double weapon with two different weapon type attributes, but very obviously different "weapon heads"? The September releases seem to have a slew of ambiguity and items/powers that were poorly thought out...

    Munch me a blaster character, please!

    Close. You get to choose two powers from the list of utility (2) powers. Then, each extended rest you are able to choose which one of those you're going to use until the next extended rest. Some utility powers are not daily powers but are rather encounter powers. So, if during an extended...

    switching a versatile weapon between 1h and 2h, what action?

    Well the title pretty much says it all. If I have a character holding a versatile weapon, say a longsword, in one hand and want to switch to holding it in two hands, what type of action is required? Likewise, if I'm holding a versatile weapon in two hands and want to switch to holding it in...

    Level 7 spellscarred power WHOA!

    Yeah, um... wow... (that's what I get for misinterpreting a poster's intentions)

    Level 7 spellscarred power WHOA!

    I'm not sure I'm following where you're going with this one. Blood Pulse does have a maximum range between targets, is a paragon path power, and also has entirely different effects. I'm not all up in arms about the fact that the power is ranged 15. The issue is the maximum potential distance...

    Level 7 spellscarred power WHOA!

    Just picked up the FRPG. Checking out the spellscarred powers, I noticed something that seems a tad out of whack. The level 7 power "cursed grasping air" is "ranged 15", has two targets, and has a hit line that reads as follows: "2d6+int,wis,or cha damage. If you hit both targets, you slide...

    Acid Arrow's Secondary Attack

    I tend to think of acid arrow as creating enough acid to cover the surface of the primary target. When the target is hit, it riles back in anguish and some of that acid gets thrown off of it and splashes in the nearby surrounding area. With respect to the original question of range, I thought...

    Forked Thread: What are must-have Have Heroic Tier magic items?

    I didn't think it did, but the OP was suggesting that it did. I was just seeking clarification for why the OP though that.

    Forked Thread: What are must-have Have Heroic Tier magic items?

    Just out of curiosity, what suggests that the tiefling's fire resistance would stack with the cloak's fire resistance?

    Acid Arrow's Secondary Attack

    Yeah I presented this kinda wonky the first time around. Let me clarify what I was trying to go for, and then present a better interpretation. Ok, acid arrow hits a target and then has secondary attacks on every target adjacent to the primary target. For purposes of this discussion, it can be...

    Acid Arrow's Secondary Attack

    Five squares? As far as the range of the secondary damage, wouldn't they still be in range because the origin square of the power was in range? p271 describes the origin square as being a square within range, but makes no claim that all of the area attack's squares must be within that range...

    Wizard Confusion

    Actually, although worded differently, the message from both of their posts is the same. As a wizard at level 6 you will have, in your spellbook, for dailies, two 5th level spells and two 1st level spells. After an extended rest, you have two slots to fill, one fifth level spell slot and one...

    Swordmages and half-orcs hit the streets!

    Well it's an implement power, not a weapon power, so in order to use it effectively at later levels, the swordmage is going to have expend a bunch of actions that round or lose that extra AC bonus everyone keeps talking about (requires a free hand). --this is assuming that swordmages can't use...

    Combat Challenge and Opportunity Attack

    Now having had a chance to take a look at the rules, I'm inclined to say that while, yes, the character in this case could get off two attacks, it's not particularly unbalanced as the warpriest's mark can only affect a single opponent at a time. It's similar to the paladin, in that he can mark...

    Combat Challenge and Opportunity Attack

    Opportunity Attacks do indeed interrupt an opponent's action, however, per Phb268, they are classified as an "opportunity action" whereas immediate interrupts are classified as an "immediate action". You are correct that a character only gets one Opportunity action per opponent's turn, however...
