Part of it's in my sig now but here's what I got: Neutral Good Human Bard (5th level) Strength: 13 Dexterity: 16 Constitution: 12 Intelligence: 16 Wisdom: 16 Charisma: 12 I find it interesting that they made me a Bard yet my Charisma is, relatively, low. Class based questions obviously quite...

Some good points here. I'll just reiterate the ones that apply to me. Originally Posted by Droogie ...if Wotc fails to deliver on their goal of "faster, better, more refined", and instead replace all the old complexities with new ones. Agreed. I'd like to add to this and say it would also...

The name Hermes comes from the word herma which means "crossing stone or boundary". Like most greek gods his appearance and mannerisms changed over time but the ancient greeks most frequently associated him with commerce and travelers. He was also sometimes viewed as a trickster god which is...

Man, those trip attacks are going to be nasty! :) jolt

The Flail Snail, Flumph, Protein Polymorph...wait, what was the question again? ;) jolt

As "The Hobbit" was written as a children's novel I have no problem with the names presented there. I do find the amount of seriousness and indignation in a thread under the category of Humor to be amusing however. In that light, I guess it achieved it's goal. jolt

Heh. Not only is rogue a race, but you'll have the new rouge as a class! Now you can be a rogue rouge! Or even better; a half-rogue rouge! :p jolt

I also agree. And if they are going to go the half-race route, then it should be fully fleshed out. Right now we only have the Elf and Orc willing to intermingle, but only with humans. Personally, I could do without the half-races entirely but if they're going to be part of the core D&D...

I voted unconcerned. I didn't use the old and it doesn't look like I'm going to be using the new either. I've already changed demons and devils for my homebrew. To be honest, the changes don't strike me as all that significant anyway. OLD Demon: "Chaos!" Devil: "Law!" Players: "10,000 XP...

But, according to the designers, roles and classes aren't the same thing; which is why, apparently, we're going to have both. And also, according to the designers, any class/any combo will work. Plus we still have mutliclassing which is, supposedly, even less restrictive than before. You...

Except that's not what's happening nor is it what they said. What really happens is: you choose your role and then, if you don't take one of two classes, you are teh-gimp-suxxor. And if what you said is true, then it certainly doesn;t fit into their "Any class, Any combo" theory. Which I'm...

I sincerely hope that this is this case. If it isn't, the multi-classing is going to be an even bigger mess than it is now since not only will you be combining class abilities, but roles as well. I find this notion hideous and it's pure videogame thinking. City of Hereos(TM), for example...

None of us do. But if we didn't argue, what would keep the Internet going? jolt

This sure sounds like forced to me. A thief Leader. My god man, the world would come to an end. Such an idea is "stupid-t3h gimp-suxxor" Just stick with your Blaster and RU a healr and you'll be fine. Remember, 4E is all about streamlining and options. They're not trying to make it into a...

No, whether I convert to 4E or not is irrelevant. As it's an almost certainty that it won't be able to handle homebrew/houserules/third-party material I have no interest. The other stuff I either don't need or don't trust them to manage properly. $10 may not sound like a lot until you combine...

Well, I suppose not the very second the new PHB comes out no. But when I have all 3 new core books, I'd like to be able to use them right away yes. Considering the level of change coming, I don't want to have to put my campaign on hold while I try to adjust everything. That's not appealing at...

The problem here is that when these WotC staffers give out information it's either incomplete, misleading, or ends up being contradicted later. Supposedly, there will be no sorcerers, monks, bards and maybe not even druids. So if you play one of those classes you're kind of screwed. Maybe...

Actually at this point, considering that Greyhawk, anything that mentions Greyhawk, anything iconic from Greyhawk, and everything that Greyhawk players love about Greyhawk has been trampled on then spit upon then thrown into File 13 which was then crumpled up and placed into a Bag of Holding...

This was my initial impression as well. However, I no longer feel (based solely on the fragments of info that we have) that 4E is giving us more optioms. If anything, it feels like its giving us less. The "just drop what you don't like" idea is hogwash. There are far too many changes being...

Well, I think a lot would depend on how large and active a pantheon exists in the world in question. If you have a deity of rivers, for example, then rivers presumabley behave in whatever manner the diety in charge of them has dictated. Why do volcanoes exist? Is it the same reason they exist...
