Yep, although remember that the Paladin's Divine Challenge is pretty conditional. He'd have to have stayed adjacent to the target or have attacked and shifted/moved away before setting up the Divine Challenge mark to make the tactic work...otherwise, the Divine Challenge is removed at the end...

There was a nice, innocent time when vampires were evil and associated with rape. Now, they sparkle in the daylight and only feed on deer. And I'm so very happy they're delving into real world mythology, except that this real-world mythology is, to me, crazy crazy lame. In fact, vampirism as...

Time to break them the bad news. There can be only one mark on an enemy at any one time, and the Fighter's Mark != Paladin's Mark. You can still pull off some nifty stuff with mark-swapping, though.

Still waiting for my C4bal invitation, dang it. Unless it's like that one scene in Eyes Wide Shut, only with fatbeards. That'd be...well. That'd be horrible. Shouldn't that be "sentenced to 10 hours of RUNNING 3.5"? :angel:

One of those ideas being to invent a time machine, go back to late 2007, and tell yourself to get Half-Orcs included in the PHB1, right? Although if I'm typing this, I suppose that didn't happen. :( As an aside, I'm digging the term "C4bal."

But they're torn between their thirst and revulsion at their very existence, Rechan! Oh, to be a Dhampyr, eternally hated by kin on both sides! Puke. Here's an idea: Instead of a write-up for a race involving people with "vampiric blood," which is completely stupid, how about we just get a...

But with Guardian Might, they definitely can focus on an AC stat: Con or Wis. I suppose this would limit feat choice, but still...the Warden probably won't worry about AC ever. The extra HP seems to be a bit of breathing room just in case, for whatever random reason, they'd like to bump some...

Well, I'm sure he'll pop in and explain everything, so we don't have to make such assumptions. :) And in fairness, there is the possibility that many D&D players DO associate the Genasi with FR. I sure do. And now that Warforged have a full 4E treatment, they're looking to give the race a...

I don't think they've ever been exclusively associated with FR. I mean, you just answered your own rhetorical question, so you know this. 4E Genasi, however, are associated with FR because that's the book that introduced them to 4E. I would, however, love for WotC to start focusing on other...

I don't mean to sound snarky, but do you have evidence for this? I haven't seen ANY sort of consensus formed on 4E, other than it being "different."

The core three, Martial Power, and Adventurer's Vault. Martial Power rocks my world. If all the Powers series are like this one, I'd be infinitely happy.

Only in higher-level play. (badum-bing)

14 years come this summer. Cut my teeth on a Mage/Werewolf game, which is like learning to fly by being pushed off a cliff. I was only 11. Actual conversation - Me: So you're telling me I can...I can teleport behind that Black Spiral Dancer using my magic spheres? GM: Yes. Me: And I can...

[bangs gavel] So ordered! What's going to become a REAL headache is when the Bard is released in the PHB2. It has an at-will that marks a creature as if an ally had marked it themselves. It's good for ALL Defenders, but only Fighters will get all their free goodies from it. However, we...

Completely converted over to 4E, although I can play any system so long as I have the right people. :) This probably holds true for most people on ENworld, hatred for [insert edition here] not withstanding.

Eh, the problem was more that the monsters ONLY shifted, anyway, so the power saw very limited use. That's why retraining exists, thankfully. :D

My rogue used to have it. And then the DM ruled that shifting a square is different from moving a square, so all these enemies with abilities that shifted them meant the whole thing was useless. Never did get that power to work as intended, but it certainly didn't seem to be overpowered. I...

A friend of mine described it to me. Apparently you have a 1-100 rating in a skill/stat or whatever, and then you use d% as your standard roll and add it to the relevant thinger. Which makes no sense to me. It's like taking the Unknown Armies base mechanic and making it more complex...

Psionic powers will be known as Mind Bullets. I have this on good authority. Shadow powers...I dunno, I like the sound of Mysteries, but it's a bit of a mouthful. Hrm. Fades? Shapes? Costs, since you might have to make deals with the devil, so to speak? Nah, that's stupid. No wonder...

If it's an extended time period, we usually come up with a reason. If it's just once or so, we have another player play them. In 3.5, whoever had a martial/full-attack character would play the other PC, so that spellcasters didn't have to (they have enough crap to worry about). In 4E, to save...
