I had a different experience in the longest-running 4E game I played in (~2 years)- by level 21 or so, we could have one combat last 4+ hours, which didn't happen to us in 3.x. (Of course, members of my group will complain that 3.x most combats went by too quickly at high level.) I suspect much...

I'm pretty new to Pathfinder, but so far Super Genius Games and the materials from Kobold Quarterly/Open Design look very interesting- the new Freeport Companion book is definitely worth checking out. I'm looking forward to SGG's Pathfinder conversions for Dungeon-a-Day.

Last week on the WotC forums, someone reported that Customer Service told them that there was currently no timeline for its inclusion in the Compendium right now. We're planning our next several games without the online reference.

Prestigitalis, I was going to raise the Ambush Trick issue as well. Even as interpreted more conservatively, it makes Ambush Trick a bit less attractive for pure melee thief builds. In the games I'm in, we've played the feat the way CS interpeted it. We also played Hunter's privilege as the...

WotC CS I had the same question. For what it's worth, WotC customer service interpreted like this: --- Question: Does the Cunning Stalker feat require a character be adjacent to the target? Answer: Indeed it does. Cunning Stalker reads "You gain combat advantage against enemies that have no...

Not including various DM home worlds, more or less in order: Planescape The Diamond Throne Golarion Dark Sun Eberron Forgotten Realms Rokugan

Yeah, the quick Essentials option doesn't allow you to multi-class. If you go with the custom creation options, though, you can basically create an Essentials character and have access to more options, including the existing multi-class feats.

They updated the client to try to fix some of the bugs a few days ago, but that hotfix ended up breaking the CB for a lot of people, so they rolled it back to the initial release version. Now they appear to be working on fixing the server issues, and then they're supposed to go back to bug...

I've seen a similar issue reported due to the OS region/language not being set to US English. That's definitely a bug, but changing it has reportedly made powers available to some. That being said, I haven't quite been able to complete a PC just the way I want it when the power selection does...

I was a bit wary of a new D&D comic, but I have to say that D&D #1 has the most awesome opening page of just about any comic I've read, and I loved it. ^_^

I've already tried and failed to not get my hopes up. ;) Oddly enough, I don't need a VTT anymore, really, but I can think of some occasions when it would be useful. I am glad they announced it, and I'm glad that those in the beta are able to talk about their experiences. +1 for increased...

Yeah, it hasn't been working for many people the last few hours. Mudbunny said they are working on it.

That's kind of where I am right now; I've enjoyed playing 4E. I don't like the poor communication, the annual layoffs, the lack of community participation (see poor communication), the rushed projects... I've met some of the game developers in the past, and I think they're good, smart people who...

I do understand that attitude. Although I don't quite share it (I'm still a DDi subscriber and play 4E, and don't plan to stop anytime soon) the character builder was the tipping point amongst systems for some of my friends. If they don't have access to the character builder the way they like to...

The Terms of Use for the software are different from the Terms of Use for the Website. I haven't found a copy of them online- they're what you get whenever you install or update the Character Builder. They do restrict use of the software to one individual. They also restrict use of the software...

It won't let you lower a character's level unless you change the XP, I believe- then you can either raise or lower the character to the level matching the XP. I read that at least one of the XP levels was off in some fashion, but I haven't seen that yet. Homebrew and that type of mixing isn't...

AsmodeusLore has a good compiled list of issues. Some of those are known issues, some are reported from the forums. Adding Dark Sun inherent bonuses doesn't seem to be an option yet. For me, the change is kind of a wash. The three characters I really wanted to set up aren't working quite...

Congratulations, good luck, and I hope you have a chance to have some fun. ^_^

Thirded. Actually, pdfs in general, not just TSR.
