Gang, I was thinking about going with 2 weapon fighting with my Holy Avenger. I don't have any of the "offhand" type weapons like a double sword, axe, or the Urgrosh (like our DMs would ever allow that!). I do have a versatile weapon, so I'd lose 1 point of damage using 2 of them, one in each...

We have a Paladin in our 4e game that nobody, but nobody will let touch their dice for fear he will "taint" them like his obviously are. :) I used to have this stigma attached to me - so when we started a new 4e campaign, I wisely picked a Holy Avenger as my character, and chose a Craghammer...

Not sure about the exact definition, but the Compendium says you have the ability to ignore difficult terrain, and move through obstacles and other creatures. If you can do that, then what melee attack from an OA could hit you? Thanks.

Nope, I had just read this thread and while classical, instrumental, and soundtracks all have a lot to be said for them, something with *metal* in it seems appropriate too. During our last session, my Holy Avenger, using radiant skills such as Temple Of Light and Abjure Undead, and some timely...

and I can't quite grasp the concept of even having the AV...(and they are still adding new stuff all the time)...when you are not allowed to touch anything inside of it. :(

Seems to me though, that anyone trying to hit a phased target, by its very definition, would have to take a huge -penalty to hit. :)

No problem, and I do play a lot of video games. :) Anyways, I get your point about the slots - even though they are empty of magical items, doesn't mean they are empty altogether. We are going other directions with our group. We invaded a Thieves guild, fought through multi-levels and took it...

And this makes good sense to me. It strikes a fair balance. Some people mentioned high level items in earlier messages - keep in mind we were restricted from Artifacts and Wondrous items from the start of the game. At the rate of gold we're getting (48 gold from the last 2 large encounters), its...

I brought that particular subject up, and they didn't seem overjoyed with it... :(

S'mon, that all really makes sense to me. Thanks for the reply, and the reference. The 2 DM's and us 7 players sat down and discussed it Saturday, during the bi-weekly session. One of the points they brought up was that if a magic shop existed in a large town, with all these nice items, the...

Our DM did an interesting thing with these creatures in one encounter. He had a room with artillery, minions, and one sorcerous type. She had a kind of vault behind her open when we entered the room. The vault was filled with spheres. (they beat us there, it was part of the storyline). Each...

Gang, from all the replies, I gather that most DMs do not allow whole-sale buying of Magic items as is listed in the Adventurers Vault. and apparently the suggestions I made, as to magic shops in larger towns, and specific - to - char level items in those shops didn't go over too good. Ok...

Well, I just typed in a multi-paragraph reply to several things discussed here, but at 60 wpm, this site decided to log me out and I lost the entire message. Why would it kick you out with you typing in a msg? That's activity. :( I'm just not going to spend the time to do it again. Thanks...

Yes, I have to admit to that - we had just started playing, had a few encounters, racked up some GP, raised a level, etc,...and all of us PC's upgraded, updated, modded, etc,... At that time, no one told us we could NOT buy from the AV. When another player and I asked about Artifacts and...

Well, thanks to everyone who replied - you've all certainly give me a lot to think about! :) I guess I need to clarify some points here. Both these DMs are my friends, there's no antagonism, just some mild debate/disagreement. When I bought the item, I was in town, not in a dungeon. I agree...

Hi. We're currently running a 4e campaign, with 7 players. We're up to level 8 now. We have 2 people that are DM'ing - swapping out every few rounds, and running as a player when they are not DM'ing. We've had some issues with the DM's over items. During one encounter, we wiped a group fairly...

Well, since there seems to be so many differing opinions on this, I e-mailed WOTC about it. They said: "Thank you for contacting us. The Symbol of Divinity power allows you to use another Channel Divinity power, but it must be one that you have not used this encounter." So I guess that...

Hi. I'm fairly new to 4e, just having returned to D&D after not having played it sinc ethe mid/late 80's...so forgive me if my questions are self-evident. Let's say you had a vicious Greatsword +2. You wanted to go to a Craghammer +3. In a recent encounter, you acquire a +3 dagger. Your...

Ah, ok. Hmm, so where Divine Guidance and Abjure undead are encounter/standard actions, I guess that makes sense. Going back to Righteous Rage of Tempus though, what about it? I mean, it's listed as a minor and personal - so could you use it twice in one encounter? Thanks! :)

Woot! So I could hit an undead with Abjure Undead, use a Symbol of Divinity, then hit them with Abjure undead again? If that's correct, that's awesome! :)
