If the crit effect is a status effect like knocking prone or doing ongoing damage (jagged dagger), will those still take effect on a non-damaging power? (Hypnotism in my case)

Sanction everyone, then use decree of khirad to make them all attack each other... and take the sanction damage. Warlock in general is a very good hybrid. Eldritch strike is a superb melee basic attack, and complements all defender classes very well - especially when using the CON based version.

At least it's on time

Headsman's chop adds on a hit, not on a damage roll - so it works with Brutal Barrage, but not with Cleave.

Regarding exporting... The online character builder had a hidden export function before they added it officially. If you go to vecna.wizards.com instead of the normal way, there is a debug tab. There will probably be something similar for the adventure builder. Should be able to figure out...

I understand why people get up in arms about piracy. This is different though. I wouldn't be surprised if most people who use the cbloader are paying DDI subscribers, and just find it more convenient. It may be illegal, but there is no moral argument to be made... and honestly I don't see why...

Missed deadlines are the mother of criminal innovation.

Disappointed with shadar-kai. I would have much preferred either con or cha (paired with either dex or int) - both for flavor reasons and class pairings. I'm happy about all the others, though it would have been nice to see int/con gnomes for oldey-timey sake.

Wild talent from Dark Sun? Sorta?

I'd rather have themes along this vein than new classes. Shapeshifter theme instead of changeling, shadowtouched instead of shade and shadarkai, revenant as a theme instead of race. Tiefling and probably eladrin would also work well here.

Pre-errata, primal eye would add intelligence modifier to damage for ranged basic attacks. This meant that a artificer|seeker had ability score compatibility and implement/weapon compatibility - use a crossbow for everything. Now, there's very little to recommend adding seeker. Also, genasi...

I don't think it's going to change without some essentialization to the classes. Marks, curses, and quarries are so much of a needless PITA that if those classes get reprinted, I'd expect them to be reworked into the essentials defender aura and essentials striker damage bonus. The only...

Thief used a ritual. Problem solved.

I really want to use Stone Blood with the following cheese: Paragon Path: Master of Flame Feat: Enlarge spell Feat: World serpent's grasp Feat: Energy admixture: thunder Feat: Resounding thunder Implement: Weapon of Summer For a area burst 4 slow. If you hit again next turn, slow+prone...

It's in the CB now.

I really would like it if Wizards would ditch sexual dimorphism for some of the weirder races. Why do there have to be male/female shardminds and wilden? I could have sworn Thri-Keen used to be exclusively female, and Muls used to be exclusively male. Dragonborn could have been more interesting...

The more I think about this, the more I disagree. Shadar-kai, shades, tieflings, devas, revenants, and even goliaths... they all could have been done as feat chains or (preferably) themes a la dark sun. Shardminds and wilden are substantively different from the standard races.

If it's this one: Avenging Resolution Heroic Tier Prerequisite: Avenger, oath of enmity power Benefit: When you attack a target of your oath of enmity with a weapon attack, treat all rolls of a 1 or 2 on the damage dice as though the result were a 3 on the die. You're out of luck...

If it's not living forgotten realms, a Paladin of Madness and Star Pact Warlock makes perfect sensse. LFR doesn't allow evil gods.

It looks pretty good. I prefer the essentials way where most attacks are basic attacks, modified by some kind of stance or other power. I think that'd work perfectly for modern. No matter how the mechanics work, I think the layout would be cleaner if each new class/profession started on a new page.
