    DM's Toolkit Program--NOW AVAILABLE!

    I was thinking about creating this same sorta thing, only with Excel (The only sorta programming language that I know), could you send me a beta as well so that I can make sure that I am not going to be duplicating work and that it would fit my concept. Thanks. notapc1@gmail.com

    Dynamic Excel "Wiesbaden Charactersheet" D&D (v1.11)

    Here is a bug I have found. Under the Arcane Initiate feat, you should be able to choose a wizard at-will power, but it doesn't let you. It also seems like this power should be added to the Powers sheet. Also, the Arcana skill should be granted under the Arcane Initiate feat, but it doesn't...

    Wizard Spellbook confusion

    I think you are right Waneta. That was the implication I got from it.

    Ancestral Pact (Heroic levels)

    When I first heard about the 4e warlock, I was really excited about the vestige pact because I thougt it would make a good ancestor worship style pact. Then it was left out. This is an excellent replacement. Very cool.

    Dynamic Excel "Wiesbaden Charactersheet" D&D (v1.11)

    I was playing with the sheet a little and found that when you set up your attacks on the attacks sheet, it won't allow you to not use an implement. As far as I know, implements are not required, they just add a bonus if magical. Setting the sheet up to reflect this would be good. Thanks. Edit...

    Why is secound wind not an encounter power?

    This is fine, but I think that I will be treating both as if they were. I will make power cards and everything. I like the power card book keeping dynamic better than checking boxes on a sheet.

    D&D 4E Halivar's 4E auto-calculating character sheet v.2.03 (OpenOffice, Excel & blank PDF)

    So here are my mods so far. I have incorporated a lot of ideas from other peoples work, and I rewrote my original mods to make it easier to customize the sheet for individual campaigns. There is an opening sheet that makes it easy to generate ability scores that uses some work done by EnWorld...

    D&D 4E Halivar's 4E auto-calculating character sheet v.2.03 (OpenOffice, Excel & blank PDF)

    Steal away Halivar. That is what I posted it for. This seems like a very fun collaboration. I figured that I would post in this thread so that you knew that my mods were for looting. I am currently working on a generic power card in excel. It will have drop down menus for all the keyworded...

    So what happened to arcane and divine characters?

    So far this is my only complaint about 4e. It feels incomplete. I really like what they have done with the math, with the rebalance of the classes, with just about everything. I just wish that there was a more complete set of special effects. They will come, and I will be much happier playing 4e...

    D&D 4E Halivar's 4E auto-calculating character sheet v.2.03 (OpenOffice, Excel & blank PDF)

    I have also created a racial pulldown menu and a class pulldown menu. Both will autocalculate defense boni and HP stuff, and the race pulldown menu adds the racial features into the blanks in the racial features box. It also adds in the dwarf and dragonborn HP/Healing Surge stuff to the right...

    D&D 4E Halivar's 4E auto-calculating character sheet v.2.03 (OpenOffice, Excel & blank PDF)

    So here is my contribution. If you change the first Misc box in the fort, reflex, and will defenses to race you could add these lines to that cell. Fort- =IF(B12="Human",1,0) Reflex- =IF(B12="Human",1,0) Will- =IF(OR(B12="Human",B12="Eladrin"),1,0) This will autocalculate the effect of...

    All Possible Ability Scores for 22 Points

    So after some thought, I think that the optimal arrays could be arranged into a few categories based on priorities. Deciding on the priorities of odd vs. even stats will have to be taken into account, but involves a lot of factors that are inherent to individual campaigns, so they will be...

    All Possible Ability Scores for 22 Points

    Seems like sword + Healing could be gotten with either paladin or warlord. Could be a good fit.

    All Possible Ability Scores for 22 Points

    Probably one of these. 18 14 11 10 10 8 18 14 10 10 10 9 The others were quite a bit lower in my evaluation. Unless you don't want any penalties. Then this one. 18 12 12 10 10 10

    All Possible Ability Scores for 22 Points

    Part of analyzing this data that has not been talked about is that fact that, for most characters, three of the stats won't matter most of the time. Since the defenses are the greater of two mods, then sorting the columns in decending order by stat1, stat2, and stat3 could give a better idea of...

    Problem with high level wizards....

    Probably if you want to preserve the feel of your character as best as possible, MCing wizard(warlock) will do it best. Cantrips, spellbooks, lessened inpact from pacts, etc... The thing is that all these classes do is give a suite of ablilities. Start with the one that is closest, and tweak...

    Problem with high level wizards....

    If you want a damage dealing arcane caster, why not go warlock or MC wizard(warlock) or warlock(wizard)? This is not the same game as 3.x, so using the exact same class to portray your character seems silly. If doing gobs of damage is that important to your character, then a little MC into...

    Sold through already

    Running out of physical books sure won't discourage acgquiring the pdfs. WotC should probably get on that market quickly (meaning sell legit pdfs). It seems that this would be a quicker tactic than printing/shipping physical books. But considering that they have already run out, and they...

    4E and RPG Theory (GNS)

    I wish I had the books so that I could participate in this thread in a meaningful way. As is stands, all I can do is debate the merits of GNS theory (which I enjoy, but ultimately I feel that GNS theory is completely inadequate for te task that it sets out for itself). I will check back in after...

    Eliminating the divine power source?

    I plan to do a "no gods" campaign. The divine characters are just squished into the arcane power source. I was sorta thinking about Wheel of Time here. Different "magical" characters have different "tallents". The fighting priest thing is sorta old. "Mysterious Force Behind All Things" is a good...
