You know what's awesome? Not only can you do this, it doesn't affect the mechanics of the game in any way, so you can do it with positively zero effort on the part of yourself or the DM. :D

Well if it was already going on, then I'm not really worried about it. I hadn't seen it, so to me it looked as though the terminology sprung forth from the new edition. And I guarantee it's going to look that way to those who dislike the new edition.

Why do I have to be a child-murdering, town-smashing evil guy if I want to reanimate skeletons to fight evil? I had a LN cleric of vengeance in 3.5 (a gnome, actually), and since he was smaller in stature than most all of his opponents he often animated zombies of rather large creatures to...

Now, are you just taking a jab at the folks who keep saying D&D is now an anime video game, or did this just naturally evolve from your character? Because if it's the latter, I believe I'm going to cry.

Ok, did anyone do "damage per round" calculations for 3e? Because I've been trying to defend that 4e is not like an MMO, but this really doesn't help. This seriously looks like a rogue thread on a WoW board, except replace "damage per round" with "damage per second". :(

Got all 3 books from Barnes and Noble for $53 with free 3 day shipping. They are en route and I'll have them Monday. I also ordered May 20. It really sucks that Amazon is screwing over people who ordered that soon in advance.

Why don't we just wait and see how it actually plays? I have a feeling multiclassing is going to be HOT with people who choose non-standard builds. I mean, if you're going to play a dex fighter, why not grab some ranger or rogue Dex attacks?

Yeah but calling it "streamlined" won't insult anyone, so we have to call it "WoW" and "dumb" to get our point across.

Divisive and Aggressive? LoL. Sorry guys, I wasn't trying to be a "player hater". I was using the term literally, meaning I wanted people who actually hated 4e to come in here and comment, not people who mildly dislike it. Oh, and I thought it was pretty clear I'm not trying to start a fight...

I agree, for one of us EnWorlders to attempt dual wielding bastard swords would result in what you describe. But, I'm gonna go ahead and say, with perfect clarity, that if a world-class swordfighter decided he was going to become an expert in using 2 bastard swords at the same time, it would...

Ok, here's the deal. I don't want any stupid flame wars in here, because my threads are awesome. Dig it. Here's the cheese. I keep hearing people say that 4e is like "World of Warcraft", a very successful Mummorpig. To tell you the truth, I'm pretty clueless as to why. Maybe someone can help me...

Except metal has been around since the late 60's. D&D 4e is pretty freaking METAL, but there are a lot of nonmetal elements present. For example, I think eladrin are absolutely awful in concept.

Sure. Send me a PM if anyone over there wants to donate money. Thanks for the feedback, I had a bunch of lol's writing them too.

If the feats suck so bad, multiclass with all those empty slots?

Or maybe dude can just rip some pages out instead of agonizing over whether or not they disappeared.

What is the bard's power source? Music? I'm sure the barb will be made into a striker. He doesn't remotely fit into any other role. I'm positive the druid will be a controller, since we have a lack of controllers, and really why would a loner become a leader? The 3.5 druid with Diplomacy was...

Some people think all classes in 4e get "super powers oOo", and they are right! All 4e characters are magical super heroes overpowered to 11. Here is my list of short descriptions of all the highly supernatural powers that fighters get up through level 10: Hit you so hard it bounces off your...

Translation: If you want to be a ranger, have pointy ears. Is this really new information? :)

Remember in that one movie when that Legolas guy killed a gargantuan oliphant in one hit? Bam. He didn't know it was a minion. That's why he took care of the 50 dudes on its back first, and then wasted 4 arrows trying to do as much damage as he could into its brain. I guess you could...

More than likely. Melee rangers can get a lot of HP but I'm willing to bet their AC won't be very high at all.
