Yeah I tend to send the Atk vs Ref or Fort against him if possible. Still they've decided to make a bit of an alteration (pillage a village of orks) so that lets me make a custom encounter...

I'm running a module at the moment so am only making minor adjustments to the 'script' so to speak.

Glad I'm not the only one wondering about such things!! Hopefully it might go a bit smoother on Tuesday.

It's just that for a lvl10 encounter it seemed not to be challenging at all..

Dimensional vortex, and from the wording I think it does use the attack roll. It's also 'when an enemy hits an ally' =(

As a DM I'm struggling with a players swordmage. He has really high defences, if something doesn't attack him it's screwed, if something does attack he interupts and teleports it to hit something else - the question is for this power does he wait until after I've rolled to hit or before? As it...

8ft high room? He won't be able to fit in his lance let alone him mounted on a steed.

Suggestion: remove horn?

4E/3E mishmash: Race: Half-Orc, Well I'm irish, and ok I don't drink or get in fights, or get angry much... ok I'm probably a fat elf or just a human! Class: probably an 'Expert' (scientist) or else a WIZARD HP 5 Resist: Insulin, Cold (10) Vulnerable Sugar, Heat (5) Alignment Neutral Good...

We tend to run it (in mine and other DMs games) that things incl creatures know if they are marked, especially with magical or divine ones - they are like a compulsions. The only time I tend to 'violate' marks is if a creature is reeeeely dumb/unaware (like swarm) or really angry (Thugg smash...

I didn't know about the pick feat for bonus damage vs larger targets... thanks guys a lot of food for thought.

Just wondering if some more experienced players (I tend to DM) could chime in - basically I'm wondering if the +2AC bonus and less damage is better since he's a defender and thus values AC anyway?

my d&d boardgames - too many painted minis. If we're talking books then all my 4EIf we're talking all games then my warhammer 40k - that's expensive!

Where did you get these minis?

My PCs seem to run a more 'first amongst equals' style although the swordmage defender seems to be the 'defacto' leader. (seeing as how he's at the front a lot of the time!)

In D&D 4E for example I see hp as a measure of 'tiredness'. Only until the last few HP, I see it as the character dodging, getting tired, brusied from absorbing blows on shields or parrying, or as a wizard 'shielding' damage or the like.

I use the DDI adventure tools - I'm doing a Red hand of doom conversion for paragon so to make say a hobgoblin adept (a weak-ish sorcerer) I get a hobgoblin, switch to artillery, level him up, and add some sorcery / wizardy powers (magic missile etc) I tend to copy and modify extensively rather...

I liked the undead book, it has a fair bit of crunch but a lot of fluff and ideas too.

I derped - both were supposed to be s16!

Aside from me thinking Anita is a fool peddling feminism, part of the issue of str stats in game is that it's not actually a measure of strength per se. It's more abstract - a str 16 female human fighter is probably not going to be as strong as a strength 16 male human fighter, its just that...
