BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

-Better weapon mechanics, unerfed bow and shield. -No immunities and other absolutes. -VERY condensed spell list. -Better mechanic for stronger races, no LA. -No "powers" that take the place of skills, but "powers" that enhance skills. -No mechanical difference between "common" people and...

What about ranged attacks? Magical attacks? Touch attacks? Unarmed attacks? Bites? Traps? Trip attacks? What if a giant with a colossal great sword attacks you? Do you think your longsword should give you any defense against that tree-sized sword? I've practiced a little fencing and I know how...

I'm confused about this thread. What's the main idea here, to create a Base Defense Bonus or to create a mechanic so weapons give AC bonus?

Feelin' all alone without a friend, you know you feel like dyin' :(

Please, help me help you.

But I think the druid is the controller. :]

No. Read it again: "IME, most people". Most=many, with exceptions. Everyone=all, no exceptions. BTW, IME=real life experience, not the boards. Sorry for the confusion. That's what i've said. You want more RP in PHB because you think it's fun, and it is for you, certainly. But a book with...

This isn't hell, but you can see it from here. ;)

Oh please, just keep the PHB roleplaying-free! A page with roleplaying "tips" is one less page with precious rules. :) Much of roleplaying depends on the setting you play the game. Why waste lots of pages teaching us how to roleplay an Elf if in my setting elves don't care about woods? Just...

They are trying to appeal to the WoW fan base? One of the major changes in the "tone" of the game is making D&D less focused on magic items. I don't think that will appeal to the WoW players at all. Another change in the "tone" are encounters with more monsters. That will sure appeal to Diablo...

Wow is very D&D-fied, as much as possible, considering it's just a video game, bound by the limits of RAM, HD and some programmers. It's a limited, finite and repetitive game. D&D is a unbound, infinite, limitless, ever-changing game. When the lesser thing learns with the Greater thing, it...

I voted for Other: I use die rolls, but races that gain ability bonuses and penalties don't get them anymore, instead they roll 5d6 for the ability they receive +2 bonus to the score, or 6d6 if they get +4, and 3d6 fot abilities that get a penalty. So Elves roll 5d6(using the 3 best results)to...

Hell is repetition. -Stephen King

Maybe because you guys are game designers and after some time you stop seeing monsters, elfs, dwarves, undead, purple items, dungeons, quests and plots, etc and start seeing the game behind it, how it works in the deepest level, what it is really all about, like seeing the code of the Matrix...

I put a D2 barbarian for the Diablo 2 barbarian. A barbarian could be a martial controller with lot of shouts and using the intimidating skill a lot, to make enemies step back, have penalties on their attacks, attack each other in confusion, provoke AoOs etc. It may look a little silly, but who...

Hey that's a scoop! ;) And thanks for that Rodney, I'm feeling better now, not that I don't like SWSE skills, but as you said, D&D is a whole different monster to handle.

Good morning, everybody! Today, I can talk a little bit about the swordmage. http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?t=906386 1 minute late :)

Can you give us an example please?
