    Teleportation / Fey Step in three dimensions

    Ditto. Unless you're Kirby or Tanuki Mario... but then we have other problems. On a slight side tangent, what do people think of offensive teleports being able to go straight up. For example, Will of the Feywild (Feytouched 11). "Blah blah, hit for damage and teleport 5 squares... blah."...

    Illumination

    .... Wow. Oi! We found a cave! You got your sunglasses?! :cool: On the bright side for DMs, that amount of light is bound to warn creatures of the PCs coming. :]

    Flanking around a corner

    By the Rules, R and W do indeed have flanking. Nothing in flanking nor cover denies this. R would have a net bonus of +0 [+2 flanking, -2 cover]. W would have a net bonus of +2 [+2 flanking]. F... is just sitting there being pretty. :) Btw, that is a very nice diagram you attached. I'm a...

    Line Of Sight - why not from Center of square?

    The closest thing I can come up with (for ranged attacks) is leaning out to see someone.

    Trap Is Triggered And DM Is Confused

    As presented, that's how it works. But it's in the DMG... you can change it. If I run this, I might actually change it so the spears don't trigger unless there is pressure on the specific plate. I'd probably increase the level by 1 or 2.

    Perpetual Motion Killer Bolder

    Put a magnet on it, lay some wire on the ground, and keep the electricity for yourself! Muahaha. :devil: [Yes, I know that's not exactly how a generator works. Spare me.]

    Soldier of Faith Marking

    It's in a really bad place. It talks about magical compulsion then finally says that. I love how it's under the Special: tag when the whole power is special. Doesn't change much except you have to bounce it around creatures.

    Reviewing the Artificer

    I don't think the problem was actual XP and feat usage... It was apparent XP and feat usage. To many players, being one level behind is horrible. Spending XP? Even worse! Having to spend 1-2 of your 7 feats? Ghastly! Basically, it was all in the player's mind, but it was enough to...

    Soldier of Faith Marking

    Combat Superiority and some cleverness. Combat Challenge is actually quite ineffective at stopping creatures whereas it excels at stopping people from shifting and hitting allies.

    Initiate of the Faith

    Yes, it scales. The scaling is part of Healing Word itself.

    D&D 4E Handling things like Riding and Craft with 4E Skills.

    With the Mounted Combat feat, your mount can use your Athletics, Acrobatics, etc. for itself. This is a close approximation to riding skill. As for craft... haven't done anything with it yet, but I plan on doing a skill challenge. Dungeoneering, Nature, Arcana to find out how to build...

    Non Lethal Damage?

    Please go reread your game manuals. It was NEVER stated as solely a measure of your health.

    Rolling Abilities

    It's not stated to be optional. It's stated to be "Method 3." The only part even possibly disallowing its use is "You can't use this to make characters for the RPGA."

    Soldier of Faith Marking

    The problem comes in that it can be used at range. A paladin marks a creature that is engaged with the fighter. He then backs off and shoots with a bow. Due to this, he has engaged the target. If the fighter is the least effective at locking the creature down, it can't reach the paladin...

    Rolling Abilities

    The problem I've had with rolling is that it's always one player that always rolls amazingly lucky. On two seperate occasions, we've had a player roll, in front of the whole group, 13/17/17/17/17/17 WITHOUT rerolling any dice. I think he ended up playing a monk the last time that happened...

    Soldier of Faith Marking

    Well, the mark would still be there as long as the Paladin kept engaging it (as outlined in Divine Challenge). It's just that the damage only occurs once per use of Divine Challenge. If you wanted the damage, you'd have to renew with a minor action. The 'old way' of doing Divine Challenge...

    Non Lethal Damage?

    Bah, those soldiers are monsters, so they can't use healing surges by themselves. And if my DM said that... I would probably attack the LT just so I could heal his ass. Edit: On a sidenote... why does Wizards suck at keeping their forums online?

    Soldier of Faith Marking

    Well, there's one theory going around that the normal Divine Challenge only deals damage the first time. I'm actually starting to go along with it, as it's more in line with Combat Challenge. So you challenge a creature. If it makes an attack that doesn't include you before the start of your...

    Rolling Abilities

    They ran out of hamburger buns.

    Ok, BAB?

    Um, the bonuses for the Human Wizard aren't high... +4 is the Wizard's Intelligence, which is what they use for most of their attacks.
