A change from the overly verbose "natural language" to something more simple and strongly codified. And more rigorous design, since I've been extremely unimpressed with what they've shown us in the playtest packets.
As mentioned, there's CBLoader for the Character Builder. It has been updated to date, with the last one coming earlier this month.
There's also an offline Compendium that uses XAMPP to run a local version, which can use a DDI account to scrape new content (last update to the DDI Compendium was...
You put a space between a word and an ending quotation mark! DON'T THEY TEACH PROPER GRAMMAR IN VAN NUYS?! :)
Anyway, she's right. The last official kender writeup was basically "steal everyone's stuff, blurt out their secrets, cry like a child when you get called on your crap (because...
When I was 12, I asked my DM about it and he pointed out that low birth rates (few elves are depicted as having more than 2 children and you need to have more than 2 children per couple for population to grow) would make elven society very risk adverse, since losing people can drive the birth...
The incident that made WotC stop selling PDFs was a case of crappy pirates being crappy at piracy. The day PHB2 was released, copies of it appeared on torrents... complete with all of the watermarks and security information showing that it came from DriveThruRPG and who the buyers (and original...

I should have thought of that. That'd...
Okay, I've had some time to put it through its paces, and here's some feedback mixed with some feature requests.
Also note that this list was going to be twice as long, but your last two updates fixed and upgraded a lot of stuff.
CONDITIONS/EFFECTS
I think the place you put this makes it...
Plenty of monsters have spell-like abilities and supernatural abilities that target saves. Using them while still using AC-targeting monsters against my allies isn't really that difficult.
It's the DM's job to figure out how to challenge the characters, not the player. If his solution is "You...
No, I didn't break the game. I made ONE defense (out of FOUR) impossible for him to hit using perfectly legal game elements he allowed.
He broke the game by not using his brain and thinking "Wow, he's got a weak Will, Reflex, and Fortitude. Which of those three should I attack, instead of...
Use attacks that don't target AC.
I had a DM who threw a fit because I built a 3.5 character that could not be hit on anything but a natural 20 by every monster, and instead of adapting, he demanded I change characters because he "can't handle it" and then canceled the campaign when the other...
