Shouldn't the result for an all out search be the highest passive perception+10+2 for every character helping him? Seems in line with the aid another rules.

"Maximum Damage: Rather than roll damage, determine the maximum damage you can roll with your attack. This is your critical damage. (Attacks that don’t deal damage still don't deal damage on a critical hit.)" Extra Damage: Magiv weapons and implements, as well as high crit weapons, can increase...

The AC of monsters doesn't quite increase by 1 per level. That's why the monster advancement formula isn't very accurate outside a 5 level range or so. I actually believe that a character who puts all his stat increases in his main stat (rather likely) and obtains a +6 weapon by 30th level will...

It's not a bad idea to obtain the twin strike power as a rogue, either through paragon multiclassing or picking it as the extra power if you're a half-elf. While you can only apply sneak attack once per round, making two attacks would certainly increase the odds of one hitting. Also, all rogues...

Only thing I've seen that accomplishes this is an epic feat, and if the size difference is great (don't remember exactly how great).

The "Miss:" entry is only included in the KotS character's ability because it would take up more space to describe the "Reliable" keyword than just note that the ability isn't expended on a miss. I did see some other things in the PHB that would need errataing. I believe there is one ranger...

The Darkfire ability seems to be a ranged attack. Wouldn't that mean that it provokes opportunity attacks? If that's the case, it's quite a bit less powerful for a rogue type character (well, you can sneak attack with ranged weapons too). The monster race I'd pin as overpowered is the bugbear...

That's a nice one. Paladins can also use Eyebite for a great effect. Wonder if that's intentional synergy, hmm?

If an Immediate Reaction trigger after the whole triggering action has been resolved, the Flame Jet trap previewed on the wizards site is far less dangerous as it is extremely unlikely that anyone will ever be hit by it. You simply stroll down the hall and after you finish your move action, the...

Funny that they chose to include a picture that is, in my opinion, rather pointless, when they didn't have enough room to include one of the character's actual abilities! Talking about the half-elf's multiclass ability, of course. Granted, art is important, but I think showcasing the rules...

I honestly don't believe that you need that many at-will powers to make your choices intresting every round in a battle. Though I think that the burden of creating intresting choices partly lies with the DM using some kind of tactics for the enemies, requiring you to do some tactical movement to...

I believe he's referring to that the target must be marked for the fighter to be able to perform the interrupt attack. Something that is not the case as far as I can see.

I think a healing surge system would also work in D20 modern, but you would have to be crystal clear on the fact that healing surges and hit points do not represent actual physical injury, but rather points you can use to not die. In many more realistic RPGs, you stand a decent chance of getting...

In all honesty that book (with the name change) sounds a bit too much like a menu that you can just order up your magical items from. On the other hand, we have also heard that "Ye Olde Magick Shoppe" is gone, so I guess they hope for players to buy the book so they can nag their DM into giving...

Give me back my Dark Sun!!!

I think how fast a character runs out of healing surges depends largely on tactical choices. And not only from the players, but also from the DM. If the DM constant chooses to ignore marks and really push towards attacking the weaker characters, the paladin will most likely have no problem with...

Though honestly, Hide in Walls sounds like a pretty nifty ability. OT I'm considering getting rid of the screen. It kinda goes hand in hand with using miniatures; the screen constantly gets in the way, and I have to look over or around it. Would be nice to have reference sheet of certain...

Something like this? Take note that it is not official, it's my own creation entirely. Tremendous Heave Fighter Attack 1 Daily • Martial, Weapon Standard Action Melee weapon Primary Target: One creature of your size, smaller than you, or one size category larger. Attack: Strength vs. Reflex...

An uncapped adventuring day may be a good idea in some groups/campaigns, but I hardly think it should be the norm. It is simple to make up a house-rule (ain't it always?) that goes something like: "Every time you take a short rest you regain a healing surge." That way you can still pressure the...

Icosahedron, ruler of everything's failure and success.
