    Will all spells be attacks?

    These aren't supposed to be non-combat magic, they're combat magic which isn't an attack. non-combat magic is rituals.

    Will all spells be attacks?

    not dial-up safe Also, if you go to the tiers article there's a description of when you get your powersm including utiliy powers. There's also a couple of martial utilities around, which aren't as impressive. We don't realy have any information about rituals yet though.

    Australia: Cheapest place to pre-order 4th ed books

    Actually, most places I've seen have the 4th ed books for around $40-$50(both Gamesparadise and milsims have the set for $120), that's hardly twice as much, that's like a $3 dollar hike per book, considering how much Aussie's usually get boned on game and book sales that's really good, it's only...

    I can't find anywhere that's even comparable to Amazon.

    Multiclassing via Feats. Thoughts?

    This quote is from some guy who was quickly reading through the book at a convention, considering the Wizards website talks about multiclassing instead of taking a paragon path I'd say that it's still possible there's more to it. A second level Fighter with skill training:Arcana and Scorching...

    Firefox 2 is known to have annoying memory problems, it's one of the largest problems people have with it.

    D&D 4E New 4e Info! GAMA Tradeshow Scoop

    I've always understood that to "cotton on" means to notice or understand, while to "cotten to" means take a liking to.

    I'm going to assume 16 class paths and 8 race paths.

    Excerpt: Paragon paths (merged)

    It lasts untill the encounter ends, or you mark someone else, whichever comes first. Just like the Paladin's mark. Why would you even think that? Of course you have to threaten them or whatever the 4e equivelent term is when they do it, that should be obvious, in fact threatening beyond...

    The extra action that (almost) never misses!

    You know, it's about time D&D started properly respecting the Power of Friendship, it is an important genre trope.

    Excerpt: Paragon paths (merged)

    Thing is, when they said that, they also said Paragon paths were good for two different classes, since several seem to be only for one build of one class, I think it's safe to say the Paths have changed a bit since then. I think I remember someone saying there was now a lot more of them, but I...

    Excerpt: Paragon paths (merged)

    I'm pretty sure this is wrong. Characters get half their level to attacks, defenses and skills (and possibly initiative), not to the base stat bonus itself, which is used unmodified for damage, healing surges and other things. The number in monster stats is the monster's untrained skill modifier.

    Excerpt: Paragon paths (merged)

    Well, all of the Stormwarden Mechanics say things like "You must be wielding two melee weapons." or "(main weapon and off-hand weapon), two attacks per target", and never mentions "blades", so it's probably (hopefully) just fluff.

    I believe most of the details of the D&D Rakshasa come from an epdisode of Kolchak the Night Stalker though. Not that I've gotten around to watching the episode myself, the series is very... 70s.

    They are. If you were to hold a knife in that position your knuckles would be facing the other way (for the stage left one) and your thumb would be at the back (for the stage right one). It looks awkward because it's actually attempting to depict an amusing fantasy/mythology note with actual...

    Excerpt: The Warlord

    From the Tiers article -Heroic "Since they rely on healing surges to regain lost hit points, heroic tier characters are likely to take an extended rest when surges get dangerously low." -Paragon "They also have ways to regain hit points beyond healing surges, including regeneration, so they...

    Excerpt: The Warlord

    The Warlord is a Str based class, Cha/Int are secondary abilities, there's no reason for the Warlod's atacks to be more than two, maybe three points behind the fighter, and often they'll only be the one point behind that Fighters get from their class.

    True, although as I read comics and have read through a bunch of threads going over D&D artwork over the years, I would consider this to be a minor fault, indeed when you're designing for D&D, I'd probably argue it's a positive thing. I will agree that relatively normal people are his forte...
