I have found myself doing this arbitrarily, especially in situations where the PCs have a guaranteed win, and all they are doing is going through the motions of killing. Although I'm curious has to how you would be able to change the enemy's health in a reliable way so that they die before...

Well the PHB (at least the 1st ones sent out) doesn't list the "Miss" as part of the power. So I thought the OP may not have known, hence thinking the ability was weak.

If I remember right, the PHB was erratad to read "Miss: Brute Strike is not used." So you basically have a daily that's guaranteed to hit or not be used. In my opinion, for a level 1 ability, that's just dandy.

I think it's rather fun. The initial damage is comparable to Eldritch Blast, making me lean towards making this an encounter. I did have some questions though. -For the burst damage, does that mean it's a guaranteed hit to all creatures? -I see little motivation to dealing, say, 10 damage to an...

I can't give you any specifics, as I'm unfamiliar with your setting. However, one thing I've been doing since our 3rd game together (when everyone's face started freezing in boredom) was to make the environment highly interactive. While some of this is often my doing (pits, ranged maneuvers...

I added some more encounters/dailies to the second spoiler (now becoming my "work in progress" section for the time being). Please especially give input on the grenades... I like the direction they're going but I feel like I'm treading a line with them. Also changed the at-will Small Blade to...

While we haven't encountered this yet in my group, I would agree that a burst creates an even sphere. And it would make sense that a blast would just go a straight 5 feet. However, if an ability seems like it should or shouldn't use the 3rd dimension, then just fix the rules to say so. If your...

I'm not too sure if it would work, but have you checked the map making tools available online? Things like Autorealm and Cartographer allow you to make and print your own maps. I don't know if they have anything other than squares, but it's worth a look if you can't find someone.

Well, the balance I was going for was a psychic who controls a mechanized puppet. The puppet cannot act on its own, and there is more to the link between the puppet and its master than just strings (a sort of psychic connection). The idea for controlling the dead or other characters will...

I guess essentially, it is more of a construct than a traditional puppet. As for having line of sight, I'm still debating. If I had my way, I would say that it would require sight to at least 1 corner of the puppet's square, and each could share a movement (master moves 2, puppet moves 3)...

While sitting in a waiting room today, I came up with a few rough ideas for abilities. One of which was likes yours. Corpse Puppet The strings on one of your hands detaches from your puppet and work their way to a fallen enemy. You control target enemy (still unsure on how health and defenses...

Note: This class is currently undergoing a major revision. To see its progress, refer to the conversation between Kisanji and me, starting at post 11. And don't hesitate to give your input and ideas! I've been mulling over the idea of a puppeteer class for awhile now. I've never designed a...
