    Mount related, Find Steed makes your steed's Int at least 6. Does that give it it's own set of actions (aside from having a joint move together)?

    D&D 5E Warlock/Cleric Best of all Worlds

    The key word is the "or" in to cast spells you know or have prepared from classes with the Spellcasting class feature sorcerer + warlock = few spells known wizard + warlock = 44 spells known cleric/druid + warlock = :lol: A toned down version I would reword as "to cast spells you know and have...

    D&D 5E Warlock/Cleric Best of all Worlds

    I'm having a hard time swallowing the "cleric knows his whole spell list so I can cast any of those spells in the warlock slots because 'he knows them'". Please elaborate on your justification.

    D&D 5E D&D Next Blog - Wizards Like to Roll Dice Too

    What was the concensus on the following concept? Both attacker and defender simply have a bonus. Attacker chooses to either roll 1d20 or take 11, the defender chooses the other. The reason it's 11 and not 10, is for the math to work out. Do the math yourself if you don't believe me. 3.5 style...

    Echoes of Thunder, Exponential damage

    This discussion has been most enlightening. I agree that both interpretations (at least 1 attack hits for a given power, for each hit add the cumulative damage bonus) and roll the single damage roll. Both interpretations lead to linear damage boost which is comforting. On the other hand the...

    Echoes of Thunder, Exponential damage

    I agree that this reading would make it a linear progression, as 2n < 2n^2+n for n>1. Having a linear growth would be in line with what WotC is trying for. Yet still I can see room for the initial interpretation.

    Echoes of Thunder, Exponential damage

    Echoes of Thunder Benefit: When you hit with any thunder attack power, you gain a +1 bonus to damage rolls until the end of your next turn. The bonus increases to +2 at 11th level and +3 at 21st level. Let's say you have an AoE thunder spell that targets 10 foes. Next turn they are all still...

    Penalty to saving throw : Stunning until the end of encounter?

    remember that Orb of Fickle Fate has a save ends where most of your feats don't apply to that save. Thus if you use Fickle, the monster can save from that, thus opening the door to a possibility of saving from the original condition. Pherenic crown adds another -1 to -3 I think. Cunning sword...

    What feats need to be added to the game?

    That's the purpose of the PHB2 background. You choose 1 of 3 options, +2 in a skill, a skill becomes a class skill, learn a language. Learning 1 language is not worth a feat.

    Best of the Best - Strikers.

    This pole was slightly biased. You only offered iconic builds w/o offering contenders like the tempest fighter which would have competed with the TWF ranger. There is an entire class of builds called feychargers that outdamage any ranger. I'd even go as far as to say that the lowest standard...

    The "Bubble"

    Keep in mind that by late heroic and on most monsters have reach so knocking them prone and stepping back 1 does nothing to them except make them waste a move action.

    Beast Master lazy question

    Certian powers let both attack simultaneously(synchronized strike and partnered savaging), but they share the same pool of actions, namely that of the ranger from which the companion pulls and uses actions. Other than moving (specified that they both move with only one move action spent) the PC...

    Healing Hands + Devoted Paladin = uber healing?

    I'll give you that. For a paladin trying to be a better healer these 2 feats are very efficient.

    Best of the Best - Strikers.

    While it is true that the warlock and ranger can only curse/quarry the nearest target, this is not the core of how these 2 classes form the polar ends of striker examples. The ranger has the most multi-attack powers (arguably the core of high DPR) thus if the ranger (assume TWF version) can get...
