    Healing between encounters

    It's even more not worthless if someone uses their healing power at the end of an extended rest and the gm allows the to stack. (You ARE spending a healing surge at the end of an extended rest to regain hp, just you are using a power to do so...)

    Anthropomorphic Animal PCs!

    Eh, earlier I meant if you were going to introduce a race, it's kinda important to have a basic racial identity, backstory and the like. Although I find the cute/badass line above kinda funny as that gnome article basically said they are adding them cause gnomes are cute and funny. Ironicly...

    Anthropomorphic Animal PCs!

    I had a wizard who wielded a longsword made of darkness in his mouth when he polymorphed, that was pretty cool. More traditional equipment? Sometimes (often) just seems silly looking. However, in a dnd setting especially, using the "A wizard did it" clause for any magical equipment just works...

    Anthropomorphic Animal PCs!

    Scaven are totally furries. Also, irratating, stupid rats... Aside from that, Werecreatures are generally win, especially if they have 'free' shapechanging, cause that's just fun. It's wild shape for free and such. Though, I have played an awakened wolf monk and a friend has played a griphon...

    Most Valued Attribute

    Come to think of it, I've never put an 8 into con. I've also never put more than 10 in it unless I need a 13 for proficiencies either, so 10 con in my ranger, fighter, and paladin. But then again, con is more valuable to a fighter then int, the traditional dump stat for such characters. But...

    D&D 4E 4e Constitution - what a waste of time !

    Running out of surges in one fight? You have that many ways to actually USE a surge in a combat? Must be leader heavy. Plus, anyone who gets TPK'd for pressing on when out of surges should have notice that the day stops when you are out. Take your long rest and fix the problems that come up. And...

    Pets and Racial Bonuses

    Would this mean that your summon counts as your ally then? Lightning panther spirit makes the square your companion is in plus adjacent ones not count as difficult terrain for allies.

    Pets and Racial Bonuses

    Would you get things like Longtooth shifter's shifting bonus to damage with a ranger pet? How about a shaman one? Summons use your defenses so would you get your bonus to ac from the razorclaw shifting? Gnolls have that extra damage to people who are bloodied, will useing a pet or beast keyword...

    Cheater Dice? Why?

    One time, my group got the gm to roll a d20 with 1-10 on it twice vs a high ac team. It went on for several sessions. Also, with bad luck, I've not rolled above a 12 in dnd 4th ed on an attack roll for about 3 months strait. Usually 4-8 on it. I do tend to roll decently on pointless rolls...

    Worst 4th Ed Class

    The wizard definitely stands out as the only class I've never seen someone enjoy playing. Even online, most things about wizards are "OMG Orb+Sleep=murder" or the like. In the event you aren't a orb wizard and didn't take sleep, you spam your at wills and hope enough minions are lined up so you...

    Can one of the lead designers of D&D please stand up and clarify "Rain of Blows"?

    Tempest fighters with an urgosh do well with that attack as well, d12 and all. Plus, 15 dex is the prereq for armor spec in heavy armors, so the stat isn't wasted.

    Highest level you've played

    Started really in 3.x Highest level not one-shotted. A 20 legetemetly (Straight Astral Deva). Odd ecl rules wankery would put another character I had much higher then 20 (Dire Weretiger feral winged elf. Monk 6). A vaild in the rules character in a one shot I had was 36. 4th ed? I think I'm at...

    does the MM include PC race choices?

    The official character creator thinggy you can download from wizards has all the mm races in it and the little legal/house ruled indicator stays legal when you choose one. However, my take is that all those are incomplete/beta races for player purposes. Gnomes specifically were referenced as...

    Tell me about the Beastmaster Ranger in play...

    I'm trying out a beastmaster with high str and wis and ok con. Chain prof, Dwarven urgosh and that feat that lets you attack as an AOO anyone who swings at your beast. Urgosh: +2 prof d12/d8 weapon that also gives you +1 ac and lets you pick 2 handed exploits if you want as well. Figured it's a...

    Magical Staff Weapons as Implements

    Would this mean that you can not take weapon focus:staff to get bonus damage as a wizard or druid for your spells/invocations?
