    D&D 4E Holy Water in 4e?

    Exactly. And that was precisely what I was aiming for.

    D&D 4E Holy Water in 4e?

    Technically, it doesn't say that the monster needs to take any damage for the vulnerability to kick in, just that the attack deals damage of the specified type. I can see that an argument can be made that doing 0 damage is not dealing damage, but in a strict mathematical way it is. So I think...

    D&D 4E Holy Water in 4e?

    I know that, but this minor action holy weapon just rubs me the wrong way. So throwing an axe is a standard action, but hurling a vial is a minor action? Why? Call me old-school, but throwing something - vial, axe, mug of ale, whatever - should be the same action. Also, I don't see why higher...

    D&D 4E Holy Water in 4e?

    It's a series of magic items (going from level 1 to level 26) that you can find in Divine Power. Personally, I don't care much for high level Holy Water. It's a useful thing for low-level adventurers, but high-level heroes should have better things to do with their actions in a fight against...

    Whatever happened to Necromancer Games?

    No, it's a visionary view. Copyright will die soon. 300 years is long enough.

    Whatever happened to Necromancer Games?

    It might be best for WotC and Hasbro, or at least they might think it is, but it's definitely not the best for D&D as a whole. I just loved they way that the OGL moved my favourite RPG away from a dying Copyright Regime. Now it seems it will die with it instead. That's just sad.

    That's strange. I just downloaded all three (cover, rules, and character sheet) without any problems. :confused:

    4E & Gygax

    It's so very simple to prove that Gary didn't write 4E. There are only three weapons listed as polearms in 4E Player's Handbook. Q.E.D.

    Versatile Spellbook - needlessly restricted?

    Yes, that's the problem I see as well. Prep encounter utilities all day long until the final fight. Then switch to daily utilities. But is it really a huge problem? There are a lot of ifs and buts with that. The adventuring day needs to be structured like a level of Super Mario. The player...

    Versatile Spellbook - needlessly restricted?

    Exactly my thinking. You can only swap out an unused daily. The "worst" I can see happening is that the wizard uses the slot for encounter spells all the way up to the final battle of the day and then swaps it for a nice daily. But I can live with that.

    Versatile Spellbook - needlessly restricted?

    So I found this neat magic item in Adventurer's Vault 2, Versatile Spellbook, and decided to let the party wizard find it. This is so useful - if it weren't for the last sentence... I can see that there is a theoretical opportunity for abuse (or maybe it's just additional flexibility?) without...

    Sending and Language

    Though my language, swedish, could certainly give them some competition in that area. Spårvagnskonduktörsuniformsjackedragkedja on you. :p

    Players dissatisfied with level of danger in 4e

    Fair enough, but RAW it's a rest, i.e. a short or extended rest. Which in effect means a short rest. I haven't seem anything written about any other intentions.

    Short rests... it's short rests...

    PHB3 In Hand...

    Any details on this? Just a rephrasing or is paragon multiclassing actually getting some love?

    This mentality needs to die

    Unless, of course, you have picked up PHB2 and read the glossary on page 223. That brings it back to stingy DM territory.
