    Fourth Edition is a MASTERPIECE!

    The way I see it, the battle just starts going in your favor. It isn't "This one guy totally got X bonus for one turn", but more "A golden cross appeared in the sky, and our side began to turn the tide. People kept standing when they should have fallen. Crucial blows that should have missed tore...

    Tiefling Paladin... Ouch

    You need to name this combo. Given its amount of prep time relative to the prep time of most attacks, I suggest "The Spirit Bomb". "Quick, distract Orcus while I charge up the Spirit Bomb." "What?! How long will that take?" "About 4 episodes."

    Take a feat get armor prof... no drawbacks?

    Actually, he'd spend 4ish feats on getting basic heavy armor (not full plate). And then when he wears it, he won't get his Intelligence bonus to his armor class, like he does when he wears light armor.

However, you can use its colloquial version "icks-it-shack-it-all" without all the...

    Orcus Previews the 4e Core Rulebooks

    When I saw the thread title, I was filled with both hope and dread. I figured it was another one of those animated shorts, ala the Gnome&Tiefling, the Beholder, and the Mindflayer. I was expecting, within a few seconds, to hear "Hi, I'm Orcus, and these are my minions. Say hello, little...

    How will you read the core books day one?

    I read a D&D book like I make love to a woman: Until their spine breaks.

    Multiclassing tidbit.

    I'll just point out that it doesn't actually say what he did in either instance. "Save from Oni" doesn't seem like a Leader-specific ability. He could have slapped the Oni in the face, disabling its "Eat Cleric's Soul" power, which seems Defendery to me. Also "give all my comrades the edge"...
