    Amazon delay notice :(

    I got the same BS e-mail today. Its really my own fault, I stopped pre-ordering video games from them because they could never ship my video games on time. I guess their incompetence is more systemic than I originally thought.

    Cha why priests can live without it (Long)

    I have to disagree. More cha = more turn attempts and those turn attempts could be converted into all kinds of things like Maximized flame strikes and god knows what else with the right feats.

    Cha why priests can live without it (Long)

    Being underwhelmed by the priest at first glance I was playing with some builds for a melee plate wielding priest when I realized I could run a cha 10 priest and it would hardly matter to me. The fact is very few priest powers use CHA at all and for those that do, it ussually makes only the...

    Why don't clerics get Shield proficiency?

    The only material components that exist are for rituals and in the description for implements it says that a cleric holding OR wearing an implement can benefit from it. So again you don't have to have a free hand to use your implement.

    Why don't clerics get Shield proficiency?

    For the cleric I think a lot of it depends on the race you choose. For example if I take a Dwarven Cleric I am proficient in the warhammer but not the war maul. This gives me a +2 to hit (very important to a melee cleric). Then I spend my feat on light shield giving me +1 to AC and +1 to my...

    Second Implement

    I see no problem with this if I was your DM I would let you DW your staff and your wand or orb and use the encounter effects from both. This just doesn't seem to be anywhere near game breaking.

    Musings on the skill system

    You said what I was thinking. Background should be however the hell I learned how to wield the very tapestry of creation with my very mind to produce the base elements of creation out of thin air. -5 to all enemies saves imo.

    Lots of statistics from the Monster Manual

    I agree I like to build some encounters where the players choices really shine and others where they are severely hampered.

    The reason the books feel incomplete

    The reason the books feel incompleate Some are saying that the books feel incomplete some are saying duh, its the first 3 books not years of them. I have to say that in my opinion these are the most "incomplete" for 2 reasons. #1 Every class has its own huge spell list now. Go look at your...

    Cleric AoE Powers?

    Thats how I read it. The Wizard Fire Shroud encounter ability also says Enemies in burst even though most of his powers say All Creatures in burst or area or whatever so I would say that it is a definite and intended difference. I remember in the Everquest RPG game there was a metamagic feat...

    Does anyone actually need the DMG?

    Warhammer Quest was a DM-less DnD like game. In the rules it also had a section on how to run games (and campaigns) with a DM. By your reasoning the next iteration of warhammer quest will just be a book on how to LARP.

    Power sources. What's the point?

    Unless I'm smoking crack some of the rituals are dependent on your power source.

    Impressions: most awesome class?

    I think in the long run the ranger is going to out damage the rogue. Just from a baseline the ranger is using a d10 instead of a d4 or a d6. That effects every single x[w] power and every single attack. The rogue is going to do more damage when he has combat advantage but is he going to have...

    4ed PDFs - Are you still getting the books?

    I hate PDF's I can't even imagine trying to play the game with only PDF's. Im sure I will probably end up with multiple copy's of the PHB also before this is all over since I have for every edition since 1st.

    Intimidate ..too good?

    Then again if they surrender and are not restrained who says they don't change their minds and pick up a sword the moment the PC's turn their backs to deal with their still fighting buddies?
