Depending on the class of course, but usually I will go with 16, 16, 12, 12, 10, 8. Especially if the secondary stat for the class is Dex or Int (say for my gnome Feylock). AC and reflex defense are just too important. If I want an 18 pre-racial (say the race doesn't give a bonus to the prime...

I'm assuming you can save monsters you have built to reuse later? Assuming that is the case, will it be possible for 3pp's to release their monsters in the same format? Eg When you buy a copy of Goodman Games Critter Cache's (say), as well as the pdf, you also get a (XML?) file ready to be...

I am very glad to hear this. I never really understood the appeal of exclusivity, and I look forward to more people being able to experience these awesome adventures.

How about if the PCs are only the personality. They are some form of bodyless entitiy that needs to take possession of a corporeal creature to actually be able to accomplish anything. When they take over a body, they are limited to the skills and abilities that that body has, while they retain...

This is great news, I was hoping for something like this. I hope by "edit monsters" they mean I can automatically add or subtract levels from an existing monster to bring it to where I want it for the encounter. I hope they go one step further, and actually make it an encounter builder, so I...

Thanks Everyone! Thanks guys for your very informative posts. I think I'll just stick to running my own home game, and give the LFR a miss. I have never been that big a fan of FR anyway, and I have enough stuff to run anyway. Now, just need to get my players signed up. Any idea what incentive...

Thanks for your prompt and helpful answers Glyfair. I have a couple more questions, 6. Can I run LFR adventures without being part of the LFR campaign? I doubt my PCs even know LFR exists, let alone care about taking their characters to other games etc. As far as they know, I would just be...

The offer of a free adventure finally got me to sign up to the RPGA and take the herald level DM quiz. But I still have a few questions, and since the website is atrocious if you actually want to find clear information, I am hoping someone here can help me. A short aside: If WotC are really...

I also got invited to take part. I'm interested to know if anyone else from Down Under was invited. I am getting the impression I may be the only one. I assumed the locked, private forums was so they could control who is actually posting, and so the posters would feel free to speak their mind...

I couldn't have said it any better myself. There are lots of good suggestions here for ways to damage the Avenger. I think I would go the other way, and just ignore him. As soon as the monsters work out that they can't hit him very well, and he doesn't really bring the damage, why not just...

I think this is the best solution. Puts the onus back on the Player. If he wants to continue the pin, he needs to work for it.

Yeah, you can use higher level monsters against PCs, I just don't think you should. As you say, the high proportion of higher level elites and solos are the number one reason that contributes towards the grind. I find that is a really lazy way to approach adventure writing. An approach I can...

Basically, yeah. But done well. To be honest, Dungeon Delve does sound like exactly what I am after, but I am loathe to trust WotC's adventure design given what I have read about them. Certainly the free excerpt did nothing to sway me to buy the book. A Level 8 ELITE in an encounter with Level...

What I would like to see are short (3 - 4 encounters) self contained adventures that I can easily drop into an existing campaign (either because they look cool, or my PCs need a bit more XP). Even better if they leave a few plot hooks hanging that I can spin into a larger part of the campaign if...

As others have said you need more options on your poll. I subscribed to Dungeon and Dragon, rolled them over into a Pathfinder AP subscription. I kept it through the first 3 adventure paths, before letting it lapse (along with all my Pathfinder subscriptions) at the end of the third. I never...

Or just check it out in the Character Builder. The trial version has all the heroic feats.

The problem I have with the crazy high prices of stuff in DnD is the disconnect I feel between my PC spending hundreds of thousands of gp on magic items (or at least walking around with gear "worth" that much), while his family / home village etc are basically poverty stricken dirt farmers. If...

I didn't mean do all 30 levels at once. More, do each module on the patron module. So the first module only goes into production when they reach the target. Then module 2 only goes into production when they reach their target etc. Of course, as you say, each module seems to take about 6 months...

What I would love is for a company to do something similar to Wolfgang's Open design, but specifically for 4th edition and specifically and adventure path, starting at level 1 and going all the way to level 30. This way each module is funded before it begins, and if support dries up, patrons...

I couldn't say it any better, so I'll just quote it again. What I would really like to see (and I've said this before, and I'll keep saying it in the hope they actually listen), is a proper encounter builder. One that allows me to change the level of the monsters up or down, and add a template...
