    Ranger > Warlock

    Thanks for pointing out the Fey power 'Curse of the Black Frost'. If everybody spends an action point and a couple of dailies and ends up shifting the enemy twice, the enemy will take lots of damage. Also, with Thudertusk Boar Strike (Ranger Attack 3, 4[W]+2dex), you can slide the enemy down the...

    Ranger > Warlock

    I didn't include curse/quarry, which further favors the ranger. Also, your calculations are wrong.

    Ranger > Warlock

    I didn't check every single monster, but a couple of us have checked and found no resistance to untyped damage. What they have more of instead is regeneration. The only special material I've seen is silvered weapons, which turns off the regeneration of some monsters. Sadly, there are lots of...

    Ranger > Warlock

    It's true that the ranger deals plain damage, which cannot be resisted by any monster in the MM, while the lock deals mostly fire damage, which some large fraction of monsters is either immune to, or highly resistant (20-30). The lock is infernal and doesn't get any teleports. The ranger gets...

    Ranger > Warlock

    If you have these two characters fight one another, the lock needs a 12 to hit and the ranger needs a 6 to hit. This lock targets mostly reflex, which is often not much lower than AC. He's got one encounter power (Diabolic Grasp) which targets Fort, which is the Ranger's weakest point. For that...

    Possible, but I have the depressing impression that a Ranger could keep up with at-wills and a couple of encounter powers...

    Ranger > Warlock

    I've rolled two toons, one infernal lock (with max damage I could do) and one archer ranger. Dual wield rangers have higher damage, but to make the comparison fair, I wanted ranged attacks on both. Of course the devil is in the details, but here are some quick numbers. At level 10, encounter...

    D&D 4E Battle of Pyres -- Bag o Rats 4e?

    LOL, I was looking at possible paragon classes for my ranger. Rangers are str/dex/wis, so I was gonna take multiclass cleric or multiclass rogue. Warpriest is an awesome paragon class for anyone. O_o S. Loisel

    Warlock, levels 1,10,20

    This is bound to be one of the first things they clarify. I like the star pact dude, you chose feats I didn't even know about (I chose my feats kinda randomly.) What bothers me as I browse the MM is that I find lots of monsters that are immune to fire, poison, etc..., and several more that have...

    Warlock, levels 1,10,20

    Hello, In the same vein as http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=228158 and http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=227877, here's a Warlock. I did this because I wasn't sure whether Warlocks were any good, and that's what I want to play. All told, I think they're a little better than I...

    Power Multipliers and Weapons

    No, I'm talking about strikers. Ranger has [W]=1d10 with a longbow. Possible, but I doubt the different locks have different powers, that would make the lock chapter much bigger than the other class chapters. Probably, the daily and encounter powers we know are good for all locks. Seb

    Power Multipliers and Weapons

    That's what I'm hoping. Those classes that have 2[W] encounter powers often also have 1[W] encounter powers at the same level, so maybe we were just "unlucky" and we still haven't seen the 2d10 encounter and 3d10 daily for the lock, and what we saw is the 1[W] power. It's also possible they...

    Power Multipliers and Weapons

    I'm not. All the other strikers have something similar. I'm just thinking that the warlocks may be lesser strikers than the other kinds of strikers. Yeah ok, but they're strikers. According to the rules as we know them... So, yes, warlocks are supposed to deal large amounts of damage to...

    Power Multipliers and Weapons

    This thread is a good catch, I think. We don't have the books but looking strictly at what we have, I'd say the warlock is getting gipped. We only have Witchfire to go on as an encounter power, but I sense that they were thinking 2[W]=2d6. I really hope that's not the case, because other...

    Steam guns and locomotives in d20?

    Hi guys, Is there a d20 source book with gear like steam guns and locomotives? I'm kinda thinking of running a classic D&D game with wizards and all, but with some steam power and maybe gunpowder (none of it will be portable, so characters will be using regular D&D gear most of the time.)...
