    Best use of rituals you have seen so far?

    water walking on the rogue, who then ran to retrieve the 2 pieces of a dagger on the other side of a room full of blood and demons. (thunderspire labrynith) Allowed them to avoid the combat almost entirely.

    brash strike - too good or simply good?

    Uncanny dodge at paragon will eliminate the -2 (but not bonus damage that lurker types do with CA)..

    Healing between encounters

    If this intermediate rest required healing surges to be used, then it would be no different than a short rest now..as you can use as many healing surges as you want (leader or not) to heal up to full...a leader in the party just allows you to use less healing surges. I've not found allowing...

    Dumb Question: Multi-Hit Attack Damage

    alot of it, as well as the hunters quarry. Remember that one of the ranger's main attacks, twin strike, does NOT add his dexterity/strength bonus to the damage (tho feat, weapon enhancements, etc are included).

    Dumb Question: Multi-Hit Attack Damage

    That only applies to Close and Area attacks. Melee and Ranged attacks you roll seperate damage for each target hit. (see pages 270 - 271 of the PHB)

    Reliable debate

    you should check the errata..er..updates..as the text for reliable has changed. So, if you hit with any part of the power, you can't use the reliable keyword..you have to miss all attacks to keep the power.

    Fighter: Rain of Steel plus Endure Wallop

    no, Rain of Steel does not count as hitting the enemy as there is no attack roll. It's more like an aura than a hit. Also, there is no 'hit' line in the power.

    Fighter Power doubts

    1- Cleave does your Strength mod in damage to an adjacent target. You don't get to add most modifiers to this as they generally need to be added to damage rolls, not static numbers. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is the Pit Fighters level 16 ability to add wisdom mod to...

    Shake It Off vs. Dazed

    I disagree. Since the save is during the Warlord's turn, not at the end of his turn, once he is undazed, he is no longer limited by the daze to one action. note that the power allows to make a save NOW, with a bonus, not at the end of your turn... Basically, the power allows you to make a...

    Shield Push Question

    I would not think it invalidates the close blast at all. you are pushed back, so the origin square is different from where you intended it to be. Nothing about the push changes the origin square of the blast, just because you moved from where you intended, the origin square is till a square in...

    Shield Push Question

    my comprehension skills are sorely lacking this soon after waking up....

    Reaping Strike/Bastard Sword

    not only that, but Mearls seems to be saying that a fighter with One-handed Weapon talent use Reaping Strike while holding a Versatile weapon (say a bastard sword) with both hands, that fighter would get both a +1 to hit (One-handed weapon talent) and the extra damage from using a two-handed...

    Running the Well of Demons in Thunderspire Labrynth -Warning Spoilers!

    My party actually had one death in the mirror room...most of the party got trapped in the separate room and the Warlock bravely made his way to the altar...(walking with his eyes closed). Thinking he'd be safe when he entered the curtain he was very supprised by the 2 Skeletons there, and...

    What's better: Rain of Blows, or Hesitation Slash?

    ignore this..I made a reading error :)

    Charge - To nearest square? Huh?

    see the diagram on page 281. This diagram is correctly drawn. note where the burst 2 origin square is. By Hypersmurf's reading, the 2nd square from the left at the top of the diagram should be blue....but it is not because the corner is not adjacent to the origin thus you must count around...

    Charge - To nearest square? Huh?

    but you only count across a corner if it is an adjacent square to the origin square...after that you have to count around obstacles.

    Area Bursts and Cover

    hasn't been a problem in my games. The Fire ball doesn't automatically hit, the wizard still has to roll an attack roll vs. each target. Plus it is realistic that a burst effect (say a bomb) that hits behind the lines would not be effected by cover on the other side of the enemies. One way...

    Misuse of the save mechanics in the MM to reintroduce save or die effects

    If I remember correctly, it was a goal to remove the '1 failed save kills/incapacitates you', not all killing/incapacitating powers. For the medusa, it takes 3 failed saves (not 1) to become petrified. It it not a misuse of the save mechanic, as it represents the PC slowly turning to stone...

    How can an enemy get past the Fighter?

    but isn't quite as bad, since it is not an OA, the fighter does not get to add his wisdom modifier and doesn't stop your shift like he would a move.
