    D&D 4E 4E Monk & Melee touch

    The proficiency bonus is only added on powers that have the Weapon keyword. Monks are implement users, so their powers do not have the Weapon keyword. The Weapon Focus feat does not require a power to have the Weapon keyword, so it works when using a weapon as an implement.

    Abyssal Ghouls and Overlapping Auras

    PH1 page 275: "Unlike bonuses, penalties don't have types. Penalties add together, unless they're from the same power." Many people take this to mean same source, not just same power.

    Paladin/Sorceror Hybrid - 3 in 1 implement/weapon?

    You could use a weapon that acts as a holy symbol, such as a Crusader's Weapon. Note that some holy symbol weapons would not work, such as the Weapon of Evil Undone, which specifies that it can only be used for divine powers. Arcane Implement Proficiency only works for arcane powers, so taking...

    Acrobatics only makes it so you do not fall prone. That does not help if you are already prone. It would have to say that you land on your feet like the items do.

    Swordmage/Wizard (Summoner) - Doable?

    A hybrid Swordmage|Wizard would work better. Both classes do not lose much from hybriding and you would be able to take a paragon path. Take the Hybrid Talent feat to gain Swordmage Warding. You can have your pick of whatever powers you want from both classes, and use the implements of both...

    The entire Dragon magazine is added to the CB. It is not based on the date of each article. So you should be asking "Why would a Feb. 2 update not include a Jan 29 magazine?". I think they need more time than that to get things into the CB. Each article goes through changes before the...

    Other than hybrid, are there any way to make an axe into Wizard implement?

    Have him use a Frost Fury weapon from AV2 instead. The Battlecrazed weapon only deals extra damage when you hit, so it would not be added to secondary damage from zones, walls, etc. The Frost Fury weapon's extra damage applies to everything.
