That's a pretty nice solution. Have the player (or DM) roll the check in secret so only the DM sees the result, and if they don't get it opened immediately let them continue to work on it minute-by-minute until either it opens or they decide they're sick of it or run out of time.

The 20 cap is probably my favorite thing about this edition. That and super-chunky feats. :cool:

My memory may be fuzzy but wasn't "undead are immune to enchantment spells" the norm at one time? Sacred Bovines.

Not really happy with the return of the wall of text for what should be a simple combat spell, but it's certainly not a deal-breaker. Now instead of casters staring at their power sheets they'll be staring at the PHB. The 4e power format made everything clear-cut, which has its advantages and...

<snip> Updated downthread, in post #5. here

This map appeared in the 4e Neverwinter Campaign Setting, although some locations have been removed and others added, as well as the hex overlay. Highly recommend it as a sandbox campaign location.

I'd just like an option to buy the adventures for home campaign use without all the baggage of organized play attached, thanks. :erm:

Very nice, shame about that ink-intensive colored background though. Any chance on a no-background version?

I've been using a 22" widescreen touch screen, mounted on a monitor stand directly to the table, at my DMing seat for about 3 years now. About half my group brings a smartphone, PC, or tablet for google docs / DDI compendium access, but the great majority still use physical character sheets...

In my 4e game our houserule is that people who use aid another can contribute their +2 or their d20 result, whichever improves the task leader's result the most. It gets used pretty frequently.

I really don't get the response of "who cares about math?" The point is they've had two years to fix the math and for whatever reason it wasn't done. Yes, people who want to use a greataxe for flavor's sake will continue to do so, but if the math was fixed they wouldn't have to be gimping...

Sadly, Saevar the eladrin ladder-smith had to lay off two of his twelve employees due to reduced demand. Also at the risk of derailing your derail, that's quite the edition-warry quote. It's a little distressing that I've apparently been playing 4e wrong the last 5 years. I think my last 3...

Sex sells? (I kid, sorta)

Has "5e Modern" been mentioned yet?

I take it you didn't pick up any Sundering Adventures?

Seconding Neverwinter Campaign Guide. More adventure hooks per square inch than any book I've ever seen. Pretty easy to adapt it to a different world if you're not into FR, too.

I'm hoping <redacted> has "lazy" as a build option. (no, I'm not implying I know what <redacted> is, just hoping).

Ok, my confusion sprang from the fact that they're exactly the same mechanic, just used in different situations. Thanks. I seem to recall someone posting a list of the quantity of existing in-game saving throw effects that utilize each stat. Anyone have that handy? If I remember right the great...
