    Reviewing the Artificer

    Twice? I've yet to meet an artificer that doesn't dream of an army of humonculi!

    Can PCs use monster items? If so, how?

    The "expiration date" is important, because you don't want players hoarding a supply of glue/whatever to use any time they want (unless, of course, you treat them as real treasure or magic items and take their value into account when assigning treasure).

    Reviewing the Artificer

    I think artificers should be controllers. We already have two leaders, but only one controller.

    Residuum: It's used to make magic items...and where does it come from? Magic items. Perhaps there is no more residuum being created/found...

    Can PCs use monster items? If so, how?

    I'd allow pcs to use the kobold shots, perhaps with a penalty to hit (-2?), and also with a time limit; perhaps after 48 hours the glue solidifies, etc.

    Does the Silver Dragon exist?

    Sounds like an epic destiny to me.

    Vorpal bunny explained!

    I figured out how the Killer Rabbit from the Holy Grail managed to be so deadly! Because it is such a small animal, its teeth have a damage die of 1. Adding the vorpal quality to it, its damage goes to infinity, because its die rolls are always maximum!

    Residuum is silver

    Plus it makes astral diamonds actually have real value for more than just "people like shiny pretty things."

    Cloud of Knives kills minions?

    So what would happen if you cast Cloud of Knives in an empty spot, and some minion enters and stays in that square?

    Cloud of Knives kills minions?

    Unless the Elite Boss of Doom uses his action to grab the minion and pull it out of the clouds before the minion's turn. And we all know that's gonna happen, right? BBEG's are famous for their concern regarding their minions' wellbeing.

    Charming goblins

    But goblins are not typically presented as a genius race (aside from steampunk-esque techno goblins). Nor are they typically mage-y, scholarly spellcasters; generally goblin casters are at the shamany, witchdoctory end of the spectrum. Not to say that it's wrong to house-rule otherwise, of...

    "You possess a spellbook."

    I disagree. Most of the rituals seem to be for the benefit of the entire party. Warding the party while you sleep. Transporting the entire party. Gain information for the entire party. Waterwalk? You're likely to cast that on the entire party in order to overcome an obstacle. Fighters' swords...

    "You possess a spellbook."

    I thought of the same thing... I had the idea of a spellbook that was a lich's phylactery; the lich's soul was secretly inserted into the text of the spells, so that if you prepare and use spells from the book, you slowly fall under the lich's influence and become possessed. I thought I was...

    I want one too

    Whaddaya mean? Haven't you ever seen Tranzor Z? Rocket...PUNCH! BTW, I was thinking about one of the advantages of gauntlet weapons being that you can't be disarmed... but as far as I know, there is no disarm maneuver in 4e, is there? Are there any powers that can disarm?

    I want one too

    I wouldn't make a spiked gauntlet equal to a katar, unless the spikes were like wolverine claws. I'd make it no better than +2/1d4. Trident? Yeah, I'd leave it as a spear. In some cases a monster's weapon might be more powerful, but you can explain that it's because of the monster's skill or...
