And yet people do buy CB which follows the same premise. Everyone had to agree to the terms that WotC set. They will update the CB every month if they can, but they may miss months. People click ok and then pay WotC. Then a month comes along where they dont get an update, and they fly into...

WotC has literally stood by the terms to which you agreed upon when you purchased it. If I tell a customer that I will usually deliver milk to their door the first Sunday of a month, but that I can't promise it to happen every month, and if I miss a month, I'll make sure they get the product...

95% of the stuff the PC's in my group need is in the CB. They don't seem to have any trouble making up a character, tweaking it in 5-10 mins, and then having a character ready to go. There's literally only a few things I needed to change or add, and it was really simple. I think the...

I dont agree with the idea of this being something that should be told to new people who post here. Whether or not, on average, a group is more right than another group doesn't matter. Its wrong to basically tell the group that they should probably just be quiet because that group probably...

The original post just looks like a big way to say "hey you, dont worry your pretty little head, just listen to the people who have been here longer" or "sigh, look at that cute little guy, doesn't he understand the people who have been participating more are talking, you should really listen"...

I give all of my PC's Expertise for free at 1st level. This way, they never have to agonize whether or not to take it, since *all* of the PC's really want to hit more often. With the change to the feats, I've just went ahead and gave them the extra part also. Yeah it makes the feat a little...

I've been doing experience by just having the PC's level up when I think its appropriate. This worked out really well for me, but some PC's have expressed they don't find it as fun. They enjoy it when they play and gain gold, magical items, *and* xp. Its almost like a commodity that they like...

Recently I was DMing a group through Keep on the Shadowfell and the PC's came across a Gelatinous Cube. One of the PC's, the barbarian, was grabbed and pulled into the Cube's space. While grabbed, she is dazed and takes ongoing 10 acid damage. Another PC, an eladrin swordmage, has a power...

I use the Character Builder and Dungeon magazine, and that's about it. I don't mess with the Monster Builder because personally I don't feel I need to. I run pre-made adventures and they usually have the stat blocks in them, and if I need a monster, I just use one from one of the MM's. Dragon...

I really like the Dark Sun books, so much that I am constantly rereading them over and over. I just started a new DS campaign also. I just assume that Dark Sun is so good because they already had practice with the other worlds. I like what they did with Eberron, and enjoy the setting for my...

If I were them, I wouldn't split it up. They would probably make less money if they were to do so, so it doesn't make sense to do it. Most people (in my opinion) get DDI so that they can update the Character Builder. Everything else is mostly just extra. So they would have to lessen the cost...

I hope so..? I don't understand why someone wouldn't want this. For any other race it doesn't make sense. You wouldn't have an Essentials Dwarf and a Non-Essentials Dwarf because the only difference is that the Essentials Dwarf gets to choose between two attributes for their second stat. But...

I started a new Dark Sun game last weekend, and I was definitely disappointed that the Character Builder wasn't updated, but I just jiggered it in the Character Builder and was able to have my PC's have everything they needed. One PC made a Mul. I just didnt give him a race. For ability...

I'll be running my group through The Vault of Darom Madar from one of the Dungeon Magazines. I'm going to run the adventure in the Dark Sun book, then this adventure, then transition into Marauders of the Dune Sea. Dungeon magazine has a few adventures in the magazine. I'm not sure if they...

I agree that there are a lot of feats out there, and so many that people would like to take. I rarely feel like I am able to take racial feats that I think are cool, let alone even some class feats. Instead, a lot of times, I'm taking mostly the ones that I feel like I almost have to take...

I actually totally disagree. I'd love for there to be more feats that are race specific. Since races are getting more stats that they are able to pick, more races are becoming more similar. I like this in that I want to pick a race, and still have whatever ability scores I want. The...

It says that Mages with Evocation use Constitution, where does this come into play? Do any of the wizard spells use Con for some of their effects?

I definitely agree that rerolling is great. It would make one of my players very happy to do so, since she thinks she has bad luck rolling. But I'm not sure all the PC's will be willing to give up one fourth of their hp's in order to do so. If it happened against one other PC, or even two...

I have a Swordmage PC in my Eberron campaign who will be receiving a gift from her mentor. I don't see any difference in me giving her a magical item as opposed to her finding it. As long as she's roughly the same power level, its all the same. I'm hoping she will cherish it a little more...

I think a lot of raiders and such do not necessarily care about the future, they think about the now. If things get bad, they just move onto the next area. I personally believe you are giving the average person too much credit. Most people who are adventuring, raiding, pillaging, etc are not...
