Doesn't prone alter this a bit? I mean, you can actually stand in a square with a prone creature, right? Of course if it was an enemy, they would get the OA... Pretty sure I read that in the Compendium somewhere...

I don't understand how a close burst 1 would *not* affect a flying creature that is 1 square in front of you and 1 square up... The Compendium states that a burst goes in all directions, affecting all squares up to the limit stated by the power. Unless the power states specifically that the...

Hmm, another quick question - Vicious Assault says it works on a melee attack. Whirling Frenzy doesn't technically identify itself as a melee attack - it says its a close burst 1. I'd tend to favor giving it to the player anyway, because it does say in Whirling Frenzy's description that you...

Got a Barbarian in our new campaign doing some amazing damage, IMHO. He's using an encounter power called Whirling Frenzy followed up by a theme power called Vicious Assault. I was looking at these 2 powers and while WF seemed pretty straightforward, I'm not sure VA is being used correctly...

I'd like to offer a dissenting view here... As with a Rending weapon (which I don't believe has been nerfed yet), how often does the multiple crit rolls event actually happen? Point is, an event that would probable be remembered by a player as one of the "best things ever" is reduced to just...

We're at level 5 in our current campaign (seems to be going much faster than our first 4e campaign - maybe we're just more used to it now), and I have a question about my lev5 BattleCleric. I just picked up Divine Castigation for my Daily. What I want to know is if, since I have a reach weapon...

Nope, we're not playing Dark Sun. We're in Forgotten Realms, but as I said, its nearly a magic free world, at least as far as the items go. Its still fun playing with our group. This is our 2nd campaign, first one lasted 3 years and its a good bunch of guys, I just wish the DM wasn't so gung ho...

We're not allowed to make anything of our own...

I guess as a player, and not a DM, I'm feeling this from the other side... I played D&D, very early on, then didn't play it again until our first 4e campaign (that was about 3 years ago). It was always nice, adventure, kill things, roleplay, find really cool magic items and use them... Not...

Okay, point taken. Question then - so in most games for the people involved in this message thread, if a PC is adjacent to a melee capable opponent, to use a potion they would have to: Move action - shift 1 to avoid an opportunity attack Minor action - remove potion from pack Minor action...

But that's not RAW or RAI... Then every player who tried to use any potion would have to use 2 minor's to get and drink a potion....ugh. :(

Oh no - our players were only allowed to use dominate according to the actual rules...

You guys should play in our campaigns. The DM says when his creatures dominate a player, they get a full run of all actions and effects. One time our barbarian got dominated, moved to our paladin, popped a daily power, critted, then got a second attack off the crit. Dropped the paladin in one...

That won't be allowed. Magic will only be given out as the DM sees fit. Period. I will look into rituals, since my Battlecleric gets the ritual caster feat for free. A night ambush was our very first encounter in this campaign. I just don't want to see my Battlecleric lose the "battle" part...

Hey gang. We started a new campaign this last Saturday at our local library and I think I need some advice. I decided to play a Half-Elf BattleCleric. Problem is, after we actually started the session, some "surprise" rules were put into effect, with no discussion about them with the group...

A few things spring to mind from 2 of our current running campaigns: Once on a boat, we had to fight some skeletons along a shoreline. Many of our party had no ranged powers at all so I handed my rope to our fighter and told him to lasso a skeleton, which, making his check, he did, then...

We run that house rule in our campaign at the local library. The DM argues that no matter how good your character is, they could still conceivably fail, even on a trivial, menial task. Not just attack rolls...Hence, the 1 as an automatic fumble, even if 1 plus your stat beats the DC. It does add...

He is a Good Male Eladrin Bladesinger, Level 8. He claims he's going to use an item, "Hat of Disguise" to keep the Good and Lawful Good characters in the party from knowing that he is a Lich. I looked at this item. Its a standard action to use, but there is no limits on it whatsoever? Ugh...

Hmm, I missed that part. Why does he not benefit? Thanks.
