So I have a question; (I believe this has been mentioned once or twice elsewhere, but I haven't seen an answer...) the Cleric and Warlord multiclass feats grant you the class healing powers 1/day. The text of the powers indicate that they can be used each encounter, but only up to twice. So does...

Dilettante gives you another class's at-will 1/encounter. The multiclass feat gives you a class power; how often depends on the class. If you take the wizard or warlock multiclass, it DOES work the same way as Dilittante, giving you one of the spells (pact specific for warlock) 1/encounter...

Because it was a Chaotic Evil cow (actually, probably a minotaur...), so it wasn't interested in allowing itself to be sacrificed to the gods for the greater good. They tried to sacrifice it, but then somebody got gored, and that was the end of that. :D

I agree with most of your analysis, but I do think you should consider putting the Half-elf in your list for Paladin. Their scores are both beneficial, and, with the paladin's need for a decent Wisdom, they are well situated to take one of the cleric's at-wills 1/encounter. Of those, things like...

I think there are a number of builds that absolutely require a tertiary stat. I'll point to the paladin, just because I think it's the clearest example: Strength and Charisma for damage, Wisdom for many of the beneficial effects from powers (number of Lay on Hands/day, etc.). You can swap...

I agree that the pregen is not as well thought out as it should've been. The powers selected (including the suggested half elf dilettante power) don't seem to mesh with the scores as well as they should. But, that said, I don't think it's fair to call a 16 Wis "low." You're losing one point off...

In addition.

According to the various threads/posts on 4e so far: Half elves? Underpowered. Humans? Underpowered. Tieflings? Underpowered. Eladrin? Underpowered. Halflings? Small, so underpowered. Melee Rangers? Underpowered. Rogues? Underpowered. Warlocks? Underpowered. Warlords? Underpowered. Wizards...

I think it probably depends on the party. If you have another rogue or a melee cleric or two big defenders, I think Wolf Pack Tactics is a strong candidate for the positioning value. (Actually, I'd also be a fan of the inverse: a Warlord with the Rogue multiclass feat can position the party...

I don't think he was arguing that the ranger can't select attacks based on tactics. I believe the point was that the "wizard shtick" you didn't want to consider originally and vulnerability debuffs have a strong potential to increase damage figures. Some of the ranger's attacks will increase...

Same thought. I'm actually particularly interested in playing a Halfling Warlord for the Rogue tactic. As a halfling, you're already likely to be using a shortsword, so if you take the rogue multiclass feat, you can use Wolf Pack Tactics to help line the rogue up, and then benefit directly from...

It's disturbing how many people get a woody from a picture of a dryad.

I must admit that I'm a little disturbed by this analysis, specifically the fact that dragonborn are above average for every class except wizard. They get a racial encounter power that lets them make an area attack, the one ability wizards are best at. I know there's been uproar in the past, and...

Good point, but it doesn't automatically render the earlier post incorrect. "Value" is a subjective term (as you acknowledge!) determined by the market (i.e. the buyers). A buyer is free to decide that products offered by those who adhere to specific "ethical" business practices---honoring...

Ah, but you forget that well known dwarven ballad, "Sexy Hairy Back".

That's useful, but, without a more extensive re-write, the conclusion at the end of WotC-Miko's para isn't quite right; it's a minor action to mark, and it lasts until the end of the next turn, so it will benefit two attacks, plus any AoO on the same target in between. That's actually not...

Can you take the divine challenge with the dilettante ability? It's a feature, not an attack.

I have, thanks. My bad. I'm reluctant to kick this thread, but I do want to ask: since the abilities are pact specific, does that mean that only half-elves will be able to get Eldritch Blast 1/encounter, since it's not pact specific? (Sure, you could trade an at-will for it at level 11 if you...

DELETED.

This came up in another thread. As it is currently written, the Warlock multiclass feat grants you a pact ability 1/encounter, an ability that only functions on targets you have cursed. The catch? You don't get a curse. The ability is useless! Current proposed solutions: Other suggested...
