OK, thanks.

Simple question: Is there any way to get the Paladin ability Lay on Hands through multiclassing? I know Soldier of the Faith gives Divine Challenge, but what about their other defining at-will?

How do you roleplay your Warlord powers? I'm interested in hearing how other players try to inspire and/or command their fellow teammates, since I'm sometimes at a loss for words when my turn comes up and I'd like to expand my "inspiring" vocabulary. Please specify each power before your...

I mostly agree with you, but I should point out that it's not entirely accurate to say that the risk of an extra failed save is the price paid to get a bonus. Quite frankly, they already paid that price by purchasing the feat/power/item, not to mention action, that gave them the extra save in...

Ahhhh... THERE'S the bit I was missing... :blush:

I'm not particularly a fan of Drake Clawstrike. Honestly, it seems worse than basic melee attacks in every way possible. Might it be more beneficial to have the feat give Dragonborn unarmed proficiency and count their claws as light blade melee weapons? I'm not sure how far you could go with...

I think it's not just the ranges, but the ranged properties that make weapons ranged. For example, I think you need a "Load (free or minor)" action for these; thrown weapons have the "(light or heavy) Thrown" property.

I have to agree with this. It took me a while to figure out exactly how best to use them, but I eventually started keeping all of my cards in a single pile, very close at hand so others don't mess with them. I also made an index card-sized "character sheet" to keep at the top of my pile, so it...

I actually designed a character card since I use power cards so much. I find it easier to have it at the front of my power card stack, and everything's really easy to see. It's more or less a work in progress; I only very recently made a second "page" to be printed on the back of a blank card or...

Took a quick peek, and 2 things stood out: 1) Should they actually have Blindsense? 2) I think you meant the shriek attack to target Will, not Wisdom. There was also a labeling error in the Ultrasonic Screech description. It should instead say, "You can use Ultrasonic Screech as an encounter...

Thanks for your testimony. I usually feel something very similar when we're playing, especially when flanking with our dagger rogue. Hammer and Anvil is by far one of my favorite powers already, especially if the rogue missed or wasn't able to attack on his turn. I know fully well that my hit...

Yes, as far as I am aware. And they could shield you from any effects dipping into your negative bloodied pool of hp.

My favorite "update" that I've noticed had to be the original omission of oil for lamps. To answer your question, I copy & paste the errata text and reformat each book's errata down to 1 page front and back and stick those pages in the front of each book. It works well enough, considering I'd...

PHB 277 lists all conditions. I'd suggest you bookmark this page, as you will refer to it a lot.

Not necessarily. I suppose we're getting to that point where we'd be talking about specific powers or class features for examples, but I'll leave that to other folks :p. Two things: 1) When looking at specific builds, very few characters need their suggested tertiary stat. It's usually just...

Heh. Actually, that was one of my complaints with the class, but that had more to do with 3.5 mechanics than anything else. 4.0 is a lot better at allowing secondary stats. Perhaps Wisdom con be kept/replaced as a stat modifying peripheral effects of powers? I don't play a Cleric, so I can't...

I was actually intrigued by the Archivist in 3.5, but turned off by its implementation. I played one very briefly. They essentially felt like nerfed Clerics. If you intend to differentiate them from Clerics, I think it will be important for you to generate a distinct list of powers that key off...

Am I the only one here who actually likes their Inspiring Warlord? It sounds like most of the complaints I hear cite the fact that Warlords essentially aren't strikers or controllers (and occasionally, defenders). I hear a lot of complaints about them not doing enough damage; well, is that...

Grab: If you are within one square of being adjacent (creatures with Threatening Reach may increase this distance accordingly), the enemy may attempt to grab you as a standard action. If this is successful, the enemy may move you to an adjacent square of its choice. From here, the enemy may also...

Our DM uses very little subtlety when presenting us with a skill challenge. Usually, a situation comes up and he says, "I'm going to treat this as a sklll challenge of complexity X. Your main skills will be _____." If it's a case where all of us will be participating, or where combat is...
