The way the Compendium writes it, the secondary attack is NOT dependent on previous hits (no indentation/mention of secondary attack in hit line). So three attacks max, if you have the right weapons,etc. IF in the phb there is an indentation before the secondary attacks, then it would imply...

The lack of PP is probably because the gnolls are not a "mainline" PC race, while warforged are quite likely to be (i won't be surprised if the warforged PP's are seen again in eberron somewhere). I really liked it. I actually like the "soul of the Hyena" part better than the "demon spawn of...

I agree the Warrior King one was my favorite by far, finally one that fits with a warrior type. Plus i dig the 'instead of making a death saving throw, stand up with half you hitpoints and remove all conditions' ability. High elf mage was really fluffy in how good it really is and seemed oddly...

It is pretty reasonable to allow it to fly. in order to pick things up, etc, its already changing its elevation slightly. Its perfectly reasonable However: The power specifically states "you may move it 5 squares as a move action", and there are several other powers with identicle wording...

The main reason Sleep spell is seen as different from 'sleep 263' is because the crunch part of the spell NEVER uses the word sleep to describe what happens to the target. The victim is unconscious after the first failed save. He isn't asleep, he's unconscious, those are the words used. By...

what you should do is have the hand hold the bow string, so it doesn't fire....(because the string obviously weighs less than 20 pounds :-P ) Honestly, i wouldn't let it give anywhere near an -2 to attack. If mage hand could give a -2 penalty, they'd have said so. Mage hand is for moving...

I have to agree this is not a "say yes" occasion. You 'say yes' to a player saying "i want to try and accomplish this new thing that they wouldn't have thought to make precise rules for" you don't 'say yes' to a player trying to avoid the natural consequences of a power. Bursts and blast have...

If there is no save, and shaking/damage won't raise on to consciousness (which is indeed the current ruling, personally i think damage really should end sleep, one coup de gras is pretty good for a 1st level spell) then yes its an out of control power, relatively easy to get a sure kill unless...

1. Unless the description says otherwise, you get to use it as both, thus you could use heavy blade and light blade feats on the same attack. Things like weapon focus wouldn't stack (its a named bonus, isn't it?) but you could use heavy blade oppurtunity and light blade prescion in the same...

Also i would say that you should let the character qualify as their ally. Many powers aid an ally (but no themselves) in some way, let them use it to help/buff/shift themselves, this will help out leaders a bit, but all classes will benefit. This will increase their overall power, but that just...

Godplate +6 and plate +12 would have been more or less the same thing as far as AC is concerned. The reason they did it this way was so that armor stayed on a 1-6 rating (and so there wouldn't be different light to heavy bonuses (+8 vs +12) ) If you can't have swords +12, you shouldn't have...

I really like the name Aasimar. Its a good name. It just really doesn't say "half-divine" to me. If you said that name to me and asked me to figure out what kind of race i'd associate with it i'd probably pick our some half-effreet or maybe a cat person or something. It took me a long time...

The secound D&D gameday senario was 5 level 1 PC's verses 1 white dragon (2 fighters, 1 cleric, 1 rogue, 1 wizard all pregenereated). Open range, dragon could fly around etc. It was tough, and several people yo-yoed a bit, but we drove it off (was within 1 hit of dying) This was with the DM...

Yes, you can have them follow any path you can dream up that fits within the number of square movable, you don't just pick a direction and move them that many squares. As far as i can tell none of the forced movements tell you to just pick a direction, you could for example push a character 1...

Weakened effects all damage, so your magic is stunted too...seems like mind and body. Or just combine them. You seem to be saying you want them to be able to do little physically and mentally, so Daze to limit actions, weaken to limit the few actions they can do, and slow them while you're at...

I think you're more arguing that summoning is a low point of 4e, which is a fair opinion to have. Me, i'm fine with it. It quickly limits the ridiculous "i have 12 actions per round between me and my summoned hoard of critters". Its restrictive, but the theory is that summoning shouldn't out...

double post

Actually where rangers can make up lost ground is in the additional attacks adding additional STR+enhnacement+feats. at high levels this can be easily 15 damage (+6 enhancment, +3 feat, +6-8 stat) which is ~2[w] to 4[w]'s average damage depending on weapon (i'm just eyeballing the math...

This post addresses whether you can gain the benefits of the 'properties' of two implements at the same time. Its not necessarily the conclusion i would have reached on my own, but i think the poster does a decent job of verify it...

the whole point of heavy armour is that you can't really 'dodge' in it. You can't dodge out of attacks, and you can't dodge into them either. You just stand there and let it bounce off you. A penalty can't cause you to "stand there and let it bounce off you" any worse, can it? So RAW you...
