    Everything we know about D&D 5th Edition

    if I could request one small addition/enhancement to the New update system, it would to include a timestamp or date segment to each update. this would help with checking backdated information and help quick-browsing the thread. just my 2cp. Daniel

    D&D 4E Hexblade Adaptation to 4E

    Heres my attempt to begin adapting the Hexblade class from 3.5E's Complete Warrior to 4E. Most of the class features roll-over quite nicely actually, but I would definitely love to have some input for power building, Paragon Paths, Epic Destinies and such. I would like to take some liberty with...

    Character Advancement: PHB vs. DMG

    I will be attending Origins Gaming Fair in a few weeks and the new Character Creation Guidlines are online at the RPGA site (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=rpga/news/20080609a). The Guidlines refrences the DMG (pg. 143) for creating characters higher than 1st level and there is a table...

    Sneak Attack + Critical Hit?

    Seems to me only weapon damage is maxed and that precision based damage (high crit, SA, magic, etc) are added after. maxing SA damage realy breaks rogue damage output. then again, with the need to Combat Advantage and how hard it is to get a crit in this edition, it doesnt really bother me...

    Keep on the Shadowfell character sheet scans

    Im intrigued that Trapfinding is no longer, at least at lvls <4, a rouge only class feature. I guess if you spent the time training in how to find/work with traps of any sort (Thievery Skill) you can find and disable them. Paladin cc trapsmith ftw!

    Undead subject to sleep?

    From my understanding, Undead are _magicaly_ brought back to life to varieing degrees, from instinctual awareness of the mindless zombie to the rebinding of a soul in a lich's phylactery. At the baseline of them all is a current of magic on which they survive, much as living creatures on oxygen...

    Second Son: A 1st Level 4th Edition Adventure

    So, here's another short playtest report. I forget to take notes Monday night but I have a fairly good recolection of the devistation I wrought apon my players. ;) I'll preface by giving a quick run down on the players, their experiences and general feel to the new game. Jon comes from...

    Second Son: A 1st Level 4th Edition Adventure

    Seems all monsters scale exp. wise by 25 (with possible exception for boss-type mobs and minions). Level 5 Mobs are worth 200xp, so it would follow suit that level 6 (Chillborn) are worth 225 each. I notice that the Shadar-kai is worth 250xp. I'm not sure if thats due to him being a boss-type...

    Paragon Path names revealed by Jonathan Tweet!

    Iron Vanguard I wonder if there will be any thematic connection between the Iron Vanguard path and the new Iron dragons, simular to how Warlords can have the Iron Dragon Charge daily power. and if there is such a corrilation, I wonder if the other paths are metalic dragon related, or maybe just...

    Character sheet concept for Dragonborn Warlord

    my only real beef with your concept so far is the above. its a racial version of what appeares to be a Paladin ability (see Pregen). Imagine a DB Pal would gain a +10 vs fear? they'd only have to roll a 1 to succeed. I'd try something like: Dragonborn Pride (+2 Racial bonus to Will Defense)...

    Second Son: A 1st Level 4th Edition Adventure

    Ok, Ive ran the 1st encounter twice now (once IRL, once ORPG) and the 2nd encounter once (ORPG) and everyone seems to like it so far. I'm still the playtest reports for both, but i will post one memorable moment from todays encounter 2: The Warlock tries to sneak ahead of the party and use her...
