    To answer the Homogenous statement. I am referring to Wikipedia for the answer. Homogeneity means "being the same throughout". Homogeneity may also refer to: Homogeneous (mathematics), a variety of meanings In statistics homogeneity can refer to Homogeneity of variance: Homoscedasticity...

    Anyone else wonder why they didn't combine the 3.5 spell system and the 4th edition..

    This clearly defines the way I always played a wizard 3.X. Unfortunately from what I have seen about Wizards in 4E this is no longer the case. Amen brother on posting what a wizard was always about.

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Turning

    Yes and a rogue could sneak attack 9 targets at once. A wizard would do 60 damage to all targets in a 20' radius with one spell. And a fighter could bull rush a dragon. I fail to see your point.

    Question regarding half-elf parentage

    No but if you wanted you could consider giving him 60' Darkvision but at the cost of his normal bonus to Diplomacy. Your call but that should be a fair trade.

    D&D 4E 4e and 1 combat a day

    Has existed through all forms of D&D. Not just 1E.

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder overhaul suggestions, pt. 2

    Okay it sounds to me on the stat effect that what you are wanting to do is rather than have the people using the system to do the math you want the effects of such to be laid out directly. Lets say you lose 10 points of STR. Right now that means your STR Mod takes a -5 Hit. All effects take...

    What defines D&D ?

    Ultimately since we are defining D&D differently we have to consider are we mechanically defining it or are we defining the experience that is D&D. Mechanically I agree with PJ. Because right now 4E just isn't it. 3.X did deviate a great deal from 2E but it did still keep a majority of what...

    new gamers from the ranks of WoW types

    As I have seen it the current 4E system is directly targeted toward the MMO genre. It has been tailored in that way on purpose. If you read the book you can see how it directly emulates such a concept. Many will tell you it doesn't play that way, but that is only because you don't have a...

    Biggest 4E PHB complaint...

    This is correct. My original post was based on the artwork. My apologies for not specifying.

    Biggest 4E PHB complaint...

    I agree with you. But I would be carful or you will get flamed about druids being able to do too many jobs. System aside my problem is that the Tiefling is a direct cut and paste from World of Warcraft. If you don't believe me check it yourself. And people keep telling me that this game has...

    Very first thoughts after reading 4e PHB

    I think you missed the part where I stated that I would give it a shot. But that right now based on what I see isn't D&D. So instead you prefer a system that gives that same requirement to the base needs of the class? I gather that is what you are saying because that is what 4E did. It gave...

    Very first thoughts after reading 4e PHB

    I think you might have missed the part where they stated in the Pathfinder book that all of the rules in the system are directly based off the 3.5 PHB SRD. Also yeah some alterations would have to be done. But minor in comparison to 4E. I can imagine that $2000+ worth of books you might have...

    PHB Classes: What needs love?

    I think Rituals need to be fixed overall. The double negative of cost and time on many of them I feel is too great. The dual class effect system needs a overhaul. Seems to have been rushed. I think there should have been more spells available to wizards. Seems like they cut the list to near...

    Very first thoughts after reading 4e PHB

    I read through the 4E PHB and DMG. My truest opinion is this is not D&D. I have been playing the game for over 20 years and never did I think it would turn into what it is in 4E. It feels like they took all the ideas they had for classes. Poored them into a big pot. Stirred it up and then...

    How do you multiclass?

    So basically. You cannot say make a level 2 character. That has all the Ranger level 1 abilities and skills of that level, and Warlord level 1 with all the abilities and skills of that level?

    How do you multiclass?

    Let me refine the question. If I were to make a Ranger/Warlord. How would I do that? Do I give the abilities of both or what?
