So, 12 pages in. Has anyone demonstrably provided evidence that essentials is not compatible with non-essentials? Again, I think we're being trolled. Jhaelen is waiting for the right moment to be like "hah, gotcha!" Right? Please say yes. Someone.

You're the man, Dave. Keep up the great work!

Any immediate action ;) As an example, I had a player try to manipulate Disruptive Strike by drawing an opportunity attack during his own turn. There are more, but I'm not sure if you need them. This works with any immediate action attack power that triggers off of the monster doing something...

If a power has a conditional effect, the condition can be met if they ready the action and then use their action point to meet the requirement. Granted, if your group is working just fine as is, there is no reason to change it because of the possibility. Do what generates the most fun. If that...

Two new official WotC themes -> Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Born from Shadow)

It took me months to ween some of my Dark Sun home game players off of the LFR mentality. I even lost one player because of it. Short rests went horribly wrong when the supporting text said "roughly a 5 minute break."

In your home game, would you allow one of your players to ready an action, move, and then spend an action point on a separate action--just to then allow the readied action to go off? I can see some very interesting and overpowered combinations with this.

Things can get really messy, really quick. That being said, in your home game, do what is the most fun. I can, however, see the deliberate use of specific actions just to get the immediate action to trigger. Monsters will get obliterated rather quickly, causing the DM to have to further mutate...

This thread is starting to show personal attacks. I'll bow out before I get banned again for using the word turd to describe anyone ;) I can't see how anyone who has played with an amalgamation of both essentials and non-essentials classes can say they are incompatible. We are being trolled.

That's way too long.

I was really looking forward to these last year at Gen Con. I was bummed when they never made it out! I'm glad to see it isn't lost yet. The TerraClips looks to be a solid product.

Quoted for emphasis!

This thread is interesting and eye-opening. I may need to draft an article for Loremaster.org in regards to helping out. 4e, unlike most other RPGs that I have played over the past couple of decades, is easier for me to improve and story-tell in.

lol

I've never run into anyone who plays 4e that has had any issues of confusion when it comes to essentials and non-essentials products. Most of them log into the CB and just build a character, unaware of those products being "different". They log on, choose options, and move along. I'm not...

Flavor. I wanted it to represent the character going up, touching their opponent, and draining the life force out of both of them. I didn't want to make it a ranged attack.

Why is this still being debated? Why does it matter? Why am I not wearing any pants? All questions that are really not important. The number one question should be: Do you enjoy getting together with your buds and play D&D? For what it's worth, my players mix and match content. There's really...

Thanks Teo! I'm glad you like it.

Updated link: Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Born from Shadow) I think they corrected the double-article posting. As for the Vampire... meh. I honestly wasn't trying to be all-inclusive. Essence of death can be used by a non-weapon class. You just have to get...

I can't give you XP so you will just have to settle for an interweb high-five.
