See, when I read this thread at first I saw "ostricizing 4e" and thought "aren't people already doing this?" :p

Aha! That's why I can't use it at work. Just as well, I prefer Firefox, and it's better in every way. :)

From the wording of the feat, it's not clear that you only gain the +2 damage with shuriken and daggers. The dwarf and eladrin feats work this way, I believe. If that's your intent, then the feat is fine. I'd just reword it to make it clearer. Overall, I really like these. The most "useful"...

Should they be mowing down atropals?

Sounds like a good idea to me! I think you may end up tweaking the Paragon Paths pretty significantly in order to make them appropriate for players. For instance, a phylactery may not be appropriate for PCs, or a vampire's blood drain may be better as an Encounter power and spends a healing...

I never said they didn't include enough feats. I said I want more. There's a difference, you know.

When building a 15th-level Cha-focused Paladin with the standard array, I had a lot of problems picking feats, mainly because a lot of feats now have pretty restrictive ability requirements, and very few of those have Charisma requirements. I suspect this problem will crop up with other paragon...

Sigh... tac-tiles. Best product I should've owned.

I'm no historian, but lots of folks seem to argue that the vast majority of samurai did not wield two weapons simultaneously, and that the wakazashi was more for committing seppuku than anything else. That said, a Ranger with two katanas can't be a bad thing. Back on topic: I really wanted to...

The benefit of this power seems to be that you can use an action point in one additional encounter per day, not that you can use more than one action point in an encounter.

I'm not sure what you mean by inappropriate. Items that are far greater than the PC's level? Items that wouldn't "reasonably" be in the dungeon (i.e., finding a magical crossbow in melee oriented barbarian's horde)? Something else? If the former, I don't plan on giving my players items...

Ah, my favorite 8-legged gold-skinned beaver. I wish I could find my old 2nd ed. MM. Man, what gems it had!

This irony is incredibly delicious to me.

We've gotten a new race, a new adventure, an organization, new magic items, and a new paragon path: all the kinds of things that would've appeared in Dragon or Dungeon of old. And the quality is fine. I'd even say it's high. And you're saying that this is the stuff that won't sell? Not that...

This is my first venture into a Dr. Midnight story hour. I am deeply impressed sir. I'm going to enjoy this one.

I don't disagree with any of this. That doesn't change the fact that they've started releasing free and (IMO) high quality content that I can take advantage of without a paid subscription. You can be sure that I am going to gobble up as much of this as possible, because as hong and others have...

With this edition at least, the new paradigm is to give players items their characters will find useful, rather than dump a whole bunch of random stuff into their laps, orchestrate a way for them to sell it, then buy the equipment they want. I look at it like cutting out the middle man. That...

6 months of constant free content? That'd be pretty awesome, but seems too good to be true.

Dammit, now I can't convert my favorite naked character! Thanks a lot Wizards, you've ruined DnD for me!

Completely agree! I know we'll see more as time goes on. I was just surprised by their choices for what to errata first. Also note that my comment about WotC not considering certain things to be mistakes was sarcasm free; there is a definite possiblity that what many of us consider mistakes...
