I love leader types, not because they do damage, but because with the right combos, make your fighter an almost pure striker. A warlord with a greatspear does well enough, especially with Commmanders Strike and a huge Barbarian. Not that Barbarians need a lot of help anyway, but why not if I...

Do I need line of sight for Healing Word and such other healing powers? Sammy

I will introduce them to my group and see what they think. As a DM, I like what you have here. Good ideas and solid powers at first glance. OK, you've done Arcane, wheres the Divine at? Sammy

I was actually using the Nightworm Fortress module. I will now tone down a few things, cause thats a deadly and frustrating combo. Almost lost the Swordmage and the fighter in the group. Sammy

Thanks guys. Don't know why I missed all that. Sammy

I wanted to be sure I was doing this correct. A weakened character that hits an insubstantial target does 1/2 for weakened and 1/2 again for insub, or 1/4 damage. Right or no? Sammy

So a druid in wildshape needs one of those powers to use a "basic melee attack" in wildshape?

I was reading Claws of Retribution, and it says I can make a melee basic attack as an opp attack. What is the druids basic attack while in wildshape? The wildshape power says you drop anything you are holding, so it can't be a weapon. Did I miss something in the reading of wildshape? Sammy

My swordmage has a +4 Broadsword of Summer (dungeon delve, page 119). The sword has a property that states: “The weapon deals extra 1d8 fire damage when it hits.” 1- When I use a power that does damage to an adjacent creature/enemy to target, do I add that extra damage in also? (Acid Burst...

My Goliath player took the Stoneblessed p path, and gains a reach of 2 with melee attacks. He also has a power that is close burst 1. Does his new reach affect this? I didn't think so, as well did he, but we wanted to be sure. Sammy

Can my players spirit companion benefit from "Elven Accuracy"? I told him no until I asked here. Sammy

I asked WOTC CS this: Customer (Brett Sampson) 03/20/2009 08:06 AM If my shaman is immobilized or slowed, does my spirit also suffer the same effects? The spirit calling features says it takes a move action when I do, so I thought that if for some reason I do not, or can not, move, my spirit...

The spirit power says that when I take a move action, that my spirit moves the same speed I have. So, am I right when I think that if I don't- or can't (immobilized, etc)- move then my spirit can't move either? Sammy

Nice work. Just some encouragement to keep going, I am interested in this and what else you come up with. Sammy

Is a "mark" and the abilities to curse, oath, and quarry all a form of "marking"? If a target is "marked", can I also Curse it also, without taking away the original mark? Sammy

OK, I admit I am confused on how the spirit companion works. I know the power you call it with says close burst 20, and that it can move your speed when you move. Does this mean that I can direct it all over the place, as long as I can see it? My first read through made me think that it...

If a PC is "Immobilized" and uses a power that lets them move, what happens? Do I disregard the movement part ofthe power, or can I not use the power? Sammy

My point is that I see that classess have their places, but it still comes down to how you build it. My swordmage is straight damage (the magic items help, of course), yet my friends version of a teleporting madman is more defender as it is written. I just wish I could change the Aegis from...

I have DMed a few swordmages, and yes, they are not designed to be a striker, but a odd defender. One player had an Eladrin swordmage and took lots of the teleporting powers. He would always "pop" everywhere, and he was the assaulting. Mark a baddie 2 away, let the baddie attack a friend, pop...

Perhaps make it 1+CH modifier distance, and the damage should be unmodified. I love Warlords and have done 2 so far, and I think this at will is close to what they have been doing. The utility seems like a level 10 ( I think thats the right level for that utility- after 6th) to me. Sammy
