    Free healing with Life Transference

    One ally would definitely be an improvement to the power. Playing through Trollhaunt as well, level 13. And really, our adventuring day tends to end more from running out of daylight than surges or dailies. Granted there's 6 of us on a good day, including 2ish leaders. I'm not sure I can...

    Free healing with Life Transference

    No, I caught that... I was purposefully not considering it, 'cuz it's just as broken as you say it is if that's allowed. Life Transference is so crazy. Good call on Cleric of Melora though, I was wondering if there was any other encounter power regeneration.

    Free healing with Life Transference

    So, I noticed this interaction the other day. It seems like a Longtooth Shifter Cleric with Life Transference can heal nearly the entire party to full, without spending any healing surges. It only requires taking 3-4 extra short rests. If I'm reading things right, I could use Life...

    Monster Manual 2 and Elite/Solo design

    I play a decent amount of MtG. WotC does in fact issue errata on older cards. (They've changed the creature type on a ridiculous number of old cards for no good reason) And much like they're doing now with the DDI, the erratas are often as not fairly random and only posted in their version of...

    Wearing armor and resting

    If you want to encourage players to rest without their armor, instead of applying a penalty if they don't.. Why not give a small "well rested" bonus if they do take off the armor? ie. Instead of losing a healing surge if you sleep in armor, why not gain a healing surge if you don't sleep in...

    Cheater Dice? Why?

    One of the guys I game with spent about 3 months failing to threaten a crit on a 15-20, so I picked up a blank d20 and a Drimmel and made him a d20 that was just numbered 16-20 four times. The DM let him use it for one session, but I'm not sure it's seen the light of day since.

    Swordmage stacking fire damage.

    I'd agree with you completely if it was a secondary Effect. But it's part of the Hit entry. Hence the confusion.

    Swordmage stacking fire damage.

    A buddy of mine is starting a Swordmage and wants to take both Greenflame Blade and Burning Blade. Then he asks me how the interact, since Greenflame Blade does Str. mod in fire damage to adjacent enemies. I'm sure the 1W+INT turns into 1W+INT+STR. I assume the STR to adjacent turns into 2xSTR...

    Kobold Dragon Shield mark?

    It's not exactly that the fighter's mark is the basic mark. There's not a 'mark' per say. Things give you the "marked" condition. It's described on pg 277 of the PHB.

    The formula for magic item prices

    I was looking at the Xp/level chart in the PHB, and it goes in chunks of 4 levels too. It also seems to change to a different formula from level 22 up. Up to level 21, it looks like the formula for the amount of Xp you need to gain to get to the next level is...

    The formula for magic item prices

    I think you've got a really good idea there, but I think there's a simpler way. Consider 2 facts.* 1) The sale price of an item is 1/5 of its purchase price. 2) The sale price of an item is the purchase price of an item 5 levels lower. This gives a repeating pattern where every for 5 item...

    Inferlock Curse loop?

    Can it be correct though? If it affects you at thrice the strength in addition to the original effect, isn't 3+1=4 and you end up affected quadruply? And if you're affected 1x, 3x and 4x... the only amount you can be affected, that they're all equal is zero.

    Wizards is giving away a free Magic: The Gathering deck

    I got mine. 2x 30 card decks, one red, the other green. Maybe there will be other colors too? 2 uncommons 15-ish commons 13-ish lands (the green deck had 15/13, the red deck had 16/12) Really pretty deck boxes, but they're the 40 card sized boxes. Something to hold limited decks in maybe...

    Nope. He's two quarterlings.
