Probably someone turned off the other essential computer running DDI when they left for the weekend...

Think Character Builder is down. https://dnd-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000020623 Note the captcha is a bit wonky — just keep eliminating the street signs or whatever until they're all gone...

Not 100% clear, but think they're utility powers with a level. And you can select them when you select utility powers, not when you select Channel Divinity powers. Which is the implication from the 'Powers for Other Clerics' section.

Skill Challenges really are a fantastic tool for figuring out in advance how you want to engage your players across a long campaign. Especially if you throw in interesting failure options. "You beat the living daylights out of the Rogue to get him in front of the Duke. Bad news is the Thieves...

My description is either 3 days or exactly as fast as yours. Up to the DM. I'm just presenting options about how you could take a skill challenge that appears to be a 10 minute thing of fast talk the Duke and turn it into 16 hour of play with the skill challenge overlapping all 4 sessions. Or...

I'd only do something like that if you then reined in other stacking bonuses. i.e. something like this: All bonuses from source X are bonuses of type X. Have two feats that add a damage bonus? They're both feat bonuses. Have +3 Frost sword, +3 Cold Dragon Shard, Iron Armbands +4 and +2 damage...

This is literally the problematic early adventure 4e skill challenge in a nutshell. Skill challenges should be arranged in such a way that everyone in the party organically participates because they have incentives to do so and no one PC can dominate because there's nothing to dominate. Sure...

I strongly believe there's a computer that holds the dataset on it hooked up to the server and someone turned it off by mistake...

I finally hit the point of putting two of them on ignore. It was enough.

Sure I am. Because swinging up to the ogre might provoke an attack in fiction — it is her skill with swinging that makes everything work, not just the initial grab. And it is the danger of a CR8 Ogre vs say a CR1 Orc that requires that skill. A big failure on the acrobatics check might allow the...

You're not trying to make an acrobatics check against a stationary chandelier in that example. You're trying to make a combat move that happens to involve a chandelier while an at-level opponent could use that opportunity to bash your head in. The DC changing represents that the harder opponent...

I'm having issues also. Tried to submit a help ticket and their captcha won't receive data to allow it to be submitted. So maybe it is a weekend server problem that ought to get fixed tomorrow. Character Builder and DDI Compendium don't appear to break at the same time usually, so maybe they...
