Another couple of weeks, another session. The player of the Wizard PC missed the session, but a good time was still had by all. We played for six hours. For prep, I decided to finally try adapting some dungeons (via the Dungeon magazine). Most things I looked at seemed a little shallow, so I...

Yeah! Why do anything without taking to an extreme? I can't believe you cracked this!

Weird. I wonder if it's tied to my account. Though I like your sig, I didn't quote you.

The bigger the changes, the more work it requires. You gave an example of removing Sneak Attack and adding Divine Magic as a minor change to get what you want. I'm saying that works fine on minor changes, but the bigger the change, the more work you're getting. And with big changes across...

So far, I'm very, very far from satisfied. Aaaand I'm interested again. But this leaves me feeling meh. This works for minor changes. The bigger things get, the more work is required again. Not really good for helping me make classes for each campaign until I've done so a lot (which still...

My very first official character was a Wheel of Time character. There were classes like Noble (tied into the political games specific to the setting), Algai'd'siswai (specific warriors from the desert with a specific mindset in the setting), Initiate (as in the Aes Sedai, specific spellcasters...

This about sums up my feelings on it, too. True. I'm not sure how big my players are into it, but the new player is pretty tied into the Far Realm, and I definitely want to play it up. No worries! I've gotten useful suggestions before my next session this Saturday (your take on the Far Realm...

I think so. I know it's not something one should admit around here, but I'm not a fan of Lovecraft or Cthulu. The whole thing is kind of a turn-off for me. However, I do like the alien (as in incomprehensible) feel of what the Far Realms could represent. I actually don't even mind the "don't...

I could see this working just fine. Who is what is the Overlord? I don't have any books, so what I pick up online is almost all crunch.

Wow, very cool ideas, thank you (XP sent your way)! I definitely plan to use some / most of this at some point. I do have a question, though: how does this fit into the 4e world creation myth and the Dawn War? Like, did the Primordials not exist before that point? To get us on the same page...

I'm interested... I've got the next 3ish levels roughly mapped out for what I think the party will do (I've built in hooks, and they've been good sports about biting so far), and I'm working in some Far Realms stuff. Would be cool for ideas that I can hint at now and use later. He only throws...

That's kind of a hard call. Like most things, I like it being kind of open. A lot of your suggestions are good, and a lot of mine would line up with Celebrim's, too. In my RPG, you'd probably get it via skills (and every PC gets the same amount unless the pay for more). Some good Fighter skills...

This is an interesting Wisdom-based take on his core character concept! It's a ways off from his 10-Wisdom character, but it still keeps the core stuff that's necessary (dwarf, exile, guardian, Paladin of Kord, etc.). Out of curiosity, what is Battle Wrath?

I believe it's located in the first thread once (when I give the three initial character builds), and I assume it's mentioned at least a couple times during the play reports (including the first one). But I don't expect you to have those memorized. Again, though, thanks for the suggestion. Even...

Not really dismay, no. A small amount of surprise after hearing how much better it was, though, yes. I found the difference quite striking, still. Eh, it's flexible, yes, but I still don't think the Knight will compare by the end of this. We'll see :) They're 5th level after last session...

Weird, but thanks for looking it up for me :) I also didn't get a notification for it. Someone else had replied ten minutes earlier, but it listed his "reply" as well. Just made me curious.

"06:50 PM - Plaguescarred quoted JamesonCourage in post Hidden" I have no problems with this user, and I have nobody on my ignore list. I just didn't want to look like I was calling anyone out. Any ideas?

Any idea what this means? Was I quoted into a private group or something?

I'd like to see any edition do this. I don't think I've seen this, and I expected more out of 4e here. I have a Fighter (Knight) in the 4e game I'm running, and while he has some stuff outside of combat, it's incredibly limited compared to the Wizard (Sha'ir). Outside of combat, he has the...

I kind of like any remaining damage being applied to a creature adjacent to you, as long as your attack would hit their AC. It's like a cleave. So, if you're fighting kobolds (say, 5 HP each), and you hit for 18 damage, you could kill one (5 HP), cleave-kill another (10 HP), cleave-kill a third...
