I got the short demo adventure yesterday with the title "Escape From Sembia" It is an introductory module. At first I thought it was the gameday adventure - I found out it wasn't. Does anyone know what it's from and why they are promoting FR in it ?

Armor of Agathys struck me less of a planned strategy kind of thing and more of a suprise tactic kind of thing. I didn't know if it's potential utility came into play often enough to be better than flames. The only other effect remotely like it is Minions of Malebolge, at lvl 19.

I will be playing a 1st level dwarven warlock in a party of : Rogue, Ranged Ranger, Paladin, Fighter and Wizard. I have a 20 Con and 14 int and I have gone the infernal route. I am looking for a little feedback from people who have experienced play with the first few levels of warlock. Judging...

many of the powers can be considered as an eldritch blast + effect. I believe Eldritch Rain is the very thing she spoke of. Many other powers seem to be Improved "flavored" blasts, especially for infernals.

Doesn't Armor of Agathys do all of that at 1st level without needing you to repeatedly get hit AND use two implements ?

My group was set to have a penalty imposed for sleeping in any armor - so I placed a quick call to customer service to see if the rule was accidentally left out. They Service rep was very nice and he told me that there are no rules that prohibit sleeping in armor. I countered with the 5...

I found that an ok path is the cleric's Divine oracle. All their features are nice, but their 16th level feature lets you throw two dice and take the highest whenever you use an attack vs. Will. The downside being that if you still miss, you are dazed for the next round. Still - this looks like...

We reasoned that simply having the stats alone for how long it takes to put on armor in combat could have indicated the thought at some point that it needed to be taken off to rest. Otherwise, the reasons to don your armor in a combat situation become much rarer - almost unnecessary. Like y'all...

The Divine Oracle lvl 20 power (p73) has been the wildest I've seen. On a miss, it rewinds time back to right before you used the power and lets you choose another action instead.

I appreciate that you actually backed up your dislikes with real reasons - but have you played it yet, or only read the PHB ?

This is great ! Is it possible to maybe ask if you can split this into separate sections for each of the three books - to make it a little easier to track ?

TRRW - why does the script not run immediately after use ?

It's not the guys who read things here that I worry about. I live in the south - the deeeep south and I have seen a few people that drive 1 hour+ to my FLGS from out in the boonies. After hearing their stories and how they have interpreted things in 3.5, I really realized that a lot of the...

I agree on the wording with you. I disagree on the idea that the wording is clear enough for every DM - or every group to interpret this the same. I believe there there is ambiguity there - how often is "If" checked ? Once ? The way this is worded could be interpreted to repeatedly check the...

you could circumvent that by having your weakest teammates punch you in the face to see your kobold and gobbo targets explode !

Rystil - I see what you are going for, but the PHB seems to not make a clear enough distinction on precise wording of powers. As I see it, whether the power says if or when has no bearing on the limit of times it may be activated. Many people will see an effect with a duration "until the end...

P 133 under "Frigid Darkness" it states that it gives combat advantage to all your enemies until end of your next turn. I am still learning the rules, but I believe it should grant combat advantage to all your allies until EONT. ALSO Family, there seems to be a lot of fluff in this thread...

Arizona : It's not the same as the warlock's curse. This is the at will attack for infernal pact warlocks. It is worded as follows : (damage omitted) Hit: X + mod fire damage. If you take damage before the end of your next turn, The target takes an extra X + mod amount of damage. By this, my...

To paraphrase the 1st lvl at will power - after using it, when you take damage before the end of your next turn, the target takes an extra amount of damage. Does this remember targets ? Is one target possible only ? The power says nothing about this. Consider this scenario - Badguys A, B &...

What about good 'ol NPC's, Followers and Henchmen ? What about just having one or two of them around ?
