To have an ally benefit from bonuses that you give twice, have them Ready an Action to attack after you have attacked (hit or miss). It will work like this: 1. Party Member 1's turn (PM1) 2. PM1 moves then readies an attack triggering off when you attack. 3. PM1's turn ends 4. yada yada 5...

The group I had for WitR was Dwarven Fighter using a Mordenkein, Elf Ranger (Bow), Drow Rogue (Hand crossbow, never went into melee), and a cleric (ranged, can't recall race). As a human Warlord, having three At-wills helped alot. It seemed like for every round in combat I was always making a...

My group uses the Hedge Wizards gloves (Mage Hand) to get through the Lightning Pillar room in Haunted Halls part 2 this weekend. Though technically I think the lever was supposed to require more force than Mage Hand can lift, so our DM may have let us get away with that one.

Zinovia, loved your breakdown of the ways to play a Warlord... especially the Jewish Grandmother =) See this is exactly the reason I chose to play a Tactical Warlord, so that I could tell people how to play (within reason of course =) Here is a story from my table at the Weekend in the Realms...

Are you allowing them to use the same skill multiple times? For this type of challenge, I would say that one they are only allowed to use one Athletics check as their whole swim through the pool. Or only allow one success with the same skill.

I found an applicable CS response to this on the wiki here: And yes, we all know that CS is not 100% reliable. However, baring any other evidence or response it is as close to an official answer as we are likely to get. Additionally, looking at the PHB pg 278, under "Different Types of...

First, I think it can be easy to confuse two related but different terms that I use when referring to the "look" of the cards. A Layout refers to how a full page of cards prints out. There are currently two Layouts. Portrait, which means the cards themselves are in a portrait Layout like...

Episode 86 of The Tome Show (podcast) has Eytan Bernstein on it. He is a freelancer that has worked for WotC on Arcane Powers and PHB2 (and others). In the interview on the show he talks about balancing powers a little bit. From memory, some of the things he mentions are: - (save end) effects...

Looks like the data import script missed those, I'll get it on our list to check and correct. Fixed this, thank you for the heads up. Don't worry about it, I don't consider it complaining at all. The only way we'll get these sort of things fixed is if people help point them out =)

The side box text has to entered manually. We are currently going through the classes and doing that now. I expect that the rest of these should be done in the next week (give or take a year =).

True, my Tact Master only 18 str though which frees up some points. Going Eladrin my help also with their bonuses to INT and DEX which would be your secondaries. Actually, with Commander's Strike and other powers that give your attack away, then I would say that Maximizing Str is not as...

IMO you drop shield completely for Warlord, pick up Spiked Chain Prof for now. Reach is key for a Warlord most of his Powers are melee weapon range. After's this months DDI becomes official, I would swap that for the new Whip multiclass, weilding one in the off-hand and a longsword in the main...

I think you left your ball over there.

You can download a -much- better index for the PHB here: Download the New 4e D&D PHB Index!

I use some labels that I found at Office Depot. Avery Print or Write Multi-Use Labels 4"x6" (fits one column in the book perfectly) 05454 S6496 Just google "Avery 05454" and you'll find them.

I personally like the new Whip Training multiclass from the gladiator article in this months Dragon. And off-handed reach weapon, with a +3 prof is very nice for a Warlord. Combine that with a longsword in your main hand, for Heavy Blade Opportunist, and that makes a pretty killer combo IMO.

I think the H & P modules have new items in them as well.

Sorry, you're right the change I was thinking about actually made it into the book before it got printed.

Huh? How are you getting a +16? +5 from your stat (+5 total) +3 from prof (+8 total) +2 from combat adv (+10 total) +2 from leader (+12 total) Even tossing in Action Surge, thats only +3 for +15 total.

There was a thread a few weeks back that had the errata formatted so that if you printed it out on 3x5 (or maybe it was 4x6) reusable labels you could just cut them out and stick them into your book over the old text. But yea you do need a printer for that to work. Some of the errata is very...
