I was a retribution paladin aswell. I managed to raid Black Temple and Mount Hyjal, but the harassing, even by my guildmates in a supposed to be mature guild, was a bit annoying.

Conan the Cimmerian killed for first time at 12 (A Vanir Ranger) and was scoring with forest witches at 15. Shortly later he leaves his town and begins his adventuring career. Have you watched Uwe Boll's In the Name of the King, that Dungeon Siege tale? Now that's a farmer!

My chances for playing 4e are very, very low, since only other player would be up to DMing...and it would be once Spanish version is out, but, if I could play, my first character would be an Eladrin Wizard or Warlock (leaning towards Warlock). I like the concept of both, although warlock seems...

The War of the Spider Queen saga (Six books) start with very high level characters. Pharaun, the main character, is around level 14, casting spells non-stop. Just when he's going to be out of spells, he's got all his arsenal of wands and scrolls. Running out of spells is used by the narrative to...

The interesting part is the high attack bonus from minions. That makes them dangerous, since they won't be requiring natural 20s like 3.5 "minions", low level creatures being one-shot by higher level characters.

We can promote you to "Legendary game store owner" with all the information you provided us :)

I think it does provoke opportunity attacks. From the 2.0 PrRC: Maybe Shadowfell owners can show the exact wording on it.

I understand your point, and I'm thinking about limitations on skill use: 1) Skills usable in a skill challenge template -> Athletics doesn't make much sense in the "diplomacy" template. 2) How many times can you use a determinate skill? Can you have success in a skill challenge by just...

I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't show a list of the epic destinies with their prereqs, but well, we get to see what the standard will be : One "resurrection" power, one utility and two features. EDIT: Weird wording: Sounds like 3.5 writing. Bold mine.

Same here. I'm preordering my gift set tomorrow and it's going to be 47€, shipping costs included. A single handbook here would cost me 40€. Since there's one real gaming store here, they can put the prices they want. When I asked about high prices they just said "The prices are set by DeVir...

The less popular three 3.x core classes, half-orcs, half-elves and gnomes didn't have much luck at 4.0! Two out, one is left out at the second pregen we get of it.

Skill encounters are, skills, turned into frantic situations, with a similar feeling than combats and stuff. Rituals are one of the newest thing that comes with the 4th and it's kinda "revolutionary", since it's going to work for many things that were just spells in 3.5. And it probably has...

Some interesting stuff at the comments. I just asked if he can reveal about Warforged, Shifters, etc. being in the MM with PC stats. I managed to spell Kalashtar correctly, but failed at spelling Warforged /facepalm.

Bold mine. I stopped reading OotS one year ago or so, when Belwar had died (crushed against the ground) and all that, but was V's gender confirmed or is it still unknown?

After the first encounter at the Raiders of Oakhurst module, I told my players that minions only had 1 HP, but high attack ratings and a fixed amount of damage, for simplicity. So, after 5 minutes of joking about it "So he tripped and died" "He sneezed and died" "Hey, if he gets hit for too...

That would make sense. That extra attack is the final attempt they got to kill the enemy with their last breath. After that, they are gone. We need to see the full pack of rules, but I my interpretation of the situation is as yours for now.

NPCs don't follow same rules as PCs. So that attack bonus could have been set arbitrarily. You know, they wanted the 1 HP minion at level 9 to have this attack bonus, so it's useful enough and a good run for its experience cost.

It really looks scary. Bloodrager and Eye of Gruumsh are lovely monsters, with nice mechanics based on the flavour. Eye of Gruumsh, a melee buffed in name of Gruumsh, with allies around him making their final attacks when their breath expires...and the Bloodrager is just madness.

I really liked this excerpt/preview. Two warlord at-will powers (at last!), which are quite nice, flavour-wise. I wonder if there's a similar power, but with ranged attacks, besides that power we saw some months ago with a very weird name (everybody got a free basic ranged attack against the...

Well, only a handful of people can test if the book really implode if you try to change the pregens ;)
