For those still bent on screwing the paladin and others in armor, what are you doing to balance the equation by screwing over the unarmored PCs? If the answer is nothing (which I surmise it is based on responses here), then it's not that you're being a RB, you're just being a B and a bad...

Add to that: ignore any penalties if you have armored endurance training or are sleeping in anything other than heavy armor. But, to be honest I wouldn't have any penalties. It's not in 4E.

Yes, the monsters know what can happen, but doesn't know about follow-up powers. He knows about the mark, but doesn't know that the warden can do some other things (for example). However, as DM I frequently have my monsters violate the conditions. This does several things: It tends to speed...

This is the last post in this thread because I am the Threadkiller!

Candygram.

A bump in PC ability without a corresponding understanding of those abilities will make a difficult fight very difficult. If you're burned out, I recommend just not continuing. Otherwise, you'll wind up with a sub-par game that no one enjoys anyway. Regardless, my opinion is that you need to...

Try Isle of the Ape. :)

Casual gaming is a lot like casual sex. There's no commitment; either party can leave at any time and the only purpose is fun. The main difference is that gamers tend to have a lot better chance of casual gaming.

Sometimes the words can make a difference and make it easier to understand. I'm not sure if the book agrees with the on-line compendium, but the compendium uses the word "hit" and not attack: Hit: 1d8 + Intelligence modifier cold damage. Until the end of your next turn, any enemy that hits the...

You need Versatile Expertise. This is a requirement.

I like the teleport pit trap in Banewarrens. I don't have the reference on hand, but it was definitely deadly.

Well, surprisingly I can install anything I want on my laptop using Trusted Desktop Tools, but while on the company network I cannot access wizards.com. Actually, I can't even access ENWorld.org. But, I mostly use a two-monitor desktop workstation on a subnet (program-specific), which does...

I cannot install Silverlight at work so the usage of Silverlight is a real problem for me. Fortunately, the Compendium doesn't use Silverlight so I can get to that. As others, I still use the old Monster Builder. I bet I'm losing out on some new monsters, but c'est la via. The new MB is...

The mercenary band stole a family heirloom magical item from some petitioners seeking to travel through the Moondoor. This item is fey in origin and cannot be identified in the mortal realm. The mercenary band cannot use the item, nor identify it either, and therefore are very frustrated about...

Mortals visit the feywild to tap into arcane powers (e.g., research, residuum, reagents), negotiate secret knowledge from the eladrin, seek revenge on evil fey, plunder magical artifacts, or thrill-seekers looking for extreme environments (e.g., rock climbing). See my answer question #10...

Thanks, Will. I've added a couple more links to the original Word document, including the post from Psikus I referenced above. How in the world I forgot that I have no idea, because it was one of the principle reasons for me running this adventure. I also updated the formatting on the second...

Well, it's strictly an opportunity attack, which says: "Interrupts Target’s Action: An opportunity action takes place before the target finishes its action. After the opportunity attack, the creature resumes its action. If the target is reduced to 0 hit points or fewer by the opportunity...

There's another thread on this exact same topic, albeit it was subsequently derailed for a discussion on how to DM. I recommend you simply read the first reply, which is amazingly similar to the first reply in this thread. ;)

Psikus has done most, if not all, of that. I plan to help, but first wanted to get this out there so that others can help answer all the questions I had. Hopefully, people will be interested enough to participate. :)
