    LFR retraining

    Can I retrain ability scores in LFR? I made Charisma my highest and want to switch it with Strength at the next level. I'm at level 1, just completed one module.

    LFR quick question

    thanks - the guide is a bit confusing in that a few monsters (orcs, kenku) are allowed.

    LFR quick question

    As far as I can tell, I can play a Kobold in LFR. Am I missing something, or would this be OK? Thanks!

    spinnin deflection with a greatspear?

    Thanks for the advice, I'd houserule it as a DM, but this is a new LFR build, so I doubt it would fly. Hafted defense isn't optimal since I have to burn a feat, but it works. Thanks!

    spinnin deflection with a greatspear?

    I was hoping to use a greatspear as my primary knight weapon for my LFR eladrin. Would I qualify for the spinning deflection class feature? I'm trying to keep AC with plate, but use a two-handed weapon and find another AC boost.

    Dispair Deck selling separately?

    I love the idea of using the Dispair Deck in my current campaign. Anyone know if it will be sold separately, or do you have to pick up the boxset? I probably will pick up the full set, but it would be nice to have an extra set.

    Ravenloft - where is it and how do you get there?

    OK - original poster here. The Ship of Horrors was perfect to "get us to Barovia." I had them take off from a port near Fallcrest on a mission to locate the lost guild of the Lightbringers. Once there, they'll make contact with Ashlyn and I'll run I6 as using one of the 6 Strahd scenarios -...

    Ravenloft - where is it and how do you get there?

    I'm starting a 4e game using Expedition to Ravenloft. The main hook is that the PCs are seeking out the Lightbringers (or perhaps even the Knights of the Raven, not sure yet). The PCs occupations are scholars and each have a cool backstory as to how they chose their occupation. That said, I need...

    quick Dominate question

    If I had him fly into the pit, would he still get a save?

    quick Dominate question

    I successfully dominate a flying creature. Can I pull it into a spiked pit to take damage? I think I can, so long as the creature gets a save, correct? Thanks!

    Brain in a Jar protection

    I need to give my Exalted Brain in a Jar, leveled down to 9 for a hard fight for level 4 PCs, some protection against ranged attacks/spells. Any ideas? The terrain is a swamp. thanks! dwf

    Holy Symbol as Mage Implement?

    thanks for the suggestions - I think I like the idea of reflavoring, so I think I'll picture an orb as being small enough to weave into a bracelet which has lots of smaller beads to look like a symbol of Sehanine.

    Holy Symbol as Mage Implement?

    For story reasons related to my character, who is a mage, I'd like to use a holy symbol for an implement. Can I still get the same proficiency bonus (+?) I would for using a wand, staff, or orb? I'd try to equip and see in character builder, but my DDI ran out. Thanks in advance, I'm hoping to...

    In the Works: February and Beyond

    Maybe including vampires as playable along with Shadowfell is a way of not having to come out with the Ravenloft update WoTC mentioned at GenCon - unless that's still on the way? I can't imagine it would be.

    Monsters tossing PCs

    So I have a group of Arborean Terrors (Large Plants) that for story reasons I've like to have toss my PCs around. In short, they have a grab and immobilize ability so round 1 would be that, round 2 would be to toss a PC to another plant who keeps them grabbed and immobilized. There's more to it...

    What's in your DM Kit?

    I run my sandbox Chaos Scar campaign on a laptop so that always goes, but have yet to really settle on a kit I can keep together to run to games. Some of the things that generally make it in my bag, besides die and the rules compendium, is a dry erase board and markers, my monster vault and most...

    tile layovers for effects?

    That does, thanks. Wizard's must have just included some to FLGS owners in a recent mailing, then. I know mine didn't make it to Seattle.

    tile layovers for effects?

    My FLGS handed me a set of plastic tiles with various effects (lightening, acid, poison, etc) that can be cut out and laid over dungeon tiles. I'm sure I missed a discussion on here about them. Can anyone shed any light? They look like something Wizard's might have sent as a DM reward.

    new DM monster initiative tracking question

    In the case of this adventure, it is by design. For example, one of the encounters: First Wave includes 2 gravehounds, 2 zombie soldiers, and 4 zombie rotters. As written, you divide the monsters into two groups, then have them break into one of the 8 possible breach points. Its also a skill...
