    The Books: Last Minute changes?

    The article in which they mentioned the idea of the 20 level race also said that, while it's an idea they considered and played around with, it's an idea they also discarded. Yep. That's what Racial Feats are for. Half-Elves can choose both human and elf Racial Feats, so if you want to...

    I also have the books [merged] (info on upcomming Power sources and more)

    Thanks a bunch, Rechan. Noticed you didn't answer question #1, though. I take it that there is no Bastard Sword in 4E, then? :(

    I also have the books [merged] (info on upcomming Power sources and more)

    Couple of questions. 1) What are the stats for the Bastard Sword? 2) What's the fourth Paladin At-Will Power (We'v seen Bolstering Strike, Holy Strike, and Valint Strike. So what's the fourth and what does it do)? 3) What stat bonuses do PC Orcs get? 4) What stat bonuses do PC...

    Excerpt: Fallcrest

    The number's closer to 2.5% (which is kind of funny since, if you'd left out that space, you would've written 2.5% :) ).

    D&D 4E 4e spellbook questions

    If not in his spellbook, then where? One would think you have to write it down, so why not in the spellbook? Besides, it isn't strange for another character to have his Rituals written down in a book. Is it a 'Spellbook'? Probably not, as it doesn't allow him to substitute his Utility and Daily...

    GRZ 34 - Monster Roles Interview (Has new art, and various stat-boxes)

    Just thought I'd point out that we got confirmation that Marking does indeed give a -2 penalty to the marked target when not attacking the one who marked him. I mention this because there were a couple of cases in previews where it'd say that a target is marked, but you wouldn't get any actual...

    Info on the Wizard (Looked at the book today)

    So a 1st-Level Wizard, then, gets... 4 Cantrips, 2 At-Will Spells (or three if he's human), 1 Encounter Spell, two Daily Spells (although you can only use one per day), and three Rituals, for a grand total of 12 spells. Not bad. I definitely gotta play a Wizard first chance I get. I always got...

    For pregen runners, anyone using acid arrow over sleep?

    You're not the only one. The next two weeks can't go by fast enough.

    D&D 4E 4e Demo Party - Miami

    A little bit nuts, but I thought I'd ask anyway. Any chance one could use the Pre-Release Rules Compilation (in the stickied thread up top) to make their own character? ;)

    Are PCs expected to beat skill challenges?

    Let's see... The necessary skills are Arcana [DC 22], Religion [DC 22], and Heal [DC 18] (Endurance isn't used to complete it, just help anyone who fails Arcana or Religion by taking the hit for them). By third level, the following characters will have these bonuses: ARCANA +6 Half-Elf...

    Tiefling Warlord for KotS + Extra Skill Challenge

    Leader = Healer. For whatever reason they decided not to call the role Healer. But that's essentially what the Leader is. Someone who heals/buffs their allies and keeps them fighting. Yeah, but if you're going to have a pregen character, then surely you shouldn't leave out their role...

    Tiefling Warlord for KotS + Extra Skill Challenge

    Disappointing, as that's a pretty important detail to leave out. The main job of the Leader is to heal, and this guy doesn't actually start healing until Level 2, and even then only once per encounter. If it was an issue of space then they should've cut the multiclass feat and Scorching Burst...

    Tiefling Warlord for KotS + Extra Skill Challenge

    Agreed. It's starting to get ridiculous. How many of these things (preview articles, character sheets, etc) have been put out with errors? I really, REALLY hope the PHB isn't riddled with these same kinds of errors. :(

    Five Alignments?

    They worship beings called 'Chaos Gods', they're called 'Chaos Space Marines', they live in a place called the Eye of Terror, in which the laws of physics are non-existent, many of them are horribly mutated by the warping energies of that place... and yet as a military force they're more...

    D&D 4E Notes from the 4E Corebooks: Alignment, Monsters, Artifacts and More

    Sure. But then again, I haven't heard very many stories about Wights one way or the other. On the other hand, I have heard plenty of stories about vampires, and not a one of them involved a vampire slapping the experiences out of a guy. ;) Whatever the case, I'm just glad slam attacks and...

    D&D 4E Notes from the 4E Corebooks: Alignment, Monsters, Artifacts and More

    Well, none of that actually involves Dracula backhanding the guy or punching him. Besides, if you'd just been thrown into a wall and choked by a superhumanly strong vampire, you'd be stunned, too. That doesn't mean, though, that your lifeforce got sucked out or anything of the sort. And vampires...

    D&D 4E Notes from the 4E Corebooks: Alignment, Monsters, Artifacts and More

    That's not saying much, as anything is better then the 3E Vampire. ;) I still can't get over their level draining bitchslap. Where'd that come from?!?
