Couldn't the pinned creature simply bullrush the fighter itself?

I don't think they are tracking characters. After you download the update, there's no network activity between the builder and wizard's servers. I think it's a fine idea, as long as they were upfront about what info is being collected and let people opt out.

The cover is only in effect when the ranged attack is made, and only the target has the cover. The stealth rules state you can't use allies to remain stealthed, even though they grant you cover from ranged attacks.

It does. Under "Keep out of Sight" it reads "You can't use another creature as cover to remain hidden"

I recommend you propose this as an option for everyone in your group, each player gets a turn at switching to a new class if they want to. You won't get to play new PCs as often as you would like, but it would be fair to the rest of the players.

Don't cry if your character dies. :angel:

I would have the dragon take the aura damage one round, then turn off the aura. There's nothing in RAW that allows this afaik, but the dragon should be able to control the magic that creates the aura.

I think you're right, allies don't provide cover as far as stealth is concerned; only for ranged attacks.

Keep in mind, using that feat does not constitute an actual stealth check. It just gives CA against the target. A legitimate stealth check requires superior cover or total concealment from all enemies and he needs to beat all of their passive perceptions.

Did they really do all that? All I found was a couple extra encounters in Dungeon 155, alongside the conversions. I'm running H1 now, I would love this info if you could point me to it! :)

If he moved out, and then attacked, no CA for the attack; he loses stealth and CA at the end of the move action. He could charge out, since that is one action.

As a player, I find a one-trick pony to be very boring. If your player is enjoying that, then more power to him/her. Is the rogue just sitting there behind a tree, rolling a stealth check before every attack? I would rule that the player has to actually move to a new location every round...

FYI, Majora is probably referencing the MM2 podcast. The designers talked about the MM1 hydra being lame. They also said that they weren't going to fix it, and the good ones are in the MM2. I'm obviously paraphrasing quite a bit. :) Give it a listen!

Hmm, ok I guess I see your point there. At least the bola and whip actually cost a feat. :hmm: That eladrin feat seems too good a deal on a superior weapon . I agree, house rule of some kind is needed!

Are we sure about this ruling? Regardless of its groups, Urgosh is a superior weapon. PHB reads - "You can learn to use a superior weapon by taking the Weapon Proficiency feat."

credit where its due OK, I really have no interest in Pathfinder, but I have to give them major kudos. THIS is how you fight piracy... with reasonable prices. Hopefully this will lead to fans buying the hardcover and the PDF, rather then buying the hardcover and pirating the pdf.

Unfortunately theirs no such thing as a secure format. I'm guessing the search for this dream is the reason it's taking so long! :p The music and video game industry seems to be coming to terms with this, as we're seeing less and less DRM. Hopefully it won't take the print publishing industry...

I think its safe to say that some of the books will assume you have some of the others. :) Arcane Power, for example, supplements characters in PHB, PHB2, and FRPG.

Another factor is switching weapons; to switch from your long bow to your 2 swords costs 3 minor actions, unless your character has the quickdraw feat, or drops the longbow as a free action.

If a 5e came out 5 years after 4e's launch I would most likely skip it and wait for 6th. That would be waaaaaay too soon to expect me to re-buy all these books.
