    WoTC in the Frying Pan

    ... I suggest re-examining your theory on Contract law there. I'm not fond of their pricing structure at all... but honestly... I just think that's foolish business planning. As for the delay... shrug. Hardly a violation of any notable legal duty I can spot. Oh, its been a number of years...

    Any word on 4e from the big names?

    Lets hope the GSL has express terms defining explicitly what a 'product line' is. And also that this particular definition, once declared, cannot be altered by future alterations of the GSL.

    Any word on 4e from the big names?

    If you listen to podcasts from some of their sites, its not very pleasant as to 4E and the GSL... I listened to some casts from Green Ronin interviewing themselves and Paizo, as well as a few podcasts linked on their sites, and I got the impression there were stronger plans to throw weight into...

    You and your dice...

    having been a gamer since 1981, and mostly a GM through that period, I have a few hundred dice... And today I got 7 more. For the last few years I have exclusively used jumbo-sized dice for myself and left the rest in a bowl for the players. If I were given a new dice set gift, it would depend...

    Smudges - All Core books

    The only reasons I could imagine for this are: 1. The ink and paper are poor matches for each other. 2. The ink is not yet dry on your copy. This problem is common in printing - most people are familiar with it with newspapers. Would you say what is happening to you is similar to way a newspaper...

    Feat prereqs if your class gives you the feat?

    True, but it would lend weight to the FAQ - which at present seems to say the opposite of what I can find in the book, although that too is rather vague as its not clear on 2 points: 1. Are the proficiencies that come with a class even feats? 2. Is the prereqs for a feat only for training it, or...

    Feat prereqs if your class gives you the feat?

    Hmmm. So, nowhere in print though? FAQs are something I expect to get revised a few thousand times in the coming weeks. :) Hopefully we'll see a character in print that violates the prereqs, or I'll find a page on it.

    Feat prereqs if your class gives you the feat?

    My initial assumption: If a paladin or warrior wants to wear plate armor, she needs a 15 Con AND 15 Str, because that is the prereq for the feat. Where do you get that from? I read it the other way - on prereqs for feats it says that if you ever lose the prereq you can't use the feat anymore...

    Worst Race?

    Where do you get that from? I read it the other way - on prereqs for feats it says that if you ever lose the prereq you can't use the feat anymore. Is there something that says a class that gets it can use it even without the prereq? I'd be very interested in finding that.

    Worst Race?

    Keep in mind that a paladin, even a Cha based one, needs a Str and Con of 15 each (to wear plate). Half-elves thus end up using that Con bonus on Paladin very nicely: ex: 15 13 - 15 10 10 14 14 - 16

    Paladin vs Fighter: Who is the better Defender?

    DPS is a term known to any MMO player, if you play 4e DnD, you're an MMO player, so go learn the terms.

    Paladin vs Fighter: Who is the better Defender?

    Tank != DPS. That's the first thing that divides ok from horrible players of warriors and paladins in MMOs, and now that DnD has made these classes defenders, it applies here as well. If you're trying to figure out which has maximized DPS, you've picked the wrong class. Switch to a Warlock or...

    Paladin vs Fighter: Who is the better Defender?

    My first thought in looking at DnD was to make a paladin - they're the best tanks in WoW, where I play a prot paladin, and 4E seems to have decided they're one of the main tank options now for DnD, in addition to introducing 'tanking' to table top play with the aggro powers... But, if I were...

    Who's the better tank? Warrior or Paladin?

    EDIT: Found the exact thread already existing on pg.2, bumping that one.

    Is there a reason you do not take a multi-class feat

    ... delayed double post, weird ...

    Is there a reason you do not take a multi-class feat

    There is no logical reason to not take all of them, assuming any time you want a skill, and that skill is in another class's list, and you do not yet have the feat. Not taking it is essentially gimping yourself on purpose for 'concept reasons' - akin to say, playing a fighter in a loincloth...

    4E is for casuals, D&D is d0med

    Well I did note, there are a lot of good reasons to slam 4E, for actual concrete things in or missing from the books, but this just isn't one of them. All 'for casuals' really means is 'its appealing to an audience not defined by people exactly like me.'
