Perhaps some kind of Poison attack? Channel Divinity: Zehir's Corruption Encounter * Divine, Implement, Poison Standard Action Melee Touch Target: One creature Attack: Wisdom vs. Fortitude Hit: The target is weakened (save ends). Although that's pretty good for a CD power, which are...

Not sure where you heard this. Perhaps you misunderstood a statement made that we no longer need clerics? Because I think that's completely true. I do think it's really important for someone to play the Leader.

The term is new, but I don't think the method of design was unknown before. Wizards just gave us a nice little definition for it.

This is not the first (nor I doubt the last) thread I've seen about clerics stealing the wizards' thunder. Hopefully play experience demonstrates something different than what's on paper.

4e has no advantages over Diablo III whatsoever. Congratulations, you win. I present you with the Key to the Internets.

Seriously, I solved this thread a page ago. We're done mods, you can close it. :)

I completely agree with everything you've said. But where the rules fail us (and this is but one example), the DM has to make a judgment call. If we're lucky, in the future this will be fixed. Sometimes, though, we don't get errata for problem rules. If that is the case, then the intent of...

:melee: Trip At-will * Weapon Standard action Melee Target: One creature Attack: Strength vs. Reflex Hit: The target is knocked prone. :melee: Disarm At-will * Weapon Standard action Melee Target: One creature wielding a weapon Attack: Strength vs. AC Hit: The target drops its weapon in...

The Dark Knight and Hellboy II (which is looking surprisingly good). The Dark Knight is going to be far and away the best movie of the summer. I don't usually get my hopes up, but I have a lot of confidence in Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, and Christopher Nolan. Also, Peter Travers at Rolling...

It's really not MAD at all. An Infernal Warlock could do this with a High Constitution. Even Dex isn't that important, since most of his attacks will be Constitution based, and he doesn't necessarily care about the dagger attacks as much as he cares about having a 15% crit chance with his...

I dunno... I don't think so. It will require some adjustments, but every playstyle does. I'd say your DM is doing the right thing by making the combats tougher. Probably Party Level + 1 or PL + 2 for standard challenges. Depending on your group, I'd probably try and include more monsters...

I still am, but I've gotten kinda delayed with the project. At first I didn't think anyone was interested, and just last week my g/f broke her knee so she's need a lot of assistance. I'll try and get back on this over the weekend. I'll make some more headway and post what I have.

Your opinions are only that: yours. Sorry you don't like the game, but I don't feel compelled to correct you.

Well, those defensive abilities look good... really good. I think the Fighter will still hold a nice place by being able to mark multiple foes. But Swordmages and Paladins... could be a tough choice.

Another great article. I'm finding this stuff immensely useful for my game. Though I won't use the article word for word, Tiefling ruins figure heavily in my campaign and I'll be lifting things liberally from this piece.

Here's the thread over on the Gleemax CharOp boards: http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?t=1040811 Four rerolls, all presumably used to keep Blade Cascade going. It requires a pretty specific combination of multiclassing to get to this point. But there's another build out there that...

I think you can pretty much blame customer service for that, who seem to have no more mastery of the rules than the player base.

Try to ignore all the hullabaloo on the internet and stick with your gut. If you felt like you understood something before, at least play your interpretation several times before you decide whether it's wrong or right. The consensus demands official rulings for all kinds of things, but unless...

This thread has really intrigued me. I started RPGs with 2nd AD&D, but most of my experience as a gamer and designer lies with the d20 system. After giving this thread a perusal, I'm going to pick up the GURPS Lite rules, and maybe the HEROs Sidekick stuff. Sounds like there's some great...

This is a pretty fair question. I've notified the mods and asked them to lock this entire thread. It started off on the wrong foot, and it should've been buried 4 pages ago. As much as Don thinks he's doing the community a favor, he ain't.
