    New Content or Better Content?

    At this point, more content is fairly irrelevant to me. Lacking good electronic tools means that even as more content gets added, it's just harder to sort through to find what I want.

    New Content or Better Content?

    Personally, I'd like to see a finished monster builder with some reasonable form of an encounter/campaign builder.

    What are the best classes for each role in 4th edition?

    My only complaint with that analogy is that in 3e, monks could run at 50 mph.

    Transporting over long distances?

    Out of combat, in general PCs travel at the speed of plot.

    Player 1 'grabs and pulls' player 2, then claims it's 'Forced movement, no AtOp'

    More seriously, if it were me, I'd go with either Rule of Cool/Do Something Awesome personally. The person pulling the character out is at least giving up one standard action to do this, so its clearly not unbalancing at the table. Clearly once the trapped ally was grabbed, the rules clearly...

    Player 1 'grabs and pulls' player 2, then claims it's 'Forced movement, no AtOp'

    Postcount++, so my next post will be more authoritative.

    What are the best classes for each role in 4th edition?

    Arguably the best leader is dependent on what the rest of the party is like, because it interacts pretty heavily with the rest of the party's defenses, basic attacks, and healing surges. All that said, the huge gulf in power between min/maxed characters and regular characters in 3e is largely...

    4th edition: Not happy with the new direction.

    If every time I offer you a beer you complain about the hops, the maltiness, and the carbonation, the best answer isn't for me to find a non-hoppy, non-malted, non-carbonated beer, its to suggest that what you really want is to try wine instead.

    Just how compatible is Essentials?

    I'd suggest that deprecated fits better than obsolete.

    [Louisville, KY] - Looking for Players

    I'm moving to Louisville and looking to start up a new 4e gaming group. I've been playing DnD for 9 years and DMing for 7. Looking to start early to mid July. If you're interested or have questions, pm me or reply here.

    depravity score?

    IIRC, and my books are currently packed up so I can't check, depravity was a mechanic from Heroes of Horror. It was meant to emulate the physical and mental corruption that truly evil situations can impose. I remember there were various benefits and penalties that it would imbue as your score...

    Design & Development: COnquest of Nerath

    To me, it looks like nexus ops with more strategic depth and a bit more decisive combat mechanic.

    Design & Development: COnquest of Nerath

    Should have pre-ordered when the price was 50 bucks then.

    Just how compatible is Essentials?

    My only experience with DMing a mixed group was that there wasn't much problem mixing the two. Now, my campaign ended right after that, so I didn't see multiple levels, but what I saw was pretty much everything worked. There were a few comments that the martial essentials were a lot less...

    Design & Development: COnquest of Nerath

    Yay amazon pre-orders. I know, I'm killing FLGSs.

    Why did you stop subscribing to DDI?

    The offline monster builder is incredibly buggy, and the online monster tool lets you relevel monsters and rename powers.

    D&D 4E 4e virgin looking for answers

    Essentials are mostly just new builds of the regular classes. Some of them don't have the atwill, utility, encounter, daily structure that others do. Still, essentials and others can coexist in the same party without trouble. There were a few minor rules changes, but not all that many for...

    Chris Perkins teasers from Comicpalooza in Houston

    Didn't they already do the giants conversion? Calling it "Against the Giants". I'll of course buy the ToEE stuff.

    Monster Vault: Mages of Saruun

    Is it just me, or does the warped Mage of Saruun look like he wants to say "All your base are belong to us!"?

    Unfortunate situation

    I use avast on my windows partition, but no idea how good it is. All that said, its hard to specifically say it was someone from enworld. It could be just some weird trojan/keylogger that isn't working right and is trying to report back its data incorrectly. Or some weird windows driver...
