That's unfortunate. I understood your point about not getting curses from feats the first time around, and had no issue with it. I do want to quibble with the "twice as good" analysis, though. From what we've heard from people like yourself who have the books, several warlock powers and the...

This has to be right. All most of us have seen is the little feat blurb on the table in the preview article. To do anything, the once/encounter must include a curse, and hopefully the detailed paragraph will indicate that the once/encounter includes the req'd curse. It's not overpowered, either...

It may be harder to read "2/day" into the feat text, but I definitely agree that the power itself can be read so that 2/encounter=1 use, meaning that the feat character could only use it during one fight before a long rest, but could use it twice during that fight. It will be a good question to...

That makes sense, and I agree with you. That's why I referred to the stat bumps in my post. But there are still problems with the table. Elves, who get a WIS bonus, are only one for cleric and are two for fighter, while dragonborn, who get a STR bonus, are two for cleric and one for fighter. You...

Thanks, that's interesting. One question: if dwarves, with Wis/Con, and dragonborn, with Str/Cha, are a two for Clerics, why are half-elves, with Cha/Con and elves, with Wis/Dex only a one? Not all abilities are equal for all classes, but it seems the elf and half-elf racials would be useful for...

I'm pretty sure I've now seen threads and/or posts for every PHB race, complaining that racial powers are too weak, that all of the other races are better, etc. (OK, I'm actually not sure whether I've seen them for dragonborn, but people have other complaints...) Personally, I'm willing to try...

Hmm... an ENWorld discussion on this issue and no one's said it yet? OK, I'll volunteer: I don't have them yet, but soooon, soooooon my preeeeeeciousesssssssss...

That leads to an interesting question; would an ally adjacent to the square the creature is shifting into qualify, or does the AoO need to be completed before the shift is resolved?

So you're saying it's not the size of the greatsword, it's what you do with it... ;)

The problem I have is that half-elves are apparently ONLY half-elves. Whereas earlier editions had half-elf versions of nearly all of the subraces, in 4e, apparently, eladrin are not as "fond" of humans as their elven cousins. I happen to have had a pretty good idea for a half-eladrin...

I have the books... pre-ordered. ;)

Does the half-elf racial description say whether they are supposed to include half human/half eladrin characters, or does it only mention elves?

Um, no. Mouseferatu, who did playtesting and has had the rules for contract work, stated in another thread that the RAW only allow the human to take the at will from the base class, rather than the subject of the multiclass feat. Getting dangerously close to the conjecture the OP asked us to...

Double-post. Deleted.

I apologize for butting in to this debate, since I'm not the party you're posing that question to, but I don't think the statement is fair. Is a fighter 9/wizard 1 a "piss poor" wizard when compared to a wizard 10? I would say "Yes." But would they be a "crappy" fighter? No. That's ridiculous...

He may be referring to the CON healing bonus, not the breath weapon.

I'm not sure about paragons; have we seen the full write ups for any of them? As for classes, this article at least suggests that at wills will be available at higher levels. That said, it's not clear, so we'll have to wait until the books are out to say for sure.

I don't think that the racial feats will be overpowered. So far, the racial feats that we've seen mostly add to things that the race already gets a bonus to; in some cases, they require a racial power. They have the potential to be exceptionally useful for the half-elf because they can add to...

While I agree that the half-elf (or what we know about the half-elf) is not top tier, I'm not sure it's bottom (let alone THE bottom) either. What features does your grading take into account? Sure, the Diplomacy bonus isn't anything to write home about, but how useful that encounter power is...

I know there's the link to the discussion, but there's some extra "stuff" to dig through there, so I thought I'd add this from the thread. Emphasis mine; confirms the human/elf feat option. EDIT: Blast! Beten to it; I swear that wasn't there when I started typing...
