Just because you found the power, doesn't mean you aren't crazy :D

well keep in mind that it is slightly campaign dependent as well... if, for example, the campaign makes a lot of poison use... then, well, a dwarf will outshine (and live longer) than a human. But, yes, I am talking about a corner case scenario here...

in AV2 in the section for 'tattoos of heart' i seem to recall the tattoos in that section did stuff based on the number of surges you have spent that day... so the temp hp tattoo was something like you gain 3+number of surges spent... or something like that.. don't have the book handy. don't...

That's what she said .... ;) sorry, i had to say it. :D

hmmm... can news articles even get tags/keywords? that might be the first step that's needed in any form of filtering

What the Jester said is correct in that it IS defined in the rules as written. Having said that, if your group wanted to house rule it, that is your group's option as well. Just be aware that allowing "conjurations" to flank might open up some weird scenarios since conjurations come in many...

i am probably reading way too much in to this but might this hint that the next playtest packet will be more character creation focused? Or in any case, as they get further into the conversion process on subsequent podcasts, i'm sure some basic character creation stuff can be gleaned.... at...

Sir (or Madam), you speak in tongues and of concepts that are truly alien. Clearly, you must be a witch or spawn of cthulhu....

rather than defeat through combat, try defeat through diplomacy (or intimidate ;) ). use standard action diplomacy/intimidate checks to try and convince him it isn't worthwhile to fight. I mean, striker vs controller... it's a forgone conclusion unless the dice are loaded. could also look in...

I know some DMs that love to see PC-on-PC action (wait, that sounds wrong). Depending on your DM's personality, the more you fight the push, the more he'll contrive to force a confrontation between you two. But having said all that.. you're level 6.. only halfway through heroic and still all of...

along with motivation, I'd also give strong consideration to drives the (evil) PCs to be together. More so than "good" PCs, evil PCs can very easily be swayed to do something that works out better for them to the detriment of other PCs leading to something that may not be the style of game...

what kind of god is this? that might help with some of the thematics of the terrain effects. but the first thing that came to mind when i read the above was some sort of aura from the body that doesn't affect the battlefield at the start but as the sarcophagus is slowly opened it gradually...

unfortunately none of us here know you and your preferences well enough to say what will work for you. BUT, here are some questions that might help you make that decision... Ask your self questions like 1) Does the info you see about D&D Next actually interest you or do you find it a good way...

Agreed. Judging by the way the playtest characters were done, some levels were a bump in "class" abilities and some levels were a bump in "theme" abilities. So if they are keeping that pattern of progression, and if they are considering combat superiority a class thing, then it will be every...

i would shy away from a rule that takes away combat effectiveness if you're planning on keeping combats in your play style. you could just simplify it as "at 1st level gain a bonus utility power level 2. at 5th level and every 5 levels, gain another bonus utility power equal to your level of lower"

* is there a NPC that is on close terms with the PCs that is the same 'type' that your cousin would want to play? If so, convert the NPC to a PC for a session (giving your cousin the basic concept and maybe a signature move and then letting him/her fll in the details for his/her playstyle) and...

the two issues that jump out at me are: 1) power level. each pc will be proportionately more powerful as they have more dailies and encounters that they can use in place of at-wills (which are considerably less powerful than most dailies and encounters) 2) decision paralysis. i don't know what...

resistance is very powerful (much more so than regeneration), so I don't think you'll have much luck finding things that increase it.

the last time i tried spawning minions until an object summoning them was destroyed, i have to say it turned out very lackluster compared to what i had in my head. Basically some PCs 'camped' at the spawn spot and just kept hacking at them (some doing so with an atwill blast) before they got to...

isn't "I need to visit (Enworld) more often" the answer to most situations? (it's right up there with the number 42)
