The lurker class has be tried and it failed. See the original Assassin and there Shroud and Shade Form mechanics.

One of the issues here is that D&D Encounters just isn't meant for anyone who enjoys anything else in D&D other than the combat mechanics. If you're not a huge fan of combat it will burn 4e out for you. Try a proper campaign instead. Also, I think since WotC is essentially (no pun intended)...

i'm afraid the article is going to be fluff or unsupported unearthed arcana (though to be fair th e.a articles are good but very situational so i wouldnt expect feat support). hope i'm proven wrong.

I imagine this is intended to read like the version that was given to us in the final CC Cleric update. Which is that it works on Healing Word AND Divine healing powers in which a character spends a surge and not solely healing word. So this is fine.

I'm excited to see some elements reigned in (strategist winiphany) and other expanded on (hurray Animal Master!), but I feel, after months and months without a proper errata document (other than changing a level 1 item to level 11), this is a little sparse. Also, I guess we aren't getting...

http://www.wizards.com/dnd/files/UpdateJune2011.pdf The June errata is up.

I didn't think it'd be on there, but I wonder if we'll see the June errata document soon. Also, hurray for assassin/executioner options. Maybe THESE will do damage. Keep at it WotC. A theme. . . that uses Fortune Cards. This feels so obligatory and forced. I have nothing against either game...

This is why I shouldn't write responses at 2AM . . . I might as well have sent links to Heroclix rule books from 2004.

Multiclass feats for the original assassin were in 379 and 382. The executioner feat I believe also gives you Ki focus (but that's from an article that's being play tested currently) and the Monk multiclass will give you Ki focus. Those feats are from PHB3/Psionic Power, which the latter is...

There is a Ki focus, level 9, called Forked Lightning. You can turn melee damage into Lightning damage (so any melee class more or less). The power on it triggers when you deal lighting damage and allows you to Raiden teleport to another enemy within 5 squares and make an MBA against it. Picking...

I think the other answers are stuff people asked about, so that's cool. Though, I think most people haven't noticed articles with monster themes in them (there's at least 1 shadow one in the last month or 2). Themes are just optional powers and less stat upgrades (with all the AC bonuses that...

Maybe Mearls is just trolling us. Either way, I'm sure this will corrected before the next DDI update @Incenjucar Off hand I can't think of any 4E class that has gotten a simple-weapon-focus treatment. This does give some nice alternatives seeing as people will be more comfortable staying...

I get this feeling we'll see a change to the Order Adept, but not the Animal Master. Maybe I'm just being pessimistic. And yeah, I remember a few months back they released those surveys that asked if the separation of DM and player resources into Dungeon and Dragon respectively, should be done...

Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (The Iron Wolf Barbarians) This is how to write an article. Decent fluff that expands elements of the PoL/core world (if that's your thing) and then a theme with encounter power swaps like the Dark Sun themes. Kudos WotC.

Here's an odd question: Practiced Killer (Assassin Multiclass) multis you into Assassin . . . or specifically the Executioner? Or Both? It specifically limits you to an Executioner skill training, but ends there. There reason I ask is because the Assassin (which hasn't been renamed oddly) is...

Twilight Vampire theme.

Woulda liked to have seen maybe a 3rd option for the non-weapon users-striker and that poor, poor Vampire. Vampires are. . . drained of options as it is.

Well you could always have both. Your multiclassing into Paladin. I mean, yeah, you'd spend another feat, but it's not out of the question.

Looks like I'm sending another email. I forgot to mention I thought gaining a permanent at-will aura seemed . . . cheesy. I know we discussed it a bit on here and it's not super great, but I just don't like it. If you're a fighter not MC'd into anything already, why not? Added penalties (granted...

I remember when this thread was a cool thread about hybrids and multiclassing. This thread sold out.
