The paladin already has treasure--armor. Why make the rogue or warlord go without and give extra to a character that already has something? That sounds unbalancing as far as treasure distribution.

Beautiful. Thanks for the article reference. I was wondering how I was going to emulate Doctor Octopus' arms. :D Regarding the 12 squares thing, you're right. Dunno why I was thinking 1 square = 1 foot. Gah, stupid not-robot brain... So which of the two was better? The 'soldier' build or...

If it were me, I'd probably re-fluff. Everyone deserve a piece of treasure, and you have 2 characters still in need. Unless the player of the paladin is an exceptional role-player or is suffering from not having a long sword, I'd think that he got his just rewards for now with the armor...

And so Sir K buys the equipment from them....or they sell the loot for phat cash and whoever needs a sweet pimped out piece is allowed to spend the cash. (edit, later - sorry, I misunderstood who Keegan was. I dare say he's not going to bother doing much selling these days, eh?) Seriously...

Part of the joys of being a player is careful (re-)distribution of treasure, so.... 1 or 2 on a d6 = pally 3 or 4 on a d6 = rogue 5 or 6 on a d6 = warlord ....? Maybe?

Believe me, once it's there I'm sure it'll get attention....let's just say we nerds love to show off our knowledge, you know?

I'm creating a monster (http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-fan-creations-house-rules/252897-robot-enforcer-please-critique.html) that has, basically, Doctor Octopus arms: mech tentacles with sizable grabby claws. These monsters hover, so they can fly vertically to the 106th floor of a...

I think this is supposed to be in the Fan Creations & House Rules discussion group.

That seems like a complicated way to say, "Since the players outnumber the opponents 2:1, the opponents all..." 1) die 2) surrender 3) run away ....depending on the situation. Combat ends very, very quickly in those three situations. Why make rules for something that you can hand-wave a...

The mad scientist went back to his lab and developed *Robot Enforcer Mark II* fresh off the assembly line. Is this any better? (Please be aware, too, that the gun is detachable and can be used without needing the robot as a power source. Smart players can take a robot down and use a gun...

The electric gun could be a recharge power rather than an at-will. (And "recharge" fits with the schtick quite nicely, lol)

If I bumped this up to a level 4 creature, would it be more palatable? (I based 75% of the abilities directly, word for word, from the level 4 Cavern Choker, pg. 42 of the MM. The Monster Builder on the WotC site calculated the damage based on a level 3 soldier.)

I'm wondering if I should create an additional Encounter power called Staggering Drop that allows the robot to shift vertically straight up only, no horizontal movement (up to it's full 12 Fly, if a ceiling doesn't prevent it) and release grabbed PCs as a move action? Hmm....a character dropped...

I'm brand-new to monster building, so be a little gentle with me here. I also don't have the mad r0><><0rz 1337 HTML skillz to put this up in a dope-fresh statblock format. I created this for a cheesy 1930's pulp setting and want to know if it seems good, bad, or just plain ugly. (Yes, I know...

In other words, "God, that is so 2008."

You apparently haven't seen the shifter, then.

You don't know how much i'm trying to avoid some well-placed toilet humor right now. /resume thread with my apologies I'm fond of The Screwhead's FHM-as-disease suggestion.

Oh, snap! Yes, I have to agree with you.

^ Right. That'd be even more hurtful to me if his eye was actually pointing in the right direction. 'Cause then he'd actually look, y'know, mad at me. I'm entitled to my own bloody opinion, even if you don't agree with it. Lay off already.

Aha! The Plane of Emmmm....never mind.
