Xoc looks over at Raiyek. "Don't let them fell you so quickly - that's little more than a scrape! Get back up and fight, while I help our rogue with the new intruder." Minor: Use Inspiring Word on Raiyek, who regains surge+1 hp Inspiring Word - additional healing (1d6=1) Move: Move to E5...

Xoc lets his eyes adjust to the darkness, and swings at the hooded figure with newfound resolve. "I don't miss twice, friend." Attack and Damage rolls for Viper's Strike (1d20+6=22, 1d10+4=13) - hits Cloak 2's AC 20 (forgot concealment again, arg!) for 13 damage. If Cloak 2 shifts before...

Kruk: everything in the aura is concealed, which gives you a -2 to all attack rolls to attacking anyone within the aura (concealment rules in PHB). If you're flanking, the +2 from combat advantage will cancel out the -2 from concealment. However, what I don't know is how difficult terrain...

Xoc charges into the room, throwing himself at the nearest cloaked figure. Okay, here goes. Xoc moves to C3 and uses Opening Shove. If hits, Cloak 2 is pushed to A3, and one ally I can see may shift 2 squares. Attack Roll for Opening Shove (1d20+6=15, 1d10+4=5) Note - forgot to subtract...

"Wait for me, comrades!" Xoc says as he runs along behind the others, drawing his weapon and preparing for the worst. Sorry I haven't been around, I lost internet for a couple of days =(. I see we've abandoned the stealthy approach, lol. It'll be good to finally get some combat action, if it...

I'm not exactly Captain Perception, but I guess it couldn't hurt. Get in there and stealth it up, you taffers, and good luck. Perception (1d20-1=13)

Agreed. PHB2 is so close we might as well start approving PHB2 characters, let them play around in the tavern, whatever. It's 4 days away, there is no way that any PHB2 character is going to successfully get into an adventure and engage in combat before the thing gets approved, since we already...

"Well, I suppose we should search the body and then drop it off with the authorities, as you said." Xoc looks in dismay down at the corpse, and reluctantly searches it. "Yeck, that is a particularly nasty way to send a message."

Ack, I totally forgot Grim is trained in Stealth - I guess my subconscious thought a bugbear dual-wielding bastard swords = not stealthy. Forgive me!

After handing Georg the ring, Xoc ponders its usefulness. "Sounds like an item that some of our sneakier compatriots could use. As for our lead, I agree, a trip to that shop is in order. Should we approach using our usual tactics? Because I can think of a certain someone..." - Xoc looks over at...

I will happily volunteer to be the first to be recombobinulated. When I was making my character I spent so much time trying to figure out all the mechanical stuff (my first time doing D&D ever, so it was confusing as heck) that I decided to save time and reuse an old backstory I made up for an...

Okay, so someone who needs a +2 should step in - I feel pretty okay with my +8 to Diplomacy. If no one steps in today I'll start chatting the gnome up again and take the +2.

I don't see why we should bother to make it any more complicated than +1/+2/+3 at 5/15/25 or whatever. I don't think we really need an entire two paragraphs on our Character Creation page talking about how our Expertise feat changes randomly at level 5 to give damage bonuses, or how the...

We will have to see what the judges say. Honestly, I haven't even been in a combat encounter yet, and I already feel like I'm capable of looking over and approving character sheets - I mean really, it's not a hard process, just a time consuming one. We don't necessarily want to push people into...

"I agree...getting that ring away from him should make our lives much easier." Xoc walks up to the captive, takes a knee and looks the Gnome in the eyes. "All right, here's the thing. You see that gargantuan Bugbear over there? He'd like nothing better than to throw you on a spit over a fire...

Xoc bursts into an energetic sprint, grinning menacingly as he runs. "I've got longer legs than you, little gnome." Athletics + 8 =IC is down! Wow, lots of posts since I checked it last night. I'm already 4th in the initiative order! I guess that's what I get for sleeping in. Okay, so...

Xoc gives Kruk an enthusiastic slap on the back. "Hah, that'd look nice and ominous mounted over a fireplace, eh Kruk? You can have the head, but I'm staking my claim to the rest - imagine how much steak that would be!" Obviously enthralled by his own idea, Xoc pulls out a small journal and...

Xoc finishes the last of his tea and stands up. "Well then, Corporal, I believe we shall take our leave of you and begin our mission - we won't trouble you with the details of our investigation, as I am sure you have much work to attend to. We will be in touch soon. Good day." Xoc walks...

Honestly, I am so new to D&D that I couldn't tell you if the power as WotC wrote it (which I am interpreting as 4 attacks) is overpowered or not. If it is game-breaking, then the solution is to nerf. If it's great but not game-breaking, my vote would be to keep it. Some of the threads I've...

Well, I think most everyone is in agreement that Rain of Blows is overpowered if it is four attacks. I don't see why people care what WotC originally intended - if it's broken, it's broken, and WotC hasn't and won't fix it or rule either way, so we are on our own to make an official L4W...
