Note that as a hybrid, the druid will probably not be both roles at the same time : I expect the druir to be able to be eitheir a competent controller in normal forme (spellcasting) *or* a competent striker (or maybe defender) in beast form.

What !? Are you saying that politicians are brain-eating abominations ? I always thought that the word 'politics' was derived from the word 'poly', meaning 'many', and the word 'ticks', meaning 'blood sucking parasites.' ;) To get back on the initial topic, not that even if Global warming...

Soulknife as a shadow striker ? I could imagine using a sort of shadow blade instead of the mindblade, but then it wouldn't be a mindblade anymore. Why don't keep psionics ? And I find strange that you forgot the basic psionic class, the psion itself (will probably be a controller) About the...

http://lfgcomic.com/page/137 Not the funniest joke in LFG, but I was suprised by the direct reference to D&D. :p

Note that a young white dragoin would be appropriate with Meepo, as in the original module, the sunless citadel, Meepo was the keeper of the tribe's dragon, a white wymling named Calcryx, that the PCs had to capture alive to gain the trust of Meepo and his tribe (ensuring a fun fight with 2nd...

It might be that no class get all martial weapon proficiencies for free, but just a few. Something like this : "Fighters : chose X weapons prof. from the simple/martial list" And of course I expect additionnal proficiencies to be available as feats. With such a system, the elf bonus would be...

Doesn't displacement force the attacker to keep the *lower* roll ? And about mirror image, I expect that it was an error, and that you lose an image only if it is a miss *because of the power* (so if it miss by more than 6 you don't lose an image). About the targeting effect, I would like the...

Moreover, it has been revealed that during the beta test of *3rd* edition, they had made magic missille need a ranged touch attack (much like the later orb spells), but that some beta testers (grognards from the time) had said "that it wasn't d&d anymore" to remove the auto-hit, and that's why...

New post on Keith Baker's Blog :http://gloomforge.livejournal.com/ Rituals as a better way to simulate the magic economy, I like it. (and from what i can remember, magic items are now created using rituals too)

Thanks for the reacap, I had missed the part about the implement. Seems like implement doesn't get a proficiency bonus.

With hunter's quarry and the lethal hunter feat : Basic = +6 (1d10+1d84); At-Will +10 (1d10+1d8) ... against a foe with a high AC, careful strike will be better. And note that you don't compare careful strike with the basic attack, but with the other at will power (same attack bonus and...

Being able to hit with a bonus of a character with 8 more levels, even for less damage, seems pretty good for me. :D And if I want to do more damage, that's why the others at will powers are for.

The half elf warlock had ray of frost (a wizard power) at will, it is now per encounter (and I suppose that for a wizard it would still be at will) It is probable that half-elves get to chose a at-will 1st level power from any class as a racial power, but to prevent abuse can only use it once...

Some abilities have also been included in the "trained only" use of some skills. I think that detect magic is now handled by the Arcana skills, and tracking will probably need only to be trained in the appropriate skill(s) (like in Saga, expect that it has been hinted that several skills might...

Looks good, but i see some ways to improve it : - update the magic item slots (see the article about magic items to get the new list). - I think that you can remove the magic item bonus to abilities, as such permanent bonuses should not exist anymore in 4th edition. - About the skills, we...

Look at the exemple armor : it is low level, yet its special ability (a free healing surge once by day) is still as usefull at level 30, with the healing provided still being 1/4 of your total. If I find a +3 large shield of whatever at level 11, I might still be using the magic armor that I...

My solution I have been thinking myself of using 1-1-1-2-2-2 , where the diagonals cost only 1, expect if you change direction then it's 2. I have no problem with firecubes, but I still have some fear about players using the 1-1-1 rule to move around obstacles without losing any movement ...

I think that if shields still have en enhancement bonus when the 4th edition is released, that it won't stack with bonuses from other items. It was the same way for rings of protection and armor in previous editions, and it allowed someone whose armor had a big bonus to use others rings, while...

Don't think of the limit as "I cannot wear both an amulet and a cloak", but more as "I cannoth benefit from the magical bonus of two magic items of the same nature" There was someone (a designer I think ?) who wrote that you could remove the item slots by replacing their location with their...
